The only reason to even consider cutting Bush some slack, is competence. Not his; his cabinet's. Bush has assembled and extremely capable cabinet. Over time this cabinet could end up giving him a present of a great Presidency.

If he runs this country into the ground and destroys the Constitution in the process, it's a moot point.

Losing control of Congress to the Democrats is risky, but I think it poses less risk than the path we are on.

I'm shocked to hear myself say this, but I'd actually prefer a democrat congress with Bush in the WH. There's got to be some balance. If playing the race card to stop implementation of a national ID or roadblocks or federal security chiefs everywhere works, then let's play that baby. We are literally getting into which is the lesser of two evils.

Putting aside 9/11, but not the resulting legislation, I can honestly say we are worse off than we were a year ago. We are a bit less freer than we were (and Lord help us if a liberal gets into office with the PATRIOT ACT still in effect). Government has grown bigger for no discernable reason. We gave billions to the airline industry, which was in trouble long before 9/11. We have sold the Israeli's out practically, we are cutting terrorists (Hamas/PLO/Saudis) a helluva lot of slack. We are using the Drugs=Terrorism ads to take the focus off of the fact that much of the money for terrorism is flowing out of Saudi Arabia, and not from some crackhead passed out on a park bench. We are welcoming the illegal aliens with open arms.

Is there a light at the end of the tunnel?

I don't know for sure, but we are looking for it, here and here
