Unless Thompson or Tancredo win the Republican nomination, I can't see myself voting.

If Hillery is elected, if scores of corrupt, do-nothing Republican politicians lose their jobs and their dignity, then maybe they'll grow some a) ethics and b) backbone for the next elections.

I guess we'll have to see. But so far, your strategy hasn't gotten us anything. After all, we've been saddled with Jorge Busho for going on eight years. Not much of an alternative.

You say the demonRats are worse? How so? Condi Rice is pro choice. Cheney is pro homosexual. Bush is pro criminal immigration.

I have a hard time seeing the point to all this. Cause no matter how I vote (post Reagan era) it's all been bad.

Lou, I agree with much of what you’ve said. But if you’ll just think through some specifics, I’ll think you’ll be more open to the point I’m making.

Don’t you think the Rats, if their candidate (whoever it is) wins the presidency, would appoint someone like John Murtha as Secretary of Defense? Don’t you think they’d have to do something like that to satisfy their anti-war base? That, indeed, they’d view their election as a mandate to go Cindy Sheehan on the nation?

Now, do you see any serious Republican candidate who would, or any way the Republican Party as a whole, would go that route? I mean, THAT anti-military, anti-war, anti-U.S. and so on?

Let’s say that the Rats would make John Murtha the Secretary of Defense and the Republicans would make Tommy Franks? Would you see that as significant for the good of the country?

What if the Rats made Bill Clinton Ambassador to the U.N. and the Republicans made Newt Gingrich? Would you see that as significant?
