Sorry, my # 11 was meant for you.

I like Archer alot, but Don Evans is a great guy...can't get much closer to the President either. There can be no doubt about whose policies would be being implemented with Mr. Evans.

But Parsky would certainly be a highly unpopular choice throughout the GOP...he has hardly made himself dear to our friends in CA.

Ah... okay. Parsky...I knew that name sounded familiar. Formerly a big shot in California's "Republican" party? A real "moderate" scumbag who even supported liberal Democrat Richard Riordan's Republican primary campaign? The Parsky who wants to turn California's Republican party into a spineless liberal swill? That Parsky?

Please, Dubya - - keep Parsky in California where he belongs.

....I fear that the next tax-cut round -- surely we should continue to work toward a system where individuals owe no more than a third of their income to Uncle Sam -- will be far more difficult. A blessing and curse of the Bush tax-cut plan is that it will remove a significant number of middle-income Americans from the income-tax rolls altogether. As a result, the percentage of voters who have federal income-tax liability in the coming years will fall well below 65%. It may become nearly impossible, politically, in the not-too-distant future to adjust income taxes downward....
