Why should George change, he's been petulant and bull headed since he's been in office? Okay, he'll be more petulant and bull headed.

Oh, and fvck you, Santorum.

One thing I do respect about Santorum (and it truly is a limited list) is that he stuck by what he believes in and who he believes in even when he knew it was costing him the election. Rather than what most of us got (politicians who's views adjust to get more votes) his constituents got a person who puts his views out and they got to decide if they liked them or not. No guessing what he really thinks is required.

It's useless- you will excuse anyone on your "side" no matter their offense- yet stomp and yell for the other "side" to pay and pay for any infraction.

My emotional disgust at some of you is too much for me- it makes me sick. I'll just side in with Leo- he has the best points.

I challenge you to find an example of me excusing any politician's bad behaviour.

Then perhaps you are not included in the "some of you" statement.

I don't expect a non emotional response from you but I am going to venture a guess that you don't like the Clinton/Lewenski comments?

How about comments about how the election was rigged? How about how the Bush family acts like they are American Royalty? How are his daughters excused from duty?

And, finally, how about some emotional disgust with all of the body bags being sent back here from Iraq. Those bags hold our people, our fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers.

That is disgusting to me. And, your constant remarks about Dems and how you can't imagine them keeping their word, etc. etc. That is so, ah, narrow minded? Democrat is a political stance, and, if you knew some who lied or whatever, that doesn't mean every single Dem does.

You see, that is where I, as a Dem, differ from you, a Republican. I do not lump people together and then insult them all, of course, all the while presuming that I am better.

Which is what a lot of your posts do.

Thought I'd point that out because I just don't think you get that.

I see you came out here and had a great time, people welcomed you and were eager to meet you. People are people. This constant knocking of 'dems' is really getting old. I know this is a political time but I think enough is enough.

Just my .05c

And a freakin' good morning.
