That's a side-issue of some significance, sure. The bigger issue is how
much bigger & freewheeling & overt does corporate purchase of the
presidential office have to get before citizens revolt & take back our
government?

The tool to take back the government is available. It's called an
election. No revolt is needed. The real question is how to get more
capable people as candidates, and how to get them elected?

You are of course assuming that the elections results are fair and
correct. As many "crazy" liberal Americans will tell you, they are not,
and more than a few "sane" conservative Washington State residents will
agree. Besides it's more American to throw a Tea Party.

Yup.

The
Tsunami hero, Judd Bush, may be next in the White House? Spend,
spend, spend.


I think you've confused Ashley Judd's bush with Jeb Bush. If you're
not confused, then hey, I'm with you, I'd vote for Judd's bush before
Jeb any day.

The candidate who could really get the 18-50 yo male demographic out to
vote is Juggs Bush.

Personally I wouldn't rule out the possibility of children
being a lot smarter than you give them credit. Certainly
I've known a few who could launch a more convincing
argument than "You're a baby!"


my 4.5 year old has been telling me "there are 3 ways to
change the government: the ballot box, the jury box & the ammo
box... i choose the ammo box"
he also listened carefully to all 3 debates & his opinion was
"Stupid Bush"
he's a very bright child :)

Bumper sticker version:

There are four boxes - soap, ballot, jury, and ammo. Use in that order.

most people using the saying tend to drop the 'soapbox' & i
don't know why. i also don't know where the kid heard it in
the first place... was it on one of the NPR morning shows? he
does listen to NPR on the way to preschool.

You hit the nail right on the head. What the Dems need is another
Paul Tsongas.

Meaning that if you dont get what you want, then force your will on
others any way you can. Sounds like something a 4.5 year old would
think of.

Go ahead and single out Bush as your personal anti-christ, but he's no
worse then the others.


I don't know -- they hired Tony Orlando. I guess he needs the work.

True, but it also sounds like George W. Bush. Not a coincidence, I think.

Now they're playing dirty. That's sure to keep everyone away, both
liberal and conservative.

Maybe Bush is sending a message? "Knock three times on the ceiling if
you want me....."

Now there's a reason to have voted for him!
