  • The Bush Administration has no desire to change.

    They assume that it is only American to vote Republican, and look what it did in at least six years of the GOP monopolizing the entire federal government!

  • DEAR TOM:

    My admiration for the well-written article. Look at the kind of damage an administration can do to 200 years of democracy in just eight short years.

    Probably we will pay more attention this time and think more seriously about electing just a beer-drinking buddy. This crowd didn't work out to well.
