Grow up and read history, you're obviously lacking in that area.

When Timothy Leary said "Turn on, tune in, drop out" you obviously took him seriously, but you forgot to drop back "in".

I know enough history to know that what you in your bitterness fail to realize is that you were a minority in your own generation. It wasn't just you against the establishment. Most of your generation was the establishment as well.

And most of them, like Asherman, grew up, let go of the hate, and got on with their lives.

You continue to wallow in it.

Sierra Song- They will fulminate and name call and hurl imprecations. The reason is simple. They are out of power and can't stand it. Bill Clinton's blunders lost the House and Senate to the GOP and they never regained it, except for a few months when a renegade Senator caused a Senate tie up.

The defining mantra of the left wing is -Count the dead and wounded and get a clue. Most of them do not know that we gave a better life to Millions of People when we won World War II. The USA lost 292.000 soldiers in that war. When it was over, the people of the US did not spend a great deal of time "counting them" They honored them and prayed for them.

Some of the left wing, Sierra Song, are actually happy when some of our brave military are killed in Iraq. Anything to denigrate President Bush!!!

Echoing sentiments expressed so well by others:

Bush-bashing is Priority #1 here.

Confirmed bashers will never acknowledge it, much less get over it.

So then you'll be cool with President McCain?

At least the "intellectuals" won't miss a beat with
their Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes . McCain graduated 894 out of 899 at Annapolis.

Though a number of us hope to see Sen. McCain at the head of the GOP ticket, that won't be decided for yet awhile. The Senator is only one of a relatively large cohort of promising candidates, and its a long time before the Convention. On the other hand, I'm confident that we will field a strong ticket and that our platform will have wide appeal with the Electorate.

Who will the lead the Democrats? Hillary? Bring her on and the GOP can probably win running Richard Nixon's ghost. How about another try with American Aristocracy? Senator Kennedy, or scion of some other Mainline, Brahmin family should be able to inspire the masses of American voters. How about Governor Richardson from New Mexico, he'd love to run.

I'd still like to see Wesley Clark run. He just speaks a lot of common sense every time he opens his mouth.

Though I'm not a McCain supporter, I'd rather see him than pretty much any other Republican, which is why I think he'll get the nod - there are lots of dems and indys who feel the way I do, and it'll come out when the election time comes around.

Ash- I hope you are correct about Hillary. I just finished reading Norman Podhoretz' new book--Can She Be Stopped?--about Hillary Rodham Clinton. At the end of the book, Podhoretz touts Giuliani as one of the few who can beat Hillary. Podhoretz covers many bases but one of his key points is that the Republicans must expect, even given Hillary's reputed high negative ratings, that she will gain everyone of the 49 Million votes garnered by Kerry in 2004 and then some.

You may have read the news this morning with regard to Senator Burns in Montana. He beat off a challenge handily even though some tried desperately to connect him to the Abramoff scandal. A Republican, Mr. Bilray ,won an election to replace the disgraced former House member, Mr. Cunninham.


It appears, Ash, that the people in Montana and California don't read the New York Times and the Washington Post!!!

I'm sure she'll get the Marxist vote, and do well with political minded celebrities in New York and Los Angeles. If the Democrats put her on the ticket, they may as well concede the election. How about Hillary and Fonda? Now there's a dream team.

Actually, I think the Democrats could do a whole lot worse than to renominate Bill Clinton. He's an attractive candidate, and he has largely rehabilitated himself I think with the Electorate. Bill Clinton's personal friendship with the Senior Bush and his work for "good causes" would play well in the heartland. Bill Clinton's albotross would be his wife, and he's never shown the least willingness to gag her.

Gore in the backup position worked out reasonably well. I think folks are a little bit afraid that Gore would overthink everything, and forestall decisions that need to be made ASAP.

I think that the Gore/Obama ticket would probably be the best ticket that the Democrats could present. Gore, who has built his credentials on his comprehensive knowledge of Global Warming would gain the votes of the millions of people who worry each day about an Apocalpytic melting of the earth in our lifetime. Senator Obama, a gifted orator, who, one must remember,was the President of the Harvard Law Review( no mean feat) would gain at least 98% of the African-American vote--this would be a bit higher than the 92% that Kerry garnered. But the attractive Senator Obama would have to give the rest of America assurances that his time, as a child, in a school which taught Muslim values- A school for Muslims- would not fatally color his perspectives on our problems in the Middle East.
