Well, just let me echo Ocean's opinion without having to give backup or explanation why, and maybe taking a little liberty with context along the way...it would be the same thing. By the way...I don't like Ashcroft but I don't think he is any better or worse than was Reno. I am a Libertarian, not a Republican, but given the lack of organization by the Libertarian party, Republicans are by far the better choice.

Ocean, I wasn't attacking you, I was attacking the mentality you perpetuate. The government can't make your life better, but it sure the heck can make it worse...that is why it is my mission is to keep Bush in the White House during the 2004 election. Any of the current potential Democratic candidates would drive this country into ruin, and I guarantee you that they could give less of a Best if kept off the board about your pain than anyone else. All they want is power at your expense, and mine. Why are they panicking now? Because the economy is improving, investments are doing better, and people are going back to work. That is why they pimp the poor, the elderly, and minorities. They've not done one iota to further the cause of any class of these individuals, and have only made their lot in life worse AND more dependent on the government teat.
