Well, for one thing, you're trying to convey the idea that there is no difference whatsoever between the Republicans and the Democrats; Bush and Kerry (or anyone else the Democrats might care to run, perhaps?) are philosophically and politically joined at the hip. No sale, GUEST.

You seem pretty vociferous about trashing Kerry. I'm not real fond of him myself, but at this point, he's the best we've got who actually has a chance to win. And I may be "Henny Penny" as you seem to think, but I am one of those who is dead set on getting Bush and his Merry Men (rob from the poor and give to the rich) out of office. Once Kerry is in, it's a matter of leaning on him. And I'm damned sure he's more receptive to progessive ideas than Bush ever thought of being. It does make a difference, whether you think so or not.

But then, I'm not at all sure that you're coming from where you say you are.
