Looks like a new catch phrase is making the rounds --- "shake the trees".   Clark, Rice, and now I see it here in the thread.

Interesting how these phrases come about---I wonder where this got started. Also--"horrific"---whatever happened to "horrible" and "terible"?

But, as to the thread about Nader--our "anonymous Guest" says "...don't vote for him". Great idea, but the problem is that every vote for him is a vote to keep this administration -by forfeit- in office.   

In the past few weeks I have had occasion to visit a few places that can be considered communities with a great lack of interest or knowledge of current events---gung ho headlines seem to turn them on and Bush is their man. A totally arbitrary conclusion on my part from my own completely amateur polling.

That is what frightens me.
