John Hardly and Larry K - well put and truthful but it wont play here.
I don't understand the hatred for GWB. I am not a 100% supporter of his, Immigration, and spending have no control.

I have had, maybe, 10 converstions with several friends in the South, 2 from NOLA, and they mirror what you two are saying.

When so many here get their info from the Daily Kos, Moveon.org, Buzzflash, etc., what do we expect. While I am a semi conservative, two of the 4 newspapers I scan early in the morning are the NY Yimes and the Washington Post. Wall St. Journal and Nation review also. I have heard it referred to as 'Balance'. When people only quote the "daily kos", what are we to expect?
