I don't believe that GWB has done either of those things, Ebbie.

The Mainstream American lifestyle did.

GWB is unable to tell us the lies we Americans want to hear... and are used to hearing. Are you sure that inability is 'stupid and mean'... maybe it's kind, truthful and ingenuous.

I think we are in a 'time of transition'... for a much needed reallocation of our energies and resources...
