Dear (most of) middle America....

Recommended Posts

"I think a case could be made that ignorance played at least as big a role in the election's outcome as values. A recent survey by the Program on International Policy Attitudes at the University of Maryland found that nearly 70 percent of President Bush's supporters believe the U.S. has come up with "clear evidence" that Saddam Hussein was working closely with Al Qaeda. A third of the president's supporters believe weapons of mass destruction were found in Iraq. And more than a third believe that a substantial majority of world opinion supported the U.S.-led invasion.

This is scary. How do you make a rational political pitch to people who have put that part of their brain on hold? No wonder Bush won."

Poem of the week:

Political Capitalization

Political capitals bolster views

They give ideas flashy shoes

New and Improved on old shampoos

Enamel paint on cockatoos

When evil's Evil it includes

Medicare and the right to choose

Unpopular gods and sex taboos

Social security revenues

And anybody Wal-Mart sues

When fear of Terror's in the news

It's ample simply to accuse

To justify the troops and coups

With evidence on IOUs

Like bread for policy fondues

Renaming streets as Avenues

Steroids that the professionals use

Facts and figures just confuse

Capitalize and you can't lose

Yes! I finally figured out what is wrong with me! According to Bob Jones I'm a Christ hater. Thank's for clearing that up for me, Bob.

:finger:

Hey, it'd be neat if you replaced that smilie with a gif of Bush doing the same.
