101. Ah, sweet reason and realism!
One of the reasons I admire you. :-)

Yeah, this is always a game of getting whatever little piece of turf we can, and occupying it as long as possible.

I think what motivates me to post things like this is that over the years, I have seen this pattern of well-meaning and dedicated DUers "searching for the Holy Grail of bringing down Bush". They latch onto whatever scandal or evidence of wrongdoing that they can, putting all their faith into "THIS IS THE ONE!".

"THE WORM IS TURNING!"
"DRIP DRIP DRIP!"
"ANY DAY NOW"
"BUSH IS TOAST"

...and on and on... it's kind of sad and amusing... but more sad, when you ponder what is at stake.
