Reply #7: Okay, repentance is the first step

[gratuitous]

Followed by an attempt to undo or ameliorate the harm you caused, and a resolve not to do it again. Those are the principles, now what concrete actions are you, repentant voter for Bush, going to take to repair some of the damage your choice inflicted on the country? And do you plan to vote Republican again?

Otherwise, all the wailing and gnashing of teeth is just so much window dressing, and not to be taken seriously.
