Thanks for the kind words.

I'm mostly sad that the U.S. is represented by such people. I tend to zero in on Cheney and Rice because their betrayals seem more distinct, but I would admit that the entire administration could be accused of many of the same things.

My side lost last November. In a way, I'm still pouting over it -- not because I insist that tings always go my way, but because it was a lost chance. I don't believe the nation would be discussing Harriet Miers' qualifications if the Kerry-Edwards ticket had won.

And Condi would be sent packing back to California and Alabama instead of promoted to run the State Department.

Nice to bump into you on DU, and let's hang in there until the next elections (or impeachment proceedings!).
