I wouldn't usually bother posting that, but I am afraid many folks
think Bush has a very good chance of being re-elected. I hope that is
not true. Articles and viewpoints like this help me to wake up
tomorrow morning with a brighter outlook.

I have never felt this stongly about any election.

And I am sorry, Wilko, but Kerry will not pull us out of Iraq
overnight. Far as I can tell, we will be there for a while.

I know, I know... but one can always hope...
I just hope that he isn't as dumb as Bush when it comes to alienating
the world and turning the U.S. into a nation under terror. Every time I
watch U.S. news (whether it be NBC, CNN or CBS), I wonder why people are
being constantly being made afraid with messages from the government and
media. It must be that the only way the U.S. government can get away
with unconstitutional limitations or individual's freedom is by saying
that it's necessary because of the constant threats.

I know folks who are ready to move to Canada! I only hope that one
day I can return to Europe for a visit without being ashamed of being
an American.

Dan, you're okay, and so are many, if not most, of your countrymen.

Unfortunately, there is a considerable amount of people who won't think
for themselves, who will believe everything their media or their
government tells them. If that minority is vocal enough, it might sound
like they're talking for the entire nation.

Anyway, if you want to hop over to Europe and you'll find yourself near
Eindhoven, you're welcome to stay at my house. (I'll even protect you
from the hordes or angry Europeans trying to shred you and your fellow
Americans to ribbons! ;-) )
