Looks like you folks are caught between a rock and a reef. Either way you
may well end up with a candidate unable to effectively govern the country in
an intelligent manner. It's amazing that both Bush & Kerry could engineer
their own loss of reputation and honour in such short order. From what I've
seen on this side of the border, they are both embarrassments to the USA.

Either way Joe..... 22 days will be like a heartbeat compared to the amount
of time the USA will endure to extricate themselves from this quagmire of
poor strategy and the accompanying loss of global respect. Your enemy has
effectively forced you erect a big fence around yourselves as a containment
measure and your paranoia is distancing you from your allies. Kinda like a
Possum treein' a Coonhound!

It reminds me of a kid I knew that wanted to destroy a wasp nest. We tried
to warn him not to do that.... and suffered from his actions as well. He
didn't think that through either and the result was oddly similar to what
I'm seeing happening to you folks.

Bush got you into this mess..... It happened on his watch.... it's up to
him to get you out.!!!

Best of Luck!
