Congratulations to the Dems (I aint no Dem either).

Congratulations?

"Getting people to vote for moderates, in order to put extremists in
power, may be the newest and biggest voter fraud." --Thomas Sowell


Sowell? Sheesh. A gasbag.

I wish your party well Harry.

Note the baseline you are inheriting: as of today: A 4.4% unemployment rate
(I
believe that is the lowest in over a decade), record stock market levels,
gasoline around $2/gallon and a booming economy. Most
importantly..........no terrorist attacks on US soil since 9-11.

I hope your party succeeds in improving all of these conditions. The ball
is soon in your court. :-)

This afternoon I listened to Diane Feinstein being interviewed on MSNBC. I
have to paraphrase her remarks, but basically she said:

1. A date should be set for the withdrawral of troops from Iraq, even if
Iraq's forces aren't ready to take over for themselves.

2. The concept of military chain of command should be ignored or eliminated
by allowing senior military officers on active duty to publically give their
personal opinions of US policy and it's effectiveness. They should also be
able to report directly to the President, rather going through a chain of
command.

Hmmmm..... not a good sign of things to come, I think.

Ok. I hereby vow to make an earnest attempt to get off the politics ......
for about 2 years.

Arguing politics is fun, even when it is OT. I admit, I have broken my
promise not to do so but I'll try to resist.

It's OT but this is usenet. As long as the main focus of the
majority of one's posts are boating related, then it
shouldn't be a problem.

The problem is caused by the people (and we have seen who
most of them are) who rarely or never post about boats and
who constantly try to start flame wars. It doesn't matter if
their chosen cyber-cudgel is politics or spaghetti.

Just don't be one of "those" people!

Dual hat the Chairman of the JCS? Make him the SecDef also? I wonder if
they'll raise his pay.
