That's what cracks me up. Both political philosophies, Left and Right,
support "empowering people". In theory, the Right empowers by minimizing
government interference. allowing people to aspire to whatever level of
interest, business and financial success they desire, based on their
individual level of motivation.

The Left "empowers" by attempting to level the playing field, demanding
equal or similar benefits, rewards and lifestyle for everyone by
penalizing
those with more than average ambition.

I can put it even simpler - the Right believes in individual wealth as
part of the collective and the Left believes in the collective via
redistribution of individual wealth.

And at this point I feel a rant coming on and I'm just not in the mood
at the moment. :)

The last 8 years, the right has not beleived in empowering the people. They
have been much like the Left. Spend, spend, spend. Just different
programs.

It really was hard to tell the difference between one drunken sailor and
another. And don't get me started on Ashcroft and Rumsfield.
