And how is the "Un-United States" today?

Time to change the country name yet? Fickle!!

There is good and bad in most folks, be it Kerry or Bush, tho Bush seems to have caused one massive load of damage than any President so far. It does not take any brain to see that Bush should never have even passed the "pre candidate" stage.

The problem may be related to "it's not always the best man that wins". If the system allows for the election of idiots - the fault lies with the people. It's not just about "politics" and bullshit about "conservatives", "democrats" and "liberals" - it is about the ability of a person to effectively conduct the biz of the country to the best advantage of all citizens, relate to other nations in an honorable way and not to lie on a daily basis with "slants".

This "Presidency" has totally fucked the repuation of the US and that will take a massive damage limitation exercise before it has any chance of recovery.

Kerry's war record is what it is - there was nothing to be "proud" of in Vietnam. At least he made the effort to serve as opposed to lying about serving. Tho what the hell a war record has to do with managing a country - I dunno :-)

Keep grinning and maybe there is a chance one day that the best man will win
