I have to agree with one point. The "war on terror" doesn't really exist. One, it's not a war until Congress declares it as such, and two, like the "war on poverty", the "war on drugs", etc., they're fighting an idea, a nebulous concept that in and of itself can never be wholly defeated. There's no one to surrender, no objective to attain to "win". In no way do I say this to besmirch our brave military who are fighting. Their leadership, if it can be called that, sucks, though.

The only thing I can see in this that's a problem is that the people to whom he was talking were actually encouraged, thinking they had found a kindred spirit, and unfortunately, yes, they do vote. It seemed like the interviewer was trying to educate them, but they just weren't getting it.

Does the word DUH! occur to anyone else out there?

Blessings,
B
