Today's thoughts

It is unfortunate that 60 minutes opened up this issue about Bush's military service. It is not important. It is a fact that any children of rich well connected families were able to avoid the war in Vietnam. Kerry served there . I don't know the status of his family.
It is all not important compared to the real issues in this election.
It should be clear to anyone that reads the news or watches TV (even Fox) , that the decision to go to war in Iraq was ( to put it gently) NOT WELL THOUGHT OUT. Lots of people have DIED. The country of Iraq is a mess, with no hope of peace soon, and as it turns out Hussein was no threat to anyone but the people of Iraq . And NOTE! This situation exists in lots of countries where a Dictator is in power. Just look at Africa.
So there are only two issues in this election. The War, and the Economy. What can you do when you have made a 100 billion dollars 1000 lives mistake. Well George Bush smiles for thcamera and says the prospects are good good good give me 4 more years . Chaney lies about everything with vigor. Truthfully Chaney is the power behind the throne, and his agenda is about money for his circule and perhaps control of all government spending.

On the other hand, Kerry is a, better than the incumbent choice.
To be clear I would vote for Fidel Castro as president before I would want 4 more years of Bush.
At least Castro is an intelligent man
