"Because of the smoke and fire of the abortion issue, it is probably all anybody will talk about, but there is much more at stake," says Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform..."The New York Times understands sex," he added. "It doesn't understand money."

The corruption and incompetence of this administration will be enough to eventually kick the bastards out, but the corporate masters will still be served. They know the free ride is almost over so they're milking it for what they can while it lasts. In fact they will even welcome a breath of semi-competent and responsible govt leadership by '06 or '08.

People need to be reminded what things were like back in the Gilded Age when corporations ran free. Its possible they have even more power today. They will consume themselves with their greed and take all the rest of us with them if don't get change soon. Let's WAKE UP!
