Lest ye be smitten (should you vote for the wrong man...or woman)


Our Cleric?

"I thank God that on September 11th, we had a president who didn't wring his hands and wonder what America had done wrong to deserve this attack," he added. "I thank God we had a president who understood that America was attacked, not for what we had done wrong, but for what we did right."
- Rudy Giuliani at the Republican National Convention

"He is one of those men God and fate somehow lead to the fore in times of challenge,"
- New York Governor George Pataki at the Republican National Convention

Am I to ask the man/woman upstairs which of these two Skull and Bones Presidential candidates is the Real Hero for having served their country? What we need in a leader are two simple things: 1) a track record of an abundance of common sense and 2) an ego somewhat smaller than Oprah's. Uh-oh, now I'm getting into Michael Moore territory. Would Oprah buy a car for everybody who voted for her for President?
