"I earned capital in the campaign, political capital, and now I intend to spend it". "I'll reach out to everyone who shares our goals". These two comments were made by G. Dubbya today, a little over 24 hours after Kerry conceded and our once-again boy president stated he would try to win over those who had voted for his opponent. Hmmm...Not only do these statements reek of arrogance, but the message seems to be "My way or the highway", and not one of someone who should understand that roughly half of this country disagrees massively with his agenda. Maybe the big 'G' is smarter than I've given him credit for as he certainly seems to know he's got us by the short hairs...Mandate this Dubbya!
NPR reported today that an independent international news group had taken it's own poll, the results of which are: If the world's population had been allowed to vote in our recent presidential election, Dubbya would have garnered around 26%, and Kerry would have gotten somewhere between 70-72%. If you are human Dubbya, then you should be in possession of a functioning brain. May I suggest you use it and start paying attention, or does that require one to have a functioning heart also?
