It hasn't helped us in the past. We haven't learned a god-damned thing from these exercises...not a god-damned thing. Tomorrow when we arise, there will be floods on the plains, snow in the mountains, and a southwestern type heatwave in the NE and in June no less. Fuel costs and the costs of all products are making it difficult for people to meet basic needs. Mountains of credit debt throughout the nation. Foreclosures are still occurring at record rates. Unemployment is rising. Wars are still waging and hunger and disease are found everywhere. World peace seems like eons away. The legacies of Carter, Reagan, pick a Bush, and Clinton (oh, yeah, don't forget Nixon especially if you happen to be Pat Buchanan) and defending or denigrating said legacies should be the very last thing we are concerned with at the moment. Let's get in the present. The here and now. The great state of "Is." Let's get a president elected on the current state of the nation and the world because the future just around the bend is not looking bright and promising if the current state of affairs is perpetuated. Engaging in tit for tat exchanges with McCain and his herd of dinosaurs of the perceived glories or dishonors of past administrations is counterproductive. Every SOB that brings up anything beyond the past 7 years should be cut of with a resounding "What has that to do with now?" We need problem solving that fits this century and to look forward. We have wars to end and an economy to turn around.
I am only concerned with one candidate now. The one that is still standing. Let's face forward and move on.
Now get with it. We have work to do.
