I prefer my sky pre-tornado green . . .

Maybe I am being a simple minded OK Hick, but when you get right down to it there ain't much that difference between someone who writes a check to support terrorism and someone who actually carries it out, so that is what color my sky is.

And yes, until all the facts on the ground are known, I refuse to concede one way or the other. When is that time? I don't know but I will know it when it happens.

And with that low an opinion of people it is amazing you manage to function at all in normal America.

The American public, in general, gets it right. They got it right during Impeachment, and will get it right in the long run in what you consider to be an intolerable situation.

Didn't insert words into mouth, quoted your post and then made a comment . . .

Ahhh . . . the Bush stole the election bit is nice, and no we haven't found WMD YET, and I am willing to suspend passing judgment on that right now, and while nothing has unearthed on Saddam and the WTC, and probably won't, for the most part he stays on the spectrum pretty close to those who did blow the WTC up.

As someone with a foot in both worlds, the hyper informed and the rest of the country, I would always put my money on the rest of the country.

"My own personal experience tells me that the goddammed American public really isn't to be trusted."

Well, by all means suspend the right to vote, take the reins and have at it.

You know why the American public can be trusted? Because we are mostly a nation of decent human beings who, while taking some time to get the right thing done, get it done.

Considering yourself more enlightened and superior, speaking of looking down the nose, is I guess one way to cope with being on the minority side of opinion. You know a better way? Get off your ass and get busy.
