We got an "I like Ike" bumper sticker in the mail so I stuck it on the family car. What I didn't know was Pop was refused endorsement by the Republicans for reelection two nights before, so he was pissed. He ran as an independent and won handily.

No, but the liberals have.
That's a pretty broad brush.

"Gathering a consensus"....delightful. Maybe he'd try to "conduct a dialog" or "raise conciousness", too. Clearly not CinC material...and to my shame I was willing to overlook that. Never again.
Yes "gathering a consensus", isn't that what the Congress is for......advice and consent?

I seem to recall Gore was on the payroll when the script-writing was going on in the 90's.
Not of The New American Century.

Of Carter, Clinton, Gore and Kerry, I wouldn't want to have seen any of that lot at the helm on 9/11.
Because they wouldn't have driven the bad guys out of Afghanistan, back to Pakistan....temporarily?
Because they wouldn't have gotten us into this Iraq fiasco?
Because they wouldn't have pissed off half the world?
Because they wouldn't have swiss cheesed the Constitution?
Because they wouldn't have secured our borders?

At least Bill doing Monica was consentual, W doing me, is not.
Nixon and Bush piss me off the most, because I voted for both (once) and I feel personally betrayed.
