I don't have much confidence that the Bush administration wants things to turn out well, and I don't have much confidence that Congress can make things turn out well. I hope that most Americans want to do the right thing, but I think it is damnably hard to know what that is.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00372790238744903272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5506451.post-83580711433425151472007-07-23T22:02:00.000-07:002007-07-23T22:02:00.000-07:00If bergy boy is such a big man, why doesn't he eve...If bergy boy is such a big man, why doesn't he ever post here?!
