Isn't this called "Fascism"?
"You don't get everything you want. A dictatorship would be a lot easier." Describing what it's like to be governor of Texas.
(Governing Magazine 7/98)

-- From Paul Begala's "Is Our Children Learning?"

"I told all four that there are going to be some times where we don't agree with each other, but that's OK. If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator," Bush joked.

-- CNN.com, December 18, 2000

"A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it, " said.

1. These dictator quotes
yet he opposed a "dangerous dictator" from Iraq ? You'd think they would be best buds. Oh yeah, Saddam had the oil, time to drop some bombs.

2. I Guess This Is What The Customer Wants
Sorry, that popular vote really gets me. It's a real slap and even if we can make votes materialize that make it closer or even tie it, it's still depressing to know that so many people are so condoning of this regime, and how this regime will now interpret it as a huge mandate.

I'll say I was ready to invest in some new businesses but all those plans are off...retirement and living off the interest sounds like the way to go.
