We have nothing to sell but fear itself.
That sadly is the reality for this ungodly cabal of crooks, thugs and incompetents. The number of long standing American values that W and company have trashed is astonishing. Even with the cataclysmic damage that this fool has done to the Constitution, the military, our reputation, the environment and on the list goes,the greatest destruction may be to the American spirit. Great Presidents have faced substantially more daunting challenges than the one mounted by Al Quida and the terrorists. They have trusted the basic courage and morality of the American people. Not this crew. Rather than inspire unity, they have spread distrust. Rather than praise valor, they have embraced torture. Rather than calling on the nation to sacrifice for a noble cause, they have bankrupted the treasury in a thousand cynical ways. There are many forces combining to drive the US into decline. History will confirm that the Republicans of W, Newt, Delay and Hastert have accelerated that process and therebymaterially compromised what had been the most successful experiment in self governance in history.

1. You should send that out as an LTTE.
Hell, we all should. That's beautiful.

9.  You raise the fundamental problem for Democrats. How do
you win against a group that will lie, cheat and steal to retain power? Any Democrat that thinks that these people are principled
partisans who just disagree on policy is delusional. This edition of the Republican Party is corrupt with growing fascistic tendencies. They need to be stopped before they destroy our commonwealth.
