Fellows, I'll bet there's still some optimism left in you or you wouldn't be reading and posting at FR. Don't get caught being pessimistic in a world where lots of hope remains. Think what it would be like if we still had the Dems running everything, as was the case in the '70s. Not only are we past that, but we have great leadership now, probably the best of my lifetime.

I have the faith, but I hope in reality. Even with GW in the big seat I am not stupid or native enough to think it is going to change to a point of making an actual difference. The "status quo" will not change until the old guard is removed and the people will not accept the likes of uncle teddy, L. Cheffy (sp) regretfully the time is not now, and we are at the will of morally corrupt (see our judicary and ms shievo and sandy burger) reprobates, the ones in charge are worthy of nothing but scorn until they put this country first and quit throwing the "masses" morsels from the bounty that we stupidly provide them.

While I am by nature optimistic,I am also from Missouri -show me.
