I don't believe that Dave. I've been wrong before, but I don't believe that. What does dismay me is that he's carried on this same unworkable non-solution from the past administrations. I do believe he does not have a clue how those policies are affecting far too many American Citizens, including a lot of Mexicans. Let me tell you what works: A bunch of hard headed Americans got together and told their Republican Senator and Representative that they were NOT getting elected if they didn't get off their dead butts and do something about Klamath Falls. Gordon Smith and Greg Walden knew we were dead serious and could do away with them politically. They got on Air Force One, and cornered Bush and showed him that lake as they flew over...that it was FULL. Until then, he didn't know we existed..not with turning the water on, facing down armed federal "employees", Caravans, protests, parades...you name it, we did it. That night, Bush was on the tube and he said, "There's some folks in Klamath Falls, Oregon that haven't been being treated very well!"
Unfortunately, Gordon Smith and Greg Walden still have their jobs, because they finally did something. But they don't forget you when you face them down and if you need their help personally after that, you probably won't get it. I sure didn't. But that's politics.
He doesn't live in our world, Dave..it's not all his fault, that's the "position" we put our leaders in. Please don't try to make him look like the devil, it's just politics, and yes, it sucks.
In my 25 years of hiring them I have found that they are good for one purpose only and that is to give you a view that you skipped over. So with their advice and professional background in whatever field, I am always the one who makes the final determination about what I need to do, should do or will do and when.
He is sitting in the same chair but has a much larger responsibility than I do, mine involves the care and betterment of four people not four hundred million.
So, if he is not working to defeat our Constitution and Bill of Rights he needs to show all of us doubters where we are wrong. I see Agenda 21 all the way through his actions, not what he swore to do when he took the Office.
