TWD Editor CK Rairden's take on politics around the nation
Early Summer brought another positive week for the president in the Page 2 Politics Electoral College scoreboard. President George W. Bush got good news from the states of Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. All four states flipped to the president in the latest polls available.
A FOX News Opinion Dynamics poll shows President Bush with a slight lead over John Kerry in the states of Michigan and Ohio and Pennsylvania. But in Michigan, Bush only leads with Ralph Nader on the ballot, and since its still unclear whether Nader will get ballot access in Michigan, it will remain in Kerrys column for this week.

IMHO, August is Kerry's "break away" month. If he doesn't garner a double digit lead now, he's toast.

I want to see him win big time

It seems to me that what you wrote is not too much different than what a democrat(socialist) would say about why we need to keep and/or add some newfangled domestic program that is sure to fail spectacularly. I mean, as we both know, they are long on yapping endlessly about how we are supposed to "help" the poor, "teach" the children, blah, blah, blah. Conservatives rightly point out that it doesn't matter what the intentions are, what counts is the results, and the results of liberal domestic policy is abject failure.
I would love to think that the federal government could do a good, efficient job defending us. Sometimes, I catch myself thinking they might. Then I slap myself across the face.
Let me ask you a question: Don't you think this nation would be better off, safer, and certainly nowhere nearly as deeply in debt if the government simply MANDATED that every single home, condo, apartment, shanty and shack be supplied with a gun, pistol, or rifle. Not that I would advocate that sort of idea, but I would say that the cost of invading a country like that would be so high as to make it pointless. Anyway, is foregn policy really so complex? Why can't it by as easy as: "Free trade with all, foreign entanglements with none." G. Washington, of course.

Anyway, is foreign policy really so complex?Yes, it's nothing like anything else in our experience, except possibly an inner city gang war.
