"He's [Bush] not representing the will of the people, he's just running the country like the whole thing is a game.'

Perhaps you haven't noticed that career congressmen play America like a monopoly gameboard. America is *their corporation* providing endless revenues with which to diddle and speculate. It is CONGRESS, not Bush, who betrays American citizens. The more often career politicans are re-elected, the more they betray. With each new term, they establish an increasing constituency of lobbyists, special interest groups, ideologic sycophants and PACs.
For a convenient example, good old SHAM FULL Gary Condit.

Oh yes, I have indeed noticed.

America is *their corporation* providing endless revenues with which to diddle and speculate.

Agreed.

It is CONGRESS, not Bush, who betrays American citizens.

You lost me here. It's all of them. Nobody in the executive or legislative branch is exempt from willful malfeasance and treason to the wishes of the citizens.

The more often career politicans are re-elected, the more they betray.

Yep.

With each new term, they establish an increasing constituency of lobbyists, special interest groups, ideologic sycophants and PACs.

Indeed.

For a convenient example, good old SHAM FULL Gary Condit.

Yep. And about 500 others. I agree with you on most things, except Bush's benevolent innocense in the whole bastardized process.

Doh!

I forgot that I hired an illegal alien to post what I was too lazy to post. Then I took a shot of caffeine and posted it myself too. Hence the double post.

Just goes to show you that us citizens aren't as lazy as GWB says we are.
