Dane has a point. We're not going to fix things overnight. The question is, do we fall on our swords and let things become much worse, or do we start the slow U-turn to get things to the way they should be?

Look, I'm okay with a slow U-turn.

But dammit, man, turn the nation to the RIGHT when you are U-ing. Not to the LEFT -- just in case you can't complete your goal.

Unfortunately, 9/11 upset the apple cart and because the threat is so severe, just why should Bush and his team be doing much else but trying to wipe put al Qaeda?? He's got a full plate and to expect him to rollback the welfare state or even make stab at it is for fantasists.His priorities changed.I'm glad they did, and glad he knows the dangers and glad that no Democrat has a hope in hell of getting near the WH in the next 6 yrs while this war has to be won.
