Have we become so dependent upon the entitlements we have manufactured in recent decades that we have lost the will to defend ourselves...

Possibly. Bush increased funding to the Dept. of Education so that they can continue to contribute virtually nothing to a massively failing school system. Yet, if this analysis is correct, we are not funding our military to the degree needed to ensure our security.

Bush as the gutless wonder?

You know what I think? Bush should just go completely over the top. I mean every single thing we want, demand it. Ten things per day. Speeches everyday. Get these pompous, country club repubs in the House and Senate to get off there impotent asses and SELL SOMETHING.

TALK TO THE PEOPLE. Get behind the wheel and DRIVE the issues. Explain it to them. Damn the media. Overwhelm them. Damn the politics. Shout the naysayers down. Mobilize grass roots activism. Anyone else wonder why we, as citizens, have been asked to do virtually nothing to support this so-called war on terrorism? Damn 2004. Maybe there will not be any free elections in 2004 if we don't get the job done.
