I saw this. Let's just say that I don't think George Bush has the clout to push this idea. But the fact that it's even being discussed is a step in the right direction!

I agree with you! G.W. Does NOT have the clout to push this...but WE do!

I presented the idea to a group of 42 souls this past Thursday evening and was WELL recieved!

The pressure IS building and it's GOING to happen!

The fact that less than ten years ago we were discussing axing the Depts. of Education, Energy, and HUD, was also a step in the right direction. But as that showed, it's a step that can be easily reversed once its political utility (i.e., duping conservatives into supporting you) has evaporated.
