Hello Tim,

>BS>I have been a registered Republican all of my adult life, but after
>BS>observing the Bush administration for the past five years, I feel obliged
>BS>to express my public outrage at the actions of a president who claims to
>BS>represent my party.

TR>I was a registered democrat, and proud of it for many years. I voted for
TR>Lyndon Johnson when he ran on his own.

Lyndon Johnson was a great president.

TR>although I voted for mostly democrat candidates in my hometown elections, I
TR>had to vote for Nixon in 1968. And again in 1972. The alternatives were Hube
TR>Humphrey and George Mcgovern, respectively. Both of whom were pretty much
TR>clueless.

You could have voted for George Wallace.

TR>I voted for Jimmy Carter

Jimmy Carter was a great president.  And still a great person.

TR>.....how anyone could have voted for Gerald Ford is mystery.

Ford was a good president, even though he was up to his eyeballs in
Watergate.

TR>Jimmy Carter's four years in the White House showed me that I was not really
TR>democrat at all. In fact, Jimmy Carter's silliness made me take a good look
TR>the democrat candidates I had been voting for, and I realized they were most
TR>bullshit. I dropped my affiliation with the democrat party and re-registered
TR>republican.

Ronald Reagan was a Democrat for most his life.  But then, he was more
of an actor than a Democrat or a Republican.  Which is why he won
election for governor of California as a Republican and for president
as a Republican.  People were not really voting for Reagan the
Republican, but rather Reagan the actor.  Same thing with the present
governor of California.

TR>The failure of the Senate to convict that goddamn scumbag hung on the votes
TR>several key republicans, who came out on the cameras and said one thing, the
TR>went and voted altogether different.

Reagan admitted his mistakes, and the people forgave him.

TR>So I dropped the republicans also, and re-registered independent.

Thus setting the stage for Ross Perot...

TR>The country is fucked up. It gets more and more fucked up as each year goes
TR>by. And it isn't `democrats' fuckin' it up..or `republicans' fuckin' it
TR>up.....its a combination of both. Both the democrats AND the republicans in
TR>the U.S. Congress do goofy things. For every democrat or republican `crook'
TR>that serves in Congress, you can find the same sort of `crook' on the other
TR>side of the aisle.

Louisiana has the best politicians that money can buy.  No other state
even comes close.  And the majority of those Louisiana politicians have
been Democrats.  Although that might change in the near future.

TR>I think my biggest regret is that, by the time the entire country comes to i
TR>senses, and takes back our Republic from these stupid-assed politicians, run
TR>the illegal aliens who are invading our country in droves out of here, and
TR>re-establish the Republic our Founding Fathers intended for us to have, I
TR>might be too old to take part in the shooting.

"May you live long and prosper." - Vulcan greeting
