Sellam -
I agree, completely. I also voted for Perot. But, between Clinton and Bush,
at least to me, there is a world of difference.
You're right. Never since Grant's administration has there been such
rampant corruption, creepy secrecy, and disregard for the common
interest as we've seen since Shrub/Ashcroft/Cheney took office.
At least two of them are proven liars and crooks, and the remaining
one is a religious freak.
Improvement indeed. Give me almost any president in the last
100 years and it would be better than the dishonerable liar polluting
the office for his oil and defense buddies. Corrupt to the core,
even worse than Clinton's worst.
That's a fact, and it's coming to light very slowly, but it IS
coming to light.

I still cannot believe that
the majority of the American people voted for Clinton, for two terms. I am
not claiming that Bush is perfect, but, he is a heck of a lot better in
every respect than Clinton, from what I can see, from an engineer's
perspective. As someone else pointed out previously, the people that can
really do a decent job at being president, unfortunately will not run, or do
not have the finances to even get it started if they were to. So, our
choices are limited. But, at least, we do have choices. Fortunately in this
country, I believe we have the momentum, and the will of the American
people, to make things continue, properly, during any administration.
Fluctuations in economy and world opinion will continue regardless. I am a
consultant, for the military, and as of the new fiscal year I do not have a
job. I do not blame any one for that. I will make something work out, as I
have enough confidence in myself and my abilities even at 57. Regards - Mike

Mike, I understand your sentiment, but there is no excuse for what we have
for a political system currently, and who we have in office.
Just because other systems were much worse than ours does not mean that we
should not seek to make ours more honorable.
