With all due respect to you, Tony, I don't think you get it (a trite condescending, don't ya think?)
There are a lot of folks that have watched the Bush/Cheney/Rove oligarchy piddle away our freedoms, get us into a war, abuse prisoners, tap our phones, ignored global warming, promote teaching creationism in our schools, stole the election through the courts, lied to congress on the WMD, watched over the economy of "Enron", Fanny Mae, etc., decided that we didn't need an energy policy..I'm sure you know the rest of the list.
Very liberal social issues: like getting medical help for everyone. I guess if you are independently *very* wealthy, or you own an insurance company, health care isn't a problem.
The question is will there be a planet/U.S. around where you can make your own choices the way you want, with four more years of the same? I truly worry for my young adult children, and theirs.
