i was watching 'meet the press' this morning and Dick Gephardt (D-MO, Presidential candidate for 2004) was on. he had a lot of good ideas that made me want to vote for him...but his ATTITUDE SUCKED! he was all "the fact that the nations budget deficit is $600 billion dollars is all the fault of President Bush. [ ]at the end of the clinton Admin., the budget was balanced and then the republicans came in and screwed it up." (not a direct quote, but similar to what he said). now i personally believe that President Bush has been doing the best job he can do, under the circumstances. I shudder to think what would have happened after 9/11 if Gore had won the election (or any other democrat for that matter).
