Judson, I actually laughed out loud at this. Some of us here, do not
live in the United States. We read *world* news, and get a variety that
you have absolutely no conception of.

Of course, in Canada we have the most conservative, richest banker that
that we could find as head of the liberal party, and a rather stupid
religious bigot in charge of the conservative party. The only other
possibility is an academic with his head up his ass, so who am I to talk?

Personally, I think everyone in politics a complete bull*** artist.
