Now that's a party that I can get down with. Black is second only to Highland Park 12-year for day-to-day consumption. :up:

Oh rot! None of this is new to politics, only the methods have been refined. Go read some newspapers from 100 years ago and see. :shifty:

An optimist is nothing more than a poorly informed pessimist.

Sadly, behind the partisan slogans and big promises, politicians on all sides aren't all that different... the problems are a lot deeper than any election can fix right now.

QFT sadly but hey...would it be so bad if the Us is not top dog? No more spending blood and treasure overseas for example? Russia is doing ok today.
