Political stuff
There is an article on The New York Times web page talking about the support for Bush waning recently. I believe it. There is so much criticism in the press lately that no one can hear a supportive voice over all the jeers. I don't know what kind of base The New York Times has for it's poll. I know I don't answer the phone at home so they will never get hold of me. Most conservative people I know don't participate in polls.
One little part of that article confirmed something I've believed for quite some time. Nader will divide the Democratic party if he continues to run for president. Apparently 5% of those polled would vote for Nader over Kerry where Kerry looses the 5%. I guess Nader puts the demo in democrat. =] It sounds like a dollar for Nader is five dollars for Bush. If there were only a way to make sure Nader would not pull out of the race and support Kerry.
Something else in the article says more Americans believe the Iraqi people are ungrateful for the toppling of Saddam. This was inevitable in my opinion. People in Iraq and the Middle East in general have had two uniting themes guiding their lives for the past fifty or so years, the hatred of Israel and the hatred of Israel's strongest ally, the U. S. I keep hearing that many folks will not be happy until Israel is pushed into the sea. I thought Arafat said that, but I can't find a quote. People in forums love saying it.

A buddy of mine has a Mercedes. It is a little hot-rod coop convertible. He paid like $55,000 for it and didn't even get the xenon headlights. He is kind of nerdy and not a very good driver to be honest. I've ridden with him several times and he breaks funny. Anyway, it has been a running joke that there is a pool to pick when and just how he is going to kill himself in that car. Well, he spun it out just off Wilcrest and did some damage to the undercarriage, Thank God he wasn't hurt. He seems a bit embarrassed about the whole thing. I may take up a collection to get him some of those racing lessons they have at tracks somewhere around here.
