They finally have a decent candidate. I just didn't have it in me to vote for either one of these two pontificating clowns. Plus, I bought into some of the right wing puffery that I now fight against every chance I get. In hindsight, as bad as Kerry or Gore were, they would have been better than Bush. But in all fairness, after what the republicans have done, I'd probably vote for Homer Simpson for president as long as he wasn't republican.Ben Therehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09552547709669462400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8335611828023778237.post-45507296957753707502008-10-22T21:18:00.000-07:002008-10-22T21:18:00.000-07:00It is funny to read you are not proud of the past ...It is funny to read you are not proud of the past 8 years in government and yet I remember arguing with you about voting for Bush. Yet you did both terms. It is so refreshing that you have educated yourself on the issues and have opened your eyes and even mine. This election we don't have to argue.

Too large. You can find the info here: <BR/><BR/>http://www.thomaspaine.org/contents.html<BR/><BR/>I have the book:<BR/> <BR/>"The Complete Writings of Thomas Paine" by Phillip s. Foner that I tried to send. Anyway, all of the writings are on that page. I STRONGLY recommend "The Agae of Reason", "Common Sense", "The Rights of Man", "Letters to The Citizens of the United States" ...hell, all of them.
