Well, it's a proven fact that Winter does, in fact, come after fall. So, yes, Winter is coming.

And I like Winter.

just checking.

Last I looked, half of the country thinks George is an AssMonkey, and the other half thinks Kerry is a Monkey's Ass.

I don't think I mentioned Kerry. But I see the point you are trying to make. No, I doubt the country would be more united under Kerry or anyone else at this point. Our country has allowed itself to be driven into the ground. The division is deep and probably long-lasting.

Anyway, the point I was making is that division amongst ourselves and shunning our foreign neighbors is the wrong way to go. And that is the way we are going.

1. America is not divided where it counts, sure the politics got bad starting with the lefts 527s (read Soros) a full two years before the election. The right fires back with the SWV adds and it got ugly quick. The media has blown this all out of proportion and it is magnified because of compairson with post 9/11 unity.

2. The doom and gloom talk is utter nonsense, we are winning the war on terror, I know I'm here and the terrorist are here, a much better place for them to be than the hills of western Pennsylvania where my wife and three beautiful doughters would be defenceless against them. Make no mistake Saddam was a terrorist sponser, enabled by France and Germanies blatent disregard for UN sanctions. Although many Sunnis were very fond of the "oil for Palaces" program the UN ran.

3. If this were Westros Bush would be a Stark and Kerry a Frey.
