28. Your final statement says it all!!!!!!!!!!!!:


It’s not just the FDA, of course. All federal government agencies have been badly corrupted during the years of the Bush pResidency. In a democracy, money is not supposed to drive the most important decisions that a nation makes – but that’s the current status of our nation; in a democracy, people are supposed to have some confidence that their votes will be counted – but that’s not the current status of our nation; in a democracy, the news that people get is not supposed to be dominated by a handful of wealthy and powerful corporations – but that is the current status of our nation; and last but not least, in a democracy that also has a strong mechanism built into its Constitution for getting rid of incompetent and corrupt public officials, a pResident with a 27% approval rating would be out on his ear before too long – but that’s not the current status of our nation. :grr:

God help us - Will GWB take over before the 2008 election is finalized? We will soon find out!
