very good concice summary!!---but will we have the wisdom?---all it will take is a scary bin ladin tape or two!!

.....These are not the only shocking abuses of President Bush’s two terms in office, made in the name of fighting terrorism. There is much more — so much that the next president will have a full agenda simply discovering all the wrongs that have been done and then righting them.

We can only hope that this time, unlike 2004, American voters will have the wisdom to grant the awesome powers of the presidency to someone who has the integrity, principle and decency to use them honorably. Then when we look in the mirror as a nation, we will see, once again, the reflection of the United States of America.

They were too cowardly to strike collectively when they stole such power ... again.

Hopefully the reflection this time will reveal something else.
