Can't help it... :)<br /><br />As for the difference between Republicans and Democrats...it is hard to tell, isn't it? Lately, it seems that Obama has hired Bush2's speech writer.<br /><br />allanAllan Stellarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12664417640753179655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559482056018458626.post-37459447333229767932009-12-15T22:06:04.345-08:002009-12-15T22:06:04.345-08:00Rode to town for a dentist appointment.

Before I left, I made some refinements on my faring, which made it quieter (less vibration) and sleeker.

I think not. Did you see the Jon Steward clip about Obama's Afghanistan clip? It would be truly funny if he was making it up... ;-(<br /><br />One of the many reasons I like Ron Paul is that he avoids the labels and stereotypes, and persistently brings the discussion back to a focus on _ideas_ and principles and their impact. Making snide remarks about golfing Republicans, to me seems to mask the real questions in name-calling. I hold similar concerns about golf courses, but think that blaming it on my political party undermines those concerns.Ian Woofendenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11331142057628589949noreply@blogger.com
