Keeler,who is whispering....?
"Given the nature of the past eight years. Some are already whispering, while others are shouting, that the Bush Presidency might go down as one of, if not the worst, U.S. Presidency in our nation's history. How kindly will history look back upon that which we in the present hold in such disdain. Look at Bush's currnet popularity polls to see what the data shows, it does not look good to say the least.
erhaps you could elaborate on you statement,"

Would that be the slime America first group?

Good lord, Keeler

Now that is a weighty tome.

After studying the Afican American history that I have, I can understand where Michelle Obama is coming from when she says she is proud of her country for the first time. For the first time, 143 years after the end of slavery, a Black man is on an equal footing in national politics with White opponents. What a historic time.

Unfortunately, some people would like to continue the politics of race. Too bad.

BTW-

Have you seen the newest IHSA sport? ;-)

Hi keeler,

Nice post.

One thing I learned during a period when the manufacturing industry in my country essentially disappeared: as John McCain said, the jobs don't come back.

The period of transition isn't easy. And in my view, the only way to find a way out the other end is through entrepreneurial activity. You can't protect your way out of the economics of change. You can invest in education, training and innovation. And you can limit the individual harms via social policies, if you choose and can afford to do so as a society.

But the future is an undiscovered country. And eyeballing it, at times, can be a scary thing to do.
