Makes me think of a new 'manifest destiny' with Bush leading us into the Middle East (cue inspirational music...) Bush is kinda scary--I mean, I'm a conservative but he is definitely not my first choice for the White House. Course, neither is John Kerry. It'll be interesting to see how this...

So this is how everyone has such high post counts! <adds to own> Welcome all...

I'm working, going to the Outer Banks of NC and maybe slipping off to the Adirondaks for some fun with friends. And of course, planning my Christmas getaway for next year--Patmos! I love the Greek isles...
