Visionaries:

Even if I had an ounce of respect for George Bush, and I don't; even if I 
were a committed Republican, and I'm not; even if I believed George Bush to be a 
simple and misguided man rather than the moronic lackey of his old man's 
cabinet, his performance today in California would have caused me to abandon once 
and for all any association with his cause.

I am in hopes that CNN will replay the clip that I watched live on CNN today 
for the edification for all Americans.  Mr. Bush was preparing to speak.  He 
was standing slack-jawed and apparently bored during the introduction which was 
given by an African American man, who appeared to be considerably older than 
George.  At the end of the introduction I saw what I never imagined I would 
see even from a ninny like Bush.  The president of this country walked over to 
the podium, shook hands with the man who had introduced him and (you won't 
believe this) proceeded to pat and rub this man's head.  It was insulting, 
patronizing, and given the racist message associated with that behavior, simply 
inconceivable to me.  

Anybody but George in November,
Rose Huskey
