ok - one more mention and then I'll stick to the music.
my family lost 4 friends in the World Trade Center attacks - including someone I went to high school with.
the way the Bush Administration has attempted to co-opt this tragedy is sickening. The families that I know - those four - are disgusted with him and how he used their own tragedies for his political gain. They feel betrayed. They are all conservative families. Even if I was a Republican, I would never vote for Bush for that reason alone. New Yorkers are disgusted with him - he has never had an inkling of respect for that city until he saw it as a means to propell his platformless agenda into the limelight. What a coward and what a fraud. The man is a despicable alcoholic power monger. He deserves to spend the rest of his days in Crawford Texas.
