Subj: AAARRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!


    What in God's name is going on in this country??? We have a
"President" who now positions himself as a conservative good old boy.
His administrations in Arkansas were wracked with corruption, even at
the highest level. This isn't the opinion of some right wing facist, as
his supporters call us true conservatives. It seems anymore that anyone
who dares to speak against the government is harassed and harangued to
the point of wanting to commit suicide. Why is it so implausible that
Vince Foster wasn't murdered? Why does everyone but the jurors who can
get his mug on tv consider OJ guilty? Shouldn't NBC now stand for the
National Bureau of political Correctness? Have you seen some of the left
wing drivel on that "Network"?  Heck I have close to 50 channels on
cable and there usually isn't one darn thing worth watching some nights.
There was more to watch when I was a child and we only had 3 channels.
What do some State of NH agencies have for brain cells, Yogurt? Damned
if I know when standing a child in a corner was deemed "Psychologically"
damaging punishment. From the Union Leader of 10/11/95 the following
were reported to have been listed by the agency in question as unfit
punishment; reprimanding a toddler who hit another by telling that
toddler "You're mean...you made an ouch; Four children were made to
stand in the corner for a time out. Why don't these liberal do-gooders
find themselves another line of work. Its bad enough that most primary
and secondary level educators have no course of discipline without some
"lifer" pushing some warped administrator's agenda.
    On the "debate" last night, all I heard were softballs tossed to the
participants. I don't agree with Sam Donaldson most of the time, but
that man has the chutzpah and gonads to ask the toughest questions to
the most important men in the nation. He will pursue him/her until he
gets his questions answered. Wake up! The voters aren't naive enough to
believe that the candidates give interviews to people who ask tough
questions. Their PR men would have a fit. Most interviews are to make
the person involved look good. These candidates want to win the respect
of the voters? Lose the brainless sycophants working on your campaign
and take a stroll or drive around the city. Go bowling at some local
lanes without making a big fuss over it. Go to church on Sunday without
the cameras. Take a walk in the park and talk to the veterans who gave
their bodies, lives, and in some cases their minds as well to protect
this country you so want to run.  Stop in for a few brews at a local
watering hole, if you imbibe. I am getting annoyed at the list of
"pretenders", (I refuse to call them contenders anymore) all wanting to
revive the Reagan Legacy. Most of them lack the moral turpitude and
strength of personal convictions to even shine that man's shoes. It is
a sad state of affairs that the most conservative of the pretenders has
the least number of years of experience. Does anyone remember the 1988
race for the GOP nomination? When Vice President Bush was the
conservative compared to Sen Dole? Does anyone remember 1980 when future
Vice President Bush was the moderate to the ex Gov Reagan. Remember
"voodoo economics"? Most people who went through a personal financial
crisis that ended in bankruptcy, came to a realization that their debt
got out of hand. Why won't this country do the same. Heck in a lot of
households that run smoothly and within the confines of a budget, the
women handle the finances. Anyone give thought to that? What can't be
afforded is gone without. My, my what a unique concept!
    Some of these men want to completely overhaul the tax structure.
Hey sounds good to me. Why not try your ideas in your home state and
come back later with some results. Why drag down the whole country with
your Uncle Fester like experiments. I am no feminist, but it is about
time to give some women a chance to run this country. People say they
are too emotional and can't hold up under the stress. What could be
more stressful than childbirth. In some cases, being too emotional may
be true, but there is something known a woman's intuition. Most of these
men running for president can tell you of an event in their life when
without exchanging any words, their mothers or wives knew they were up
to some mischief. That feeling is damned scary my friends, but that is
also a positive trait. There are several women currently on the
political scene that would be fine candidates for president. I hope the
men in this country put their pride aside and fairly give these ladies a
shot at it if they so desire. Ladies, here's looking at you and hope
some day you can get things straightened out before this country does
go bankrupt.
