Being fairly new to the list I'm surprised to find the close minded Bush
supporters lingering here.. but hey, it takes all types to make the world go
round?
     Just curious as we bash the oil drillers... I'm very disappointed in
the aussie government for endorsing Bush's pathetic alternative global
warming plan ... come on!
Hail to the Kiwis for banning the logging of Old Growth forests.  I'm
slipping off topic here, so I'll end on that note.

lurked on this list for a while but have never posted.  I've noticed the
anti-Bush sentiment on this site, and while I appreciate everyone's right to
his or her opinion, I feel compelled to defend my President (yes, the one I
proudy voted for), unpopular as that might be.

> - I don't see how 'Coke snorting' and 'DUI driving' are even relevant,
especially regarding the last President we have.  Last I heard, these were
problems Bush dealt with over 20 years ago.  Todd, I suppose all mistakes
you've made in your life have rendered you incompetent to perfrom your job,
whatever that may be.
>
> - 'Draft dogging' - I believe the word is 'dodging.' In any case, Bush
volunteered his services to the Texas Air Guard during Vietnam war, but was
never called overseas. I think you have Bush and the former President
confused on this one.
>
> - 'Fund siphoning' and 'big business bribe taking.'  Maybe I'm not
watching or reading the same news sources as you, but as of today, I've not
heard that proof has been found of either.
>
> - 'Planet polluting' - I hope you're not referring to drilling in Alaska.
I suppose we should save the caribou and depend on foreign sources of oil.
Or maybe you're referring to that Kyoto treaty business again. Sorry if it
just isn't what's best for America.

> And lastly, 'weasel faced car salesman'?  Please....

> You know, I almost can't believe that this is my first post to this list,
because really, Todd's remarks do not deserve a response.  However, in the
spirit of debate and freedom of expression, I suppose such sentiments are
legitimate, but is mere name calling (some of which if flat-out untruthful)
the best way for us to submit our opinions?  I hope not.

it will be on the topic of the Oils and their musics.
