The only reason I mention my age is that I have been deeply involved in Politics for 50 years. I followed all the various Presidents from FDR to the present time. My first vote was for Ike believing that he was the ultimate Patriot after following his movements in Europe. What I discovered was another hypocrit who had brought his mistress from Europe all the way to America and then had the nerve to add "Under God" to our pledge of Allegiance. I was naive enough at that time to believe that God-fearing people didn't commit adultery. I soon grew up.

In believing in individual rights equally, I stayed pretty close to the GOP and began to see the degeneration of the men themselves. They would state one thing and do another.

Today the GOP has lost me completely! Bush's greatest crime has been to ignore the public schools. Over and over many teaching systems have been demonstrated to him and he shrugs, squints and leaves the room.

Today every student from 9th grade up still can't read above a 6th grade level and has no interest in any political party running for anything. In America I figure he lost a million voters from ignoring the high school kids. He is arrogant and I'm beginning to think a tad stupid. We all pointed out to him where his voter base could be found and he shrugged and wanders off. He Friggin doesn't give a damn!

I never voted for anyone named Bush and I certainly will not start now.
