Sometimes I just look back in awe at the seemingly un-bridgable gulf between Democrats and Republicans. Today we have Republicans cheering for their President over his abridging of their civil rights in the name of security. And why shouldn't they? They have been convinced that the only thing keeping them from being killed in the check-out line at Wal Mart is their beloved God-King tapping their phones and bugging the U.N.
Then on the left you poeple psyching themselves up for an impeachment. They say that Bush has already admitted to wire tapping for four years, all of which was illegal. Thus he is impeachable on that set of offenses alone. Forgetting the invasion and occupation of Iraq, the Plame leak, etc. etc.
How is it that we can have one group who wants to put their President on Mt. Rushmore, and another group wanting to impeach a man they aren't even convinced is the President? How are we ever to bridge this gulf? I love my country and I want it back together again. But I can't see myself ever wanting to give this man my allegiance. But neither do my counterparts want to bend. What to do. What to do.
