Consider this:

Hmmm... Any one else notice a trend?
I personally find it hard to support any politician lately - Republican or Democrat. It just seems like we are headed down the wrong path as a nation and as a world.
Maybe in 2006 I will do a write in ballot - Bryan Nesbitt for President!

A nation at war. 2,592 dead sons and daughters in Iraq (hidden from public consciousness). A national debt of $8,454,258,293,232.21 (that has increased an average of 1.68 billon dollars per day since September 30, 2005) and an estimated share per U.S. citizen of $28,250.70. I guess when you really consider it, the price of gas is the least of our problems.
