I blame Al Gore
If he hadn't been so naive in 2000, and neither had we been, this future wouldn't be occurring. And I'm a big Al Gore supporter, but he, and we, just were not ready for that kind of power grab. That US Supreme Court decision was a first in the history of the country, and it was the day my political innocence fell away.

Ah... what would today look like if Al had been president in 2000?

1. He's so young and thin there
On this board you must blame Ralph Nader. Or John Kerry. Or John Edwards. Or the Clintons.

Though personally I think we are all to blame. It's kinda a Paul Simon song for me. This is our country and we have watched it burned slowly before our eyes.

No Kennedy's left. :cry:

2. YOUR political innocence. Okay.
But some of us lived through Nixon, Reagan, Bush and Bush. Some were even adults during the time of the Dulles brothers. You wanna lose innocence? Check them.
