86. What a lame comment. I was part of the Dean/Clark wars for gods sakes.

But I admit politics became a passion of mine thanks to DU.

Mostly I hated George Bush with a passion, especially for lying us in to war. I told my Rep, prior to the vote that he needed to be careful about believing what they were saying about the centrifuges but he didnt believe me. I even protested against Bush when he came here.

Since I've become politically active I've donated to the party, canvassed extensively, sign waved and become a card carrying member of the party.

So puhleeze don't pretend the only politician I've ever been upset at is Obama.

I have to admit Clinton never crossed the lines with me that Obama has with this. I'm beginning to think this is worse than Bush. I did not think that could be possible. Unfathomable.
