4. Away from a Republicon dominated future and empire?
I was all of five when Nixon was elected, but does ANYONE remember a Republic pResident who left the country in better shape than he found it? The lies of fiscal responsibility, small government and social conservatism (yeah, we know you're ALL a bunch of freaks) have been going on as long as I can remember, so how have they been able to get away with it for so long?

5. That's what I'll be asking for!
Yay for Brunner! After the Blackwell years, I thought we'd never recover.
