So I'm talking to my Step-Mom
She's very smart, a well traveled and well educated self made woman that y Dad was lucky enough to find. She calls me just a little while ago and says..."9/11" and giggles, she wants me to know if that got drilled into my brain yet. She saw some of the convention and was sickened as was my father. Her theory and his is that the international community will try and have a say in this election. They both think that it will be the work of journalists in other countries that help to defeat Bush. Both have friends that live and work in other countries and from what they're been told most European leaders want Bush out because he is threatening everyone's security. So take heart, even if the seem to remain neutral, people all over the globe are working on getting * out of office come November.

1. That's good news!
Just wish someone could pound some sense into my inlaws' heads (figuratively speaking, of course).

2. That idea has occurred to me too--sort of a
Radio Free America.
The potential problem is that maybe the Bushies could spin the idea of "foreign interference in our election" in a devastatingly negative way. Jeez, look what they did to French fries.

3. Maybe, but i think a greater force is working to get rid of him
I never really thought about how what Bush has done really affects them, i mean maybe in passing i have but not deeply, you know what i mean? I think the security of the free world is riding in this election, i know that sounds over the top but this war has had a bad domino effect on alot of things, mainly recruiting a never ending stream of angry people that seek to do us and anyone that agrees with us harm. The only way to improve the odds of all of us being safer is removing Bush.
