I'm sorry! Yikes! As I furtively answered Dan this morning, I wasn't
trying to say anything profound or partisan, I just was making an
observation from what is going on with silly little things in America,
like 1) overtime wages and redefining employees so companies can pay
salaries instead of overtime wages, 2) unemployment, 3) the trend
towards hiring cheaper labor, in the States and off-shoring, etc, etc,
so I apologize about the Bush comment, I was not in any way trying to
make a Republican/Democratic/Green slur.
To act neurotic
or not neurotic
that is the question!
And I am glad I haven't been sent for an off-list time out because I
really made a mistake, I promise to never say the "B" word again.

Hi John,
Some people *might* see partisan politics in her posting's line, "Bush is
trying to squash the middle class right out of existence."
Michele's [sp!] political views are absolutely not in dispute here, only
their appropriateness for the forum -- IMVHO, of course.
More than one person has pointed out the lack of lightning bolts from
Olympus after her posting, so my VHO might be wrong.
