  NEW ADMINISTRATION WITH NEW TAKE ON THE ISSUES

  I do not want to argue the Vietnam War anymore. People will tell me if we had not gone into that mess, the Berlin Wall would never have fallen.

  Then why, within months after we left, did China invade Vietnam and realize within a year that it was a waste of time?

  I don't care anymore.

  I do not wish to argue the gun issue anymore. As far as I am concerned the bad guys won and its over. I am against the right of individuals to own surface to air missles, nuclear arms and

  weapons that fire 160 bullets every minute--at least not in urban areas. Other than that, I don't care anymore.

  I do not wish to argue Affirmative Action anymore when the other side is simply covering a racial resentment that is irrelevant today.

  Issues have to be reframed or I am stuck arguing with Rush. I do not wish to argue with Rush anymore or even acknowledge his existence.

  This New Administration is not monolithic in thought, experience or education. It will be a team of hundreds of the best and the brightest. And the team is not going to ignore the wishes of the people in general or the party.

  I really think this new web site will open a door that will enable communication from the people who are interested in this country and from the government to the people.

  We will see. But I do not think that this New Administration is beholden to interest groups in any way shape or form like the current Administration was and still is.
