  The democrats were responsible for the dot.com bust in 2000. They were responsible for the 911 terrorist's attack which resulted in wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. They are responsible for the current recession because they voted for deregulation in the early 90's and accepted lobbyist money from Freddi Mac and Fannie May. Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid programs created by democrats are driving the country into insolvency. They have caused millions of jobs to be sent to foreign countries because Clinton supported free trade and they support unions. They now have added fuel to the fires consuming the nation with the election of Obama who has promised to lower taxes for the middle class. It's time that America went to a two party or multi-party system to combat the damage inflicted upon us by having only one political party.

  Why didn't this issue (Feb 25, 2008) have a story on the upcoming declaration of independence of Kosovo from Serbia? This could result in a civil war which could then affect US forces. Is it because Newsweek didn't know or care about it? Is it because Pres. Bush was not doing his job (again) of informing the American people of major happenings that will affect the people? Did he influence the timing of the declaration relative to the elections?
  What happened?

  I think the Conservative Right, which calls themselves "the base", needs to wake and recognize that they are no longer material. McCain is ahead because of moderates and independents who don't all share the hate-filled diatribes of the conservative right. Thanks to many of the policies of the conservatives, we have a national debt approaching $8 trillion if it's not already there, and a quagmire in Iraq. We still haven't caught bin Laden, and the Quaker-in-Chief can only cut 6/10 of 1% of the budget?
  
  The last time we had such a strong conservative push, we had Prohibition. Ooh, that was a big hit. Time for the conservative right to swing back into the trees and shut the hell up. We're tried of hearing from you...
