The W-egacy

[Ross Levine, Morphizm]
I for one wish I could vote for George Bush on November 4 and give him a third term. (And why can’t I, given the myriad “revisions” to constitutional law that have already occurred under his presidency?) But before you have me committed, the reason I’d like to re-elect him is that [...]
