Your forgiven. As to balance, I consider myself one of the balances to you, Back, and WB. More fun to have someone post contradicting stuff then just read back patting.

While that may be fun I'd suggest it's not exactly balance. It seems like you march in lockstep with PB, Methais, Rocktar, Lavitacus, TG, Crb and others. Latrin's a good example of balance. He's a republican though he does seem to spend a lot of his time in the politics folder refuting the far right posters.
I didn't vote for Bush either time. I was going to vote for Bush the first time, but I got sent on a Business trip the week before the election, and didn't get a absentee ballot. The second time, I just didn't feel he deserved my vote. But I didn't like what Kerry offered. I don't feel I HAVE to pick Coke or Pepsi, I can drink water.
I did vote for Clinton the first time, but not the second. I Voted McCain because I respected his military career. Not the greatest reason... but I figured.. who would I want "commanding" our troops.. McCain.. a war veteran. Or Obama.. a Community activist. I think that's pretty much a no brainer.
I really didn't like Bill Clinton when he was President, and I still believe the nickname "Slick Willy" fits. Looking back however, it is clear that overall he made better economic decisions than his successors.
