They ARE incompetent, but I'd have to think about that for a while as to 
which I prefer.

It's like the government school question.  When the likes of Lynda and I 
point out the damage government schools have caused, there is always someone 
who 
utterly doesn't get it who quips 'But the school where my children go is 
*good*, they are *good* teachers.'   Right.  And the better they are at their 
job, 
the more damage they are causing.

So what if Bush is an unrepentant globalist and a ramapnt warmonger?  Isn't 
it better that he is incompetent and so hasn't been able to pull of MORE 
globalism and MORE war?

Obama is a socialist, most of the (few) concrete proposals he has proffered 
have been pure Marxism.  Would I prefer a competent Marxist in the White 
House 
or an incompetent one?   It's similar to the question of whether you'd rather 
have a competent thief or an incompetent one trying to pick your pocket.

But moreover most of the the things that are being offered as proof of 
Obama's leadership almost boil down to the likes of, "He's got two feet, 
don't you 
prefer a president with two feet?"   </HTML>
