Will Americans turn out in large numbers in November to REWARD the GOP for breaking down the social fabric of society and for speaking with forked tongues when the spirit moves them?

Have you noticed how 'gas prices are down at the pump' (as if by magic - Who Knew this could happen before November?) and the disturbing sounds from Bush-Cheney's occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan are miraculously muffled by the cheers and confetti of hero worship?
