No doubt, Somerfrost. Scares me, and most of the other inhabitants of the planet as well.
Here's what he said when he was Governor of Texas, “I don’t believe my role is to replace the verdict of a jury with my own, unless there are new facts or evidence of which a jury was unaware, or evidence that the trial was somehow unfair.” - GWB
And, obviously, DaHoss didn't take the time to read Howard Zinn's article about putting away the flag. Oh well.
Seems that when beleivers are confronted with truth, they still cling to their "beliefs".
