	FDR was far and away worse than Bush.  We could go on an on about how 
this is so, but let us spare the groups the pain.  Bush's main 
"problem", so to speak, is his serious incapacity for subtlety and 
cleverness.  He is a bull in a china shop and doesn't give a tinker's 
damn about what any of us think.  The frightening part of this is how 
weakly people have responded to the various insults to our rights.  In 
the past 8 years we have taken many steps away from being a civilized 
nation.
