Going for Barack
Tragedy or farce? The new old racism. Also: Electric driving and sticker shock. Tulsa schools. Plus more.

My apologies to Thom Bateman and anyone else I inadvertently offended in my last letter. My comments were intended to reference only two people, the president and the vice president of the United States. Please understand that I am not a “Bush-hater” or a “Cheney-hater.” While I disagree with many of their policies and believe they have been less than candid with the American people on several important issues, I do not hate them. Mr. Bateman does me a service by pointing out the clumsiness of my writing. It clearly did not convey my intended thought.
p>A thought for today: Imagine Hillary Clinton and the liberal she would bring into her administration as vice president exercising the unlimited, unchecked executive powers claimed by Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney. If you’re not comfortable with that thought, do you still think our current president and vice president’s ideas about presidential and vice presidential powers are good? Also, are you sure liberals won’t use wiretaps to keep track of their political enemies and those who would thwart their plans instead of using them only for their intended purposes? br> — Mike Roush br> North Carolina /p>
