Political stuff

Even if you like George W. Bush, I fail to see how any American can feel good about this:

"Asked last week what he thought of the size of the antiwar demonstrations, the President scoffed that worrying about that would be like 'deciding, well, I'm going to decide policy based on a focus group. The role of a leader is to decide policy based upon the security -- in this case, the security of the people.'" -- Time, March 3, 2003

People, when he talks about how he'd like to be dictator -- he's not joking.

one of the things the president Clinton was consistently criticed for, all eight years, by both ends of the political spectrum, was his willingness to set policy based on the results of a focus group and not based on what was actually, best, prudent or constitutional.
