When you look at political parties do you not also think that they promise the world and then find they cannot deliver. I know in Canada you often find that most solutions are the middle of the road. Then again, you often find, the opposition's party's main reason d'etre is merely to score points against the people in power. Sometimes I think politicians are their to represent the people and do what is best for the constituents.

Interesting about what is happening over in afghanistan. The prison breakout was well planned and carried out. Interesting that possibly the pakistan's on the border were firing at the Americans. Does that mean the Taliban have bought them off and they can freely cross the border.
