Nah man you have it all wrong
In the words of Neil Young from Revolution Blues ("On the Beach"
album) .....
"Well, we live in a trailer
at the edge of town
You never see us
'cause we don't come around.
We got twenty five rifles
just to keep
the population down.
But we need you now,
and that's why
I'm hangin' 'round.
So you be good to me
and I'll be good to you,
And in this land of conditions
I'm not above suspicion
I won't attack you,
but I won't back you."
Says it all for me

Out of 43 presidents only 2 of them have been assinated, I think that is a
small number compared to the rest of the world.

Actually, four were assassinated.
Assassinated presidents:
Abraham Lincoln - assassinated by John Wilkes Booth
James Garfield - assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau
William McKinley - assassinated by Leon F. Czolgosz
John Kennedy - assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald
Presidents who suffered attempted assassinations:
Andrew Jackson's would-be assassin: Richard Lawrence (both derringers
misfired)
Harry Truman; Oscar Collazo and Griselio Torresola attempted to storm Blair
House, Truman's residence.
Gerald Ford's would be assassins: Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme and Sara
Jane Moore, in two separate incidents.
Ronald Reagan; shot and wounded by John W. Hinkley, Jr.
President Bush would likely shoot back, as any good Texan would.

Jay Leno wrote this; it's the Jay Leno we don't often see... "The other
day I was reading Newsweek magazine and came across some poll data I found
rather hard to believe. It must be true given the source,
right? The Newsweek poll alleges that 67 percent of Americans are unhappy with
the direction the country is headed and 69 percent of the country is unhappy
with
the performance of the president. In essence 2/3s of the citizenry just ain't
happy and want a change.
>So being the knuckle dragger I am, I started thinking, ''What we are so
unhappy about?
>Is it that we have electricity and running water 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week? Is our unhappiness the result of having air conditioning in the summer
and heating in the winter? Could it be that 95.4 percent of
these unhappy folks have a job? Maybe it is the ability to walk into a grocery
store at any time and see more food in moments than Darfur has seen in the last
year?
Maybe it is the ability to drive from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean
without having to present identification papers as we move through each state?
Or possibly the hundreds of clean and safe motels we
would find along the way that can provide temporary shelter? I guess having
thousands of restaurants with varying cuisine from around the world is just not
good enough. Or could it be that when we wreck our car, emergency workers show
up and provide services to help all and even send a helicopter to take you to
the hospital. Perhaps you are one of the 70 percent of Americans who own a home.
You may be upset with knowing that in the unfortunate case of a fire, a group of
trained firefighters will appear in moments and use top
notch equipment to extinguish the flames thus saving you, your family and your
belongings. Or if, while at home watching one of your many flat screen TVs, a
burglar or prowler intrudes, an officer equipped with a gun and a bulletproof
vest will come to defend you and your family against attack or loss. This all in
the backdrop of a neighborhood free of bombs or militias
raping and pillaging the residents. Neighborhoods where 90 percent of teenagers
own cell phones and computers. How about the complete religious, social and
political freedoms we enjoy that are the envy of everyone in the world? Maybe
that is what has 67 percent of you folks unhappy. Fact is, we are the largest
group of ungrateful, spoiled brats the world has
ever seen. No wonder the world loves the U.S, yet has a great disdain for its
citizens. They see us for what we are. The most blessed people in the
world
who do nothing but complain about what we don't have, and what we hate about the
country instead of thanking the good Lord we live here. I know, I know. What
about the president who took us into war and has no plan to get us out? The
president who has a measly 31 percent approval rating? Is this the same
president who guided the nation in the dark days after 9/11? The president that
cut taxes to bring an economy out of recession? Could this be the same guy who
has been called every name in the book for succeeding in keeping all the spoiled
ungrateful brats safe from terrorist attacks?
The commander in chief of an all-volunteer army that is out there defending you
and me? Did you hear how bad the President is on the news or talk show? Did
this news affect you so much, make you so unhappy you
couldn't take a look around for yourself and see all the good things and be
glad? Think about it......are you upset at the President because he actually
caused you personal pain OR is it because the "Media" told you he was
failing to kiss your sorry ungrateful behind every day. Make no mistake about
it. The troops in Iraq and Afghanistan have volunteered to serve, and in many
cases may have died for your freedom. There is currently no draft in this
country. They didn't have to go. They are able to refuse to go and end up with
either a ''general'' discharge, an ''other
than honorable'' discharge or, worst case scenario, a ''dishonorable'' discharge
after a few days in the brig.So why then the flat-out discontentment in
the minds of 69 percent of Americans? Say what you want but I blame it on the
media. If it bleeds it leads and they specialize in bad news. Everybody
will
watch a car crash with blood and guts. How many will watch kids selling
lemonade at the corner? The media knows this and media outlets are for-profit
corporations. They offer what sells, and when criticized, try to defend their
actions by "justifying" them in one way or another.just ask why they
tried to allow a murderer like O.J. Simpson to write a book about how he didn't
kill his wife, but if he did he would have done it this way......Insane! Stop
buying the negativism you are fed everyday by the media. Shut off the TV, burn
Newsweek, and use the New York Times for the bottom of your bird cage. Then
start being grateful for all we have as a country. There is exponentially more
good than bad. We are among the most blessed people on Earth and should thank
God several
times a day, or at least be thankful and appreciative." "With
hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe
thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another,
and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, "Are we sure this is
a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?"
