Ya know, sometimes bad is better

With Kerry's outlandish push for more, not fewer, troops in Iraq, and approving, without question, Bush's 80-plus billions as a supplement for the defense department, I'm not sure Bush's election wasn't, in the long run, a good deal for us lefties. After all, what would we do with Kerry in control? Protest against our victor? Sure, he wouldn't be privatizing everything, but he's got an odd set of priorities in international relations, namely, the time-worn ideas that power makes peace.
