Re: your comment on leadership...

All that can happen WITH leadership. The problem with leadership is that it's so tricky. Too much, too strong, and you've got problems (mutiny). Too little, too indecisive, and you've got problems.

Leaders tend to be bossy, self-important, dictatorial folks if you don't keep them slapped down. Have you ever lived in a community with a Homeowners Association? Whew!

I am the very, very last person who would join the military, and the reason is..... right! Leadership. Power. And it really does corrupt. The more you've got, the more you want. From what I've seen (little enough) of the military, the stupider, crazier and more self-important you are, the higher you will be promoted.

Speaking of which, tomorrow we get to make our pick of the hairbrained twits of America.

VOTE! Vote for the idiot of your choice, but VOTE!
