I think so!

How else do you explain the "softening up" post about Mars a few days before the big announcement?

And the fact that he likes Bush better than Dean, Gephart, or the other Dems. How can that be explained rationally, unless there are sinister motives afoot?

So, what is it? Money? Cabinet seat, maybe replace Powell? Or maybe he's working directly for the VRC (vast rightwing conspiracy), headed by Nixon (whose death was faked, you know), and backed by Fox [btw, I heard that, since he saw Gore debate GWB, JFK has signed up. LBJ just won't, even though Cheneys' really been pressuring him (he even offered him a Cadillac). Clintons' been offered a honorary membership for signing the welfare reform bill but, as usual, he won't spit OR swallow].

Maybe we really don't want to know! Maybe they'll kill us, or worse yet, turn us all into Republicans (the horror)!

P.S. In all seriousness, the Mars shot is a great booster. And mud in Osamas' eye.
