Is America so blind, that we cannot see the double standard that these eight presidential candidates are presenting to us? They preach global warming as if it was a religion and they were the apostles, and then they each arrive in their own private jets. They're tripping all over each other apologizing for a war that they voted for or supported. They demand gun control and they're security details are armed for a small war.

Will this blatant hypocrisy be exposed for the charade that it is? Unfortunately no, there are many in this country who is so butt blind with their hatred of President Bush, his cabinet and the Republican Party that they would do or say anything to destroy his Presidency.

We see these candidates' mouths move, but we hear no words. The words we do hear are unintelligible and the country strains to understand the message, but the message is fleeting and then it forgotten and disappears as quick as the candidates contrails from their private jets.

Maybe General Petraeus is correct in his analysis that it is going to get worse before it gets better, but the difference is… he was talking about Iraq, or was he?
