I like to read posts by such as Don Quijote. He is pure and I am not. Yea,
I KNOW what scoundrels all the rest of you are and I treat you accordingly.
Unfortunately, in the process, I become as bad as any of you.

But Don Quijote presses on pure and innocent and occasionally quite naive.
He is like a breath of fresh air after all our vituperations. I am mostly
in a rage every time I come on these freaking cycling newsgroups. I only
want to kill all of you. Sometimes I think I am going crazy from the
frustration of it all.

But then I read a message from the Great Don Quijote and I realize that
all is not lost after all. We need to become like children in order to go
on living. I mourn my lost innocence. It was Tom Sherman of ARBR who
soured me for Usenet. Aye, I hold him responsible for my dour disposition.

Maybe you'd be happier in California?

In California they may have a barbarian governor, but at least he's
open to change. His Hummer is hydrogen powered. Well, it could be
worst.

Next thing we need is a president who rides a bike.

"A" president who rides a bike is fine. Just not "The" president who
rides a bike.

We currently do. Don't you remember the key issue of the 2004
election wrt to Kerry vs. Bush?

Kerry's a road rider, Bush is a MTB rider.

After having a president by and for the SUVs, we need a chance for our
humble bikes. Maybe we need to come up with a bicycle party, since
they have a Big Oil party.

Maybe good for photo ops, but we need the real thing. Someone who
rides to and from the White House, and who makes our roads safe. Safer
than Iraq at least.

George Bush regularly rides a mountain bike for recreation and exercise.
And his modest personal home is a model of energy efficiency (unlike Al
Gore's four homes, for example)[Google it]. I think it safe to say that he
has spent more time on a bicycle and that his home is the greenest of any
candidate who has ever run for president of the USA since electricity and
home heating oil came into widespread use.

Perhaps you need to introduce your agenda from a different and more truthful
angle.

Maybe he's having a good time riding bike between cocktail and
cocktail, but most American don't feel any safer riding a bike than
the troops he sent to Iraq.

Something tells me you aren't exactly all squared away. Were you whacked in
the head by a windmill blade somewhere along the line?

Somehow I think the oil party might exercise a bit more power.

Yes, in a system where money talks and bull****... But the ratio
shouldn't be greater than 100 to 1.

I don't think the bicycle party could rally even the money for a bike
path, let alone a $400b war.

That's why we need the bicycle party.
