A Very Hungry Caterpillar

Hi, My name is Brian Dickerson, and I've never heard of Richard Nixon or Watergate.

It sickens me to write these words, because I am one of those who gave Bush the benefit of the doubt -- one of the many Americans who, however much we may have disagreed with him on a dozen other issues, simply could not bring ourselves to believe that any president would mislead his constituents about so important a matter, or be so cynical about exploiting the emotional dynamite of 9/11.

Jeez, I'm young enough that Nixon's presidency is only a vague memory, but even I know that presidents often lie, cheat, steal, and commit acts of near-treason...
