Here we go again..., thought we addressed this last year.

So Lance is a republican, so is my Dad.

Both however thought the war against Iraq wrong, a mistake.

Lances words in February 2003:

President Bushs plans for the war against Iraq were a -big mistake-.

Patrick, point your anger in a constructive direction; ie:

Join Anti-racist action -Bikes against Bush- ride this Saturday, 7-24,
5:00 PM at 23rd and Guadelupe (former crit-mass starting point).

Ride will visit iconic locations, ending at the Capitol. An 8:00 PM
after-party follows at Cafe Mundi with Caviento, 1704 east 5th St., on the
tracks.
