But Savage sees no difference between the two parties, either.  He
worries Bush might have been too soft on Iraq, and is too compassionate
with not enough conservative.  He thinks the administration is caving
into us Red Diaper Doper Babies because of the assualt rifle ban,
inadequate support for Santorum, and, this is the big one, AIDS money for
Africa.  He thinks we should just parachute zippers into Africa to solve
the crisis.
