Sarcophagus,
It is a line from "my guitar gently weeps" not to be taken too literally.
I agree that nothing will change, that the "string pullers" will always be there and they are not voted in. I have never seen any politician as a ray of hope.
It is just that some are exceptionally crap as GWB has proven to be. He has raised "being crap" to an artform.
