OT: Voting results in NH

Ok, so it's not Linux related, but what a great discussion!  Kudos to 
Paul for pointing out that our form of government is not a democracy, it 
is in fact a republic.  However, that being said, we do have many 
democratic process' and institutions, the New England town meeting is a 
perfect example of that.

effect relationship, i.e. something Bush did that triggered the event?  
Or are you talking about the policy and actions after 9/11?
