Very good points Sluggo and I agree with you. But I wish I could trade places with President Bush just long enough to get my finger on the nuke buttons. Just give me 10 minutes with it. Our gasoline would glow for awhile and Israel would have a great deal more territory to colonize... [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]
or even better, bring back the "Neutron bomb" that President Carter discontinued developing. It wiped out populations but left buildings and equipment intact. After a certain period of time (much sooner than nukes) it was safe to go back into the area and claim your victory. Why destroy perfectly good buildings, vehicles and oil production equipment just to wipe out some filthy Islamic extremists? I'm sure the cadavers could be used for some kind of fertilizer or something.
Boo fucking boo hoo
I guess we'll be paying reparations in the millions to Taliban POWs next. [img]graemlins/grrr.gif[/img]
Good points re: the political divide, but let's not delude ourselves here- if Gore was the President, and everything else was equal, right-wing talk radio would be all over him just like the mainstream media is with Bush.
I was listening to Hugh Hewitt last night, and he made a comment how everything would be fine but for the Democrats and the liberal media. Well, I;m sorry, but the conservatives control the White House, the Federal Courts, and both houses of Congress. The Democrats are a minority party in every sense of the word. If it ain't gettin' done, it ain't the minority party's fault. By definition, it can't be.
Like I said, don't get me wrong- of course the Democratic party is putting its own interests ahead the country's. But if a Democrat were in the White House, the GOP would be doing the same thing. Only you wouldn't be hearing about it in the NY Times, it would be over at Fox News and on talk-radio.

Yeah, sure, he's about as worked up about any of this as he was about being taken to task for deserting. Follow the money if you want to see the "consequences" of his actions.Quote:

I guess if Gore were in office now you would be blaming everything wrong in the world on a right wing conspiracy? Take your medication Pina, your absence has not improved your condition.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Pina, you can say "follow the money" about ANY government. Repup or Dem. If you want to follow the corruption in our government to it's roots, it's called no campaign finance reform. Corruption stems from money and money flows into our government from lobbiest, corporations, wealthy individuals, et al. ALL because there are no rules, or weak ones at best, to control who owns whom. Every politician is bought and paid for a hundred fold before he ever gets to the senate or house, let alone the actual executive branch.Quote:
