See 'Sinnard's' letters. He/she is either a GOP dead-ender or a Naderite jackass. Certainly we all should know that if Democrats kiss corporate ass ten times, and the GOP 100,000 times, they are the same.
How about not getting suckered in, all you 'security moms' who voted for President Sociopath in 2004? Wake the hell up and realize the GOP couldn't give less of a shit about kids unless they're still in the fetal stage, and only then to raise money from the rubes. Try taking a look at conservatives' position on regulation and trade. To paraphrase Bill Maher, companies that can do what they want to max profits will make toys out of poison and shit. But you go ahead and believe the GOP is "tough" and "strong" and will "protect" you and your precious offspring. Just make sure you have health insurance ... which of course you might not.
Well, you know. This is pathetic, angering, frustrating as hell. Dems wonder why people think they're weak. Not taking your own side in a fight might be one reason. Also questionable is the concept that bombing a bunch of countries makes you 'strong' against terrorism.
Al Gore wore a brown suit once. And John Edwards is rich.
For God's sake, Scherer, why don't you people just make a macro of the phrase and save the keystrokes? On top of that, anything Edwards can do to stop the Hillary madness is welcome by me. Him or the O-Man; I don't care. Anything but Ms. 'Lobbyists Are People Too' with her groundbreaking health care plan: "I'll reward insurers for innovation." And as much as I can't warm up to 'Mudcat,' he's right about some blue states. What a freaking disaster in the making. You can see Hillary's loss coming like Katrina was visible from the moon.
Bet on it. It takes all the resiliency I possess to keep supporting this collection of dickless wonders ... but the alternative is too horrible to consider.
... you'll love Rudy!" Or Fred, or Mitt, or whatever goofball the GOP offers up. Simple, direct ... all the stuff Democrats aren't. I PRAY they take Westen's advice (and my humble offering)and tag every single statement and ad with this line.
Ever since they gave some to Thurman Munson.
The guy made Hernandez look like Dick Stuart. In 1972, the Dodgers' "Million Error Infield" would have been multi-million if not for Parker. Garvey at third had fans wearing helmets in the seats behind first base ... then add Bill Russell and Bobby Valentine, as I recall. Ug-lee.
"If you liked Bush, you'll love Rudy" (or whatever hairball the GOP coughs up. Gotta tie these ass clowns to their king.
Reiterated in August 2000.
Cheney reiterated his position again in August of 2000 on Meet the Press as Bush's VP nominee:
CHENEY: I don't, Tim. It was–and it's been talked about since then. But the fact of the matter is, the only way you could have done that would be to go to Baghdad and occupy Iraq. If we'd done that, the U.S. would have been all alone. We would not have had the support of the coalition, especially of the Arab nations that fought alongside us in Kuwait. None of them ever set foot inside Iraq. Conversations I had with leaders in the region afterwards -- they all supported the decision that was made not to go to Baghdad.
They were concerned that we not get into a position where we shifted instead of being the leader of an international coalition to roll back Iraqi aggression to one in which we were an imperialist power, willy-nilly moving into capitals in that part of the world taking down governments. So I think we got it right, so suppose it's one of those things that'll be debated for some time. But I thought the decision was sound at the time, and I do today. [Meet the Press, 8/27/00]
Of course that was before "The Day That Changed Everything," patent pending.
And when we nominate Hillary for her certain loss 40-state loss, this is what we'll get. WAKE UP DEMOCRATS WHILE THERE'S STILL TIME ...
I gave you a hard time about Nader in the other story ... but this time I was thinking the same thing as you. Obviously Elvis was a huge eater early on, and stayed skinny, but it all caught up to him on the inside ...
To the GOP. Come on, Joan. You don't have to be a 'conspiracy theorist' to know this country will not elect a woman in 2008. Yet we blithely sail on toward the cliff. And the day after the election, Hillary voters will wonder why. SHE'S A WOMAN, AND THIS IS AMERICA ... THAT'S WHY. And say hello to President Rudy.
Demonstrated by whom? Are you telling me that of 100,000 Naderite jackasses who voted for that egomaniac in Florida, ONE THOUSAND OF THEM -- one out of every hundred -- wouldn't have voted for Gore and made the difference? Please. That's utter nonsense and you know it. That prick should roast for what he did.
When he told us Bush was a "compassionate conservative." I'm just some guy in Pennsylvania and I knew anyone coming out of the Texas GOP in 2000 was either a religious loon or a giant fake, and in this case, Bush was both. But of course, it was AL GORE who would 'lick the floor' to be President, as Man-Love Matthews once said. These two sociopaths Rove and Bush have no reflection in a mirror, and the national press fondled their groins. Thanks again, by the way. You and Nader gave us this tragic mess of the last seven years.
Check the 2006 results, doof. And the polls.
