Not going to happen. People were talking the same thing about Clinton. Nobody was saying that about Clinton. They tried to convict him for lying to Congress about a blow job. Not exactly worthy of high crimes and misdemeanors. As for the war effort in Bosnia, and in Somalia, it's nothing that other p
It's been nice getting to know you, Dabe. Thanks, Dharma. As for the education stuff, it's been a hacking away at Pell Grants. Even though the bushies boast more spending, they have not kept up with inflation, and they have changed the requirements wherein upwards of 100,000 people no longer qualify
We have much in common in out backgrounds, both personally and politically.Thank you for writing this. Mano, we do have lots in common, and way more than I am willing to post here, no doubt. Thanks for your comments.
Guy, my anger is not misdirected. In fact, EPA and the Corps have absolutely nothing to do with coastal developments, other than storm damage protection. And, EPA is not involved at all. And, I do agree that the Corps' mission is property protection, which is very much exclusive of environmental protection. But, we're working on them. Wearing them down, hopefully. The federal flood insurance program does have lots and lots to do wi
I have decided to take moderateman up on his request that I write something about myself. Granted, it will be a rather filtered take on my life. I am making this article free of comments. It is what it is, and I am who I am, and I have no use for the bitches, racists, neocons, or the self-proclaimed self-righteous bloated egos around here to question my beliefs on t
Whatever, guy. You and I will never agree. I am not 180 degrees wrong. My opinion is not "wrong". And, it's fucking disingenuous to compare me to the likes of Nambla, you asshole. I hope that you never rise above the idiotic paeon that you are to have any say whatsoever in our judicial system, beyond your vote. You scare the fucking shit out of me. You and your beloved dipshits who think that removing our individual rights, based on your freakin
This newspaper article pretty much sums up why I hate this administration. It's not that the dubya dummies created all these messes, but rather that they refuse to address the issues. They refuse to acknowledge that there are issues. They just parrot these lame and lazy reasonings as to why the US is such a grand nation, the best on the planet, then do what they ca
Where in the constitution does it infer that an appointee needs to have studied constitutional law? Oh!, it doesn't because when the founding fathers first wrote the constitution there was no one familar with and how things would work out. I think this i a good point, and one that follows what I had rea
You are the one that blames everything, including the cruxifiction of Christ, on Bush. Well, he did it, didn't he? I know you are not talking about me. </TABLE
thanks, Lee for the links. Of particular interest is that the two cases cited in the findlaw website, which are also cited in the New Yorker involve issues of executions of juvenile offenders and homosexual sodomy. Intereresting that we would think that these kinds of cases involve writing foreign laws into US Constitutional law. In fact, I find it rather ridiculous that such is the interpretation. Rather, the comparison of other western na
Draginol: What is really sad is that given how pathetic Bush is, the Democrats couldn't muster anyone better. Can't say I disagree. Daiwa: Lot of folks disappointed wi
Since you automatically believe Bush, his cronies and anybody remotely conservative lies ever time they open their mouth, I would not expect you to believe them when they say Meirs will read the Constitution and not rewrite it using foreign laws. This is absolutely true. However, I was referring to her
Seems that according to CBS, dubya dumbass' ratings are hitting new lows. Before you all get all wadded up that polls are meaningless, I'm sure that if it was the other way around, you'd be posting the results every freakin' day. So please, spare me the hypocrisy. In fact, the neocon loving hypocrites are a distinct minority in this country now. About goddamm time
But, she's not a Constitutionalist judge. She's not even a judge at all. She has never been a judge. And, the Constitution is not her forte. In fact, she is a corporate trial attorney. She's a corporate shill. And, were she not a friend of dumbya's, she would likely have been the last person selected for the Supreme Court. If we want the best and the brightest for SCOTUS, we're not getting it with her. She's is nothing but yet another dumbass
And, the fact that dipshit blindly patriotic bushie lovers like his crony picks, is good enough for me to question the both the sanity and the morality of the entire bunch of the blindly patriotic dipshit bushie lovers.
Terp, do you not care about her crooked record? Or, are you so in love with the bushies that you just don't care? In fact, this has absolutely nothing to do with roberts. But, somehow bringing up miers' lousy record wherein you turn around an blame the roberts confirmation reminds me of how you bushie lovers bring up clinton every time someone points out dubya's failings. Amazing.
Dubya Dumbass did it again. He found yet another crony to hoist and foist upon the American people. This time, it's none other than Harriet Miers. Ya wonder how he finds these idiots, how he dredges from the bottom of the cesspool to come up with such crooks, but it's really second nature to him. That's where the dubya dumbass resides. In fact, Miers was head of
Thank you both for your replies, and Kingbee for linking it to his original article. I was just over there, and eric the glib is still insisting that he'd swim rather than wait for food. Well, goody goody for him. I suppose that makes everyone else ........ errr ......... how did he say it?.......... oh yeah, "used to being taken care of." What a glib, derogatory and sanctimonious statement. I somehow get this sense that if a wealthy comm
Yeah, COL, it's a heckava good job the bushies are doing. What a way to run a business........ NOT. I suppose, if this was the private sector, and dubya followed in bro neil's footsteps, he'd try to get a government bailout, akin to the Savings & Loans debaucle. But alas, this is the government, so no bailout is available. Oh wait!!! Yes, sell it to the American people that national debt is a good thing and it stimulates the econ
This is a reprint from a reply in Kingbee's article "What REALLY Happened in New Orleans" Link Because I am banished to my own blog for calling stuff like I see it (but that's another story), and therefore unable to reply in that thread, I am forced to respond in my own blog. My response: HOLY
Yearly US Budget Deficit or Surplis 1961-2004 (in $Billions) Note that is is constructed using data from the Congressional Budget Office's own website. Very teling visual about how voodoo economics, ie or aka Trickledown, ie or aka Reaganomics, is a proven failure. What's missing here is a visual showing where the money went. That is, based on the voo
And, one more thing. My friend does not hate Mormons. He hates neocon-loving republicans. Very big difference.
Yikes! I struck a nerve. But, I knew I would. And, manopeace is absolutely right. My friend never said anything about official endorsement. He only talked about his own personal experiences and observations.
L'Shana Tova!! As this New Year coincides with the Holy Month of Ramadan, may our two peoples celebrate together and learn that Peace is possible. Steve, you give me hope.
I found this exchange kind of interesting. I'm sure you all will, also. :-) This pretty much speaks for itself. Needless to say, particular personal stuff was removed.
