If you like McCain, I wouldn't be bringing up Grant. While Grant,
himself, might have been clean, there was considerable corruption in his
administration, oh, and allegations of anti-semitism.
I think he's just comparing candidate to candidate, especially looking
ast Harry's overly bogus post on McCain's "unacomplishments. "

"got himself shot down and taken prisoner?"
Harry, is that really how you think?

If so, then Icepick is right.
this DOES sound desperite for the DNC.
Tim, the man has often called me stupid for getting drafted. Yes, that's
how he thinks. Noble of him, yes?
If you are stupid for being drafted, I wonder what he thinks about
someone who volunteers to dig ditches for the Marines?


LOL!

That's a good comeback line which I've never thought of.

"I might be stupid for getting drafted, but I'm not so stupid that I
volunteered!"

After a few beers, that line could start a pretty good bar fight.


Could drive a wedge between Krause and his sock puppet Jim H too.
Imagine; insulting Jim H's only source of pride.


Nah, the bond of followship is too close.
