the dumbest bitch in America? "It's not a tax increase, it's
eliminating
a tax decrease?" She actually said that.. Pfffftttt. Dumb empty
headed
moron... Watch Harry defend this by making a comment about me,
proving
he may be even dumber than the plastic surgery test dummy...

You are really an offensive oaf.

Hehe, typical lefty response.

I used to be one of you... until I met harry. He's a disgrace and an
embarassment to your party.

I doubt were ever a liberal or progressive if you think calling
someone, esp. the Speaker of the House, a bitch is appropriate. She,
like the others in Congress, is a politician. I guess there must be
some sort of double standard because she's a tough woman. It's just
politics if if it's a guy, but if a woman speaks up, then she's got
to
be a bitch. Typical macho bs response.

Let's just call her what she really is: A power hungry bitch.
Should include Boxer in that catagory too. Must be something about the
California climate that makes them bitchy.

Nope, there is a difference. Pelosi is a bitch, but not a stupid bitch.
But Boxer is also stupid. But she runs as a Dem, so she keeps getting
reelected.

You guys are really out to lunch without a bucket. You've gotta be right,
right? No matter what. No matter if 45K people die every year. No matter
if
you're lied to by the right-wingers on Fox and talk-radio. You can't do
your
own thinking for yourself. Such a waste.

It's part of their "all stupid all the time" credo.

I just don't get it I guess. I don't really think it's stupidity. Someone is
typing. Is it fear? That at least is understandable. I was reading somewhere
about Cheney's motivation (besides simple greed). He was frightened during
9/11, which is totally understandable. We all were. But the gross reaction
is what I don't get. It's as though all other factors in an equation are
simply missing.

When Bush/Cheney took office, they inherited few problems from the previous
administration. Sure, there were some, but nothing like what other
administrations have inherited, so I can see how they could be a bit
complacent about the bad guys, and mostly focused on their domestic agenda
(don't get me started on that).

After the attacks, the whole country supported the Bush admin. We were all
afraid, sort of duck and cover every time a plane went over. Ok. I get that.
During WW2, the same basic thing happened, including the Japanese
internment. But, in many ways that was much more of an existential threat
than a small organization in the middle of nowhere. Sure, they're dangerous.
No doubt. We needed to go after them. We went after them. Then the focus
shifted to Iraq.. wrongly, no doubt. But, the fear that Bush/Cheney felt...
they forced that down the throats of lots of people... perhaps willing
people, people who are either quite susceptible to it or who had underlying
fear.

It's an unthinking fear, a fear without any solid foundation in facts.
That's the truly scary part when I read some of these people's posts.

I'm usually a hopeful person, and I'm hopeful that there would be something
that those of us who are not constantly afraid can do for those who are
fearful.



Sorry...it's stupidity... :)
