Hey Doug, where's the beef?
"Jonathan Ganz" wrote in message I don't like Lieberman that much. I can't put my finger on why. He seems off somehow. I like McCain. Too bad we don't have him now. The strongest argument I've heard so far against Lieberman is conjecture as to whether he would place the needs of Israel above those of Middle East peace? Or above those of this country. I don't think either question is valid, but that's what I've heard. Max |

Too bad we don't have him now. He is nowhere near extreme enough to win the support of the Falwell branch of the Republicans. I voted for McCain in the primary last time, but the unfortunate state of affairs is that the parties are controlled by activists and the activists tend to be extremists. That's it in a nutshell. Sad, but true. When you get right down to it, abortion is the only real litmus test for these folks...the rest is just noise and smoke. I would vote for McCain in a minute over anyone on either side, but he is like a man on an island in Washington. He is greatly respected by all in DC, but kept at arm's length by the GOP machine. He is a republican and will support Bush, but he'll never gain the support of the party bosses. There were some silly rumblings as to whether he'd be willing to defect and run on a democrat ticket. Never happen. He's conservative through and through, despite being somewhat more centrist than the religious right. Max |

I don't know about that one Max.... it was a national emergency...... no time to be reading to kids... even though it was only 7 minutes... it was 7 minutes too long to avoid his immediate responsibility to address his full attention to an attack on the nation he was in charge of. Totally unacceptable and I'm certain the kids could have done without his butchering of yet another plot line. Nope... he was dead wrong not to excuse himself immediatly.... everyone including the kids would have understood.... kinda like Nero and the fiddle while Rome burned! CM |

Your answer, while logical, was still conceptual. I'm still waiting for a bona fide reason for bailing on the kiddies. Yeah, the kids would have understood, but for many of them having the Prez read to them was something they'll remember all their lives. Max |

Conceptual... not in the remotest meaning of the word. Look Max... if you are the President and get told that a terrorist strike has occurred on mainland USA in a major metropolis! Do you really think that the first order priority would be to finish reading a children's book for the kids??!! That is way beyond incompetence..... that's total idiocy. Maybe 7 minutes didn't matter this time... it might next time.... the fact of the matter is he did not act on his immediate responsibilites... and that's the crux of it. He showed complacency then over-reacted. This is no leader... he is a puppet and has proven incapable of thinking for himself. He is viewed globally as a simpleton and ridiculed for it. How blind can his acolytes be??? It's simple... he was put in power by business [Bin Laden money as well] ....and now dances to their flute. CM |
