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. 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

What was your opinion of it?

I only saw a few clips..... but it smacked of his 'Bowling for Columbine'
movie. That, I thought, was an overly simplistic view of a rather complex
problem. It seems to me he has repeated his format with F911 and brought
several valid points to light ..... doctored up with half truths and spam
fed to liberal agendas.


I found it entertaining enough to hold my interest. I fully expected to get
up and waltz out during the movie--not as a protest, but from boredom--but
did not. I did, however, find that I had to question much of the
contentions MM made. (As an aside, isn't it sad that Michael Moore is now
known as MM, rather than that siren of the 50s, Marilyn Monroe. A pity.)
So did some others watching the flick. And I, too, found his approach to
complex issues simplistic in nature, as if things were truly black and
white. But it was an amusing show. I especially liked the clips of Bush in
his various activities.

The strongest argument I've heard so far against Lieberman is conjecture as

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

Would excusing yourself to the next generation of supposedly responsible

So has virtually every president in history. Business money is the BIG
money. What you and I give doesn't feed the volunteers at the local party
headquarters.

[Bin Laden money as well]
...and now dances to their flute.


First off, you'd better do some investigation w/r/t the bin Laden family.
They, as a group, condem the actions of their rogue brother. They are
embarrassed by him. And their business has been irreparably injured by
their familial link with him. Only one of his sisters is sympathetic to
him, and has sent him money. And I doubt if she'd be willing to donate
money to ANY US presidential candidate. Secondly, most corporate sponsors,
which may or may not have included the bin Laden family, give nearly equal
amounts of money to both party's candidates. Microsoft does it. So does
IBM and most of big oil. The list is endless.

ganz your a smuck.
finally in the end: what difference do your "politics" make?
face it: your a political idiot.

and while you sit at a distance and view this problem of the WTC as an
abstract problem in "paradise": i've got news for you: some of us lived thru
it and continue to.
how many military personnel with automatic weapons do you have on the
streets of california these days protecting your instututions?
perhaps you don't give a crap about any of that and just think life is AOK
as long as you can sail your boat.

you sit there 3000 miles away and "profess" to understand what has happened
and what is right, what is wrong,what is lie and what is truth
you ain't got a clue baby boy.

did you ever see the glass wall of an office building implode and see
anybody impaled by glass against a wall?
did you see the people jumping out of the towers?
did you see the towers fall?
did you ever smell the burning remains of your neighbors for weeks on end?
did you have the dust in your hair and lungs?
did you watch the pit being emptied of construction and human remains?
did you have jet fighters flying over your house at 3:00 am?
do you get stopped on the street randomly just because?
did you ever walk over the rubble of the world trade center
did you have to wonder where your family was at that moment and if they
would be ok?

while i am close to disdain regarding you and your view: i'll offer
something better
come to New York and i'll give you an up close and personal view of what
some of us think about what has happened

but i do hope you take me up on it.
i'll even take you sailing on a real boat.

until then: just shut the f#$k up.

opinions are like a-holes: everyone's got one.

Fishboy,

Bull****, or should I say Bu****. You've never indicated
the least interest in listening to facts. In fact, you're
obviously a right-wing wacko.

If you can't site facts, you resort to nam-calling, which
makes you just as much a smuck and a political idiot.

Do you want to rephrase your question... my politics makes
just as much a difference as anyone elses.

You think you're some kind of authority on the WTC and this
somehow makes you an authority on politics. Talk about being
an idiot!

I have no interest in your "tour" of NY. Sounds to me like
you have nothing to contribute to sailing, nothing to contribute
to politics, and nothing to do but beat your meat in public.

Go away.

Not the same at all....
Winston knew the full extent... this was not news.... it was a regular
occurence during the war!

Winston Churchill, when notified of the beginning of an attack by German
buzz bombs, told his aide that he was going to finish his cigar before

going
to the bomb shelter. He did this repeatedly, ostensibly because smoking

was
disallowed in the shelters. So can we presume that Churchill's brain was
malfunctioning as well, and that he, too, was a semi-literate idiot?

Ummm big difference.
The only one in danger here was Churchill...it was done to show his
resolve in resisting the German psychological attacks.


At the time the opposition party pilloried him for his "smoking delays" in
getting to the shelters, pretty much as the left is doing to Bush for
finishing his kiddie reading session. And the difference probably WAS big.
As the leader of the British, and a figurehead for the Allies, he was
risking his life, and the stability of his country, by his actions. Bush
risked nothing whatsoever.

Fascinating to watch the left wing radicals spin things these days. For
example, any Vietnam vet who supports Kerry is a hero, and any of them who
oppose him are liars.

Hey Doug, where's the beef?
 
Good Grief..... gf!!

You saw that live?
Through all the smoke and debris?
The world saw it via television and were collectively as appaled and
shocked.
They were backing the USA 1000% on Afghanistan... and getting Osama.

Problem is your president decided to line his pockets on the tragedy of
thousands and steer the course to Saddam when the initial goal proved to
difficult to accomplish. Then he opened his mouth and alienated half the
globe that was with him in the first place.

I'm not Conservative.... but I have some conservative traits
I'm not Liberal... but I harbour some liberal traits

I'm Canadian .. and we'll not soon forget how you turned on us when we
elected not to ride the car to the bottom of the cliff with you after
repeated warnings you were headed to a dangerous area.

Either way I know an idiot when I see one... and Bush is a spoon fed royal
idiot.
Then again Kerry.... well frankly I can't see him as much moore than a
flaccid tallywhacker for the tree huggers.

Although I would hate to see Bush reelected... you can't stop a fight and
tag a wiener into the ring... the opposition would have a field day!

You are stuck with Bush for another 4 years..... like it as not.

It goes both ways... any vets that don't support Kerry are
right wing wackos in the employ of Bu****. Those that do
are lying.

You're right! Just like there was plenty of time
to get his act together to protect us from the

like the one in August, 2001. It's ok. Cheney is in
charge anyway.
