Yeah, he only tried to do good. I guess that makes him vile.
-- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Gilligan" wrote in message . .. "Capt. JG" wrote in message ... Well, mentally, Clinton is a teenager when it comes to sex. A high percentage of teens don't believe oral sex is "sex." Strange, but true. I find it very strange that even after all these years, Clinton bashing is popular among some people. Seems to me we have a lot more problems, e.g., people dying for no reason in various parts of the world. Perhaps our current president needs some criticism (maybe he's not getting any). -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart" .@. wrote in message ... "Gilligan" wrote "Swabbie Robbie" wrote If it makes no difference then why hide it? You don't have to divulge the Loft's name. It makes a difference to divulge it here...because this is troll world. This ends the discussion on this deal. I'm glad one person here will do well by it, besides me. Like your van thread, this is now a dead topic. Only direct e-mail on the topic and a phone call will get you more info. As to the rest of your guesses on profits, my profit and so on...all dead wrong and hugely so. Buh bye. Look like you guessed right Gilligan. Kinda reminds me of Clinton when they DNA analysed the stain on the blue dress. "I did not have sex with that woman!" And, the little boy who dried wolf so many times, no one believes him at all. I thought Clinton was a vile President. He would sure be fun to go out partying with though. |

![]() "Capt. JG" wrote in message ... Yeah, he only tried to do good. I guess that makes him vile. Ethics of Intentions The road to hell is paved with good intentions. There is an ethical premise that holds the evaluation of actions by the intentions of the actions. This idea is compatible with any standard of value. It is the claim that the consequences of an action are not important morally. Only the desired results. If morality is a guide to living, it can only be so if the outcome of action moral is in your interest. By claiming that only intentions matter, ethics becomes useless. It is left strictly as a method of evaluating the actions of others. It cannot act a a guide to your actions. The Ethics of Intentions is derived from the understanding that people who intend to harm will eventually succeed. It is a way of judging them evil by the fact that they want to harm people, not that they do. But this is faulty. It is the impending actions that are evil. The fact that the person is malevolent implies they will take the actions. But it is the actions that are destructive. A newspaper article a few years ago portrayed a mother who had murdered her young daughter. The mother had come to believe that the world was a place of suffering, and happiness was impossible. She killed her daughter in order to save her from the torment of living. Under the Ethics of Intentions, she should be praised as a hero. Copyright © 2001 by Jeff Landauer and Joseph Rowlands |

As opposed to starting a war for reasons that were untrue? As opposed to
listening in on millions of Americans? As opposed to supporting the removal of Habeas Corpus? If you're going to argue that Clinton was vile because he attempted to do the right thing, what do you say about a bunch who lie, cheat, steal, and prey on innoncents?????? My bet.. nothing. They're ok. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Gilligan" wrote in message . .. "Capt. JG" wrote in message ... Yeah, he only tried to do good. I guess that makes him vile.

LBJ???? He's dead Jim.
Which file? There are so many! Ah the Vince Foster conspiracy theory. I think the N. Koreans were in on that one. What right thing did Clinton not do? Stole from the White House? That's a new one... what, pray tell, did he steal? -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Gilligan" wrote in message . .. "Capt. JG" wrote in message ...

Oh, the blow job lie. I guess that's worse than near 3000 dead, thousands
more wounded, not to mention 10s of thousand of Iraqis dead and the whole world hating us. You're right! -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Gilligan" wrote in message . .. "Capt.
