They sucked when you all were bitching about Harry doing it.
BUT, they still suck even when you on the right are doing it.
If you all want to be like Harry, go ahead.
Personally, I wouldn't want that weight on my shoulders.


You are right. It's much more interesting reading about who you, slammer
and others are going to beat up next.


Eisboch


Well, carry on then. Do what you want, Richard. It sure is ironic
though that those who did the most whining are now doing the most
posting.
--------------------------------------


Some of us are far more concerned about what is happening to this country in
a time of crisis than reading a bunch of juvenile, chest pounding exchanges
of threats.


But, it's still a free country. * *Suit yourself. *I'll do the same.


Eisboch


No, you're just concerned about the new president and that everything
he does, before it even has a chance to work, gets negated. It seems
as if, when Harry was pushing political post after politcal post down
our collective throats that none of you on that side of the fence was
concerned about what was happening to this country.- Hide quoted text -

If you read carefully you will see that we were concerened with what
happened with our country. Several of us including me and Richard also
noted problems with Bush and his crew, we tried to be truthful when we
came to the table and were genuinly concerened with the country. The
problem with Harry's posts is they were dishonest and he only cares
about himself so he did **** a lot of people off. As bad as you think
Bush was, he let the dems have a say, and most of them voted with him
on most of his agenda as it was truly bipartisan, Obama's crew has
locked the door and refuses to let the repubs or the American people
be involved in the process, despite the vows of openness and co-
operation. That is scarey and should be of concern to anybody paying
attention..- Hide quoted text -

Okay, so to what end does the 100% negative posts here serve?


Loogy, I think your position is understandable. You are a Democrat,
you voted for BO, and you see the things he is doing now to dick up
the country. You see a bill with $2billion for ACORN, to buy votes, a
few million for Pelosi's mice, a lot of money to illegal aliens
because the 'E-Verify' provisions were taken out
http://tinyurl.com/cq3pes, the lie about the Caterpillar CEO, the
failure of so many ranking Democrats to pay taxes, and you are most
likely very friggin' embarrassed.

I don't blame you.

But, you have to admit that the political posting (except Harry's,
which is just name-calling) is a lot more 'adult' than the juvenile
'I'm going to beat you up with my karate hands' bull**** that several
of you persist in displaying.

Wouldn't you agree?- Hide quoted text -

No. And how do you purport to know who I voted for?

Man, that's a big beer, meaning, it's high gravity, meaning it's HIGH
alcohol by volume!

Those that have tried it say it is a unique experience. We'll see.
The bottle I have is from the 2007 batch.
They are planning to have another release this year (2009).

Here's a pic Mrs.E. took today when she picked it up. The guy on the left
is the local Sam Adams distributor's representative. The guy on the right
is the owner of the little "ma and pa" shop store who she bought it from.
It was a big deal for him.

If you want a nice, not expensive, wine to share with Mrs. E...try:


http://www.rexgoliath.com/rexgoliath...=1007&cat_id=1


My wife discovered this at dinner during one of her business trips, and
bought a bottle for us upon her return. I'm about as far removed from a
wine expert as one can be, but I have to agree...the Rex Goliath merlot
is mighty fine wine. Nice label on the bottle, too.

I'll look for it. Mrs.E. rarely drinks but when she does, she likes good
wine.
Must be the Italian in her.

Me? I am just not that sophisticated to appreciate fine wines. I am a beer
guy, always was, always will be. Just can't do it like I used to
unfortunately.

I only drink beer on really hot summer days, and then not much of it. I
do prefer Mexican beers, though. Dunno why. I drink less wine than I do
beer. But I liked the Rex Goliath merlot. It's only about $7 a bottle at
a wine store.

My father in law loves a beer now and then, and he collects beer bottles
from the countries where he's enjoyed a national or local brew. Last
time I was at his house, he had about 100 empty beer bottles from
different countries.

My favorite alcoholic bev is a well-made margarita.
