Pinocchio, Snow White, and Superman are out for a stroll in town one
day. As they walked, they come across a sign: "Beauty contest for the
most beautiful woman in the world."


"I am entering!" said Snow White. After half an hour she comes out and
they ask her, "Well, how'd ya do?"

"First Place!" said Snow White.

They continue walking and they see a sign: "Contest for the strongest
man in the world."

"I'm entering," says Superman. After half an hour, he returns and they
ask him, "How did you make out?"

"First Place," answers Superman. "Did you ever doubt?"

They continue walking when they see a sign: "Contest! Who is the
greatest liar in the world?" Pinocchio enters.

After half an hour he returns with tears in his eyes.

"What happened?" they asked.

"Who the hell is Nancy Pelosi?" asked Pinocchio.

Is this how the "Twenty Per Centers" amuse themselves these days, as
they and their party slide into oblivion?

BTW, have you noticed that more and more Republicans are citing examples
of how the CIA lied to them and to Congress?

How's Dick Cheney doing for ya these days? snerk

It just might happen if left to their own devices, but if Democrats keep
pretending that they don't also represent republicans and independents
who may or may not have voted for them, they will go the way of the Newt
Congress and Bush II admin.

It is embarrassing to see those who support whatever party that is in
power acting like teenagers with no restraint. The silly name calling
and snerking will only make the most important voter (the independents)
consider the party currently not in power. From what I have seen,
Obama has taken the high road. You may want to learn from him.

Very true, don't disagree. I'm constantly amazed at the games that go
on in Washington.

However, if it weren't for the war and general stupidity, Bush would
have gotten away with tax cuts for the rich financed by debt.

What I don't understand is, if we were financing it with debt back
then, why were so many on the right bitching about it "being our
money" and happy about the cuts?

The entire reason Obama was elected was due to his ability to take the
high road. Look what it's gotten him. He was handed several piles of
**** and people are jumping him in the first 100 days. Dick Cheney
can't shut his ****ing mouth because he's got a legacy to protect.

Wrong, old fart breath. Eisboch was plenty critical of the Bush
administration. You just can't stand it when someone is less than
complimentary to your golden boy, your party, your unions, your virtual
marriage, your virtual real estate holdings, your virtual lobsta boat,
your virtual boating adventures, your virtual life, your "my ....... is

Not so. I voted for Bush over Gore in his first term election, and I
certainly didn't vote for Kerry.
However, as events evolved, I think I expressed disappointment with many of
Bush's policies and decisions.
I even admitted that I didn't think he was the brightest bulb in the draw.

I still don't buy all the "lying to get us into a war" rhetoric though.
There is plenty of evidence that Congressional leaders in both parties were
convinced of a potential threat by Iraq, even before Bush. That history
cannot be changed. Those that sounded the battle cries and then changed
their mind later are all forgiven by the left. Those who had to make the
decisions are held accountable and therefore get all the blame.

I even offered comments of respect for Obama, both pre and post election. I
thought he would be especially good for the country in the repair of global
relations matters. Still do, to a degree. But his domestic social and
economic ideas and policies disturb me greatly, and the more he talks the
more disturbed I become. Radical changes are being pushed that go beyond
fixing greed, dishonest companies, banks or Wall Street. Those issues
should be addressed and fixed, but not at the cost of changing the basic
social and economic structure of the country.

So, I don't preach the latest round of political talking points like you.
I think for myself.

We've been run over a cliff by the Republican Bush Administration...and
it is going to take the sort of drastic measures Obama is pushing for to
keep us from hitting bottom.

There's no way to fix the rapacious greed of Wall Street, dishonest
corporations, banks and insurance companies, et cetera, without radical
changes.

The United States has only been working for the very wealthy the last
handful of years. If we cannot rebuild the middle class and at the sake
of the greedy wealthy if that is what it takes, then there is nothing
worth saving.

I would guess that Harry Krause has done more for the Republicans than

independents to vote Reps. and I would assume in real life, than any ads

If you would like to actually influence people's decision, you would be
much more successful, if you followed someone like Eisboch. HI method
of discussion and debate is actually effective. He sticks to issues,
and even if someone disagrees with him, or his interpretation of the
"facts" they don't find him disagreeable and will be more inclined to
think about his ideas. That is the only way you or anyone else can
influence the independents, who for the last 20 yrs have been the voters
who will decided which party will be in power.

Some of us can read a road map. We don't need to be there to

You were silent when Bush drove this country over a cliff.

Not so. I voted for Bush over Gore in his first term election, and
I certainly didn't vote for Kerry.
However, as events evolved, I think I expressed disappointment with
many of Bush's policies and decisions.
I even admitted that I didn't think he was the brightest bulb in
the draw.

I still don't buy all the "lying to get us into a war" rhetoric
though. There is plenty of evidence that Congressional leaders in
both parties were convinced of a potential threat by Iraq, even
before Bush. That history cannot be changed. Those that sounded
the battle cries and then changed their mind later are all forgiven
by the left. Those who had to make the decisions are held
accountable and therefore get all the blame.

I even offered comments of respect for Obama, both pre and post
election. I thought he would be especially good for the country in
the repair of global relations matters. Still do, to a degree.
But his domestic social and economic ideas and policies disturb me
greatly, and the more he talks the more disturbed I become.
Radical changes are being pushed that go beyond fixing greed,
dishonest companies, banks or Wall Street. Those issues should be
addressed and fixed, but not at the cost of changing the basic
social and economic structure of the country.

So, I don't preach the latest round of political talking points
like you. I think for myself.

The reply to your well written post will be, Bush did this and Bush
did that.

Gotta stop living in the past and move on. We're in deep doo-doo.


It is important to drive home again and again and again just who
pushed this country over a cliff. It was...the Republicans and Bush.

Thank you.

That's not really going to help with anything. Do you have anything
else on your mind that's important?

Krause is too funny. Let him keep beating the war drums. Don't tell him
that his side won Congress and the Presidency and they now have to
actually do something besides complain.


It's the GOP that's complaining, **** for brains.

How were your mapping skills working in 2001, 2002 and 2003?

Did you foresee the ******** we'd be in?

Then your map reading skills aren't so sharp, eh?

You think the country is better off having had GW Bush for a president
vs. Gore or Kerry?

I'd say your map reading skills are for ...

That includes a good many of the righties in rec.boats.

I would guess that Harry Krause has done more for the Republicans than
any other one person.

Do you wear kaleidoscope glasses or have a drug or drinking habit?

No one in their right mind would make the above statement without
knowing that they were full of ****.

You do, don't you?

Let me rephrase that statement, Harry has done more for the Republican
party among those independents who read rec.boats than anyone.
