I have yet to find another person as closed minded and bigoted as you Harry. Your world must be awfully lonely. |

I guess to you, lies are kinda' like air to the rest of us.. |

course none of you has anything to say about that. I guess to you, lies are kinda' like air to the rest of us.. Tracking this thing down- It appears that the O'Reilly's debate victory was more apparent to Scotty than to O' Reilly. O'Reilly's website says, "Kudos to Joel Connelly for coming on the show to defend his column, which he claimed was "satircal" in nature." Wouldn't O'Reilly have been shouting from the rooftops if he got some evil, scheming, mind poisoning, liberal to admit "dishonest reporting"? http://www.billoreilly.com/pg/jsp/community/tvshow.jsp Plenty of room for a variety of opinions in the world. If Scotty thinks JC was trounced by O'Reilly, he's free to keep score anyway he chooses. |

"Satircal in nature", yeah right. The dishonest part was that he
neglected to tell the folks he was reporting to that it was "satircal" and any of them would get a very negative opinion, based on half truths and dishonest framing of the article. Can't comment on the article, as I haven't been able to find a copy on line. (If you know where I can find a copy it would be interesting to see). A satirist doesn't start with a disclaimer: "The following work is a satire." The article may or may not be good satire. If it *is* good satire, there are people who might not read it carefully or who strive to represent the article in a certain light who will not recognize it. Good satire sneaks up on you......you begin reading it and then you finally realize that the author is just putting you on. Once you're clued in, the remainder of the article becomes particularly funny. . Are you guys all reading out of the same play book? No. The world is not comprised of a series of absolute stereotypes. (I know that isn't what you're sold by much of the right wing media, "libs this, all libs that, etc"), Everybody who disagrees with you, including the huge percentage of the country who have serious doubts about your beloved Bush, isn't guilty of treason and sedition. |

Oh boy! A quote war! :-)
Scotty launched the first salvo with: There is nothing patriotic about hating your country, or pretending that you can love your country but despise your government." Bill Clinton Speaking at Michigan State University Gould courageously fired back with: "Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official, save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country." Theodore Roosevelt ****** Now, Scotty, if you are willing to state "I think Bill Clinton is a wiser man than Teddy Roosevelt"- I guess your quote wins. :-) Here's the article where I found the quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Party loyalty is un-American -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ © 2000 WorldNetDaily.com Our first president, George Washington, warned us about the dangers of putting any political party above the general interests of the country. It would do well for Americans today to relearn this basic lesson. Our loyalty must first and foremost be to the fundamental principles upon which our nation was built, not to the finite interests of political partisanship. It is a fatal mistake to assume that any political party is the harbinger of patriotism. Theodore Roosevelt said, "Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official, save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country." My loyalty to a party or politician must be measured by his loyalty to the fundamental principles on which America was founded. When I remain loyal to a politician or party after they demonstrate an unwillingness to be faithful to those immutable principles I am guilty of disloyalty to my country. Sadly, too many people today are willing to turn their backs on truth for the sake of remaining loyal to the party. Democrats who railed for justice when Richard Nixon was president looked the other way or even defended crimes committed by Bill Clinton. Republicans who railed against Bill Clinton refuse to examine the character, conduct and positions of G. W. Bush............. (remainder snipped) (Article written by Dr. Chuck Baldwin) |

A huge percentage have serious doubt about Bush? How about far less than a majority. According to the latest polls, anywhere from 54% to 64% of Americans approve of the way GWB is doing his job. http://www.pollingreport.com/BushJob.htm Sorry Chuck...the "huge percentage" is actually in favor of GWB. ;-) |

majority. According to the latest polls, anywhere from 54% to 64% of Americans approve of the way GWB is doing his job. Never said it was a majority. Merely a huge, (rather than insignificant) percentage. Read for content, please. |
