Good idea, b'asskisser. Cut and paste. Then no one can say a word about your spelling and grammar. Bush did a superb job of providing leadership to the country during a time when panic could have reigned supreme. Kerry's ads are taking advantage of a conflict in which, according to Kerry, thousands of innocent women and children were raped, killed or mutilated. Which is worse? John H Well then, using another "defining moment" in our history, why shouldn't Kerry use images of our American dead and wounded coming back from Iraq? That's a real equivalent in bad taste and emotional blackmail. jps Would those images somehow portray a job Kerry has done? Seems like he voted to send them, but then voted not to resource them. You're talking about images of the World Trade Center? Uh, the "job that was done" in that case was American-trained Saudis flew American planes into a symbol of American capitalism. I'm hoping Bush didn't arrange that just as I'm certain you hope that Kerry didn't arrange for dead and wounded kids to come back from Iraq. jps Herring will leave no stone unturned in his flaccid attempts to rationalize the behavior of George W. Bush, probably the worst president in the history of the United States. Bush and his cohorts have done more to harm this country than the 9-11 terrorists. He's failed to capture any significant number of terrorists, he's lied about his reasons to invade Iraq, he's sold the future of our children and grandchildren down the river, he's poisoned the environment, he's divided Americans along a half-dozen fault lines, he's done nothing to alleviate the misery of the long-term unemployed, he's allowed our infrastructure to deteriorate, and the list goes on and on and on. But Bush's failures matter not to Herring and other flat-line Republicans like him. They'll vote for Bush not matter what, utter foolw that they are. And here I've been singing your praises and telling John Smith that most people aren't name-callers. John H On the 'Poco Loco' out of Deale, MD on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay! Krause, bb, basskisser and jps cannot reply to anyone with opposing view without insulting them first. You generally don't see that on the other side of the fence. I will admit that I have sunk to their level a couple of times, but only after being insulted several time in the thread. It is indeed a shame that they cannot carry on a civil discussion without having to resort to those childish name calling. You're just right-wing trash, Dennis, and therefore not worth a civil discussion. I've posted any number of times I am NOT interested in "debates" or lengthy "discussions" with the right-wing trash here. Thanks for proving my point Harry. Have a nice night. It's not *your* point, dummy. It is my oft-stated position. Thanks once more for proving my point Harry. |

Jim-- wrote: "thunder" wrote in message news ![]() Please also note that Republicans mostly disliked FDR, and the right-wing branch of the GOP actively hated and undermined him, and spread the most awful rumors they could think of. Some were outright Nazi sympathizers. Don't forget the attempted coup against FDR. http://www.webcom.com/ctka/pr399-fdr.html It is a vast right wing conspiracy. We have secret meetings every night. We even have a secret handshake and special decoder rings. I do not believe I have every read a conservative here stating he wished to kill Clinton. I have, however, read about wishes to kill Bush by a couple of loony lefties here, including the clown prince Krause. Uh, sorry, crap-for-brains, but all I wish for Bush is a speedy retirement this fall, and perhaps, if we're lucky, a tar and feathering of the idiot as he leaves town. Sorry Krazy Krause but you cannot deny the death wishes you made on our President, along with a couple of other crazies from your lefty loony crowd. Sure I can. Never made any. Sorry. Easy to say now that you have deleted your old posts. I've not deleted anything, crap-for-brains. In fact, I don't even know how one would do that, since doing so is of no interest to me. Thanks for making my point (the fact that you always reply to those disagreeing with you with a childish insult) once again. |

Your 'hiding out' argument is specious and ridiculous, as mentioned earlier. In other words, as far as you're concerned, what happens in real life, in the real world, is 'specious and ridiculous.' OTOH everything that is bragged about by the BushCo advertising moguls is 'stating a fact.' Interesting way of looking at things. Do you stub your toes a lot when you walk around with your eyes squinched up like that? Or do you just sit at home and take your walks in Bushie fantasy-land? DSK You made me laugh out loud, for real. jps I'm happy that you're happy! Thanks. You're most welcome! |

He didn't have a bunch of people on the scene to provide him immediate information. Of course, you may be one of those who proclaim he knew about the attack in advance and was probably involved in the planning. Then I could understand your position.

NO care for fellow human beings who are being murdered, oppressed, and tortured beyond belief. No self-sacrifice in a liberal for a fellow-human being, just empty words and hot air about how much they "care". -- Charlie |

It was over an hour before the Pentagon was hit, yet no air defense was prepared. The plane that went down in PA was tracked for some time, yet not taken out That plane that went down due to the heroic actions of those on board, who understood what was happening, is nothing more than knife in your hand to attack others. How pathetic is that. How contemptible you are. You'll never rise to level of those on board that plane who gave their lives for the good of others. Yours is a banal horizon, the installed in power of some political double-talker who has beguiled you. -- Charlie |

It was over an hour before the Pentagon was hit, yet no air defense was prepared. The plane that went down in PA was tracked for some time, yet not taken out All in all I'd say the presidents' actions on 9/11 are nothing to brag about Jim, we had not normally been keeping an air defense battery around the twin towers or the Pentagon. The closest air defense we had was at Fort Belvoir, VA. That's about an hour from the Pentagon on a good day, assuming the troops were loaded and ready to go. We had not been keeping F-16's on the ready rack at Andrews AFB either. Have you ever landed at National Airport in Washington, D,C.? When landing from the north, planes fly directly above the Potomac River until they hit the runway. This means they pass within a few blocks of the Pentagon. The warning time would have been about 4 seconds from the time a plane left the normal flight path. It's okay to hate Bush, but try to exercise some reason!
