OK...let me get this straight: We have a president who (among other
tricks)


OK, you've completely lost me on this one. I'm looking up the
spelling
of
"tangential".

I don't recall ever seeing that quote, I have no idea of the
context --
which is crucial with a GW quote, as you're well aware -- and I can't
see
any way that it is relevant to my comments. maybe it's the Easter
ham.



I don't celebrate Easter, so no ham today. I had fresh trout for dinner,
baked with a sprinkling of fresh wild garlic from alongside the stream
where
I caught the fish. If my mother was right, all that fish makes me a
genius
for another day.

Here's the quote you say you never saw. I provided it for you 3 messages
back:

"Those of us who spent time in the agricultural sector and in the
heartland,
we understand how unfair the death penalty is." George Bush, Omaha,
Neb.,
Feb. 28, 2001

I can appreciate how context may affect the meaning of words. So,
enlighten
me. Provide a LIKELY context in which this statement would NOT sound
like
GWB was pandering to the audience in front of him at the moment.


OK Doug. In typical liberal fashion, a portion of that quote was removed
to
fool liberals into believing Bush was pandering to an audience.

Here's the original quote:
"And those of us who have spent some time in the agricultural sector and
in
the heartland, understand how unfair the death penalty is -- the death tax
is, and we need to get rid of it. "

He misspoke...and then corrected himself. The quote was about the "death
tax"...not the "death penalty".

Feel stupid now that you were duped so easily by the liars on the
Democratic
websites?


OK. Let's try this hypothetical version:
"And those of us who have spent some time in the automotice manufacturing
sector, understand how unfair the death penalty is -- the death tax is, and
we need to get rid of it. "

Or this:
"And those of us who have spent some time in the commercial fishing sector,
understand how unfair the death penalty is -- the death tax is, and we need
to get rid of it. "

Pandering.


Could the death tax on a farm be a bit more than that on a Ford? I think so.
