What "Dennis" believes:


Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's
daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him
and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden"
diversion.

Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but
trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international
harmony.

The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our
highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against
Iraq.

A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but
multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind
without regulation.

Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary
Clinton.

The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in
speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.

If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.

A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies,
then demand their cooperation and money.

Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing
health care to all Americans is socialism.

HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public
at heart.

Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but
creationism should be taught in schools.

A president lying about an extramarital affair is a impeachable
offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which
thousands die is solid defense policy.

Government should limit itself to the powers named in the
Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the
Internet.

The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but
George Bush's driving record is none of our business.

Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a
conservative radio host. Then it's an illness, and you need our
prayers for your recovery.

You support states' rights, which means Attorney General John
Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have the
right to adopt.

What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national
interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.



That's about it, right, Dennis?

OK Harry, so Bush is a weasel. I am neither a Republican or Democrat, but
like many, I'll vote for Kerry just to get rid of the dimwit. I basically
agree with everything you've said here. What I don't understand is what a
somple mind is, and how does that apply to boating?

A "somple mind" is one that can't figure out that it should have read
"simple mind" without asking in a newsgroup forum. It applies to boating
because Harry thinks us boat'n types need lessons from him in who to vote
for. (We're Somple-Minded)

Harry is a simple mind. No one will talk to him in real life, he is
embarrassed about his wife's career choice and his choice in boats, so he is
forced into cut and pasting news articles in rec.boats.

Pretty sad isn't it.

Oh gee, I get it. I guess a somple mind would also apply to someone who
doesn't recognize a toungue in cheek jab, and actually goes to the trouble
to explain it to a presumed inferior.

I tongue-in-cheek your tongue-in-cheek jab, and raise you 2 giggles and a
guffaw. Your bet.

I think you're bluffing, but I'm somple-minded, so I'll fold.

Why? Do you not agree with the below? Please comment on each item
then, instead of just carpet bombing it.
