More meat for the whiners
Bill , I agree with everything you said.
I voted for Chaney and GWB, and I threw that little jab in there as a saterical joke. If I could, would I vote for them again? Depends on what's on the other side of the fence[s] But regardless...You're right! Calif Bill wrote: wrote in message oups.com...

Yes, but you also have to look at the business morals of the person. The POTUS is a CEO of a large, powerful corporation, so the fact is you need leadership ability. As to Governor, you also need one from a state that has a powerful governorship. Texas is not one, but you also have to look at the leadership of the person as a Governor. Clinton was also a governor, and Arkansas is a one party state, that is backwoods. He also was a crappy POTUS. He had the charisma, and brains to be a great POTUS, but he failed to use his brain, and tried to run the country like Arkansas. Surrounded himself with halfassed advisors, and looked at what a poll said instead of making an informed decision. Sort of 'Mob Rule'. |

Doug, you seem to consider anyone who disagrees with what you call 'an argument' is a 'Bush-Cheney Cheerleader'. That's nonsense. Yes, it is nonsense. The people who are avidly and unblinkingly pro-Bush/Cheney, who will make any untruthful assertion to support the current administration, and who get angry at any criticism of them no matter how truthful or justified, are Bush/Cheney Cheerleaders. You should know, you seem to be one. ... I'm sure as hell not a 'Bush-Cheney Cheerleader' Actually, you sure as hell are. For example, when asked to name a few positive accomplishments of the Bush Administration, all you could reply with was insults & abuse of any who asked such questions. This happened repeatedly. ... One does not have to like Bush to have voted for him. For God's sake, look at what the alternative would have been! Well, there you go. You are a Bush/Cheney Cheerleader. The alternative would have been much better. Have you done any boating yet? Yes I have. Why do you ask? DSK |

I am a not a Bush cheer leader. This administration sucks. It's really funny that you, who consider Zell Miller a good Democrat, and have often hurled some of the worst insults at people criticising the Bush/Cheney administration, insist that you're not a Bush/Cheney Cheerleader. Somebody call Rove, tell them he really has lost the base. ... Kerry, was proposing a couple hundred million increase in social spending. You said a few days ago that Kerry had no proposals? Which is it? .... He was going to raise taxes on only the top 1%. You think his wife would like that. I don't know; but that would be a private matter, wouldn't it? Are you insisting that relations between a President and his wife (or, as may happen, between a President and her husband) are more important to the country than that President's conduct of his professional duty? .... He was the top fundraiser as he had the DNC behind him. Yes, after he won the primaries. .... I voted for Badnarick. Funny you should say that. Baradnick got a miniscule percent of the vote, I wonder if yours was counted? In any event, all your statements tend to show that you are an avid & utterly uncritical fan of President Bush. ..... WE as a people need to vote out 90% of the incumbents and tell the ones coming in to correct their retirement plan! Agreed. They should correct their medical plan too. Another option is to simply pass a Constitutional amendment that any retirement or insurance benefit conferred upon Congress must also be applied to all citizens. I like the proposal that all Congressman have to do their own taxes, get audited every year, and pay double penalties. They would simplify the tax code very fast! .... DSK, you are so much a Yellow Dog Democrat, that you would never look at the candidate except for a 'D' after their name!!!! Do you consider that an insult? In any event, it is certainly not true. I am a registered Democrat because in the rural Southern county where I first registered to vote, there was no Republican Party. I could have registered as a Republican but I would not have had a vote in the primaries or most of the local elections. Over the years I have voted for whomever I considered the best candidate. That has included Republicans, Democrats, independents, and unaffiliated. I have never tried to justify voting for one candidate because of a public campaign of hatred & despite against the other one, and you and John H have both done just now. Maybe that's why I have never felt ashamed of how I cast my vote and tried to lie about it. And if you ever read any of my boating posts, you'll know my name. DSK |

Turnout was higher in 2004 (55.3%) than at any other time since 1968 (60.8%). The highest turnout in the last 5 decades was 1960 (63.1%).

Still a sore loser, and you weren't even born yet, were you? ;-) By the by, there is no doubt that Mayor Daly was a corrupt political hack, but it would have taken more than Chicago to change that election. Kennedy's EC votes were 303-219. Illinois, at the time, had 27 EC votes. Do the math. |
