It was a setup, period. Next topic Harry, when you gonna' wet that

I was going to go out today, but it looks like tomorrow.


I've already spliced up four new 30' docklines and an anchor line this
morning. Gave away the old docklines with the sale of Yo Ho I. Dealer
included a new anchor and line with the new boat, but I don't like the
"hand" of 3/8" line, so I fixed up some 1/2" stuff.


I can't beleive they would give anyone 3/8 on a boat that size. Seems
almost unsafe, sounds good changing it over.


Oh, I think 3/8" dockline is adequate for tying up a trailerboat like
mine around here. We have small tides and most of the marinas are in
sheltered areas of the Bay. If a serious storm comes, you either yank
the boat out of the water or double up the lines. But my boat won't be
tied up at a dock for any length of line.

3/8" line is adequate for a fishing anchor, too. I just don't like it
because line of that diameter tends to cut into my hands when I pull in
the anchor. The 1/2" line does not.- Hide quoted text -

Well that's kind of what I was thinking, an emergency situation where
you needed some good, strong, rope control. That's a big boat to pull
around or move in an emergency with small rope cutting your hands up.
I want something I can wrap around my hand quick, and lay into.

Yeesh, you can't drive, ski or even fly with them without risking
bodily harm.

They can't cremate Teddy, his body would keep burning for too long
from being gin-soaked all these decades.


All of Ted Kennedy's sins do not add up to a pimple compared to the
horrors perpetrated on this country and the world by George W. Bush and
Dick Cheney.


Where did the Kennedy money come from?

Larry Craig has been outspoken in opposition to gay rights
issues, and
he is a "favorite" of crazy right-wing organizations, such as the
"Family Research Council."
Now it starts coming together, the guy was set up and handled it
wrong. The problem with democratic activists and paid operatives,
(and
some parker captains) is they have no problem lying or cheating
to get
to where they need to be, so which one was the cop, activist, or
bought and paid for? Of course, there is also the blackmail
option, I
would like to know if Hillary had his FBI files in her office.
Set up? Apparently Senator Craig entered a men's room known to be
frequented by those looking for gay encounters, and "signaled" a
cop in
the next stall. He admitted this, and entered a plea. Are you saying
that everyone knew Craig was going to that men's room for a
"date," and
they were waiting for him? :}
Man, you need to cut back on whatever psychotropics you are taking.
Oh, and once again, I don't care who Senator Craig diddles. It's
only of
interest to me because he is yet another example of a
right-wing-extremist sexual hypocrite.
Apparently he plead to lewd conduct, not the events as you describe
them, in fact he has stated his side of the story and it's nothing
like you said. But you just keep making up facts as you go along, your
comrades don't mind a little dishonesty when it comes to politics.
Again, no moral core, just power. Like I said in another post. I have
heard two top dems (Schumer and Lannie Davis) both in the last 24
hours admit Gonzales was a good AG, they just did not like his
politics, period. That is not democracy, that is not American.
So, tell us, and don't mince your words. What sort of "lewd conduct"
might a 62-old US Senator engage in in a men's room at an airport, a
men's room known to be a place gays use for assignations?
I'm not surprised that Craig's side of the story is different from what
actually happened. Are you?- Hide quoted text -

You have to understand my point of view. Basically I think it is
another setup, so most of the rest is moot. The vast left wing
conspiracy always goes directly at whatever cause the righty has, the
numbers just don't add up. I'm not surprised the democratic activist
cops story is what it is either, hope he got paid well for his
treason.- Hide quoted text -

Anyway, according to the report, Craig "tapped his foot in a manner
recognized by the officer as a signal for sex" !? He tapped his foot?
This was a setup, plain and simple. The guy walked in and took a crap
in the middle of a "show of force" sting on the part of the local PD.
As to the plea, it was probably a bad decision, but can you imagine if
he had gone to trial? The haters and bigots on the left would have had
a field day, probably made the right decision in that case. Just
happens one of Clintons investigators dug it up, nothing new, like I
said, if you can't win in the voting booth...


Craig did more than tap his foot.


Really, what did he do? What did it mean?

The mental contortions some people go through to maintain a
preferred world view is truly impressive.

Yes, the party of hate and intolerance has gone through quite a
contortion to read a police report about someone tapping their foot
and calling it a lewd act, surprised they did not call it rape, or
even dog fighting. We know they just make it up as they go along, the
worst part is in the face of obvious lies from their leaders, dems
don't or won't even ask, they just don't want to know.

That would be "the white man's GOP," right?

Oh, and what would you call reading in black and white records of
someone being convicted of disorderly conduct, for tapping his foot
and calling it a lewd act, or homosexual activity? Are you a mental
contortionist, intellectually dishonest, or just plain ignorant?

Craig copped a plea. He was offered the opportunity to plead guilt to a
lesser offense, and he went for it. There's nothing unusual about that.

It's kind of funny that you, Chuck, and a few Republicans (very few)
here and there believe Craig was duped.

At least we are considering the options, your party just beleives
whatever is convienient, despite any real evidence, without any real
integerity.
