Should we trust George W. Bush?

Gee didn't Nader make a few million off the backs of Corporate Amercian.

You missed the point. The problem with Nader isn't that he made millions. Neither is that the problem with GWB.

Do a little research into Nader, the organization he started called the Center for the Study of Responsive Law, and the history of OSHA.

Hmmmm...seems kind of funny that Kentucky Woman suddenly disappeared after my post #91 that caught her in a fib about the PCA...LOL!

You're obviously losing your mind. You haven't 'caught' me in SQUAT. You post revisionist articles concerning the Posse Comitatus Act and this is supposed to disprove what I said.....how? I posted earlier that I had to go for a while and it had absolutely nothing to do with some post from you that I wasn't even aware existed. The ORIGINAL Posse Comitatus Act didn't mention the National Guard, the Marines and the Air Force because they didn't EXIST at the time, you ninny. Our Founders realized that a NAVY could not effectively be used AGAINST the population and, thus, did not include it by name. Quite reading revisionist writings from the last hundred years and go back and read the original works.

Ok, then, explain to me why, in the 2000 GOP primaries, the front-runners were Bush and McCain, the LEAST conservative of the pack?

Media Bias would be one reason.

Let's ask deport.

[Lumberjack]

I don't have a candidate. So no, I don't wonder. But thanks for asking. Have a nice day. Ta!

[Mo1]

I know all I need to know about Nader and he made a few million off the backs he claims to be fighting ...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

~~~~This holds true rigth up to the point that this "he" starts asking for and receiving donations ~~~~

What does asking for 'donations' have to do with anything?

It's Jim's party. Get used to it. Your whining about it doesn't change that fact. No one is forcing you to pay for this privilege. It is STILL HIS forum. If you don't like it.....don't donate and feel free to find a different home. I certainly wouldn't want to spend MY time on a website with which I had such a fundemental disagreement re: policy and management.

I wish you well.

I wasn't aware that popularity was the deciding factor on whether a person's ideas and ideals are right or not.

Seems to me you'd be siding against Galileo during the Dark Ages. I mean, heck, he only had a small following, so that obviously means that his ideas and observations were wrong.

[Mo1]

Media Bias would be one reason.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm they could have given Old Harry 24/7 news coverage and I STILL would not vote for him

[wimpycat]

Galileo didn't live during the Dark Ages.

[KentuckyWoman]

Does being a "Good Conservative" mean that we have to follow our leaders blindly and unquestioningly?

According to quite a few folks on this thread, it does. As I stated in another post - Harry Browne may be something of idiot but even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Thanks for the kind support.

[Mo1]

Storm the Capital???

Ok

[KentuckyWoman]

Actually I would like to take the credit for issuing the Coup Of Grass to KantukeeWoman. But you did hit her with one... Perhaps it was overwhelming synergy that dispatched her. ...or her Parents came home.

You're a bigger idiot that the ninny who SAID she 'caught me in lie". Some of us must work for a living, go by to pick up groceries and then come home a cook dinner for three children and a husband. What time do they lock you back in your cell there at the institution, dear?

[Lumberjack]

And that has what to do with the argument? The time period/name is pretty irrelevant. What is important, though, is that the accusation was spot on. Ideas are not judged "good or bad" based on the number of people that support them. Popularity contests do not determine an ideas worth, rather only an ideas acceptance.

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

I wasn't aware that popularity was the deciding factor on whether a person's ideas and ideals are right or not.

Nice try. It's not about ideas or whether they are right or wrong in these cases.

It's about sour grapes, jealousy, frustration and all those very unbecoming traits that are hard to hide.

Please don't pull the "What's wrong with criticizing the president" line either. There's nothing wrong with honest criticism.

However, those who have tried in vain to sit where George Bush sits today and failed, have an ulterior motive for practically everything they say. Last I checked, none of them did a thing to improve my life or yours.

BZZZZTTTTT! WRONG answer! See Mulder's post #262 above:

Only eight years ago, Republicans, led by Newt Gingrich (who was deemed "unelectable" by the elites) won a massive electoral victory.

No, if "media bias" were the answer, Newt Gingrich and the Contract with America would never have won.

Losertarian Homie dont play'dat!

Only one percent went to Harry Browne. To the simple that means that nobody agreed with him but Losertarian Homie knows that it's just proof that the Man is keeping Harry Brown down!

Calling people numbnuts and moron (to name just a few)..CERTAINLY makes others want to hear you. Yep, yep!
