He's more zealot-like on health issues cause he lost over 100 pounds by sheer determination, discipline and changing his approach to eating.
He set high standards for himself and met them...
Anyone who is willing to force me (or anyone else) to change their (legal)behavior is somone I will approach with my eyes wide open (and full of skepticism)
I'm afraid you and I are going to have to agree to disagree, Dear Guennie.
I hope it's an easy job and won't cost big bucks.
So, has Maxine Waters apologized to Mexico yet?
Guenie, not only is the drug smuggler walking free after assulting a border guard, having a truck load of drugs, but after he was shot in the butt, he entered one of OUR hospitals and was treated at OUR expense. Now wants $5 mil. If an American lawyer is handling his case, the lawyer should be run out on a rail, in freezing weather, butt naked, no shoes.
Granny, the democrats have nothing on their agends to improve America, only laws to weaken her.
She's having the time of her life.
The President is reviewing their case, and isn't going to be stampeded into a pardon simply because Rohrbacher and a bunch of radio talk show hosts are complaining. There are resons to look at this case carefully, inclduing the fact that the agents KNOWINGLY concealed evidence of the shooting. I will defer to the President on this one.
Regarding Huckabee: I have to go with Iowa Granny on this one. Even though I have quit smoking and am dieting to lose the weight I gained when I quit, I do NOT want cigarette taxes raised. The habit is hard to break and for some of the lower income groups, smoking is the only relaxation they can afford. If you raise the taxes we will have even more shoplifting and armed robbery, plus black market smoking. Plus, I just think it is mean-spirited.
I want no part of people who try to tell me how to lead my life by passing laws. Pretty soon they will be rationing sugar and fats, mandating daily exercise, and sending the health police around to question our kids. No thanks.
Huckabee's conversion to a healthy life-style is commendable, but I think the way to get people to change is by exhortation and example, NOT by taxes!
Not yet...she's been too busy trashing the U.S. because we are attempting to destroy her terrorist allies.
I don't doubt she will get around to it eventually...
Gee I lost my imaginary friend when my sister learned so speak. Having one at 50 something says a lot about retarding intellect. I wonder if these friends give them advice?
I just viewed some videos of beautiful musical tributes to our troops at YouTube.com, but the responses to them were so vile that it is hard for me to believe that there are Americans so filled w/hatred, one comment even going so far as to suggest that Iraqis have a moral duty to kill more Americans.
After more thought of OUR border guards in jail for doing their duty.....when they are let out and put back on duty, surly their pay will be back dated.
I imagine that a fair number of terrorists log onto YouTube, in addition to the vile left.
Not a whole lot of difference between the two if you ask me.
Thank God the men and women in uniform, past, present, and future were/are/will be there to protect this country (even the vile leftist whether they want the protection or not) because they love and believe in something greater than themselves.
Then it was followed by comments, including two "f" Americas, a comment on this is how a Nazi rally looks, and one that says a previous poster got his definition of liberalism from Fox News. And that was only on the first page of coments!
Seriously, are there leftists who are paid to infiltrate every single web site, pooping on everything that is pleasant and inspiring? I m beginning to think so.
I didn't know the guards tried to hide the shooting of the drug smuggler.
SMOKING.......AHHHH the first puff with a morning cup of coffee. That was a long time ago. I learned one cannot run every morning and smoke, and I loved running early in the morning when everything was quiet and the air was morning fresh. People tell how hard it is to quit, I had no trouble, but I did keep a pack in the freezer, just in case. My roommate finally asked me to throw it away, she was not a smoker and claimed she could smell the tobacco when she opened the freezer.
I resent all of the do-gooders who went after the tobacco companies "for the children" for as much money as they could, to be put aside for the education depts in the states, yet our teachers are still underpaid, some schools are in disrepair, kids are "unsafe" in school, so where is all the money taken from the tobacco companies???? In the general funds! If these do-gooders had given the same energy and tv, newspaper, magazine ads to illegal drugs as the have to a legitimate company, maybe something could have been done to slow down the use of illegal drugs. So instead of our kids being taken to the principals office for smoking in the bathrooms, the DEA is called in 'cause some kid is "shooting up" in the hallway.
Miss M I think I heard that some of the fast food dispnsers are now getting away from trans-fats. How dare a group of pseudo scientists tell us what we HAVE to eat?? Remember when eggs were going to kill us all, next week, because of the colesteral in the yolk? Well I for one never went along with that because GOD put more lesithen in the white. So now, after that food "scare" eggs are ok. Beam me up!
I am inclined to agree with you.
What I don't understand is - if they hate it here so much...why not get the heck out? I am sure there are pleanty of liberal communist utopias for them to wallow in.
I sure wouldn't miss 'em.

This is also a wonderful Cal Thomas op-ed about the anti-war protestors.
