Done.

I'm sorry, but every time you've posted that, it has made me chuckle and this picture comes to mind.

I don't mean to dump on Drudge .. but I have learned to wait for ALL the information before I get upset about something .. because most times it's different from what Drudge reports

Thank you for the info on the hospitals

In 1992, one factor that hurt George H. W. Bush was that he was challenged by Pat Buchanan. George W. Bush has a big advantage this time around in that he has no competition in the primary. The media knows this and is trying to stir up trouble by playing up the fact that Bush's base is unhappy with him. Some of the DU sleepers here are trying to do the same thing.

Astute analysis, Exploited, and in my opinion dead-on.

We need to keep this in mind through the coming months. There will be many attempts to divide us.

The only thing I remember after the bill passed was some Democrats calling for an investigation because the vote buying was over the line

I stayed up and watched that vote .. if I recall .. the Dems were throwing all kinds of accusations at the time

When I look up to the sky
I see your eyes, a funny kind of yellow
I rush home to bed, I sunk my head
I see your face underneath my pillow
I wake next morning, tired still yawning
See your face come peeking through my window

Pictures of matchstick men and you
Images of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you

It was SO perfect for Joe........

What amazes me about him, and a dozen or so other Bush bashers (and Bush supporter bashers), is that they never give up, even when they're embarrassing themselves.

They just keep digging deeper and deeper into idiocy, and aren't even bright enough to notice ..........

I am certainly not trying to get you banned. Considering what Jim Robinson said in #712 about thread jumping and Bush bashing, I'd think you would want to reconsider your posts over the last several days.

Actually, I believe 100% in what I've posted over the last few days. This administration is outstanding on foreign policy and I appreciate the tax cuts, but on the domestic side their spending restraint leaves something to be desired. I've stated numerous times that, while I'll be voting for Bush in November, I could foresee his actions demoralizing conservatives to the point that they do not donate as much money or time as they ahve in the past. The activism that was credited with GOP successes in 2002 is in danger of being lost for this election.

Those are predictable results considering the spending increases as of late. I think that isn't any more controversial than stating a price increase of a particular product will result in a decrease in demand. Like it or not, it just is.

Don't take it as bashing; rather, take it as an earnest attempt to point out a legitimate concern regarding this administration before it's too late. The administration adopting a more conservative stand on domestic policy, and Bush being reelected, are not mutually exclusive ideals.

They have not contributed anything new to the discussion at hand on those threads

As near as I can remember, every post I made was directly on point. I was commenting on the articles posted.

and I had not seen you post, although I will take you at your word, that you will vote for Bush regardless of your distaste for some of his proposals.

My guess is, I've posted that no less than a dozen times. But I certainly appreciate your willingness to take me at my word.

No one can get you banned, but you. Your posts and your actions are your own responsibility.

He's over at EllPeePee now

No I'm not. I posted there a few times. I see the error of my ways. Silly, silly me. I know better now.

I hadn't seen you post that but am glad you will be voting for him.

I've spent a little less time on FR the last several days as a result of the Bush bashing and so have gotten particularly sensitive to what I see as bashing. Legitimate criticism has its place.

I watched part of it too and then it just got too late at night for me.

We'll see if this goes anywhere...I sincerely hope there is nothing to the charge, but I have a feeling there is more than we've seen on television to it.

Now how cool is this??

Intellectually honest debate...no emotions...no barbs...

If others could learn to do the same, imagine how different it would be.

My memory is hazy but some Congressman who has a son running for elected office was told they would make sure he never got the job if said Congressman didn't sign the bill. What the names were was not revealed on FNC, but it was apparent they knew who the players were

I had forgotten about that. Thanks for refreshing my memmory.

Even with this 'new' information you've reminded me about, I am still suspect of Drudge. He seems to love the sensational,,, if you doubt it, go check his page right now,,,, Janet Jackson's exposed bossom is there for all to view.
