sorry, i didn't see your post on krauthammer before I posted. oops.
Gore - do you think its just to throw red meat at the crowd - he's their reminder of a "stolen" election? Big Gay Al is lookng bigger and gayer each time I see him rant on tv.
Finally, a loud and clear voice of opposition against the unprovoked Iraqi war from an American statesman.It came from former Vice President Al Gore, who has given the presidential campaign of Sen. John Kerry a needed shot in the arm. Gore also could have been speaking for a growing silent majority.
In a fiery, eloquent speech last week at New York University, Gore shamed the "go along, get along" Democrats, including Kerry, who had been soft pedaling the issue of the war and the damage it has done to our name and prestige in the world.
Kerry has played it so safe that he has brought his own leadership into question.The Kerry camp is obviously not happy that a gloves-off Gore took the lead, showing their candidate up for timidity. But the vice president -- who spent years in Congress and eight years as vice president -- knows there is too much at stake in terms of depleted U.S. honor and moral authority to play politics now. It lives
Algore? God only knows why dims would want him other than to fire up the faithful. Personally I think continuously harping on the "stolen election" can't be very attractive to many people who might have been swayed to their side.
This is the kind of thinking one must posses to think algore isn't a mental case:
"Declaring war on terrorism was understandable, perhaps even appropriate, as a figure of speech but the president meant it literally and that is when things started going seriously wrong."
~George Soros at Columbia University on May 17, 2004
Two choices for summertime reading at the beach: Clinton's book or the Chicago phone book. I'll take the latter - no intentional inaccuracies.
As all probably have heard by now, Soros also equated the Iraqi prison "abuses" (committed by seven people, in which no one died, even of embarrassment) to the Sept. 11 attacks. Hmmm, okay ...
June 4, 2004 -- Money and wisdom do not necessarily go hand in hand, as they say.
Take, for example, George Soros, the Hungarian-born gazillionaire hedge-fund honcho who's been chewing on President Bush's ankles of late.
Yesterday, at a meeting of lefty activists in Washington, Soros pronounced a moral equivalence between the Abu Ghraib prison scandal and the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York and Washington.
"There is, I'm afraid, a direct connection between those two events," he declared, "because the way President Bush conducted the war on terror converted us from victims into perpetrators."
Nonsense.
But nothing new. Soros has been talking like that for weeks.
Except there was one thing a little different about yesterday's tirade: Soros was introduced at by none other than Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, who declared, "We need people like George Soros, who is fearless and willing to step up when it counts."
We? New York? America?
Or just the Democratic Party?
Until now, New York's junior senator has taken particular care not to associate herself with crackpots like Soros.
And, after the fact, her office was lightning-quick to announce: "Sen. Clinton doesn't believe that 9/11 is comparable to anything else."
Whatever that means, it's not a repudiation of Soros or his noxious message.
Could it be that Hillary Rodham Clinton has finally decided to make common cause with the Michael Moore wing of the Democratic Party?
This bears watching. Link

MSNBC describes Soros as the intriguing new star at this week’s “Take Back America” conference.
Speaking of Soros' ancestral home of Hungary, I'm reminded of what I saw on my trip to Budapest in 1987 - a monument to the Soviet Union for having liberated the Hungarian people from the Nazis. Looks like the Marxist atheist Soros longs for those good ol' days.
Thanks for that info on the news analyist.
I just knew he was dealing with a mobility problem of some kind.
If you don't want to be treated like a slut, don't dress like one, I tell my daughter and her friends. If you don't want to send a message about sex, don't dress your daughter in sexually provocative clothes, I tell other mothers. [After years and years of upbraiding men and boys for their inability to not notice that a female is dressed like a hooker!]
Do you think someone could tell Irv Teitelbaum and the old guys. Also, give him my number. I know a lot about teenagers' clothes. If I'm not home, I'm just at the mall, looking for something decent and age-appropriate for my daughter to wear. Believe me, it's not easy, and he and Victor, as far as I can tell, aren't making it any easier. Link
Beam me up Scotty.
Hi IG! whatchaupto?
the appropriate dress issue is causing extreme conflict for a friend of mine and her pre-teen daughter. My sister-n-law is so glad to have all boys. She says puberty is hard enough w/o the clothing issues to fight over.
Sounds like Susan Estrogen is telling a lot of people what to do. Quelle surprise.
I enjoy watching Susan - it seems like she's using something that causes her to get loopier, and loopier, as the day progresses, until the evening when she's rolling her head, her eyes, and looks completely ready to fall outta her chair.
Nice work with the email - very nice.
Living well isn't the only best revenge. heh heh heh!
Same ability to tell people how to do everything... See post #139
