I can't recite what he said after just reading it one time. Pesky thing that short-term memory at the onset of certain derangements :)). I'll see, mebbe I archived your sibling - you know, just for the record. Probably not, though. I don't think he made the grade past amusing.

I wouldn't want him chewing on MY pick!

Give the Republicans the "mandate of the people" to dump the failed liberal/socialist programs and start dismantling the federal beast. Bring about a new Reagan revolution. Make the Republicans fight among themselves as to priorities for cutting. Cut, slash, and burn. We gave them that in '94. They did nothing with it. So they lost some of what they gained.
To: dighton
I have it on good authority that Pikachu and Tinky-Winky are roommates.
To: carenot
"We gave them that in '94."Maybe I was more zoned-out in '94 than I thought, but I could have sworn that we did not have a Republican president in 1994.
Wouldn't you say that that COULD make a difference?

He didn't call them a kook.Just last week, Art became PO's and "banned" Kreskin from ever being on his show again.
Apparently Kreskin had predicted the "UFO sighting of the Century", and offered $50K to charity if it didn't happen.
When the stunt flopped, Art interviewed Kreskin to get an explanation.
When Kreskin started hemming and hawwing with multiple definitions of the word "is", trying to weasel out of his $50K committment, that's when Art dropped the bomb: Called him a fraud to his face and yanked the plug on him.
Art may be tolerant of some weird ideas, but he absolutely HATES cheats, cons and frauds.

Robinson, you've gone completely off the deep end. You ban someone for defending Billy Graham. You and your punk admin mod go after people who tell the truth about moslems. You're sick.

You are right -- we do not owe any political party a damned thing. That is not why I stay in it. However it is serious people -- not parties -- who try to shape as well as seduce a nation -- it's not the other way around as George Will states.
The Will comment came from a late 1970s column regarding party platforms and campaigns, as I recall. And while I grant that a party is only as sound as the people therein, we do not pull the lever by virtue of the people in the parties - we pull it for the candidates of those parties. It is thus among other things which provoked me to concur in the present context with the Will comment. And when today's Republican Party (well, the Republican Party as it has been for a shamefully long enough time) talks the talk but does not walk the walk, one questions the seriousness not merely of the party but of the preponderance of people therein, no personal criticism intended. Certainly people who settle for what amounts to a "win the vote now, stand on the principle later" cannot and should not be taken seriously in any party.
The majority of the Constitution loving people are in the Republican Party. Therefore, there is no reason to leave it.
We don't have to leave it. It seems more to have left us.
..If you can't win a Republican primary with ideas and principles derived from the Constitution, then you will never be able to win a general election based on these same principles.
They do win primaries and elections when those are run upon. But then they must take up the serious business of government and my, how those principles go the way of the Edsel. Translation, once again: They talk the talk and they do not walk the walk. And guess who the suckers prove once again?
The road to Damnocratic hell is paved with Republican't good intentions.

Gave up? --- Who ever gave in?

I'm not going to say it. I'm NOT going to say it. I'm not I'm not I'm not.

Sir, my compliments. That pretty much says it. Unfortunately.

OK, so please explain why you banned 'Clinton's a Liar'? I have met Connie and can't imagine she'd do anything THAT bad. She works for Alan Keyes for crying out loud!
Jim, I hope you will respond to this and hope you don't ban me for asking.

I have never wanted your approval, my liege. - I doubt that many here have.
Simple respect for my honorable constitutional intentions would do. - But I won't hold my breath waiting.
