Is anyone of the Democratic persuasion welcome here, or are you crazy Republicans going to kick me off? Do any of you know how freaking ridiculous things are getting with George Bush in office? Let's do the list: assaults the environment, rising unemployment, rising gas prices, rising hatred of us across the globe, a phony war with over 700 Americans dead, POW torture, overtime pay almost done away with.....the list goes on and on. It's CRAZY.
Name one.
rising unemployment
Unemployment is falling
rising gas prices,
It's summer, Enviro's have stopped any attempt to increase supply, China and India are now competing with the rest of us. Supply and Demand, can't blame that on Bush.
rising hatred of us across the globe
..of Jews, thank your European National Socialist and Muslim for that. Face it, sometimes it's good to be hated. It means you are pissing off the right people. Try standing by principle and see if you are universally loved
a phony war with over 700 Americans dead,
What's phony about it? How was Kosovo justified? Are yuo going to say Iraq had nothing to do with Terrorism or even Al Quida. Ever hear of Salman Pak? Abu Nidal?
POW torture,
Are you talking about Jessica Lynch, or a bunch of humiliated chauvinistic insurrectionists who got caught up in a overglorified Frat party?
overtime pay almost done away with
Had you actually read the bill, you'd realize that the same number of folks would be getting gov. mandated OT as before.
.....the list goes on and on.
BS goes on forever. It's CRAZY.
Mother nature has destroyed more enviornment with every wildfire then humans are doing. You complain about the environment at the same time complaining about oil prices. Do you see the irony in that?
rising unemployment,
Plain wrong.
rising gas prices,
Drill ANWAR, Gulf of Mexico and the coast of California like a $2 hooker. Create a single blend of gas, build more gas refineries. It's called supply and demand.
rising hatred of us across the globe,
If they don't like us then how is that our problem? France has hated us for a long time and I don't care. When hatred turns to murder, then I have a problem.
a phony war with over 700 Americans dead, POW torture,
Funny how not even democrats aren't even complaining about the "lack" of WMD evidence. Why aren't they still complaining about this? Yes, 700 Americans died. They died fighting terrorism. Over 3000 Americans died on 9/11 because we didn't fight terrorism.
overtime pay almost done away with
A republican controlled congress shot this down recently.
Crazy, ain't it?
Maybe like John Kerry, you will blame what you said on speech writers and you said something you didn't mean to say because of those speech writers.
Dat you Moby??
No, not until you repent.
Of course. Zell Miller (D-GA) types are more than welcome here; if he were the mainstream, Democrats would have a chance. Actually, he is in the mainstream--of the Republican party. You, sir/ma'am, are no Zell Miller.
, or are you crazy Republicans going to kick me off?
Republicans aren't crazy (most of us, anyway), but we will give you the boot if you're a liberal. And you are a liberal if you think Republicans are crazy.
Do any of you know how freaking ridiculous things are getting with George Bush in office?
Yes we do, let's start with that awful prescription-drug bill. It'll bankrupt an already deeply indebted country. I wish we could reverse it. But you don't always get everything you want.
Let's do the list: assaults the environment,
I haven't heard of any attributable to Bush. All I see is Democrats stonewalling the president's attempts to improve air and water quality.
rising unemployment,
huh? Unemployment is falling, except in blue states run by Democrats!
rising gas prices,
Okay! Blame Bush for encouraging the Chinese to get their economy running by converting to capitalism. Their booming economy is demanding petroleum. But this is a good thing for the Chinese people. Think of all the opportunities that they now have.
But again, the Democrats are at fault. We need to increase petroleum production, but the Democrats fear that they might offend a porcupine caribou with the sight of an oil rig. That's ridiculous! Caribou can't vote, and they haven't been harmed by oil drilling thusfar. So let us increase production. We also need to temper demand, but the most urgent need is to increase production--last year--but Democrats blocked it, again.
rising hatred of us across the globe,
So, wow, those who want us dead really hate the President for trying to protect the American people. But we have forged closer relationships with our numerous allies. Most Iranians and Iraqis love us, as do Britons, Polish, Spaniards, Italians, Israelis, Indians, Mongolians, Filipinos, Thais, Japanese, Mexicans, and others too numerous for me to list here. We would not have 34 or more countries sending troops to stand beside ours in Iraq if they hated us. But the terrorists do hate us; we're trying to stop them from killing you.
a phony war with over 700 Americans dead,
That war is as real as those dead American heroes. And Americans aren't alone among the dead; our dozens of allies stand with us and fight with us.
POW torture,
It's awful, yes, so even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while.
overtime pay almost done away with.....the list goes on and on. It's CRAZY.
Not true. No basis in reality.
But I've been here a long time and learned a lot so let me give you some advice.
If you're here to lecture, leave immediately.
If you're here to hear another point of view, or to hone your debating skills, you'll have a great time.
The Clintonistas are currently too busy sandbagging John Kerry at the moment to be bothering us. She's probably calling into CSpan several times a day claiming "I voted for John Kerry in the primary, but..."
