Well, seeing as you're not even old enough to be my mother (well barely), and my digestion works just fine unaided, I would advise you to reserve that advice for the freepers for whom it may be needed.........they're out there. TRUST me. :o)
So you meant that President Bush should have quit and not even run for reelection like LBJ??
That would have put America in REAL great shape, now wouldn't it? With a Kerry Presidency to make all of us conservatives proud and happy. Sheesh!
LOL!
George Herbert must be logged onto FR today. I prefer to think George Walker can defend himself, and hopefully can also distance himself from his dad's ideal of The New World Order.
Shades of Barbara Boxer in her 'questioning' of Condoleeza Rice! You've got the technique down pat, Paperdoll.
Does Peggy have speechwriting envy? I am surprised at her criticism. Chil out Peggy. It's W's inauguration and a godly man is going to make a godly speech. And it's America so that's OK.
LOL! Just good Christian love there, arasina. Just like Barbara feels for Condi. ;o)
Oooo! Am I supposed to be impressed? Intimidated?
I haven't the slightest idea of what the the DNC talking points are and it has never occurred to me to try to find them.
IMHO, only a very few jerks like you would.
Peggy Noonan is a former Dim/liberal. Some time ago she wrote an interesting (but tediously long) piece on how that transformation occurred. She seems to want to be acceptable to both sides and remain a viable punditress. Who knows, maybe she has applied for Dan Rather's job and had to prove publicly that she can be 'unbiased' LOL.
I feel the love. ;)
("Why disguise the true identity of the enemy?")
>He's been curiously evasive about this since day one. He's now expnded our "enemies list" from the "axis of evil" to 2/3 of the planet!<
IMHO, the enemy is anyone who is against freedom. This is a spiritual war we are in, and the true NAME of the enemy is Satan. That enemy lives not only abroad, but is alive and well within our very borders.
Isn't it time for your nap?
This is America. "God-talk" is permitted by it's leader.
Interesting perspective, iconoclast.
Your posts on this thread make extremely good sense to me.
The problems of illegal immigration and of outsourcing all our manufacturing are serious ones which have not yet been addressed by our President.
Before Bush looks to ending tyranny worldwide (I wonder what his friends in the Saudi royal family have to say about that), he should open up his eyes to the very real domestic problems facing us here.
In addition, he needs to adopt some fiscal reality. If our sons and daughters are to encircle the globe to "spread democracy" (is it "Democracy" or is it "Empire"?) who will pay the trillions and trillions of dollars this will cost?
Sometimes I think our President is pennywise and poundfoolish.
>Having a thick skin is important in forum posting<
Thank you, Dys. I have been baptised by the best of them on FR, and seem to still be hanging around the ole pot bellied stove. I call it "kickin' dirt" with my fellow FReepers.
If you want to get right down to it, maybe PN's gripe is really with GWB's speech writer. PN's written some pretty wonderful speeches herself in her time. I can't buy a jealousy streak though. Her editor may have had something to do with her piece.
Knock off the personal attacks.
name calling
n : verbal abuse; a crude substitute for argument
Two words to describe Noonan.
Intellectual snobbery living in an Ivory Tower.
I mean really. Who cannot understand what the Prez was saying in his inaugural speech. It was pure poetry in speech, even if GWB doesn't have a speaking flair.
I've lost all admiration for Noonan, who obviously thinks it rank or insulting to mention the Almighty, or to set our goals high.
I guess she would rather have listened to some income tax actuarial tables describing the out years of Social Security.
Really. Methinks Noonan has been hanging out with too many snootish bigwigs lately.
Welcome to Free Republic. (Although you've been here since September, this is the first time I've noticed you.)
I see in your profile that you love "the moon and the stars".
You seem to be quite a romantic, so I understad why you are dismayed by Peggy's analysis of the Inaugural Speech.
How man other men, besides the President, have promised you "the moon and the stars"?
