Race can be mentioned so long as anyone is permitted to question why. Which I did.

Do I detect an implication of Negro inferiority in your words?

I'm not a Negro but, if I were, I wouldn't capitalize the word. Why do you?

My guess is that you are a youngster who was weaned too early and needs a little more time in mommy's arms.

My guess is that you can't take anyone disagreeing with you. I'm 70.

Senator Leahy is a joke. I believe he has Alzheimers, but will not leave office except in a pine box feet first.

If I were Roberts, I would be struggling to NOT laugh in some of these guys' faces, especially someone like Leahy.

He has no clothes and deserves minimal respect, only as an office holder, not as a gentleman (because he is not one) and not for an intellect (because he has none).

He is the same as Kennedy, a liberal socialist Democrat HangerOn.

"Why did Charlite include his picture in her post?"

I always include the photo of an author of a piece, if it is available on the original, or if I've posted something by the same author previously and have retained the photo, as I had in this case.

"Using confusing langauge is on the TOP TEN LIST OF TACTICS LIBERALS USE TO WIN ON ISSUES THEY WOULD OTHERWISE LOSE."

I'm so glad that you said that! This is where Madame Wannabe Queen of the World is going to get the pants suit debated off of her, if we Republicans pick exactly the right candidate in 2008. Our candidate will prove, in the debates and out on the stump, that Madame Kleentoon is NOT "the smartest woman in the world," nor even close.

She and her husband are past masters at "using confusing language to win on issues they would otherwise lose." The 2008 campaign should finally expose her for what she is - an obfuscator of the worst, most transparent sort.

Char (:

"Senator Leahy has said: "The two most activist judges we have right now are Justice Thomas and Justice Scalia, who have struck down and thus written laws of their own in place of congressional laws more than anybody else on the current Supreme Court."

Bwhahahahahaha!!! what an absolute nut bag!!! The worst part is that they'll be whole new breed of stupidity generated by the left to regurgitate this poo.

Does everybody remember the joke from back in 1992 about Mrs. Clinton being on a airplane going down with the Pope, a Boy Scout and a third person....and only three parachutes?

The Pope jumps, then Clinton jumps after saying she should survive because she is the smartest person in the world...and the boy scout turns to the third and says:

The smartest woman in the world just jumped out with my backpack!

I suggest you two take this line of disagreement off line before one of you embarrasses yourself.

Double standard. Double standard. Double standard.

Oh! Did I say liberal socialist Democrats work on a double standard?

It is called a one way rachet in their minds.

Congratulations, you have regressed back to eleven or there abouts. Happy second childhood.

I didn't recognize that you were disagreeing with me. You seemed instead to be super sensitive to the mention of race. I think that is the result of political correctness gone awry and has become bullying and intimidation.

I am not disagreeing with you I am simply judging you. Yeah, I know we shouldn't do that but we do whether we admit it or not. I am happy to admit taking a stand rather than being a mellow middle mushy. I am not calling you that so no need to defend yourself.

I am 67 so I haven't regressed as far as you. :-)

If they have a brain trust at all. They are still living off the brain trust that was behind FDR in the 1930s/1940s.

Who would you say currently exhibits what one would call a brain trust among Dem Senators?

House reps?

It is all lockstep right off the cliff it seems.

Walter Williams is not a conservative by any stretch based on my reading, listening on Rush, etc.

Where would you place him?

1--Liberal

5-Moderate

10-Conservative

It's hard to say, because I've only heard him a few times when he was sitting in for Rush. Definitely not a liberal though, as far as I could tell.

I vaguely recall him saying something about not belonging to either of the two major parties, though I'm not sure what that's about. One can definitely be a conservative without being a GOPer.

What exactly gives you the impression that he is not a conservative?

Where would you put him, moderate or liberal?

It was an elegant way to say, "we must have been seperated at birth".
