RE: Post # 35.
Did MM say this? Sounds like something he would say.
The only reason he got this far is because of his family connections...
Wow - President Bush has 61 million relatives?! I agree the party bosses did pick him and gave him enormous contributions and state organizations up front, but in the end he had to convince people to vote for him. People forget how close he came to stumbling in the 2000 primary.
Why at all? He used falsehoods to get us into the war...
There is a difference between being mistaken about WMD's and lying. The left apparently cannot understand the difference.
He's made out to be the paragon of Christian virtue... but he doesn't worship with his fellow Christians, something the apostle Paul told us not to forsake. Why, are we beneath his dignity to worship God alongside of?
This is just offensive. George W. Bush does not attend church because he would turn every Sunday service into a militarized zone, complete with a battalion of Secret Service, snipers on the roof, regular police, ambulances, helicopters and assorted aircraft circling the church. There would be metal detectors at every exit. Men in black suits would search Aunt Tillie's purse to make sure she wasn't carrying a pistol inside the church.
To make it even more plain, terrorists have tried to kill him before. Is it fair to risk the lives of every other member of the church on a weekly basis? If Bush did attend services, he would take hordes of criticism. It would be unrelenting.
He asks the young people of America to sacrifice their time for a "noble cause" but does not ask the same of his own children.
No one should be forced to see their daughters or wives in a combat zone, period.
Why should I give him any special consideration in my prayers, when I cannot but believe that he is not even really President at all, but was put there by the schemes of others?
Because the Bible commands you to! And how is he not President?! He was elected by the voters. This fellow has let his good sense flee and exchanged it for raw anger. There is no use listening to such people.
The excellent Ben Stein does it again. If the dems and the racists realized how incredibly stupid they sound, they might be quiet for a while.
I'll take a stab at it and say Joseph Farah. He's joined Buchanan on the "impeach Bush now" bandwagon.
Michael Moore! What do I win?
Nah, any day is a good day for bashing Shrill.
Yes the Dems are playing politics in USENET while Texas republicans open their homes to the people of New Orleans.

Time to post rebuttals
Searching 'Bush mandatory' turns up this on FR. Wonder why CNN didn't keep that story in heavy rotation?

Excellent post. Ben Stein speaks the truth.
And God bless Ben Stein.
"Gone are the days when any kid could grow up believing he (or she) could be President of the United States. Sorry kid, but unless you have the right family connections and are willing to be a tool of the party, you won't be allowed to go that far. "
I guess the brainiac who wrote this nonsense already forgot about the boy from Hope, Arkansas, a mere administration ago...what a tool. Must be a writer from the NYT.
Helen Thomas
I see this personally from a relative of mine who detests my Christianity, yet he is morally bankrupt.
Was this drivel spewed by "The Screaminator"? I would expect Dean who hates white Republican Christians to come up with something this stupid.
Thank you again Mr. Stein. Such clear thinking commentary is why you are included on my home page.
"Twenty years from now, Bush will be regarded as the worst President in American history. Those who supported him, will be seen as fools. Why should I not beleive this to be true?"
This is the same crap these commies were spouting about Reagan...boy are they in touch w/ reality or what?!?!
I hope that someone gets this message to the "Poverty Pimps" like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton as well as the "Political Whores" like RFK jr and Elijah Cummings
Ben Stein kicks butt ping!
Say what?!
