Evil prospers when good men do nothing. The speaker-pelosi stench, can your nose take that?

It is not "pretty much the same" as what the Democrats want. Get real.

Yes it is. Just an amnesty. It still legalizes and eventually makes citizens out of the millions of lawbreakers that have invaded our county. There are slight differences in detail, but the main final result is the same.

YOU "get real".

How cute. Reminds me of discussions I had back in elementary school. Hey - Nanny Nanny Poo Poo!

Oh, and you are wrong - but I can see it would do no good to explain it as facts are apparently irrelevant to you.

Unfortunately for you, I've already studied the issues sufficiently to have made my mind up, and FROBL's like you aren't about to change it. Bush, the Democrats, McCain, Pence, and Cornyn are all pushing the same "agenda"---amnesty with a path to citizenship. There is only minor variation in the details among them.

Exactly - falsehoods are what you thrive on - you've made up your mind - that's why I said it will be pointless to try to engage in a rational discussion with you. You lack maturity and basic common sense.

No, I've got all the maturity and common sense I need (and more, I'm sure, than you do). As I said, I've actually taken the time to STUDY the issues. I know where the truth lies (and where the lies lie).

Now buzz off.

I did ask you to provide some substantive differences between you and the rats, as the scare tactics are getting old. The country survived eight years of the BJ king. I would suspect it'll survive two years of pelosi if we must. And since you offer NOTHING else to attract the votes of reasoned and reasonable people, oh well. I am tired of voting against, yet you offer nothing or no one to vote FOR. More's the pity.

So true. But you keep trying. You and timer are still pushing the same tired agenda as the Rats. You have NOTHING to offer but more of the same. The only difference is you have an (R) and they have a (D). The Rat party and the Rat-LITE party.

As I posted to timer:

You remind me of the Rats, now pushing the Mark Foley story for all it's worth. And you have the same thing to offer as the Rats do: Spooky scare tactics (though it IS close to Halloween) and more of the same. More and bigger government. More erosion of our rights. More use of the Constitution as toilet paper.

So just what IS the difference between you? Oh, that's right... "Vote Republican this November. Remember, we may look, sound and act like them, but we're NOT Democrats. Don't let the Democrats in or they'll act just like we are, only more so."

Sorry, my nose is too damned sore to hold anymore.

Nothing to vote FOR? The greatest boom economy in modern times, thanks to the president's tax cuts...and you don't even NOTICE!!?? Five long years ago the terrorists did their # on the trade towers...how many major hits since then? The only reason the BJ king didn't get convicted on the articles of impeachment was because alore would have been prez, a fate worse than death for the country. Admit it, you're a "perot type" : if you don't win the marble game, you go home and pout in the corner.

All four statements are true - both parties lie to both us and themselves.

I don't see the Libertarian Party doing anything.
Perhaps it's because they can't get elected higher than a town water board position?

I say again my last, for possible penetration into your cranium:

"You remind me of the Rats, now pushing the Mark Foley story for all it's worth. And you have the same thing to offer as the Rats do: Spooky scare tactics (though it IS close to Halloween) and more of the same. More and bigger government. More erosion of our rights. More use of the Constitution as toilet paper."

How about addressing the issues? The border, the continued erosion of our rights (search and siezure. gun rights, control over our own children, etcetera, ad nauseum), pissing away our national sovereignty, continued globalization, with no end in sight. Shall I go on? If not our Constitution, our rights and our NATION, what the hell are you trying to conserve? You and your useless Pubbies? Certainly none of the above!

You can stew in your own juices as long as you want to, but realistic people know that in politics you don't get everything you want. Render unto ceasar the things that are ceasar's, render unto god the things that are god's. Where have you heard that before? The mistaken assumption you make is that CEASAR is the total answer to all of life's problems. Have you no higher ideals, a higher vision? George W. Bush has....

"It's what I call Republican Disease," former House Majority Leader Dick Armey told me recently. "They want to be loved by the beautiful people. They want the editorial pages of the New York Times and the Washington Post to say nice things about them."

Dang, Dick. I could have sworn that you were suffering from that affliction yourself, seeing how you've taken to grossly insulting the border security and Christian social conservative wings of the Grand Old Party.

Guess there weren't any "beautiful people" at the A.C.L.U., huh?

I'm a small-l libertarian and a capital-R Republican. That doesn't mean I'm not frustrated with them.
