"It's hard to forget the demise of Hillary's lawyer/lover Vince Foster ..."
I bet he was not her lover. He was the guy that knew the truth about her lesbian connections.
There is also a tendency to think that the contemporary world has always existed. I have visited a Lot of isolated communities in various places in the world, and the ability for the uneducated brain to imagine what is not present is limited.
For example, more than once people who lived on small islands in the Pacific asked us how big is the island of America.
I am sick of Chaffee. He makes Voinovich seem a genius.
I put more total prayer time in during that limbo of time after the 2000 election between when Dubya won and the "recount" of votes confirmed it, than the total of what I'd clocked all of my life up to that point, and I have always prayed fairly often! Thanks for the reminder, mountainfolk, to pray fervently for this upcoming election. I have just created a post-it note and stuck it on my computer so I'll remember.
Another prayer I try to say at least once daily in addition to my requests that He bless Dubya with wisdom, popularity, victory, courage, and strength: Lord, bless President George W. Bush with eloquence and good timing. Amen!
"Guys like Kurt Weldon are like silver bullets and wooden spikes to the Clintonistas they know they are dead if they get any where near where he is."
I agree and I think that's why they're going after him now and why they've (my guess some Clinton holdovers) are trying to hide and are dragging their feet on and 'pooh'ing' Able Danger
I lived on Tutuila of American Samoa for a few months as a teen. A 16-year-old native who had befriended our family said that she was going to go to college in Los Angeles -- could she live with us while she was a student, she wanted to know? We explained to her that we'd love it, but Los Angeles was more than 200 miles away. She laughed it off when we explained that she couldn't drive the distance daily. "Of course I can! You'll see," she said. Then it occurred to us that her entire life had been spent on an island roughtly 26 miles long by ten miles wide. She had ZERO conception of the reality of 200 miles of land mass.
LOL! I think that is a PERFECT idea!!
"but didn't seem to seek treatment until the fall. hmmm.
I didn't realize that, TG. Thanks for the info."
I don't know which of the numerous treatment regimines he had, do YOU?
I had radiation shots 5/week for 5 weeks before I had radioactive seed implant. Total time period was over 7 weeks. PSA currently .01 and stable.
One more day in the books, God. Thank you!
Severity determines treatments available. One treatment is "watchful waiting". That is wait for a while and see how the cancer progresses.
Another can include 'chemical castration' (hurts to think about it, huh Guys? but better than dying).
Surgical removal of the prostate is also a treatment as is freezing of the prostate to kill the cancer cells.
Various combinations can also be prescribed.
Hey guys, if you are over 40, get a PSA test series started. The life you save can be your wife's mate.
No, I don't lawdude. Just picking up information. Yours us appreciated. I tend not to jump to conclusions. You add quite a bit to a topic about which I know nothing...well, I know more know.
A good example of what I mean.
Lack of ability to understand what is totally unknown is very common.
As well, 200 miles in the US is practically around the corner considering the size of the entire country.
You will appreciate this tale of numbers: In the 1960s I lived on Guam, about the same size as Tutuila, and drove a 4 year old Toyota that had 84,000 miles on it when I bought it. The previous owner must have driven around the whole island every day!
LOL
The Sinewy Searchlight Grifter and The Red Marxist Queen of The Universe ......
(My, my doesn't Hillary have the look of one of those Nazi functionaries directing the victims onto the train cars to go to the death camps.)
That is the face of death.
Oh, it's going to get ugly ugly ugly and the first warning shot was fired by the heinous one.
paraphasing the commentary from her staffer.
It will be ugly.
My only hope would be and is that more American (voters) could ascertain from where most of the ugliness is emanating.
The klinton slime machine is working overtime and the election isn't for two more years.
.............. shades of Hart/Bimini and Monkey Business.
Glad he's gone but notice that he's now out of the news completely. They have to have room for foley foley foley foley
Thanks for your weekly round-up in post #19. I will be sure to check in this thread again next week as I work most Sundays. I hope Rush has people reading all this for his show prep as well.
bummer

#366. Joe Negron is getting to as many campaign appearances as possible,and his website joenegron.com is up and running and anyone can donate if they wish. He is having to have volunteers call Registered Pubbies and tell them that a vote for Foley is a vote for him and the 8 County Supervisors of elections in the 16 CD have voted to allow Signs to be posted at the Precincts indicating the same thing. He is getting a lot of support because he is a pragmatic environmentalist like most of the voters in the 16CD,and is more Conservative than Foley. It is an uphill battle to try to get People to vote for someone that is no longer running in order to get the good guy in there. We have a Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser coming up this Thursday October 19 at the Shrine Club North of Sebring which Joe and a lot of Surprise Candidates will attend. Everyone is working hard even though in my county in particular we have the oldest per capita population in the State,and those old bones don't move as well as they used to years ago. The elderly have a huge advantage here, they have done it all before and are seasoned in GOTV,and they will donate big bucks to pay for any last minute GOTV strategies. We are still pumped and he(Joe) is a great Candidate,especially when you look at that UGLY thang that is running against him. Send Money

#247 Kerry is insane. I spewed coffee when he said the Bush admin was "living in a dream world".He's out of his F-ing mind. Worse, he's a F-ing liar. Baghdad Bob could take lessons from him

#376 And yet, if the story is true, FNC refused an ad blaming Clinton for not taking action on serveral fronts. Their excuse for refusing the ad.....the premise in the ad can't be replied to..............Does that make ANY sense at all? I am beyond understanding FNC other than to believe they took terrible heat from above following the slick willie melt down with chris WallaSS.

#525 I'll tell y'all something about the way the rest of the world thinks about the United States: Many of them hate us because of our success and our good-natured attitude and friendliness. I served overseas in the early '80s, under Reagan, and again in the '90s under Bush the Elder and Clinton. The overseas Leftists really hated Reagan, but their venom was muted to a degree due to the Cold War. The Soviets, still being dictatorial bastards, gave peace-loving people plenty of ammunition to use against them. Even still, the huge marches against Reagan in Europe, especially over the deployment of Pershing II IRBM, in response to the Soviets FIRST deploying SS-20s at all their capitals and peoples, were some of the biggest gatherings of anti-Americans ever assembled. The DBM ignores this or is too stupid or too stuck on their times only to even acknowldege it. During the 1990s, the protesters were once again out in force over Desert Shield. I was at the Pentagon then (soon to go overseas), and had a part time job working for the Veterans Administration next to the White House. Next door, in Lafeyette park, the aging, smelly, greasy-haired hippies had this enormous tom-tom drum, which they beat every five seconds. I could hear it in the VA's computer room, even with the air handlers going full blast and a 6 node VAX cluster running. I have yet to encounter a more disturbing noise since. The Worldwide Left threw similar hissy fits all over, especially in Europe. During the Clinton years, the world began to REALLY, REALLY hate us, and, believe it or not, it wasn't just about Clinton. You see, after the Soviet Union broke up in late 1991, we, meanning the United States of America, was the only super power left standing. Without the various nations taking sides either with us or the Soviets, they could all hate us together. Everyone loves to hate the richest, biggest, strongest person--it's simple human nature. The USA is simply a national personification of this. Our culture is world wide. I have seen Japanese kids, German kids, Italian Kids, Greek kids, wearing their pants halfway off their butts and various NBA and Raiders jackets, half-cocked ball caps, etc, all over the world. Rap music in Berlin at 2:00 AM on a Tuesday. McDonalds in Paris, serving Le Royale (Big Mac)... Chrysler minvans on the Autobahn to Basel, Switzerland. I have been stared at in disgust by older Germans just for being "too friendly". These people won't even talk to each other, so it annoyed them when a strange American treated them nicely. I just laughed at them, knowing how we kicked their asses! Der Fuerer's tot, dumkopf! Under Clinton, the USA was percieved as a joke politically. It was like Peyton Place moves to the White House. So many European people told me what a bumpkin they thought he was. Now Bush is a MAN, and an American man at that. Nice guy! Friendly. But means what he says and says what he means. No nuance in him. They hate that! Since then we have been using just SOME of our power and might to take out Islamic fascists. The already-hating-us world Left is still, well, hating us. Nothing is new. The self loathers we have in this country (Kerry, et al), simply are jointed at the cerebellum with the world Leftists.

#346 on the topic of racism.... on the Control Congress blog- John Konop posted a story about voter ID laws. this leftist- calls himself "LeftHook" posted this- Is any conservative willing to confess that the “real” reason you strongly support a voter ID law isn’t racism or fear of voter fraud—-it’s because you believe that anybody who can’t get it together enough to get an ID doesn’t deserve to be participating in national decision making? And will you also confess that if the tables were turned and the voter ID law would erode the Republican voter base that you wouldn’t be pushing so strongly for it? so I responded with this- LeftHook better question. If the Dems could actually win an election on the issues, would they bother stuffing ballot boxes with Disney Characters, dead people, and illegal invader votes? Oh- and would they bother driving state to state to vote? And would they be so desperate as to start looking in prisons for a new voter base? Hysterical that you would find fair election with integrity some kind of threat, and even funnier that wanting integrity in the elections is called racist. Sounds like the Libs are the ones who are racist and elitists here. You're saying that your voter base is too stupid or too weak to get an ID….and you are claiming they are all poor and minorities…now- who is racist here? Amazing how racist the Libs are and yet the minorities are just absolutely BLIND to it! I just DON'T GET IT! http://controlcongress.com/uncategorized/no-voter-id-a-right#comments

#25. Morning AB, everyone, looks like another great thread in the making. Poor rat panel on Chrissy's pathetic show, they still think McCain has a chance. One of the topics covered this week at Red state was just that, who the blogosphere thinks will be our next potus. McCain was on the list but wait until you see where. It's at Red State here" http://www.redstate.com/ Along with lots of other great topics like exposing an AP writer for doing an editorial and trying to pass it off as straight news--Tom Raum, and then there is the Claire McCaskill fiasco. Seems McCaskill has a few problems at home with her not so nice hubby who gets a little violent with his women--rat family values here. Talent should have no problem knocking her off. There is also a gripping photo of Petty Officer 2nd Class Michael Monsoor only two days before he died, must see photo it will tear your heart out. We definitely have the absolute best fighting force ever assembled and anyone who advocates they surrender,cut and run or anything other than win should definitely just shut up. Red State also has a good piece on the demise of Air Amerika and why rat radio just won't work in a free market where advertisers actually expect something from what they purchaseand still another look at Rick Santorum and how good he really is.Check it out.

#61 Great points, I agree. Democrats will overplay their hand. The fact is Democrats and media have been hammering President Bush for six years, nonstop. At some point it has to take a toll, although we have proved the left wrong for six years now. The unknown and critical component in our success is the independent, non aligned voter. These people for the most part realize the left is overplaying the Bush Lied scenario because what they see on TV shows a calm, deliberate mature president. Voters like that confidence and if Bush & Co were to come out swinging it might turn them off. It’s hard to argue with success, and so far the results have been good. The question is whether or not this will work one more time? In the mean time, people like Kerry and Hillary are playing to their base in being more and more outrageous in their accusations against President Bush. The far-left supporters such as Daily Kos, MoveOn and Democrat Underground have made it pretty clear they will withdraw support unless these people get more radical in attacking President Bush and the Republicans. Just watch Condi and Kerry today. Condi will be calm and deliberate while Kerry will be outrageous and confrontational. (He may also try to pull a Clinton if he thinks he can get away with it.)
