I'm going to vote Republican for the rest of my life, because as soon as I'm dead, I'll always be voting Democrat. Thank you, thank you very much! I'm here all week. Have you tried the veal? It's fantastic!

Yeah, everybody's a comedian. :)

Good thought..the problem is...everyone (voters) are
influenced by their peers primarily, and their voting
is not taken seriously...easily influecned..that is why
the attack ads are what they are...it is assumed that
you and I are negative from the get-go..hence the ads
get the conversateion going....at work, at play, at the
watering hole...so nothing positive makes an in-road..
Reagan and his cheerful atitude confounded the MSP and
no one has been able to emulate his optimism...and
then the cycle started again...we need positive people
and positive programs to recoup...Jake

Not too many calm voices of reason over there.

[rodguy911]

Have not seen it do you have a link?

[DTogo]

Are you actually defending the practice of voting against a party's candidate even when that candidate is a good conservative?

No.

How guilty-by-association are the 25 new Democrat congressmen who are associated with the party of treason?

Probably a lot, but the GOP didn't work the media hard enough to inform the voters. Instead they played catch-up/react or followed W's "new tone in Washington" by not responding. Lame.

I just started on it and will bookmark it to read when I can.

Iraq IS like Vietnam, IF that means a Democrat congress wants to cut and run, again. Otherwise, there is little similarity as far as the war effort is concerned. Nor is Iraq similar to Korea and we have no plans to remain in Iraq for generations without resolution, as we have in South Korea. If anything, the model for Iraq is Granada, but on a larger scale: go in, get it done and come home.

Americans DO want the war over and our troops coming home. But, not until we’ve stabilized Iraq and they can stand on their own two feet in defense of their country.

The Middle-East has been a tinderbox waiting for a spark to set it ablaze for most of my life and today is the first serious effort to stabilize that region. Finally, after all these years America is doing more than giving lip-service to this problem.

The reason this is going to take more time than we’d like is because we want the Iraqis to support themselves, not us dictating to them as an imperialistic, occupying force.

[samantha]

That is true, there will be an even better Military in the future than we have now thanks to Rummy. When I was at the Pentagon, the Secretary Of Defense was a totally incompetent Robert McNamara, and the Fighting men and Women under him did not like or respect him. It is just the opposite with Rummy,he is well respected and liked by the Majority of Military Employees, especially Iraqi Vets that know what is going on. The Liberal/leftist/Communist DBM and their newly appointed followers that have pushed out the Conservative Editors of Small town Newspapers have gone off Editorially on GWB, Cheney, Rusmfeld, Rice, and anyone with Military Authority that did not speak in traitorous words. They do not like the Military and never will, and want to use them for Social Programs, like their own private little paid Socialists, but just like in my Community they know they cannot talk bad about the Soldiers or risk cancellation of half of their Circulation. They are demeaning the Military, but in a way that they may have learned from The Communist Manifesto which is subtle, and is not picked up by the average citizen until it is pointed out. They all have to be made to understand that this is not a Communist Country where only Socialist Democrats have Power. The only language they understand is cancellation of the Subscriptions to their Lousy Newspapers.

[snugs]

Off to eat dinner now (roast chicken, yorkshire, new potatoes and brocolli followed by sweet mincemeat and apple tart with custard).

See you all next week.

[Txsleuth]

I wasn't complaining about NO coverage of those shows..

I was trying (perhaps not successfully), to point out that with those shows having the same people on week after week, there is no reason for any of US to be curious.

BUT, the people that aren't political news junkies like we are...MIGHT assume that those people are on every week because they are the most important, smartest, most relevant, most powerful...etc.

But, we know different....sadly, I think the election showed us that too many Americans beleived them and the MSM that feed them those guests and POV day after day.

[rodguy911]

It's very possible the rats will salivate themselves to a political death the next two years.

[Txsleuth]

There was one guy that I saw in the FLEEper crowd that was talking about all of the troops casualties.

I may be wrong...but I believe that in the last few months...the number of troops KIA would fall below the deaths of young people who have died in car accidents and gang fights here in the USA...but, that guy won't ban cars or tell kids they can't "play" together.

[Txsleuth]

LOL

[Morgan in Denver]

Thanks, I just finished the first 50 posts. One thing that strikes me is some of the Freepers are really not aligned against Bush as much as they are want to get the job done by killing untold thousands of Iraqis to do it. But, I won't start in on that here.

[Txsleuth]

Thank you so much for posting that...

Churchill was a very, very brilliant man.

[rodguy911]

Brilliant expose of what actually goes on in print, t.v as well.

[Txsleuth]

Very good....you are very right!!

I see President Bush as a very optomistic person..and a friendly guy...more in person than in big speeches.

But, as much as I love Pres. Bush...Reagan did have that cheerful sparkle about him.

I just wich the electorate would actually LOOK at the demeanors of Dems though...I never ever see them smile except Pelosi, and her mouth is plastered that way.

here you go!

[Txsleuth]

If you bookmark the thread to read later....you will notice that yesterday I took on some of them...

I did my best....but, in the end, some of them just believe that are WAY too smart for me and President Bush, Rummy, Cheney and Condi.
