***I read every bit of your link. It was hard on the eyes***

Why hard on the eyes? Did I go wrong somewhere?

The pages on that web site clarify my book you bought some years back. The book is perhaps bogged down in philology and semantics; I hoped the web pages would simplify and clarify the issues raised in the book [also nice pictures! ;-)]

As I posted earlier on this thread, the clues that seemed so obscure and unlikely when I wrote the book now seem to be ripening into fruition. While Hal Lindsey waits for the Pope of Rome to sprout horns and manifest as the antichrist, perhaps the beast is consolidating right before his eyes. SHALOM

Bat Boy is finally retiring?

At least we don’t have to spend money on party favors.... All he has to do is sneeze, and his nose hair does the rest.

“I do not have such optimism, short of divine intervention.”

Same here.

There must be another reason why they’re leaving that may have nothing to do with defeat at the polls. (With more than fourty per-cent support and lots of trunks filled with forgotten ballots, there’s no reason to think they’ll be voted out.)

The game is afoot Watson.

IMHO

Being to the right of Waxman isn’t very difficult, so it’s not saying much.

“The average IQ of democratic house members will go up several points.”


Actually, no. Waxman actually is one of the “smarter” Democrats there.

Jim Moran’s retirement, on the other hand ....
