Larry tends to be more right than wrong about these things anyway.

[Howlin]

Klayman said Cheney was the defacto president, meaning Bush is NOT the president.

Now, do you or do you not agree with him?

[Poohbah]

I'd never heard it before I managed to combine "administration" and "trivia" while talking to my boss.

He loved it, and complimented me on my ability to make the perfect word for what we were dealing with...so he'd never heard it, either.

But in a nation of 280 million folks, 140 million of whom have above-average verbal facility...others probably came up with it independently of moi.

[Iwo Jima]

Howlin's got you dead to rughts on this one. You are showing yourself to be totally without integrity.

[Howlin]

KLAYMAN: Well, and if you believe that, we're in deep trouble in the war against terrorism. This is a hands-on vice president. He is the de facto president. And he runs this country, in effect. He's a very sharp guy. He's known for his hands-on management style, particularly when he was secretary of defense during the Persian Gulf War.

[FreedominJesusChrist]

I believe that Cheney has great power over what Bush says and does, but complete power? No.

When it comes to integrity, I will let my friends and family decide that, not just someone on the internet.

[Mo1]

In it, he discusses Halliburton and Cheney (the subject of this thread) and then goes on to make his comment about Cheney being a de-facto President, indicating that is one of the reasons why this lawsuit is so darned important and why we must have it right now.

Klayman said that???

Gee .. I'd like to know who is funding Klayman these days because that sounds like a Rat response

Is there anyway to find a list of donors??

[Miss Marple]

Actually, I would require documentation that Larry tends to be more right than wrong about "these things."

Here, let me put the exact quote up for you:

"Well, and if you believe that, we're in deep trouble in the war against terrorism. This is a hands-on vice president. He is the de facto president. And he runs this country, in effect. He's a very sharp guy. He's known for his hands-on management style, particularly when he was secretary of defense during the Persian Gulf War."

Larry said that Cheney is the "de facto president." (See definition by Howlin provided above.) He also said Cheney "runs this country, in effect."

Are you defending this statement? Do you agree with it? Is it an appropriate comment to make during a war?

[Howlin]

Do you or do you not agree with Klayman's statement above?

[FreedominJesusChrist]

See post #487.

[Howlin]

Actually, I would require documentation that Larry tends to be more right than wrong about "these things."

Wouldn't we all.

[deport]

Whoooo boy....... Two "Drop its today.....

The girl can't help it..... but her buds at the watch may could

[Mo1]

I believe that Cheney has great power over what Bush says and does, but complete power? No.

Great power???

[FreedominJesusChrist]

To a certain degree, yes.

[Miss Marple]

So, you don't agree with Larry? You do NOT think that Cheney is the "de facto president?"

[FreedominJesusChrist]

You make no sense in that statement above, please re-phrase.

[Howlin]

487 is not an answer to the outright question.

Do you agree or disagree with Larry Klayman that Dick Cheney is the defacto president of the United States and he runs the country.

It's quite simple: YES OR NO?

[Neets]

Right here in black and white....it'd bite yer booty if it were a snake.

KLAYMAN: Well, and if you believe that, we're in deep trouble in the war against terrorism. This is a hands-on vice president. He is the de facto president. And he runs this country, in effect. He's a very sharp guy. He's known for his hands-on management style, particularly when he was secretary of defense during the Persian Gulf War.

I admire your ability to parse.It's quite well developed for one so young.
