THAT URANIUM STORY

[OWK]

I don't live in a "perfect world" as you seem to want to.

Me either.

But you evaded the question.

An honest answer would be nice.

Why do you think the fact that democrats are flawed, makes republican flaws good?

[Dane]

On issues?

It's a straightforward question OWK, who is your perfect Presidential candidate and please stop the Clintonian parsing.

"Then get out there a lobby the American people to accept your idea. But right now, that just won't fly."

Lobby hell.. The Constitution.. you know the same one that each and every Congresscritter holds up an oath to uphold, says no go. It's called breaking the law.. and each time.. anyone from any party says.. well it could be worse if so and so got voted into office, instead of shouting.. "Now, hold on for a min with that crap"... we sell ourself's down the river... I, for one have a problem with that river part.. it seems some here don't... it seems their problem is with those, like myself who stand for something... outside the "party" For I don't give a rat's ass what party one is in.. I want to know just what the Constitution and Bill of Rights means to each and every one running...

[Neets]

And setting up that premise was obvious from the start.

Psst! Don't be late for our super secret banning conference later this afternoon. Your job today to notify the usual attendees!

You are correct... both have responsibility....

But legislation come from Congress.

Bush can veto it and hope it is not over-ridden.

But, we both know that since he campaigned for prescription drugs, the bill was going to pass and he was going to sign it.

Now, this is my opinion on what Bush did... it is not an opinion on whether I think he should have veto'd it or not. I still haven't addressed the subject... so, don't go off, half-cocked, skewing my posts to fit your agenda.

[Howlin]

And why, exactly, are you and your friends on this therad not a PACK? Why is it that only the ones that disagree with YOU are a pack?

What's the difference between the ones defending the president and the ones bashing him? Is it because you're one of the ones bashing him?

[OWK]

For the sake of argument, let's go with Ron Paul.

[Howlin]

And, by the way, what is the difference between me notifying PhiKapMom that there are other Bush-bashing threads to be answered, when you guys all toss praise back and forth to each other?

A very interesting question.

[Dane]

Me either.

But you evaded the question.

An honest answer would be nice.

Why do you think the fact that democrats are flawed, makes republican flaws good?

I haven't evaded anything OWK, the answer is right there in reply #338.

You just didn't like the answer because of it's clarity of someone living in the real world of the modern American political system.

JMO, but I see you doing something like a computer blowup, screaming this "does not compute", when you saw reply #338.

[OWK]

And why, exactly, are you and your friends on this therad not a PACK? Why is it that only the ones that disagree with YOU are a pack?

Who do you think his friends are?

I don't think I know the guy.

And while I certainly know dirtboy, I had no idea I'd run into him in this thread.

I don't think we've communicated by any medium for years.

[Howlin]

Better check with the guild, sweetie.

Perhaps you're the one that needs to check with The Guild; Miss Marple hasn't posted there in years.

[OWK]

Not everyone operates like you.

[Dane]

For the sake of argument, let's go with Ron Paul.

Fine Ron Paul, the person who co-sponsored a bill in the House with demo's basically trying to put a roadblock in the Bush administrations attempt to replace saadam hussein.

[OWK]

I haven't evaded anything OWK, the answer is right there in reply #338.

Checked again.

Nothing resembling an answer there.

[dirtboy]

But, we both know that since he campaigned for prescription drugs, the bill was going to pass and he was going to sign it.

Of course, he also promised reforms and privitization ... and then caved.

Now, this is my opinion on what Bush did... it is not an opinion on whether I think he should have veto'd it or not. I still haven't addressed the subject... so, don't go off, half-cocked, skewing my posts to fit your agenda.

The point is, you say he does not bear any responsibility. And that's bullcrap. But my saying so is somehow putting words in your mouth. Telling.

[OWK]

Fine Ron Paul, the person who co-sponsored a bill in the House with demo's basically trying to put a roadblock in the Bush administrations attempt to replace saadam hussein.

Yup. That's the guy.

[Dane]

Checked again.

Nothing resembling an answer there

Correction, nothing resembling an answer that OWK likes, IMO.

[Howlin]

Is it already posted on the forum?

[Fred Mertz]

Can't find entertainment like that anywhere else.

OneWhoKnows.... Thanks for the laugh. LOL

[Refinersfire]

I want to say I am sorry for blowing steam on my last post.. I mean no insult to any one poster. I just get tried of seeing Party over America in so many posts...
