When someone, who is still in school, and talks about his " intellectual heft " and his superior knowledge, it is quite germain, to bring up that person's age. They are assumiming, erroniously, that only THEY have an education, and that they know far more ( which could possibly be true, but isn't usually the case ) than the person they are responding to.

Younger FREEPERS usually, though not always, have less valid opinions, than older FREEPERS do, for any number of reasons; not the least of which, is that they know far less and have yet to have enough real life experiences, upon which to base their opinions on.

I haven't stooped to the childish snipings and gutter level invectives, which you and others have gotten into. You are not clever, witty, funny, nor original; only pathetic and juvenile. Your assumptions about me, and everything else, are incorrect. Neither are you capable of doing simple math. Think about that and perchance, you may be able to figure out what I mean by that. LOL

Damn, I keep forgetting he is a RINO.

I'd rather have a "RINO" that tanks Kyoto, the ICC, pushes through a tax cut, signs the most pro-life legislation in 20 years, etc. etc., than a two bit malcontent, who pouts and moans if "his way" isn't followed 100%.

I don't know who's fault it is. Just suggesting a way that you can end it.
Thanks,

Hey, Schundler was running in a liberal state without his party's help. Days before the election, DiFrancesco was criticizing Schundler, and Whitman waited for the longest time to give a somber endorsement. Not to mention that Bush gave more time to Ted Kennedy than Schundler. BTW, if Bush ran for anything in his liberal home state of Maine, he would have finished third in a race with two people.

I corrected the spelling. I guess that you were just so intent on writing such " clever " ( NOT ! ) doggeral, that you missed it. :-)

Hmmmmmmmmm ... " Silent Cal " ? HOOVER ? The President Hoover, whose policies, to get the USA out of the Depression, FDR used and then expanded upon ? That Herbert Hoover ? You'd best go and do some reszearch about both of those dead presidents; you dson't seem to know all that much about them IF you think that both of them were far better Conservatives tha President Bush. :-)

Do you know the meaning of RINO ? I doubt it, from your intermperate and erronious use of the word.

Oh dear, oh me , oh my, you're " keeping a running list " of what I have said to you ? Rather than that, kid, you should keep a list of all of the personal attacks, on others, which YOU have been making. Perhaps I should do just that. Double standards don't work here; especially when you are once again, caught doing exactly what you imply I have done .

What principles did Ron Paul betray? I love it when you end your posts with a put-down worthy of your Masters degree from Po-Dunk Elementary.

Who said I am looking for a pro-life stalwart? I just want people to be honest. Bush said he opposed fetal stem-cell research during the campaign. Instead, if he said that he performs abortion himself and then eats the body parts for dinner, I would have slightly respect for him for being honest. I am not a pro-life ideologue. I support the rights of the unborn, but do not make my candidate choice based on that.

The word is not germain. It is germane. Come on your intellectual heft sounds like a big empty vessel.

By your theory Madam Methuselah, one must have lived through the Coolidge years apparently to have their opinion stamped and validated by the "older and wiser" ' nopardons'. BTW, "younger FReepers" may not necessarily connotate someone in their 20s either, Dearie...

As for your delusionly absurd charge of my having engaged in "childish snipings and gutter level invectives," try looking into a mirror sometime...OR at your previous posts which speak for themselves.

And finally -- do you EVER tire of your boorish, non-stop elitist blather?? We here certainly do, but then, sometimes there is such a thing as "comic relief".

That is all Satradu has. There is no way in changing his world view of Bush, although facts have been presented otherwise, he disregards them with impunity.

The Washington Post Thinks George W. Bush Is A New Democrat
"But symbolic reforms are easy to imitate. George W. Bush's compassionate conservatism is intent on matching Gore gesture for gesture, from drugs to long-term care. The New Democrat response--play push-off politics while adopting the "second generation of New Democrat ideas."

The Bush strategy – which has much in common with a competing plan offered by New Democrat Sens. Evan Bayh and Joe Lieberman

George W. Bush: Fugitive Liberal - May 19, 2000
"So marked was he that even the liberal Washington Post branded Bush "The New Democrat," someone every bit as liberal as an Al Gore or a Bill Clinton."

I thought he raised in TX, but he was born in Maine or Mass or Connecticut.

[Twodees is] a liar. I was so angry that you lied about Howlin getting Registered banned that I completely missed the first lie you told - that Howlin had defended Clinton during impeachment. No one addressed it, probably because it is so stinking absurd on its face - but I'm addressing it now.

I'm not sure which planet Twodees came from, but Registered's profile page shows his account 100% active. How do we know he was ever even suspended, much less BANNED? Maybe he just took a couple weeks off.

For starters, Paul couldn't get elected as a Libertarian, so he masquerades as a Republican. He sometimes votes with the Liberal Dems and against Conservative positions. There's far too long a list and this is a boring / not on topic dodge, so, just go do some real research, on this matter.

There you go again, kid, more smarmy, juvenile insults, which have about as much validity , as your other posts. In other words, none.

I make and miss a lot of typos. At least I'm not some kid, as you are, who has delusions of granduer, and knows very little about what he pretends to be " expert " in. :-)
