He must have heard from more than a few of his constituents recently.
I wasn't...and won't... discuss Gore's attempt to steal an election.
My original comments were about incumbents....and Bush, not Clinton, won a majority.
I didn't miss it. I hope I contributed something to GWB's victory. I gave a significant amount of money to the GOP and the SBVFT; I wrote letters and emails of support to newspapers, talk show hosts, and Congress; and I was a GOP poll watcher for 12 hours on election day.
Speaking of History. I am not one of those who gloats about what a great victory it was. I was surprised and disappointed how close the election really was. We had an incumbent wartime President going against the most liberal Senator from the most liberal state in the country. Kerry was uncharismatic with an undistinguished legislative record; had the baggage of belonging to a radical antiwar group, which talked about assassinating US officials; testified before Congress that Vietnam veterans (like myself) were war criminals and drug addicts; had a phony war record and bugged out after four months in country using unearned PHs, which were self-inflicted; and a rich, kooky wife who would have made a terrible first lady. Despite all of this Kerry received 251 electoral votes and garnered 8 million more votes than Gore and the second most in history.
Bush's increased his vote total by 12 million from 2000. I suspect that his record will be broken in the not too distant future simply as a matter of demographics. Presuming Hillary runs in 2008, there will be a huge turnout on both sides. Reagan's 54 million in 1984 was far more impressive than Bush's 62 million.
Remember that 2004 was the most important election in generations and we won. The left used all the power they have obtained for the last one hundred year to defeat President Bush, but at the end they were utterly defeated.
Sorry, but the Left is alive and well. We will have our work cut out for us in 2008 to hold on to the WH. I think that 2008 will be the current Dem Party's last stand. If they lose this one, the party must change its basic tenets and strategy.
PS: Eventually you will be found as a troll and you will be be banned
LOL. I guess if you disagree with jveritas, you get banned. I don't have to prove my bona fides to you. Facts are stubborn things.
Anothere episode of PETER PAUL AND HILLARY will be up in a few days. We are busily working on the documentary film. Hillary still faces Peter in the civil trial where she will be under oath. That should prove interesting.
Rush is on delay on WBAP - doesn't start til 1:00. Mark is currently on 9-12, I think. I have rarely listened, because I have to be in my car, and closer to Dallas.
Fox News was just talking about it, but I don't recall any mention on FNS.
Dred Scott.
You are declaring Frist to be a man? History does not support your claim. Frist is Trent Lott with a stethoscope.
To the best of my recollection, Susanne M. has been on cnn for at least a couple of years as a reporterette, but she must be moving up since she filled in for Wolfie today (either that or everyone else took the day off and she was all that was left).
Yeap Joe Biden has now declared that the SC can make law.
The responsibilty for reporting Peter's $1.9 in-kind contribution belongs to the treasurer of the campaign. That would be Andrew Grossman. The candidate does not have a problem unless the candidate had knowledge of what was going on. There is plenty of evidence that Hillary knew all about what was going on.
Congrats Doug. Great job.
I'm sure you will keep everyone here apprised of what is coming up and when. I know it's a lot of hard laborious work you are doing, best of luck.
I hope Tony is right. He said on Friday that W would not appoint him.
Hatch did not recommend any of the three...he just let Clinton know which would be smooth and which wouldn't.
Asked if he was suggesting the people in his state approved of cutting and running.
Told his office I considered his comments a slander on the state.
That we didn't approve of cutting and running in Somalia and don't want that for Iraq.
