As long as Liberals are in the minority party or the make-beleive world (media, academia, Hollywood, State Department or Wal-Mart greeters), they can huff and puff and charm to their heart's content. Just don't let them anywhere near the levers of power.
I had dinner with George McGovern once. He was a very charming guy. He has this strange way of talking while hardly moving his lips, which is kind of distracting.
1. LOL
2. I get it
3. ...but I needed the hint!
dan
McGovern has seen about 75% of his campaign platform implemented - higher taxes, eco-fascism, out of Vietnam. The only big one missing is government health care, but the republicans are working on that.
I guess that means when we are attacked on American soil......oh, - never mind. Reagan got it right when he said:
"It is not a matter of Peace or War, only of Fight or Surrender."
So, what about it, George???
George McGovern destroyed the Democratic Party of JFK and Harry Truman.
Listen, you. I was getting my a$$ shot at as a helicopter pilot in Vietnam in Spring 1972 while this worthless a$$hole was announcing how he'd `go on my knees to Hanoi' to beg the release of the POWs suffering hideously at the hands of those North Vietnamese ANIMALS!
The hellish Nixon bombed the living $hit out of North Vietnam and actually secured the POWs release in 1973.
McGOO has been badmouthing the American people ever since for failing to elect him President-for-life.
McGovern is a worthless, arrogant snot. In 1984 he praised former KGB chief Yuri Andropov in the same sentence in which he denounced Ronald Reagan.
A small, mean, vicious man.
Call him Mr. Nice Guy all you want!
You''re right, much of it by R's
I do think that McGovern would be a good Dem nominee for President in 2008.
I was referring to his WWII service. He was wrong in 72, but raising the issues is legitimate. And he'd paid the price, unlike most of todays dems. In general though, you're right, perhaps I credit that too much.
I think the have their Mc's mixed up. They are probably referring to McCain.
If you turn one of those wheels you break the others, right?
You haven't a clue.
Probably not.
Compared to what the Democrats have on tap today, McGovern would be a sharp turn to the right.
The gear chain is locked. It can't possibly turn.
And if, in the entire brain trust of the Democratic Party, they don't have one person with the common sense of any ordinary bicycle repairman, then what hope do they have of solving the really complex problems?
Yeah that's what I thought, turning one of the gears would break the legs off at least one of the others (if forced). It is a stunningly accurate emblem of the Democrat party during my lifetime.
Sadly..that is what gave so many GOPers such heart ache..why did they have to do what they did..Nixon was a shoo-in against such a loser like mcloser..I know Nixon didn't orchestrate the break-in..but it was the cover-up that killed this wonderful man..(kicking in disgust)..
