Not that Bush was being honest, but I loved her reaction when Bush said his father's two favotite people were Dubya and Bubba.
Dear Mr. Edwards.
The worst president of your lifetime was Jimmy Carter. Hands down. No one comes close.
Poor people in the U.S.? By 1950s standards, how many people in the U.S. are truly poor? Large percentages of todays poor have color TV (with remote control.) Microwaves. Cable. Cars. Air conditioning. Not to mention that a high percentage are obese.
Think back to what it meant to be middle class in the 50s. Most middle class people didn't have color tv. No one had a microwave or cable. Only some had air conditioning. You see no progess here?
The simple fact is that the poor rarely live in grinding poverty anymore, and when they do, it is not because the system turned their backs on them.
So what does it typically mean to be poor these days. Mostly that you have to wait in line, not that you have to do without.
You think that is horrible? Ask your mentor Jimmy Carter to name a better country.
So, Edwards has that "Vision Thing".
This from a jerk who couldn't win a single primary in his own party.
(1) Lease a late-model automobile loaded with options;
(2) Own several pairs of designer sneakers;
(3) Own various pieces of gold jewelry;
(4) Eat out at restaurants several times a week;
(5) Own several televisions including a big screen TV;
(6) Own multiple videogame systems;
(7) Regularly have their hair styled and extended and regularly have their nails groomed by professionals; and
(8) Regularly fly to places like Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Trinidad several times a year.
"For a guy who's been known derisively to the Bush crowd as the Breck girl," observes Shearer, vice presidential candidate John Edwards seems "way too interested in his hair." He tries to straighten it with his fingers. A makeup technician approaches with a comb, but the senator likes it just so and does the combing himself. He signals he's ready for hair spray by closing his eyes expectantly, like a child. Then Edwards and the technician straighten a little more with their fingers. Please don't tell me that thing in his hand is a compact. Oh, dear. It is.

Had Ohio voted differently in 2004,Yeah, and in 2000 it was Florida. And in 2008 it will be whatever state has the closest vote tally, and in 2012...
No, not the state with the closest vote tally - the state with the closest vote tally that the Democrats "coulda woulda shoulda" won.In '04 Ohio wasn't as close as Pennsylvania - but since PA went for Kerry, it didn't matter how close the vote there was.
Haven't we all missed the Silky Pony?
Thank you, Ohio... we owe you one!
(BTW... is the Breck Girl admitting that Ohio voted for Bush, and the election wasn't "stolen" after all?)
He is in that Horse trailer in front of you..on the
road....Besides being an obviouc...ass....he is the
type that loves a guy like Kerry?? nothing else has
to be said....Jake
Not in the least...
Lack of VISION? You can say many things about this President..but a lack of vision is definitely not one of them.
John Edward, who beat out a puppy to be John Kerry's running mate in the2004 presidential race, has absolutely no idea what he is talking about. None.

John Edwards has tough words for Bush: "Your hair isn't as pretty as mine!!"
He had the mole removed from his upper lip. He's running.
LOL! Thnaks for the reminder!
