Breaking on CNN charged with fraud,trying to obtain a controled substance....nothing follows..........
Thanks, AmishDude, but I insist that my good character on this board not be besmirched by the ignorant or the overzealous.
I have a right to call GW the "Shrub". I've earned that right. I voted for the guy and worked for him. I had to go through Recount Hell like everyone else. I have posted in this thread the certainty that the media will play this story for all it's worth, simply because they are the paid bitch of the DNC.
When you've come to realize that the press is nothing but a Rat propaganda outfit, their tricks get real old, real quick.
Nevertheless, I won't tolerate being labeled as a DU disruptor or a Democrat. Not by anyone.
The drinking situation was outrageous I agree. It was clearly politically motivated. But the greater point, IMHO, is the hypocrisy of our hysterical drug laws.
I don't know why people keep obsessing about Chelsea Clinton around here, just like they do her daddy ... both of them are quite irrelevant now ... but could the story be here that Billy and Hilly did a better job of getting the realities of life over to Chelsea than the Bushes have done? I have no doubt, no doubt whatsoever, that Chelsea Clinton did and probably is still doing as much wild stuff as anyone of her age. But could the difference be that she realizes at what point to stop, and to make sure no cameras are around?
That's the point I'm trying to make ... because of the realities of the media spotlight, someone in the position of the Bush twins or Jeb's daughter can't just let go and "do" like the average person. They always have to be thinking, in the back of their minds, that someone is watching. And again, if they think that's unfair, they need to take it up with Daddy.
Many in politics are using highly destructive techniques to pave the way for the next election. If destroying companies, individuals and even the economy is the way to get or STAY in power, then it will be done. Many dollars are at stake. Companies are being destroyed one by one as they hack their way through the complexities of managing Government and the legal system trainwrecks.
Pray for initiatives on capital gains tax cuts and tort reform tonight.
Yepper. According to the Dems, Monica in her early twenties was capable of "adult" decisions -- as if diddling Clinton in the Oval Office while he discussed issues of national importance was a decision any sane adult would make (including Clinton).
But, when it comes to anyone connected to the GOP, it *must* be the parents' fault. Otherwise, the story would have never been printed, least of all picked up by national news outlets.
Then there's Chelsea who can do no harm and only gets positive press. The ol' double-standard rises again. Yep, that press is sure fair and unbiased.
Really? Doctors sometimes prescribe it short-term (even in very low doses) to help people sleep.
The only difference between licit and illicit psychotropic drugs is the route the money takes to get to the top.
Ridalin? Cocaine?
Oxycontin? Heroin?
Don't have any. My spouces boss asked how much our family spends on drugs each year when trying to get the company a blanket drug insurance policy. The answer was " none. "
We're healthy, and don't need them. Not even antibiotics. Ever.
I never took drugs and I am not a boozie (thank God for my right wing father!). I would repeal all drug laws and sign EXECUTIVE order and release all the druggies and boozies who commited no crime and let churches clean them up.
First, you have an innapropriate ID. Simply making up an ID of "centrist" doesn't make you one. From this it is obvious that you are an extremist liberal.
And second, the people who are misfits are the ones who NEVER have any problems in their lives. I can certainly say that I had my share of beer/alcohol during my extented period of college life. Therefore, by your definition I too am a misfit.
And finally, is a rapist and a rulaed against in a court of law liar (Bill Clinton), the society norm, not a misfit?
Good try at being centrist but you went way, WAY, extreme, left on this one...
Oh, that little thing? Hardly worth mentioning... so long ago... and Kennedy got out of the car okay, didn't he? /sarcasm
Hear, hear!!!
She is NOT the 'son or daughter' of a PRESIDENT. She is the NIECE of a president. I trust you get the difference.
