Even when we don't agree, we're not nasty to each other.

Thank you, but this is not STRICTLY the truth, at absolutely every occasion, as you may remember, LOL!. It seems to me that this particular discussion is between those living in their own world, and those living in the world that exists externally. The former is more fun, the second is more useful.

Ya, that about sums it up. Folks make their choice for president who are swing voters on criteria that have almost no traction at FR among the dissatisfied.

See, what you're saying is that if Bubba had vetoed a law prohibiting partial birth abortion because he thought it was unconstitutional, you would say the bill was constitutional and therefore he should have signed it.

Yes because right to life is the premises or foundation of our nation

And by not signing it, would not he be keeping all of us from finding out for a fact whether or not the law was constitutional?

DUH the USSC is rather lacking in virtue on that matter is it not? How sad a day in the United States of America when the preservation of innocent life is just another piece of Leglislation to be debated. There should be no question it's common sense and Biblical principle on which both were part of this nations founding documents.

And by not signing it because he thought it was unconstitutional, would he not be taking upon himself the authority that only the judicial branch has?

Again nothing in the Constitution sanctions the taking of innocent life and our laws are established to actually preserve such.

And by not signing it because he thought it was unconstitutional, would he not be thwarting the will of the people, expressed by their legislators, insofar as he denied them their day in court to argue that the law was constitutional?

Let's see a few gents in the late 1700's thwarted the will of the majority to seek a better future for themselves and us to follow. Actually most Leglislators are very far removed these days from the will of the people and the Constitution they swore to protect and defend. That's why we're in the mess we're in now. They count on several things. Loyal party line voters who will support them no matter how big a tyrannt they really are, short memories of the Sheeple, and apathy of voters to their wrongs to remain in office.

I can name 100 people right off that will vote for Bush next time who voted for Gore last time.

Well I can match your 100 people and raise you another 100 people ...

There is a reason for the 80% approval

Yes, I am very good at multitasking.......this very moment I'm trying to find a guy to come get these carpenter bees out of my roof! (Just looking, not calling!) But I see a LOT of people every day. I know you won't believe this, but I talk to total strangers all the time. I'm sure you'd never believe that about me since I'm such a shy poster.

You know what kills me about the 80 percent? The fact that that 20 percent who doesn't approve is nothing but extreme left liberals AND far right conservatives.........what a group, huh? The VRWC are in cohoots with the liberals!

The Bush opus.

"I never voted for Bush and By G_D I won't again". It is posted over and over and over and over. the strategy is not quality but quantity. I actually saw one crow that because there was a 1500 post thread bashing Bush it was proof that FR was now firmly anti-Bush. They failed to mention that the anti-Bush crowd comprised about 75 people yelling at each other claiming "I WILL NOT VOTE FOR BUSH MORE THAN YOU!".

Have you had your TV on? The only people on the face of the earth talking about CFR are the 20 of us on these threads on FR.

The only people talking about it other than us are the talking heads on TV, but the only thing they are saying about it is that Bush snubbed McCain!

Uh-oh. Maybe I read what Torie said wrong. I agreed because I thought he was saying it was the same people bashing Bush all the time, for every reason under the sun.

You ought to make a T-shirt out of this:

You don't bug the crap out of me.
You amuse me.
And you make me sad.
You also make me happy I never had kids.

Don't worry about it; the 100 votes Torie says Bush has lost were votes that weren't for Bush anyway.......if that makes sense!
