Bush believes he can displace conservatives with Mexican illegals. Conxervatives are no longer a concern.
Nearly $1 Billion Needed for Family Planning Supplies and Condoms in Countries such as Indonesia
Singing hymns won't solve the problem. Speaking in tongues won't solve the problem. Merely preaching Jesus won't solve the problem. Voting for the candidate who says the nicest things about Christianity has made the problem worse. Bush won the election and refuses to confront the liberal-socialist axis. He refuses to confront and repudiate Arafat. And so on.
Until the Evangelical Church realizes that freedom is the product of dreary, tedious, difficult, exacting, demanding, dispassionate, human thought, and not giddy, adolescent, religious enthusiasm, until the Evangelicals start reading stuff deeper and more substantive than Hal Lindsey and Pat Robertson, until they start thinking clearly, analyzing coldly, and realize that grinning, affable, bland idiocy is not the way to turn the country around, they will continue, through their intellectual sloth, to enable the Clintons and Sharptons and the rest of them to turn this country into a third world police state outhouse.
Maybe it's just me, but when a person uses the word "have" in the sense above, it denotes a NECESSITY. So I repeat, you don't HAVE to be black to be African, just like you don't HAVE to be white to be Western. If words mean anything, you clearly said that in the same way that there is a necessity requiring one to be black to be African, "the same reason" obtains requiring one to be white to be Western. Those are your words.
I didn't post this comment. You must be responding to someone else.
No hard feelings? Shut the whole government down!!
I occasionally post the following due to the adulation Bush receives around here:
The following are excerpts from a March 23, 2002 Washington Times piece by Bill Sammon.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"MONTERREY, Mexico: ----- ------- yesterday said Americans are duty-bound to 'share our wealth' with poor nations and promised a 50 percent increase in foreign aid, but 'We should give more of our aid in the form of grants, rather than loans that can never be repaid,' he said. 'We should invest in better health and build on our efforts to fight AIDS, which threatens to undermine whole societies.'
"In addition to the moral, economic and strategic imperatives of increasing foreign aid, ----- ------- said, it could also help in the war against terrorism.
"'We will challenge the poverty and hopelessness and lack of education and failed governments that too often allow conditions that terrorists can seize and try to turn to their advantage.'"
Here's a small political quiz. Who is quoted above?

c) Al Gore
d) Al Sharpton

Hint: He's very popular here at Free Republic.

And then, of course, there's Senator Edward Kennedy. And the folks at the Crawford Coffee Shop would be somewhat shocked when I told them I actually like the fellow. He is a fabulous United States senator."
Ted Kennedy: Now in charge of health care
NOTE: Ted Kennedy: Hillary, You're the expert, You want this health care stuff?
Clinton's Takeover of Education
"Not long after this letter was written, Hillary, Marc Tucker, Ira Magaziner, Vera Katz, Mario Cuomo and the other board members of the National Center On Education and the Economy met to compile there ideas into one report. The agenda laid out was titled, "A Human Resources Development Plan For The United States". Their plan and agenda is discussed in great detail in my 300 page book "Reclaiming A Nation At Risk" To order your own copy you may call 1800-954-1122 Ext 500. It is sad but true, Hillary and her friends have accomplished most of their initial objectives as laid out in their "humans resources development plan".

You're not going to screw with
that deal letting me off the hook
Robert Ray promised me, right?
No, we'll move on. Heck, thanks.
What about Hillary? We'll help when we can.
Thanks. She'd make a good president George.
Laura likes her.
The other day I was bitten by a loose pit bull. I thought he was just sniffing my leg, and he was indeed, but then gave me a distinct nibble, bruising and breaking the skin, drawing a little blood. Nothing serious, no more painful or harmful than being pinched hard with a pair of pliers, and evidence that this is not a vicious dog. He could have taken a large piece of my leg home as a chew toy.
An animal control officer luckily came by looking for the same animal, and I flagged him down and reported the incident. At the same time the owner came by looking for his dog, and was informed by the dog catcher that it would have to be quarantined. At this the owner burst into a torrent of indignation and foul language, complaining of expense. Mind you, he said nothing to me in apology or even in concern, not the bare minimum of civility. He stormed off in high dudgeon, effing and blinding about expense, inferring that the city and I were persecuting him.
He reminded me instantly of the Clintons and their supporters: "I have caused harm to someone and am so the victim. Stop persecuting me or else."
No discussion or reasoning or negotiation is possible with such people. Any attempt to reach any agreement with them bestows credibility upon them. Since they do not respond to any sense of personal responsibility, since they essentially have no conscience, they can only be coerced into behaving as decent human beings. This is why I am mightily PO'ed about Bush and his dealings with the Clintons and others. By giving them the time of day, he is giving them respectability. Arafat and Clinton are the best examples of this. Bush has made them respectable again, at the very time they should be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail.
By the way, the owner of the dog was tracked down, and the dog was caught and is now in quarantine. I don't have to get rabies shots. Hooray.
POOR BILL

"Trying to get a tast of the Clinton scandals is like trying to drink water from a wide-open fire hydrant"

"I think you're wrong because after about two years of working on this, you know, on and off, I think the President, that the teenage culture caused the President's behavior, in the way he behaved, in, with the oral sex."

Note: Bill Clinton - Victim of Women!
"He was so young, barely four, when he was scarred by abuse, There was terrible conflict between his mother and grandmother. A psychologist once told me that for a boy, being in the middle of a conflict between two women is the worst possible situation. There is always a desire to please each one."

Bush Won't Dwell On Clinton Affair, "We're Moving Forward"
"B/S, Mr Bush. Clinton is a criminal and a traitor. We demand a thorough investigation and prosecution. Our Republic is dead and our liberty is at stake if the next administration does not clean up this mess for now and forever more. Corrupt politicians must pay the price for subverting our Constitution and using their offices for personal gain."
