Ah, 'Harrison'. The fact remains that kicking the President in the groin at every opportunity while proclaiming to be engaged in nothing but defense of principal and righteous truth-telling is always characterized as 'telling it like it is' but yet, surprise! Any real defense of the man is ridiculed as knee-jerk Republicanism. Double standard personified here.

Harrison, I don't have time to chew this one over a dozen times so I'll make it easy and leave you the last word, a la O'Reilly. That knee jerks two ways. Some folks will bash Bush for anything he does that doesn't fit some ultra-rightist profile. Typical example: Bush appointed a gay man to some AIDS office. Pure PR but no, some Bush-bashers were proclaiming that Bush was 'in bed with the homos' and was promoting homosexuality. Please. This kind of hyperbole discredits many of these very threrads.

A hint: Because it doesn't appear on this thread doesn't mean a statement was not made. 'Worse than Clinton' is one of those.

Have fun.

In your own words:

"...kicking the President in the groin..."

"...bash Bush..."

"This kind of hyperbole discredits many of these very threrads."

Three words: Pot, kettle, black.
