Plus you rated hi enough to get the "We all know it" comment! Woohoo! Kudos! LOL!!

[terilyn]

Fred's toning it down a bit tonight. After that post #666 he's a little nervous and doesn't want to press his luck.

He'll do better tomorrow.

[Fred Mertz]

Why do you continue to make a fool of yourself? Serious question.

[TLBSHOW]

smoke and mirrors smoke and mirrors

Ann Coulter thinks what? Bush is a rat....lol I doubt it!

In fact she tells us what to watch for when people start to call Bush neither compassionate nor conservative....

,,,,,

In May 2001, former Clinton strategists James Carville and Paul Begala released a “Battle Plan for the Democrats” on the op-ed page of the New York Times. Their central piece of advice was for Democrats to start calling President George Bush names. “First,” they said, liberals must “call a radical a radical.”

Other proposals included calling Bush dangerous and uncompassionate: “Mr. Bush’s agenda is neither compassionate nor conservative; it’s radical and it’s dangerous and the Democrats should say so.”

I am beyond tears. My self-esteem has been permantly damaged and my inner-child destroyed. It will take years of crystal gazing and chanting to regain the inner-peace so cruelly ripped from my psyche

I'm sure you have never done anything as bad as what I did by posting that off color remark.

You know what, KFP.........I've done plenty wrong in my life and I will continue to err daily, as we all do. I can tell you truthfully though, that I have never found the kind of thing you said funny and have never said those kinds of things. It's just not me. As I said.....I have many, many faults but vulgarity isn't one of them.

But that isn't the issue and you know it (or at least you should).

You and all of your cronies have spent countless hours telling others that they aren't conservative enough, not pro-life enough, not Constitution loving enough, etc., etc.

If you can't see that as your identifying yourselves as morally superior, your ability to reason is non-existent.

Thus, seeing you perfectly comfortable splashing some nasty talk around for your "cause", reveals a hypocrisy that all the excuse making and "oops" in the world can't change.

.......and you and your buddies want to point fingers at others. Don't make me laugh!!!!!

This is standard stuff for any research proposal. The funny thing is that it even mentions under what circumstances the Sect of HHS can deny such funding. There is a large laxity on personal judgements, like in sub-section 2. Moreover, section 498 of the Public Health Service Act is so broad, that any person can cite what is ethically wrong under that section. The truth is Bush does not understand the philosophical issue, and hence he makes moronic judgements that makes him look pro-choice.

I know how you feel. Last night I had to light an aromatic candle and turn out the light and take deep breaths.

The experiences here can be so shattering.

What did you think about the Live birth bill he signed this morning?

[Cato]

On a scale of 1 to 10 I give Bush a 2.

The first thing on his agenda was meeeting with Gay leaders , therefore giving what NO President had given before, Presidential recognition of the Gay lifestyle as just another Lifestyle Choice. BS on that. It isn't true and no President should have ever done it.

NIH is not an independent agency. It is an agency under HHS. The only independent agencies under the federal govt are the CIA and the US Postal Service.

[terilyn]

Are you sure about that?

[Satadru]

I don't have to apologize for anything. Read my post #707. Bush could have stopped funding fetal stem-cell research from aborted fetuses in a heartbeat given the laxity in this law and under Public Health Service Act. Bush chose not to fight because he does not understand the philosophy behind the pro-life cause. He is pro-life for political purposes as he, and his family, has shown repeatedly.

[Satadru]

No shortage of total morons either.

After reading some of the posts by sleeveless on a forum swwearch........I think he could help you out with some cristals and stuff.

Well this guy wanted to be President and he is a Hero to libertarians and the Cato institute

Ban on Gays is Senseless Attempt to Stall the Inevitable

By Barry M. Goldwater

The following is a transcript of Barry Goldwater's commentary on the military gay ban that appeared this week in the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times.

After more than 50 years in the military and politics, I am still amazed to see how upset people can get over nothing. Lifting the ban on gays in the military isn't exactly nothing, but it's pretty damned close

Everyone knows that gays have served honorably in the military since at least the time of Julius Caesar. They'll still be serving long after we're all dead and buried. That should not surprise anyone.

But most Americans should be shocked to know that while the country's economy is going down the tubes, the military has wasted half a billion dollars over the past decade chasing down gays and running them out of the armed services. Here

Right on, man! Too many people are graduating from kindergarten, and computers are way too cheap. Maybe Bush's socialist rule will make computers much more expensive in the future so not everyone with a kindergarten background can afford it.

[terilyn]

Well, you're half right. NIH is under HHS. On the other hand, as far as the CIA & USPS being the only independent agencies under the federal government...
