There are a whole lot of very reasonable people who have gotten the same impression that there's something strange about her claims.....Excuse me lady, I have not seen you be reasonable on this thread.
Howsomeever, I have been called strange before. :)

He didn't come on this thread to "put his nose in Am politics. He came here to defend carenot as I did. He(notforprophet) lives here in the US OK you all are going schizo now. I thought NFP was a proud Canadian as stated in NFP's reply #253.
Sheesh you all could make the Clintons blush with your try at spin, IMO.

Jmc, - just some friendly advice.
Your claim that Dane is "winning this argument" makes you look like an ass.

Don't worry about it, farmfriend. Dane doesn't realize there are people living in this country who aren't American citizens.

Back up your claim! JMO, but you have backed my claim by your replies on this thread.
It is there for everybody who has read this thread to see.
Anyway it's been fun, gotta go, dinner is ready, and FF don't let your malcontentism consume you, you will only give happiness to Hillary.

Why are you picking on the Canadian living in America? He's here for a reason, and it's the pursuits of what MOST Americans and LEGAL immigrants treasure.

Huh I guess bringing up the fact of Chretien/Liberal/Socialist Canada is a "loser" somehow. It is a losing argument, as there are many very conservative friends of FR up north. When Klintoon was president, all of us weren't suddenly liberal.
I'm on your side on this particular thread that voting third party at the presidential level is stupid and will hand victories to Dems, but when you bring up pot, which this thread has nothing to do with, you know I'm gonna jump on you for it. I'm a loserdopian and all. ;-)

Dane NEVER 'backs a claim'.
He has been a hopeless malcontent ever since he first registered on FR, and uses the 'malcontent' label on everyone he disagrees with.

Jmc, - just some friendly advice. Your claim that Dane is "winning this argument" makes you look like an ass.He's on my side in the respect that it is best to stick with Republicans at the presidential level at this point. There's plenty of other things that you can find that make me look like an ass. I maintain a FR thread about a reality show for chrissakes.

To: nmh; All
A big THANK YOU to 'nmh' for pointing out what needs to be said, and should stop all this bickering.
FYI I also know retired Vets and they are PISSED as HEll at George for breaking his promises to them.
This is in the same vein as many of the posts.
BUT, his last sentence is one that must be paid attention to.
We really have screwed the Vet.
HOW LONG have these men and women that we are discussing, been VETERANS? Quite a while,huh. HOW LONG HAS GEORGE BUSH been President? Not too long.
Maybe he hasn't been able to get a bill through for them, like he intended yet, but that is not the same as blaming him for what we have/haven't done for the VETS for about 60 years, now is it?
To: Dane; farmfriend
And as much as I agree with you on the election issue, I do believe farmfriend has proven you claim false. Your best bet is to admit it and move on.

Please refer to my previous post. Everyone seems to think WINNING is what FR is about. It's not. Understanding is.
Both sides of this argument are being pulled in by the factions that control the media, the elections. SUCKERS!
The whole point is what 'nmh' said in his post. He named who is to blame.
To: carenot; jwalsh07
I'm curious, what did Bush lie about?
To: jwalsh07
Nothing that I can remember.
That is why I did not vote for him. :)
# 297 by carenot ***************
Bush lied when he said he would not support embryonic research.

Bush who has never vetoed a liberal bill, CFR, the education bill, a billion more to the U.N., jumps up with a snarl and threatens our veterans with his nasty veto pen. We call that double dealing where I come from.True. But he hasn't pushed for the PBA bann. It has been a couple of months since it passed both houses.
