quade 4 #2 March 10, 2003 [Strong Bad Voice] Hey man, that photo looks pretty fake to me! For instance, where'd he buy that coat of his from? Backwardland? In Strongbadia all our coats button the same as everybody else's. So, tell whoever made this, nice try, but it's crap for crap.

billvon 3,078 #4 March 10, 2003 http://www.snopes.com/photos/daschle.asp I've noticed a pattern lately - just about everything used to diss the left is a lie (or, to be nice about it, an exaggeration.) There's plenty of bad stuff that you can use that's true; why make it so easy to disprove? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,545 #5 March 10, 2003 Quote just about everything used to diss the left is a lie (or, to be nice about it, an exaggeration.) I find it funny that Tom Daschle can even be considered left. Yes, he's left of some, but as Democrats go, he's pretty centrist. You want some serious lefties in Congress, you pretty much gotta go to the House.Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hooknswoop 19 #7 March 10, 2003 Not sure how this got under "General Skydiving Discussions", but even if it wasn't a fake, my first thought was what if his right arm was injured, it would look better using his good arm than doing nothing. Hook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,545 #8 March 10, 2003 No; not at all. The number of allegations that seem to have some basis (e.g. you can't find them in snopes or show they've been photoshopped easily) seems to be larger. There's a lot of distance in there. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.

SkyBaad 0 #9 March 11, 2003 Quote Not sure how this got under "General Skydiving Discussions", A:> UUHhhh Yeaaah, HMmm, my thought exactly! Well, Mr Hooknswoop, I first thought his arm was injured from excessive 'hand-shaking' or something myself, I must say that I'm very relieved that that isn't the case.

It's a part of a vast conspiracy. That's enough for jokes.

Yeah, lies like the US military is planning to deliberately target Iraqi civilians, Pakistan and North Korea have ICBMs, the US supplied Al Qaida with weapons, and the US supported the Iraqi gassing of the Kurds . Oh, wait. That was somebody biased to the "left" making those arguments. My bad. "Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do."

It's a matter of record that the US supported Iraq's chemical industry during a time that they were known to be using gas on the Iranians. It's also a matter of record that US companies supplied Iraq with nuclear weapons technology. You can look that up on the US Customs Service web site. >Oh, wait.
