But, if you look back at the polls from back then the majority of Americans supported Bush.




Yup based on lies ( but hell the PNAC told us exactly where they were going b ack in the 90's) and based on outdoeing his Daddy.. nice reason for getting 3000+ of your fellow countrymen and women killed in an optional war. Incompetence.. the Neo-Con REpublican Party at its best.

>The majority elected.

Bush was originally elected president by neither a majority of the population nor the majority of voters. The only thing more tiresome than left-wingers claiming that Gore really won the election are right-wingers who can't admit that more people voted for Gore than for Bush.



Interesting little delusional fantasy you got there, Bill. It's right up there with Amazon's penchant for labelling anyone who disagree's with him as an ultra-rightwing neocon. :D

BUSH 50,456,002 47.87%
GORE 50,999,897 48.38%

Looks to me like more people voted for Gore than Bush:)


I'll spell it out for you boys, since you seem incapable of grasping the obvious.

OK. It's generally understood that the claim that Gore really won is a heavily used and overplayed claim. It clearly falls under the "beating a dead horse" category.

The key phrase here is "who can't admit that". It's complete non-sense. I can't recall a single time I've heard anyone claim that Gore didn't get the majority of the popular vote. Your assertion that the latter is on par with the former is made up bullshit!!!

You have made a few posts without these kinds of made up issues. Banter with you on those has been great. Do you have any facts to back up any of your statements?

1. Bush is following PNAC....Why?
2. Out doing Daddy. Anything to back up that claim?

Again, this is nothing but an unsupported rant. I LOVE how you ignored how non military Presidents have sent the country to fight BTW. And how Clinton was about as non-military as you can get and sent troops into harms way more than once.

Please, you are smart...Try debating with facts and not attacks or rants.

Why not look up memebers names of the PNAC... and compare them with the men in this Administration.... Bush is their front man and he rewarded them with lucrative jobs of power in his White House... They told us all about nation building back in the 90's yet GW lied about that when asked about nationbuilding in the campaign...( he got off to a good lying start for his regime right there).

For a bunch of moralists that hou guys are.... you certainly forgive all his lies to the American People VERY easily.

That man tried to kill my dad, says Bush
By David Rennie in Washington
Last Updated: 12:22am BST 28/09/2002


President Bush has publicly condemned Saddam Hussein as the man "that tried to kill my dad".

http://www.thoughttheater.com/2006/05/george_bush_shades_of_richard.php

While little can be concluded from these observations, one can put forth the argument that George Bush has a tepid relationship with his father...one that was characterized by a son who followed in his fathers footsteps but rarely achieved the same successes. In many ways, I view their relationship as competitive and I suspect that Barbara Bush has often been the arbiter. One is left to wonder what part this dynamic may have played in the motivation and justification to invade Iraq. As with much of psychology, little can be proven. Nonetheless, sometimes when one strings together enough information it can remain inconclusive but it can also be powerfully convincing.

Once a gain a theory with no proof.

And here comes the attack :"For a bunch of moralists that hou guys are.... you certainly forgive all his lies to the American People VERY easily."

Again you have stated a fact...Saddam did try to kill Bush Sr. But then attached a meaning you can't prove to it.

And your source is nothing more than a guy saying the same thing you have said. And EVEN THERE he says it proves nothing.

It can also be wrong. While situations often do point to a conclusion, they do not ALWAYS. And assuming without proof that they always do is not logical. It requires more evidence to make that correlation.

So interesting theory, but that does not make it fact.

Check out post 83 in this thread, where someone called the idea that Gore won the popular vote a "delusional fantasy."

That's the trouble with this darn internet - it remembers stuff!

What happened to the talk about the Generals?
Or the fact an Admiral is taking over a land based (and operating in) Joint Command as apposed to another Army or maybe a Marine General.

Just asking.

The delusional fantasy was your bullshit claim about all those "right-wingers who can't admit that more people voted for Gore than for Bush"

It's about reading comprehension, sporto.
