  1. Typical word-twisting by a master of twisted thinking. Sorry your words come back to haunt you. But if we're talking about secondhand info, go google " Yamilet Fernandez Donate". Then tell me about the quality healthcare down in Cuba. Again... I was responding to your words. Sorry I didn't read between the lines, inferring what you might mean, rather than taking your words at face value. I think it went downhill when people started offering rationalizations for MM's misleading, deceptive practices. It's okay because his heart is in the right place.
  2. Elitist condescencion noted. And how many times have you witnessed the same in an American hospital?
  3. Thoughtfulness and intelligence? Are those key traits for "well-informed libs"? If that's the case, then Wendy is the only "well-informed lib" who frequents this forum.
  4. A few posts back you wrote -"YAWN, YAWN, YAWN" Now you're saying this is completely unacceptable!!! I don't get it. As another poster addressed - this is probably in a blind trust. Rep. Pelosi has zero input on specific investment decisions.
  5. Dayum Bill. Way to take all the fun out of it.
  6. What are you saying? That even though the Dems control both houses, they're still little more than the President's bitches? You just like to argue don't you? From Wikipedia:
  7. They have passed legislation, have showed leadership on Iraq. But that doesn't get you past a veto. What are you saying? That even though the Dems control both houses, they're still little more than the President's bitches?
  8. Just think how much more intelligent Party Boy would have been if he had not been frying brain cells on Cocaine during his college years and his subsequent "service" in the National Guard. I remember when the Golden Flow program started... I also remember the repercussions of being caught with illicit substances in the urinalysis...Party Boy did not bother to show up for the last year of his "service" since he did not take that flight physical.. that would also have forced him to provide a sample of his cocaine laced urine...and with his family connections.. never had any repercussions for his actions.. You say he has some bad administration skills.. for such a Masters in Business Administration from Harvard he sure has made some "interesting" business blunders... in his rather unstellar carreer. So yes... diminished capacity CERTAINLY applies. If nothing else,... you're consistent.
  9. I'm not really a lefty (believe it or not), but this is perplexing. I wonder - where are historical numbers for congressional approval published? I keep hearing 'historic low', but where is the history? Assuming this is true, what would increase approval? Ending the war? Free beer for all citizens? Here are some recent numbers. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/polls/archive/?poll_id=18#data As far as raising job approval - how about actually getting something done. Seems like it's all about infighting. The voters said they want new leadership in Congress. The Dems have yet to demonstrate much leadership. Underlying message - You bums are no better than the last bums.
  10. In this context you are... see ANYONE who is not with them on the far right... is indeed to the left of their position.. including what would normally be regular run of the mill conservatives and moderates. When you are THAT far to the right.. EVERYONE looks like a lefty to you. And still more projection.
  11. More Neo Con Projection..... More Bush hater projection.
  12. We all have our own unique interpretation of what people mean.
  13. Libby got a "Get out of jail free" card... Bush is still in the White House... and... approval numbers for the Democratically controlled Congress remain at historic lows. It's gotta suck being a lefty.
  14. Anyone know when OJ cut Nicole's head off??? That question, like yours, is moot. The case was decided and verdict delivered by a jury. This is great. You make a point about Fitzgerald, which I assume you thought was somehow relevant... otherwise you wouldn't have made it. I spread a little sunshine on it and you claim it's moot. Interesting strategy.
  15. Anyone know when Armitage leaked Wilson's identity to Woodward?
  16. That whole Bush Hater thing is sooooo tired. But not nearly as tired as that whole neo-con thing. I wonder if you'll get the underlying point.
  17. And another voting block spends all their time obsessing over matters that have zero impact on them directly, going about their lives caught up in a doom and gloom fantasy... kind of a neuroses gone wild mentality, while those around take advantage of all that life has to offer. Your turn. BTW This is a really dumb game.
  18. Here's a newsflash - President Bush isn't all that popular among Republicans, right now. I know this runs counter to the simplistic view many Bush-haters have of Republicans/conservatives. It is what it is.
  19. The price of corn has fallen 20 per cent in the last month, at it's lowest prices for the year. Conversely, Soybeans made a new three year high on Tuesday. It seems the herd mentality produced unintended consequences.
  20. So what? Where does it say Cheney instructed Libby to out Plame? Fitzgerald produced no evidence... zero, zilch, zip, nada.. no evidence of Libby being instructed to do so. Here we are four years later, a lengthy investigation and trial... the case has been put under the microscope... and Joe Wilson's claim of the White House maliciously outing his wife has been shown to be a blatant lie. Sadly, many of the Bush haters out there can't face up to the facts of this little drama. Boohoo. You mean the guy who was the first juror to speak to the press? Who lined up a spot on Larry King Live the day the trial ended? You mean the guy who posted a seven page story about being a juror on the Huffington Post, the following day? The guy who was very public about his 15 minutes of fame? Ooo, let's pretend he speaks for all the jurors.
  21. and around here, some people make some profoundly stupid analogies, thinking they are make solid arguements. This whole Kent State comparison to the potential threat of using the military to control the overall population is fucking moronic. So is the comparison of present-day life in America to colonial 1775. Sometimes I just want to yell - Hey you stupid fucking whiners. Pull your heads out of your asses and look around. I mean really look around. Wipe that shit out of eyes. You never had it so good. In the history of man, no one ever had it so good. So while you're bitchin' and moanin' about how retchedly bad things are in this country, about how George Bush has done irreparable harm to this country and destroyed the Constitution, don't begrudge those who consider the present as being a pretty awesome time to be alive.
  22. Don't forget slavery. That was real popular.
