Actually, I agree. Clinton shouldn't have supported the 'three strikes law'. It's totally arbitrary and a prime example of the 'law of unintended consequences.' So, you were right, Clinton is at least partially to blame. But I wasn't then, nor am I now a big Clinton fan. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Where exactly is this giant hole you live in, and how deep is it? And this is a state by state thing, and Clinton had nothing to do with it. So, I guess "get tough on crime" and "the war on drugs" were liberal ideas? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

kallend: See what I mean about taking my share of abuse? Amazon: I'm not an ultra-rightie. I'm an atheist, and I'm in favor of abortion, up to a point. Sorry to burst your bubble of perception. Huh? That makes about as much sense as "I'm not a liberal, I believe in God". Hypocrisy is the act of pretending to have beliefs, virtues and feelings that one does not truly possess. By definition, Limbaugh is a hypocrite. To me, that is much worse than being a drug addict. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Go ask the guys in jail for life with 3 possession of pot charges if my statement was a generalization. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

What in the name of God are you talking about? Seriously - help me understand. Was that a troll? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Must....fight.....overwhelming.....urge.....for.......giant....personal....attack.... Are you fucking kidding me? Activist court? PLEASE tell me this is a joke. If so, it's brilliant. The truth hurts huh? So, I guess Rush Limpballs called them out as activist judges on the announcement? And no, the truth does not hurt, but evidently the law does. Just ask dubya, because the POTUS just got bitchslapped by the SCOTUS. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

You beat me to it! The Supreme Court ruled by a majority. Therefore, Dubbie decides to go with a seperate opinion scribbled down by one of the minority!!? Sounds like he's only listening to what he wants to hear. My 3 year old & 6 year old does that as well... Unfortunately, this is a little more serious than: "You may not watch Scooby-Doo for 5 hours". Interesting that the "Drive-By Briefing" he received wasn't sufficient to answer press questions but WAS sufficient for him to make a decision! We're back to the same old question. Is he evasive and incompetent, or stupid as well? Mike. Will he press for a sonstitutional ammendment in this case as well? Will he back the USA out of the Geneva Convention? When, exactly, will he abide by the law? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Out of control??? For taking Justice Breyer's advice? From your quoted news article: He is like an infant. When mommy says no, go ask daddy. Luckily, I think congress has had just about enough of him. We'll see. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

This guy is out of control. I pray congress puts a stop to his defiance of them and the supreme court. Bush vows to pursue detainee war trials By TERENCE HUNT, AP White House Correspondent 20 minutes ago WASHINGTON - After a Supreme Court decision overruling war crimes trials for Guantanamo Bay detainees, President Bush suggested Thursday he would seek Congress' approval to proceed with trying terrorism suspects before military tribunals. "To the extent that there is latitude to work with the Congress to determine whether or not the military tribunals will be an avenue in which to give people their day in court, we will do so," he said. "The American people need to know that the ruling, as I understand it, won't cause killers to be put out on the street." Bush said little more, saying he had received only a "drive-by briefing" on the ruling just out earlier Thursday morning. The Supreme Court decided that Bush's proposed trials for certain detainees at the controversial U.S. prison in Cuba were illegal under U.S. law and international Geneva conventions. A separate opinion, written by Justice Stephen Breyer, appeared to invite Bush to go to Congress to seek the authority to change that, and Bush's short answer indicated that is his intention. The president declined to say whether the decision would prompt him to more quickly follow through on his promise to close the prison, as many world leaders and human rights groups have urged. "We will seriously look at the findings," Bush said. "I will protect the people and at the same time conform with the findings of the Supreme Court." Bush also warned North Korea not to test-fire a long-range missile, saying Pyongyang must tell the world its intentions for any launch. "Launching the missile is unacceptable," Bush said in the East Room news conference alongside Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi. Bush said that he and the Japanese leader discussed concerns about what is loaded onto the missile and where North Korea intends to aim it. He asked the North Koreas to make their plans more clear. "There have been no briefings as to what's on top of the missile. He hasn't told anybody where the missile's going," the president said in a reference to North Korean leader Kim Jong Il. "He has an obligation, it seems like to me and to the prime minister, that there be a full briefing to those of us who are concerned about this issue as to what his intentions are." Said Koizumi, through a translator: "Should they launch a missile, that will cause various — we would apply various pressures. ... I believe it is best that I do not discuss what specific pressures we were talking about." Bush said the situation with Pyongyang presents an opportunity to increase global cooperation on missile defense systems. "The Japanese cannot afford to be held hostage to rockets. And neither can the United States or any other body that loves freedom," the president said. "And so one really interesting opportunity is to share and cooperate on missile defenses." -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

[reply he's an entertainer with a radio show, like Howard Stern but with less profanity. Less profanity, yes. Less harm, no. But it is funny to see the right defend a drug addict entertainer. Where were they for Robert Downey Jr? They don't feel this way about drug addicts in general - in general, they want them in jail, or worse. They only feel this way about THEIR drug addicts. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

I recently started IAD, and I do usually go home after I jump. I am slowly getting to know a few folks, and will probably hang out more as I go along. Maybe this is more of an issue at the big DZ's, because at the small/club DZ I visit, everything is pretty mellow as far as I can tell.

Limbaugh has instructed his followers how to interpret statements like yours: They're supposed to presume you're lying about having once been on their side. Clever tactic. Absolutely. I hear Rush say it all the time "you're a seminar caller." Who the F needs a seminar to know how to argue with Limpballs? I offered to post a picture of me holding the Rush books bought and read in my dittohead days, but that got no response. Perhaps you'd like to speak with my wife? But then I guess she would just be lying too? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Yes, Rush Limpballs is an entertainer. Unfortunately, the trailer-dwelling poor white trash who champion him think he is an authority on everything. Then why does he bother you so much? I think pretty much the same of Al Franken, but I don't see his name brought up nearly as much as Limbaugh. Because I used to believe him. At some point I started to question his ideas - One day he was ranting that Tourette's was a made up disease, and just an excuse for children who wanted to swear all the time. Well, that did it for me. From that point on I questioned everything he said, because if he was speaking with such authority on something he was so ignorant of, what other bullshit was coming out of his mouth. As it turns out, a LOT of bullshit. Yaaaa, you used to support and like Bush. Now you are saying you used to like and listen to Rush I think I know where the BS is coming from I did. I voted once for Bush, and then for Kerry. I had high hopes for Bush, as coming in I thought he was a very likeable, stand-up kind of guy. I was mistaken. I, like you, used to defend people like Bush and Limpballs no matter what they did. Well, that is not the way to go IMO. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Give me a break. Limpballs admitted he was an addict. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/rushletters2.html Being an addict (which he admited) and the charge of dr shopping are way different. How do you suppose addicts get their necessary large doses of their chosen prescription drug? It doesn't really matter in the end. He was exposed as a hypocrite and a fraud. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Nah. I worked for a PBS affiliate. I believe the salary they paid me qualified me as unemployed. And yes, I kept my Rush habit to myself. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

I think they were referring to the multiple oxycontin prescriptions from various doctors. And someone on probation for prescription drug offenses should know better than to have mislabeled drugs on their person. It's funny that Clinton and Limpballs had their penises in the news for one reason or another. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Ann Coulter follows the same pattern. It's successful. Rush is a thoughtful moderate compared to that crazy bitch. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

I listened to him for YEARS - 8-10 or so. I read his books. I have "The Way Things Ought to Be" and "See, I Told You So" on my bookshelf. If you don't believe me, I'll take a photo of myself holding the books and post it. I still listen 1-2 times a week over my lunch break. I didn't listen today, but I know he had a guest host a few days ago... Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

The last flag burning I saw was in a documentary on Discovery, and was done not by a bunch of lefties, but by a group of skinheads. They burned the flag in the same ceremony as burning the cross. The whole thing was rather comical. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

I think you are drawing from your own admitted gullibility and experiences and actually know very little about the average listener. Really? So who is the AVERAGE listener? Evidently, they have no job, as Rush is on from 12-3 pm. Either that, or they have a job working in a warehouse or driving a taxi - where they can play the radio. Oh, and I know the local barber shop plays Rush, so the barbers are in the demographic. OK, so that's not the average Rush listener..... Anyway, there are hoardes of misinformed people who follow him without question. Those are the ones that concern me. He is full of shit much of the time, but represents it as fact, and many, many people buy into it. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

The uneducated, gullible people on the right who follow Rush do not see him as an entertainer - they see him as someone telling the TRUTH. They take what he says as gospel. In that way he is a very powerful and influential person, and the extra scrutiny is warranted. And the fact that he is a GIANT hypocrite doesn't help him either. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
