***George W. Bush: Master Politician and Great American***

It was so clean it was un-noticed by his enemies, and decried by his supporters, but GWB has just demonstrated a political ability that no-one on the left, and very few on the right ever saw.....

I always refer to the old Zorro scene with Basil Rathbone as the villian slicing a candle to show Tyrone Power how deft he is with a sword, because when "Zorro" does it the candle doesn't move....(The point is then shown that Tyrone's cut was SOOOOO smooth he sliced the candle so well he cut it without moving it....a truly great scene)

The First Lady did the same thing to Algore with her "...My husband sleeps with a teacher EVERY night..." comment that was so smooth a cut most of the media hasn't picked up the wound even today....

Well good Freeper Friends, that's what Old George did to the left with Johnny McCain's unconstitutional CFR Bill....

He fooled them into passing a billl that allowed more hard money, (something they would never ever allowed because it has NEVER, EVER been raised by anyone like our Commander and Chief) allowing them to include provisions that they thought would give them the edge, while knowing that others would attack and have thrown out all the offending provisions before they ever took effect, but the severably would allow the things not challanged to stand: Outcome

hard money limits have been raised and will stay raised, and the bad parts will be strck down, and we can now see that McCain was always working with GWB and the poor dems never knew it.....

What a political play.......cut to the bone and not even seeing it til after surgery is complete......

I am not posturing, nor hysterical. I am angry that our President
has deliberately misled his party and ignored his oath.
Compromising your principles for political expediency is bad
enough, but to attack the foundation of our basic freedoms is
beyond reproach.

You and I will just have to disagree with each other.
I'm hoping the SCOTUS strikes it down, but their rulings
have surprised people before.

I read the article, and not a single post. I am in awe. Have you ever seen " the king of hearts"? "highlander"? " le peite theatre du Jean Renoir?"," Hiroshima mon amour?" I love the artsy fartsy stuff. I am responding to a post of yours from 4 months ago. I am so amazed at this place. Welkcome to the virgin diaries, my next book. LoL
