I don't much care for Grover's affinity for Moslems and his opposition to the National Retail Sales Tax, but his analysis in this article is a fine read and I sincerely hope it proves propheticly true!
Sulphurous DemoncRAT burnt toast bump!
Had that had been me, this is how the conversation would have unfolded:
He: Our organization is trying to undo all the damage Bush and Cheney have done to the environment.
Me: Yeah because I still cant get that taste of cyanide out of my mouth from the tap water I drank. And that three eyed fish I had for lunch the other day left something to be desired.
He: So are you willing to donate?
Me: You know I'd love to, but here later I'm gonna poke my eardrums out with some chopsticks and maybe have some guys from a motorcycle gang kick my a$$.
He: Obviously you don't want to see the truth.
Me: Yeah, silly me. Look over there! (Points toward sky) Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Superman! Maybe he'll save the environment from GWB?
He: I don't need to waste my time with you.
Me: Well, excuse me! Guess I'm too good to talk to the Environmental Crusader!
He: I can't talk to someone who won't see the truth.
Me: Why not, I'm talking to you, would you like me to give you a few pointers?
He: There's no point. You'll chose to believe lies.
Me: Hey, it's working out well for you. Hey, if the earth is getting warmer, how come I have to throw on three layers of clothes in January?
He: Because you choose to ignore the truth
Me: No because if I did, then I'd be going door to door soliciting funds cleaning up imaginary environmental disasters. Tell you what, I'll give you a quarter. And with that quarter you can walk your a$$ down to the payphone down the street, where you can then call someone who cares. Good Day!
Now, I'm not slighting your effort, I think you handled it well, it's just that I would have handled it....differently. By the way, where the hell do you live where leftists solicit funds door to door? In my apartment we just have kids selling candy and magazines.
I have been saying since the start of this whole thing, President Bush needs to stand there and name each country,, no matter how long it takes. Not just say a "coalition" he needs to name names and name each one of them- so the American public hears how many other countries are doing what John Kerry and the Democrats will not do! Please- someone tell him to do this during the debates!!! IT would be very powerful!The people I know who think we are "going this alone" would be blown away!!!
I plan on posting this list a lot.
Just did a "run" on the "other forums" with this list.
I also was tired of "the LIE" and did some research myself
today.
It's growth is the state of health? Who writes this stuff?
Good job! I read a list like this to a friend of mine a while ago who was leaning toward John Kerry. It really did change his mind. I hope your list is seen by many folks.
I didn't mention that he was shaking like a leaf. I was actually trying to be easy on him. He finally started yelling at me when he got halfway across the yard. (Brave guy).
I live in an area where people have bumper stickers on their cars that say things like "friends don't let friends vote Republican." It used to piss me off but now it is such a joy to sit back and watch them all self destruct because they can't lie anymore. (Well they can but "Buckhead" and the rest of us will catch them.)
Bumping your list.
So Mr. Norquist contends that trial lawyers control the Democratic Party. No kidding. How long did it take him to deduce that?
They siphon off some $240 billion a year--$40 billion of which stays with a few thousand lawyers. Labor unions, once the godfather of the Democratic Party but now displaced by the richer and more photogenic trial lawyers, cannot maintain their $8 billion in compulsory union dues without the laws that make such payments mandatory.
What a clear description of the coming Death. I will not miss the Demodogs, and hope the Socialist buddies they have cultivated all move to France. /
I am with you. The GOP is terribly bad about caving to the 'Rats so that they don't look like the bad guys.
It isn't always caving to the Democrats. It's failing to take over ground that is lost by the Democrats, presumably in the hopes of earning some good will from the Democrats or because the Republicans in question are just risk-averse.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Jamais reculez á tyrannie un pouce!

Thank you for this very interesting info! I appreciate the breakdown of troop numbers.
I see "Springtime For The Democrats" as a perennial Broadway production. And none too soon.
I think you may be right about the splintering of the dems, but I think you may see a similar splintering of the Republican Party.
Right now the Republican Party is a fragile coalition of the social conservatives (spearheaded by the religious right), Second Amendment advocates, fiscal conservatives, hawks, and libertarians.
If they do not have a common enemy like the dems, the libertarians may well become a real political force. They have nothing in common with social conservatives and are split on military issues. They will value the second amendment and will agree with the fiscal conservatives on government spending and free market initiatives.
The libertarians (or any other third party) will have no chance as long as there are two dominant parties. With the former opposition splintered (balkanized to use your example), however, they may feel that they can appeal to the social liberals and civil libertarians in the former dem party as well as the fiscal conservatives and Second Amendment Advocates from the Republican Party.
Whacha think?
