No, it doesn't.
"As a result the American people have lost confidence in their government and most of the media sources of information who have lied continuously to the masses. We are tired of being lied to and we're not gonna take it anymore."
Hell YEAH!!
"And you can damn well count on the fact that the FBI also knows when the next attack will hit America for sure!"
Hmmmm...I'm not so sure any of our intelligence agencies know the "when" and "where" of the "next attack"...heck, they may not even know if this DeeCeeSniper is an Islamic Jihadist or simply some UnibomberII EnviroWhacko!!

"Some RINOs are the only kind of Republicans who can possibly be elected to office in certain liberal districts or states. Nancy Johnson of Connecticut is a good example. She can usually be counted on to follow the leadership when her vote is critical. When it is not critical, she gets their permission to vote the other way so as to remain in office. In the crunch, Johnson DID vote to impeach clinton, even though it was very dangerous to her political health.
"Some RINOs are true mavericks. They do what they like and never try to square it with the leadership. A prime example is McCain, who goes out of his way to make trouble and basically does whatever feeds his large ego. Most of his actions seem predicated not on the necessities of getting re-elected but on the desire to make as much trouble as possible for his own party. Another example is Amo Houghton, who voted against impeachment and more recently against the Iraq measure. Or Peter King, who went out of his way to undermine the Republicans in the weeks before impeachment, appearing on talk shows and lying about how his colleagues planned to vote. Or Chris Shays.
"Then regretably there are RINOs who are put into office by a failure of nerve on the part of the national leadership. In some districts a conservative actually would do better than a RINO, but for some inscrutable reason the RNC imposes a RINO on the local party anyway. This is sheer foolishness, and is a legitimate reason to give your money to candidates whom you support and not to the RNC.
"I don't know Scott Tate, but if this post is accurate, it sounds as if he is the person to vote for. The best can be the enemy of the good in certain cases. Politics is the art of the possible. You want as good as you can get, but you need to have common sense and prudence, too.

Nice analysis, my FRiend...MUD
Why as a matter of fact, I do, sultan.
The final was Steelers 28, Dolts 10.
I'm pleased to say the Steelers are now playing .500 ball; and, unfortunately, the Deadskins have never really looked any deader after having their ticket punched but-good by the Slackers up in Greenbay.
Be that as it may, the bet to which I *officially* oversee is as follows, and now *Certified* per FoxSports:
Steelers 3W & 3L
Deadskins 2W & 4L
You, sultan, look like you're going to be having one hellova night "on the town."
(~make it an expensive outing, sultan; one that'll cost that boy his *pants*?)
...but first, ya gotta get better!
"Pointing to the loss of $5 trillion in total market capitalization since January 2001, the Democrats have chosen to pin the blame for the market's decline on President Bush's policies. While it's certainly true that the market has declined during this period, efforts to tie Bush to the market slide falls way short of proving a connection."

Sure!!
As long as you pay your debts, anything you say Mud.
I mean, being a Deadskins fan is one thing and forgivable.
While being a plain ol' deadbeat quite another matter, eh?
...now you try real hard keeping that in mind as the season's winding-down, y'hear? *LOL*
Of course they do. One cannot afford to be so naive of such details like this. History has proven that just by reading JW's Fatal Neglect
What we should be doing is sending thousands of our men and women in uniform to monitor our borders instead of overseas so that another 9-11 doesn't happen. It starts with the protecting of our borders. How do you think the terrorists who attacked 9-11 got in? They were illegally in the country to begin with. Had our INS been doing the job they were supposed to be doing, 9-11 would not have happened.
From page 22 of the book entitled, Waiting for the next Shoe To Drop: September 11 Prior Knowledge by Dennis Lawrence Cuddy:
"And in case anyone questions whether the Bush administration supports the Saudi elite today, one might read in the October 1, 2001, London Times "How FBI helped bin Laden family flee U.S." At a time when literally hundreds of people who might have knowledge related to the terrorist attacks of September 11 are being detained by American authorities, this article shows dramatically different treatment for the Saudi elite, including the bin Laden family. The article says:
"Twenty-four members of Osama bin Laden's family were secretly removed from the United States under FBI guard after the terrorist attacks....Immediately after the attacks they were taken under FBI escort to Texas. From there they went to Washington, D.C., and the safety of the Saudi Embassy. As soon as U.S. airports reopened, the relatives were flown back to Saudi Arabia."
The article also states that the departure was organized by Prince Bandar bin Sultan, Saudi Arabia's ambassador to Washington, who is "a leading Washington figure with close ties to the Bush family." About one hundred forty members of the Saudi royal family were also sent home. How could U.S. officials know so quickly that none of these people had any knowledge pertaining to the terrorist attacks?"
OMG. Interesting!

I was cheering my keister off as the knowledgeable, articulate -- albeit lovable -- fuzzball took apart the Liberal-Socialist 'Rats & their scams with scientific precision.
...it was *gloriusssssss*!
From another thread, a discussion about whether or not America should hold Bill Clinton accountable for the multiple felonies he and his Administration have committed...
bayourod in bold
"...focus only on the question of whether Bill Clinton should be brought to trial. This was the great question when Nixon resigned and Ford pardoned him because he didn't think the nation should be put through the ordeal of a trial of Mr. Nixon."
First off, Nixon was never accused of committing a criminal offense vis a vis Watergate. Ford pardoned him, but there was never an actual law broken...I would argue that Clinton has committed multiple felonies that, if prosecuted, would have him in jail until the day he passed on to his Final Judgement.
"Some of the considerations should be:
1. How serious was the offense? Was it a technical violation such as comingling union contributions in hard money accounts; or was it a universally recognized crime such as murder of a potential witness?"
While I seriously believe Clinton has most likely conspired to have folks murdered, I've yet to see the concrete evidence; still, just because he's an ex-POTUS, should he be allowed to get away with rampant Abuse of Power, blatant Obstruction of Justice and Perjury, and making a mockery of our existing Campaign Finance Laws? I say no.
"2. What was the impact of the crime on the nation? Was the impact negligible like pardoning someone for going AWOL during World War II; or does the crime threaten the very existence of the country, such as selling China the secrets enabling them to destroy every major city in the nation?
As the highest-ranking member of the Executive Branch, IMHO Clinton's crimes have done major damage to the legitimacy of our government, and thereby the "very existence of the country." How can a blatant abuser of our laws be allowed to go absolutely unpunished in a Land that claims that NO MAN IS ABOVE THE LAW?! Explain that to the teenager imprisoned for smoking a weed in his basement.
"3. How strong is the evidence? Is it circumstantial, relying on the testimony of dubious witnesses; or is there incontrovertable physical evidence such as video recordings and records written in Bill's hand?"
The arrogance Clinton has displayed in committing multiple felonies has resulted in a carelessness that will bear fruit in any SERIOUS investigation of his crimes. There are many, many people within his sphere of influence who know where the skeletons are buried, and they have likewise committed crimes in his service. As these underlings are brought to Justice and plead out, they will provide valuable testimony linking Clinton to any number of crimes that you and I may never even been aware of. And Clinton has been extremely sloppy in leaving documented proof of his guilt to be readily discovered by hungry investigators.
"4. Was the offense committed as an official act, such as selling seats on trade missions, or was it entirely separate from official duties, such as rape?"
SHEEESH, my FRiend, I cannot believe you actually believe this is a consideration. We are a Nation of Laws, and if those laws are legitimate enough to prosecute you or me for, why not some hayseed from Arkansas?
"5. Would prosecution cause bitter division among Americans because the offense is one that people hold strongly held opposite opinions on, such as lying about having sex because that's what gentlemen are taught to do; or one that everyone is in agreement on, such as using FBI files to blackmail elected officials?"
Once again, if folks are going to argue that the Laws are invalid, how come we don't see an uprising calling for said laws to be revoked, so that you and I cannot be held accountable for them, just like the ex-Most Powerful Man in the FReeWorld?!
"6. How would prosecution effect future policy. Would it create a public outcry for campaign finance reform that would result in destruction of our First Amendment rights and turn the government over to liberal Democrats? Would it appear to Democrat voters as petty vindictiveness on the part of Republicans that would result in such a backlash that Democrat Senators would be forced to reject confirmation of pro-life judges?"
Here, my FRiend, you are arguing political strategy. Fair enough, as that seems to be most FReepers' argument against holding the ex-First Felon accountable for his many crimes against this Nation. My response is that this is a very important time in our Country's history, as we are deciding whether or not We the Sheeple will sit idly by and allow Rampant Corruption to go on at the highest echelons of the Federal Guv'ment, and do absolutely NOTHING!! SHEEESH...Clinton's not a frickin' KING...he's no different than you or I!! Are LeftWing DemocRATS going to actually argue that a corrupt ex-POTUS should be allowed to get away with committing multiple felonies? If so, are the Sheeple going to go along meekly and support those same hopelessly-corrupt individuals in the next election? If so, we've already lost this Country, and we should readily expect to go the way of the once-great Roman Empire.
"Now to answer your question. I believe we elected a President who is of extremely high moral character who loves this country and is trying as hard as he can to do what he sincerely believes is best for our nation. I believe that he chose an honest, conscientious, competent Attorney General. I have complete confidence in their judgment and will support whatever decisions that they make."
Here, my FRiend, we are in complete agreement...however, I believe Dubyuh and Ashcroft need to hear from folks who "sincerely believe [what] is best for our nation" is that the Guilty--no matter how Powerful or allegedly popular--are brought to Justice!! Are we a Nation of Laws? Or are certain folks in this Country ABOVE the Laws that govern and restrict the rest of us?
Seriously, my fellow FReepers, am I just a Right-Wing Whacko for expecting the Laws of this Nation to apply to ALL Americans...even those who once held office at the highest echelons of our Federal Guv'ment?!
