Remember, Bush is a dangerous liar!

That's 'k then, it's not the first time my tongue-in-cheek has

Maybe- but Bush is a dangerous idiot and a liar.

And who better to know than another dangerous idiot and liar.

Apparently, one who is not.

Thanks, dupe.
Rich

Oh really?

Just listened to Kerry admit to atrocities in Vietnam this morning on
Meet the Press. Who is being duped by whom?

Yes, I heard it also... He said (paraphrased), that some attrocities

(war crimes) happened in Vietnam, and he said that he participated in
some also.

There were a couple of cases where Kerry had either admitted or strongly
implied his complicity in war crimes. It is proven that Kerry is either
an admitted war criminal or a liar about very important issues.

I heard the same show. Clean the wax out of your ears.


It's not the wax in his ears that's distorting his perceptions -
it's the hate in his heart.

Again, Kerry said that there were some war crimes in Vietnam, and

that he must admit that the was involved in some also (paraphrased.)
You can misinterpret his claims, but they were quite clear for the
unbiased that Kerry is an admitted war criminal or a liar.

For the 'wax', it would be a good idea to clean it out of your ears,
and for hatred, it is those who wish to 'throw' Bush out of office
who are so tied up with hate.

MAUREEN DOWD - October 28, 2004 - WASHINGTON -

Some people thought the October surprise would be the President producing
Osama.

Instead, it was Osama producing yet another video taunting the President
and lecturing America.

After bin Laden’s pre-election commentary from his anchor desk at a secure,
undisclosed location, many TV chatterers and Republicans postulated that
the evildoer’s campaign intrusion would help the President.

Possibly.
I strongly suspect that OBL wants Bush in charge rather than Kerry.

There's bitter coffee.

Kemarat Vathananand, a pollution control operator at Schiller
Park-based Castle Metal Finishing Corp., allegedly put lead acetate,
sodium dimethyldithiocarbamate and urine in the coffeepots because he
was angry at a vice president of the company who told him he could
not drink coffee in the shop area, investigators said

...

Schiller Park Police installed a hidden camera at the company Oct.
19, and just over a week later, Vathananand was captured on tape
pouring something into the coffee maker, Stanton said.

"

I heard on TV that he was mad because his boss reprimanded him for not
using a lid on his coffee, while his boss strolled around without a lid
on his coffee.

But there is always more frustration and malice behind such actions.
Usually everyone is ganging up an bullying somebody, and everyone gets
so surprised when their whipping boy finally blows up and goes postal.

"

And should a great injustice befall you, then do quickly five small ones
besides. Hideous to behold is he on whom injustice presseth alone.

Did ye ever know this? Shared injustice is half justice. And he who can
bear it, shall take the injustice upon himself!

A small revenge is humaner than no revenge at all. And if the punishment
be not also a right and an honour to the transgressor, I do not like your
punishing.

...

Finally, my brethren, guard against doing wrong to any anchorite. How
could an anchorite forget! How could he requite!

Like a deep well is an anchorite. Easy is it to throw in a stone: if it

Guard against injuring the anchorite! If ye have done so, however, well

You still think eight glorious fiscal years under Clinton, during which
you and I did very well, were all due to what he inherited upon coming

and I think investors and advanced technocrats such as yourself will do
exceedingly well. However, I suspect you'll still be pissed and unhappy.

Win, you should really do some reading about the macroeconomic
situation, and not from the same old liberal sources. ...

Chris, I am an experienced businessman (15 years) and a longtime student
of the economy. I do not get my opinions from "the same old liberal
sources" as you put it, but from a broad range of observations, tuned by
my own experience and understanding.

Interestingly, it predicted that *both* would make the economy worse
than if we simply changed nothing at all from this point forward. You
might be pleased to know however, that Bush's plan was estimated to
make things more worse than Kerry's.

Bush, I suspect, if elected, will continue in his ruinous policies, and
enhance them for further damage. Kerry would most certainly NOT continue
with nothing changed from this point forward.

As a country we face some rather serious difficulties in competing on the
world-wide labor market with high-quality workers who work at low wages.
Bush will not solve that problem. We had the same problem when Clinton
was in office, but we also got a glimpse of a part of the solution at work,
which is to change the playing field for the overseas participants, and to
force them to compete with us in new areas that we create, in which they
have to play catchup. This cannot be accomplished by pandering to the
established powers, as Bush and the Republican-controlled congress do, but
instead by creating an environment of hope and excitement that encourages
new out-of-the box thinking and and creative business startups, etc. This
is what Clinton did. As a societal mood, it's not something that's well
understood or accurately measured by the same old conservative economic
analysts you customarily turn to.

When as a country we are focused on the positive things in life, treating
our society well, etc., rather than the negative, war, intolerance, moral
control over others, police power, more power to wealthy people and large
corporations, damaging the environment, etc., etc., that's when America's
creative juices of start flowing, and when our amazing creative wellsprings
open up and begin pouring out. This is a reality I have repeatedly seen
and experienced first hand among my friends.

Whether your average conservative admits it or not, that's what we had under
Clinton, and we can get it back I believe, but not under four more years of
Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield, Wolfowitz, and Ashcroft <shudder>.

When as a country we are riding the wild horses of creativity, there are
certainly ups and downs. The dot-com bust is an example, which can hurt
us if when improperly handled. Bush and his cronies have absolutely no
idea of how to ride that wild horse, how to get back in the saddle, how to
urge on the rest of the pack. Instead they pander to our societies worst
instincts. This is not an environment in which we feel and are creative.

As one small example of our country's mood, I offer the plight of our
airlines. It's now clear that we are not collectively afraid of flying.
Yet even though tickets are dirt cheap, our flying miles as a society are
way down in the last few years. We simply don't feel like traveling, our
exuberance is badly damaged. The police-state environment we encounter
when traveling does not help. Excuse me, it does not help our security to
break off the nail-cleaning blade of a passenger's finger-nail clipper,
but it certainly sends a message that small minds are in control, and we
had better h8hunker down. Unfortunately that attitude spreads throughout
our collective psyche, and our creativity and willingness to take business
risks is suppressed.

You've probably hearde it before, but that is a perfect example of the small
minds at work, as well as big business.
While they are breaking off the nailfile they are allowing people to take glass
bottles of flammable liquid abourd as hand luggage (Duty Free).

Seems money once again trumps real security, which reveals that its just window
dressing for the dummies.

Would you rather face a crazed passenger with a nailfile in his hand, or a
broken bottle in one and a firebomb in the other?

if it was early or late and moved a threshold accordingly... this
