If Zell Miller is what democrats used to be I can
see why they had the House for 40 years. I moved out of Georgia in '81, but I liked Miller a lot back then. I live in Atlanta now and we (most of us) are very proud of him. The Zell Miller speech was the most amazing thing I've seen in modern politics. We watched, cynically at first, wondering what this idiot was going to say. I have little respect for politicians in general, and speechifiers especially raise my shields. I automatically assume everything they're about to say is B.S. By the end, I was actually cheering out loud. I've never heard a Democrat say so many things I've been feeling for so many years. Say what you want about the guy -- he sure delivers a helluva speech.

Yes, nothing Kerry or Bush could have done would have made any difference at all. Micheal Moore could have just as easily attacked Kerry and made him look stupid. I can just see the cut backs with Kerry sitting in a stupor and then seeing the planes hitting the buildings. Its all propaganda ![]() LG |

"Jay Honeck" wrote: I don't care if the Europeans appreciate us or not IIRC, they don't appreciate it, YMMD , just so long as they don't drag us into another stupid World War. heck, you declared and entered war formally when attacekd on your own soil (Pearl Harbor). Until then you helped the British with supplies. At that time the Nazis shot down american ships at the US east cost and nazi-submarines waited close to the harbour of NY and cruised along the shoreline of Florida. AFAIK there have also been rules to darken the windows in cities at night. you would not have entered WWII *in* *Europe* with not seeing only very big advantages. You haven't done it because you where nice guys. So, your argument is that we were already involved in the war in Europe before Pearl Harbor, but we would not have gotten involved in the war in Europe if we had not been attacked at Pearl Harbor. Am I understanding that correctly? |

In an on-the-air (*) broadcast, a BBC announcer was trying to explain the difference between the Republicans and the Democrats to his British audience. "The Republicans are verry like our ... ahhh ... Conservatives. The Democrats are verry like our ... ahhh ... Conservatives." (*) "on-the-AIR" makes this on-topic {;-) My understanding is that the democratic party was not liberal enough for the Canadians. They now have a liberal party in addition to the democrat party. If you feel guilty that you have the means to fly an airplane, you are a democrat. If you feel proud that you have succeeded enough in life to afford a plane, you are a republican. |
