But the real issue here is that the people who voted for Bush, on the
whole,
simply either refuse to believe the factual reports that contradict
everything Bush claimed and claims, or failed to pay attention to those
reports when they were made.


If you are talking about the iraq-terrorism connection then you are dead
wrong. Try reading the 911 commission report before making wild claims.

Which Bush voters? The 64% that still believe that Saddam Hussein was
involved in the 9/11 attacks?


Read the 911 commission report and you will understand.

Mauser is a type of rifle design, not a caliber. Get a clue.


Matt


It's an ACTION design. YOU get a clue.

The Mauser brothers designed a complete rifle. See

True, several attributes of the action design are what remains most
memorable and copied to this day, however, it is equally correct to say
that Mauser was a rifle design. It certainly wasn't a caliber, which is
what was the OP implied, and if you had have a brain you would have
known that.

I have been flying since 1996. In my 1000 hours I have seen an
airplane, not in the vicinity of an airport, maybe 10 times.

Have you been this deluded for a long time or is it something that
happened recently? Polls are statistics, not facts.


Polls are facts about statistics.

Are you claiming that the Gallup poll does NOT substantially describe the
working knowledge of people who supported Bush? If so, you're attempting to
contradict centuries of well-established statistical science.

Sounds to me like it's you that's deluded.

Wow, I've flown south along the west edge of the Washington area
(probably 40 miles from Dulles) and had that many planes called out on
one flight!

I'd say just the opposite. Polls are statistics about facts.

Yes, most of these polls have significant biases.

You need a new hearing aid then.

He said "OF COURSE the exit polls showed Kerry ahead early in the day --
all
the Republicans work for a living, and couldn't vote till after 6 PM!"


The funny part is that is exactly right.
