I'm talking about the polls favoring the war in Iraq.
People will wise up eventually. They might have pliable minds, but the fact remains that this war is proving to be unjustified. mike regish "Big John" wrote in message ...

And that compares to the war in Iraq how?

The man blew it there but over a personal problem. The republicans had some issues in their own ranks. The guy leading the charge bowed out suddenly when it was discovered he fooled around and he was so proud and righteous before that was pointed out. Stole furniture from White House when he left and had to return it (WSJ and other sources) This sounds bogus to me, can you back that up? Sounds like smear. Cheap smear at that. Cheated on Hillery (admitted on TV) A personal problem that the Republicans helped create and certainly doesn't come into play in performing his duties. Do you also berate co-workers that have had extra-marital affairs? I'll bet you don't since you seemm to have some decency. Comments. I thought I was being nice by not bringing up the under the table pay off to pardon the guy who stole millions from poor old folks and skipped to Switzerland. Vague references to pardons? To be fair you should know that presidential pardons have a history of being ripe smelling to even the most hardened nose. Etc. Etc. Etc Goes on and on and on. Best President we ever had (. Makes Nixon look like 'poster boy' of Presidents. More great usenet humor, remember that the Chinese really liked Nixon. Do you remember why? Nixon liked how they dealt with their affairs. Nixon and the chinese were birds of a feather. BTW, Nixon resigned right. To take someone's personal problems and turn that into "he's a bad president he is human" is a weak argument. Anyway it's all moot, Clinton's no longer president. R. Hubbell Big John On 02 Dec 2003 01:38:48 -0600, David Dyer-Bennet wrote: Big John writes: David Got in this thread and hard to back out.

More than any other president has done. He seems to actually value integrity. Stole furniture from White House when he left and had to return it (WSJ and other sources) Widely debunked. Cheated on Hillery (admitted on TV) Big deal. I take for granted that anybody at that level has "cheated" on their spouse; power is the ultimate aphrodisiac. The cases we actually *hear* about are a tiny portion of the cases that occur, and are randomly selected. Besides, we have no idea what his actual deal with his wife was; so far as I'm concerned she's the only one with standing to complain of his behavior. Comments. There are a few. I notice you've had nothing to say about the fraud Halliburton and Dick Cheney have been profiting from, and the long string of lies out of the White House to get us into this war, and the deliberate "outing" of an undercover CIA operative to punish her husband for writing a report critical of the administration's position (the "yellowcake" scandal). Or his brother's illegally purging black voters from the rolls in Florida to get Bush elected in the first place. Frankly the crimes of this administration take us back to 19th-century levels, or perhaps to third-world hellhole levels. -- David Dyer-Bennet, , www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ RKBA: noguns-nomoney.com www.dd-b.net/carry/ Photos: dd-b.lighthunters.net Snapshots: www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/ Dragaera/Steven Brust: dragaera.info/ |

Why would the best and brightest leave a conservative, capitalist society where their talents and efforts would bring them success to have the fruits of their labors plundered by a socialist regime? Those who would leave would be the failures who THINK they are the best and brightest, taking their degrees in Fench literature and art history with them.
