almost like the young leading the young, is like the blind leading the blind, they all fall into a ditch...in this case it is the senile leading the senile.

Why are you always on the computer with your rants? Shouldn't you be making dinner for your husband or something constructive?

I haven't heard of big ralleys being organized by the majority of American's requesting impeachment.
The liberals got the impeachment idea back when Bill Clinton was impeached.The reason there are no big ralleys comes down to the basic flaw of the liberal agenda. The liberals want everyone to think their way of looking at things is a majority view. And in their minds , it may be. Most liberals are influenced by their peers at the coffee shops, university campus functions, and by listening to public radio. When you sit down and really listen to a liberal, you realize that a liberal is so narrow minded and full of hate....... just like the far right individuals. They have no real credibility with the general mainstream of society.[Which they hate.} Of course, when you point out to a liberal that they are the most impotent political group in America and that the mainstream controls this country, they get upset. And when a liberal gets upset, watch out......... He will grab a latte TO GO!!!!!!!
What we have going on now in America is a certain bunch of younger, easily influenced students that are looking to identify themselves with someone or something. Most young people go thru this. But this particular bunch is romanticize by the 60's. They want to be like Jerry Rubin and the rest. But what they don't want to think about is what these activists ended up doing the rest of their lives. The majority of them conformed to societys standards for the almighty dollor.
But the Democratic party needs to wake up. They no longer represent the working man in America. The working man see the Democrats giving their jobs away to illegal aliens, taking a chunk out of their paycheck for welfare entitlements, and bringing the level of the public schools down so "Jonny Can Play Football." Oh yeah ....... Do they discuss anything about re-building unions? I haven't heard anything about that, but the democrats want the "gays" to know that they matter alot. And the Republicans want the Democrats to have that vote. The Democratic Party is so desperate they put Howard Dean in charge.
This Cheney thing is such a non-issue when it comes to political importance.What I like about Cheney is his "Kiss my ass' attitude toward the press. The press is made up of bottom feeders and Cheney treat s them as such.

Most people that vote .....legally, work and pay taxes. Some of those people do support the dems, but they and the dems media are slowly being exposed . The reporting of the Cheney thing is an example of that. They are going overboard on a question that has been asked and answered. I normally wouldnt use Wurm as an example of the voice of reason, but he didnt eevn wheigh in on this. It was too stupid. CNN seems to think this is BIG though..Hmmm wonder why

Wurm hasn't been around for awhile. Maybe the Republicans had him censored for exposing all their garbage.

That's odd. I had heard that the local law enforcement had overheard, on the scanner, that an ambulance was dispatched to the scene of the crime as it were, and were told upon thier arrival: "Nothing to see here so, shove-off". Incidentally are you a emigre' (sp.-"labour"-UK, "labor"-U.S.) Just wondering. If you want to stay in the shadows thats alright too. It is your prerogative & no, I am not referring to Britney Spears last cd

Its not that we are bitter so much as we are disgusted/embarrassed/dismayed by this administrations criminality, partly due to intent and partly due to incompetence. These do not serve very well as motivating factors for the opposition. The repub's have done such a good job of undermining themselves that the dem's and indies only have to sit back and watch them implode

The fact that they need to focus all their energy on such things as this is an indication that have not a clue as what to do about real issues.
Yes,it is hillarious that Cheney shot his buddy,but even funnier that we dwell on it for days.

Last I heard, in the U.S. at least, shooting someone, w/o provocation, is illegal. This is not important If enforcing the criminal code "has no bearing on important issues", pray tell, what does

That is really funny if not ironic.

Like I said before the Dems will have a chance to put someone in the office in a few years. They have been real successful these past few years and with Dean in charge us repub's will be eager to jump ship and vote based on the "non-platform" or "our only agenda is to find out the repub's agenda and say it is the opposite" or "what ever is totally immoral is our agenda."

seems the democrats, on any substantive level, are in step with the repubs, have been all along. this may be changing due to flag-draped body bags, or as wolfix sums it up on perhaps what is to more significant terms to joe six pack of middle america, gas prices, otherwise the differences are largely symbolic.

so yeah,
BLAH BLAH BLAH.

glad to clear this up for you, it may save you the embarrassment of arguing there is any great deal of partisan cause which to take sides upon between these ruling parties.

Finding someone willing to withstand the onslaught of the republican smear campaign, eg: S.Carolina, McCain 2000, is not an easy process. Besides, you "fellows" have been in office only @ 6 yrs. President Clinton was in office 8 yrs. accompanied by relative tranquility, aside from the neo-con, republican "witch-hunt" to prove that Clinton was, in fact, a heterosexual w/ a tab to the taxpayers to the tune of @$300,000,000 (Starr-heck of a guy). Your President, aside from slashing social-programs to enable him to transfer MORE wealth to the already wealthy has'nt accomplished much. The deficit & debt are spiraling out of control under his watch. He, Dick, Rummy, Perle, Rove, Rice et al have turned pretty much the entire world against us (U.S.). Etc., ect, ect...

just because both bushes dig pics of a partially clad saddam does not necessarily mean they are not hetero as well, remember, let's not generalize...

after all, if they bled their dragons on a more regular basis perhaps the world would catch a break from what seems pent up aggression.
