Isn't that like using the Twinkie defense? How can you prove that?

Well you have the second one wrong. I have legions of pet primates
that are free because of the subisdies I pay, rather than receive.

Please note my handle, thanks,

An index/ring finger length ratio > 1 is associated with being gay.

I wonder if this will change Stevie's attitudes toward homosexuality.
You know, now that he's out.

Maybe he skipped the pheasant and just shot her in the face. The
welfare of fetuses would be unchanged, although the birds would be
better off.

You have listed a couple of myths there.
The Big Lie is that the Republicans cut taxes. They don't, they defer
them. That's a crucial distinction. The entire amount of their "tax
cuts" has been rolled into the national debt, and we are forced to pay
interest on it. Using their definition, you can "cut your taxes" on
your own by simply "paying" them with a credit card. Do the math. If
you still think those are "tax cuts" are real, I've got a bridge to
nowhere I'll sell you cheap... with handy carrying case.

Responsible govt from Republicans? BWHAHAHAHA! Republicans don't
believe in govt. Electing Republicans is like asking an atheist to
pray for you. Perfect example- Mitt Romney cited the Katrina disaster
as an example of how govt can't do anything right. It's true, it
can't... if it's run by Republicans. They put Michael Brown, an
official of the International Arabian Horse Association, in charge of
FEMA!

Or look at mess in Iraq. What's responsible about starting a war over
non-existent WMD's... and then losing it? Even highly trained, well
equipped, highly motivated troops can't overcome incompetent
leadership- just ask the Germans and Japanese.

No, I want Bill back. Unprecedented prosperity, balanced budgets, and
oral sex. Now THAT'S living.
