[quote]Could it be you just don't know Dick?[/quote] based on the non-responses received so far, yall seem somewhat reluctant to offer an opinion. i'm wondering now if that's because the bush campaign jammed dick down your throat for 8 years and you either really miss it badly or??

while i'm sure evading or ignoring my questions by wandering off-topic to pose your own is way more fun than the alternative, it serves neither of us well while more intensely piquing my curiosity. perhaps i'm at fault here. i'll readily admit to overestimating my readership (something i do innately much to the chagrin of clients who've convinced themselves that their target markets consist almost entirely of disconnected morons who are either illiterate or bur

[quote]Cheney doesn't represent the all of conservatives[/quote] it's extremely rare for one person to represent all of anything except, perhaps, an organization he or she founded and controls completely. ask me, cheney is just one more faux conservative opportunist exploiting a huge group of people who've been bamboozled--whether by others or themselves--into something identical to conservatives from the notorious bizarro planet of superman comic fame. &nb

[quote]A little early to start eulogizing Cheney.... tacky stuff buddy... real tacky.[/quote] i come not to bury cheney but to engage those who praise him. the evil that men do lives after them. the good is oft interred with their bones. why let it be so with cheney? hath scooter said he was ambitious? (scooter is an honorable man--for a convict-- so are they all; all honorable men.)

[quote]Was senator Byrd a good liberal? West Virginia was at the bottom or near the bottom of wealth and income of States during his entire long term. Does that make a liberal good? Even better, Al Gore is a good liberal! Does Al Gore qualify as an outstanding liberal...an outstanding democrat...and human being? If so, why? As for Cheney, I agree with Nitro. I would also add that I didn't agree with everything that Bush or he did.[/quote] so, to summarize, you'

[quote]The organisation that determined itself to be above the law was the party that didn't want the Christians to be heard or the Christians?[/quote] if you read the article contained in my response #24 (i think--at the bottom of the first page of this thread in any event), you'd already know there was no party in this case who "didn't want the christians to be heard" and there'd be no need for me to post it again here: "Festival organizer Fay Beyd

[quote]did I mention Cheney drives liberals nuts, which is enough for anyone to like him.[/quote] that's the conservative acid test these days? good thing all the old school authentic practitioners passed before that became the standard. it goes a long way to explain sarah palin's poll numbers and how boehner made it to the top (although, in his case, ya gotta wonder if flaunting liberal warnings about using sun screen is gonna seem like such a good idea when he

[quote]it's many many steps.[/quote] pretty much as many as are required to complete a marathon in this case. it's way worse than ridiculous to suggest some sort of correlation between an organization that arrogantly determines itself to be above the law, then openly defies authorities to take action against them AND law-abiding victims persecuted for no legal reason by totalitarian dictatorships. it's disgusting and dishonorable. invert the equation to fin

[quote]o boring, bored as I am, I'm too bored to bother.[/quote] that's a relief. this one took me 9.5 hours from concept to completion--mostly cuz i kept nodding off (a distinctly different state than 'nodding out') and i was just gonna browse back by this diagnose yourself site where i'd been earlier running a battery of tests on myself and already ruled out everything BUT iron deficiency anemia (also known by its scientific name: 'tired blood'), sleeping sickness or narcole

again last week we had to confront the approaching inevitability of a future with no dick. were dick cheney able to devise a workaround for evading mortality, i'm positive he'd keep kickin it here til the galaxy's final light was extinguished. absent that, he--like each of us--continues moving forward into the past. immediately after he's no longer around, we'll find ourselves amidst an emotional maelstrom far more intense than last week's. overwhelmed by stu

[quote]Strom Thurmond. And cut his lionizers all the slack cut Trent Lott.[/quote] gotta love a guy who--unlike such weak sisters as stennis, eastland, wallace and even de klerk--knew you can't reconstruct those who had never been constructed in the first place. fact is, while he never came out and said it publicly, we all know he really did love at least one black resident of south carolina. which is why next time i'm over to the white citizen's council lodgehouse, i

[quote]So for expediency, you have abrogated rights for safety, the same thing that Germans did in 1933. [/quote] america's most recent and egregious abrogations of liberty in favor of security are the so-called 'homeland security' and 'patriot' acts. regarding the latter, their misleading and meaningless titles--nothing at all even vaguely patriotic there--couldn't be more evocative of that sort of totalitarian doublespeak orwell so artfully skewered. homeland security is

[quote]Unsurprisingly, the WV SecState (D) has found a way to let the Guvnuh (D) appoint someone, even though the law stipulates a special election be held in this circumstance. So, the good people of WV will have the dubious privilege of electing two Senators in November 2012, in separate elections, one 'regular' and one 'special', with the 'special Senator' serving out the remaining 5 weeks of the vacated term since filled by an appointee.[/quote] not to worry, someone need

[quote]Its amazing to see liberals and people of color defending a high ranking member of the Ku Klux Klan. I can't imagine how anyone could gloss over his Klansman past and his opposition to any advances in civil rights.
