Thanks, doc. That just confirmed my point: He can't handle rebuttal. If he holds all these liberal positions, as he's claimed, why does he hate himself so much?

The entire way George W. Bush is approaching fiscal management of this country is an impending disaster. Borrowing for your day-to-day expenses is a recipe for disaster, I agree. Borrowing for long-term infrastructure items, like roads, bridges, hospitals & schools, is fine. Ronald Reagan got

If the government doesn't borrow money, it doesn't pay interest on those bonds, and if it doesn't pay interest on those "guaranteed obligations" there is no income for the millions of people that rely on it, right? So do you put your credit card bill on another credit card? Because that is basically wha

Two points: 1 - Attacking 'liberals' is not a moderate activity. Consider a new screen name. 2 - By you own admission you hold numerous views that are considered 'liberal' (Pro-choice, gun control, etc). So does that mean you are criticizing yourself when you make these ad hominem attack posts?

He also posted a snippet of the article, and if you actually read it, you'd notice that the issue is with "Thou shalt not kill," and you should know that people were killed in WW2 too. It was a press conference transcript from whitehouse.gov, not an article. Words mean things. Buy a dictionary. <br

You're serious? You honestly don't have a freaking clue as to what I just said? Juxta, this thread began with a link to a transcript -- not an article. If you're asking me to defend somebody else's comments in this 'article,' that's not my job. I will not scrounge around in 80 responses for some unspeci

So I take it you haven't read the article or the responses by its defenders? You know, where they say that there's no exception to "Thou shalt not kill" and criticize Bush for making some? Um, could you be more cryptic , please? You response makes no sense whatsoever. I stand by my post.

According to everybody here who believes that it is wrong to kill no matter the circumstances. Sorry dude, you've got it backwards. The Ten Commandments (old testament) specifically ruled out killing. Christ (new testament) is the one who specifically ruled out vengeance, and instead radically recommend

If no-fly was working , then why were American aircraft being shoot at? Um, you realize that 'no-fly zone' means 'no Iraqi aircraft can fly here', right? Right? No Iraqi aircraft flying in no-fly zone = success Bonus question: Do you even know WHY the UN made no-fly zones? I do. <b

thats just it, the democrats were crying foul and no way well before any proposal was put forth.. Uh huh. As they should be. As is the AARP and a group of GOP moderates. Repeat: Borrowing trillions now to avoid bankruptcy 35 years from now is not conservative. It's radical.

No,it is a new idea. As you admit you have not heard the whole plan yet, listen. If you still dont like it, then condemn it, Dont dismiss it out of hand. BTW, it was proposed by Daniel Moynihan. Not a Bush syncophant. If Sen Moynihan is really the author, it can't be that new. He has been dead a

So you agree with Bush's changes to SS? Creating a multi-trillion dollar hole in the SS fund to divert $$ to the stock market? No thanks. Not that GWB has issued his plan yet -- or explained how he'll cover that gap. And again: Borrowing trillions now to avoid bankruptcy 35 years fro

To clarify--they all work for the President. All branches of the administration view the President as their ultimate boss. So yes, if DOJ makes a huge mistake, it's going to reflect on the whole Administration--and that includes the President. Well said. Exactly right. Plus I'd note this administration'
