Has the Schiavo case Become a Political Football?

parados--

I had responded as I considered warranted. See above.

Do desist from re-questioning me. You never pay attenion to my responses anyway.

I really have to say you are like sand in the vagina. One could exult in the bliss of a perfect summer's day at the beach, have a couple beer, get a sexy tan...and enjoy the company of friends. Utter bliss. But that damn sand that worked it way into your bathing suit bottoms has grated and grated, and essentially with its incessant, gratuitous "me! me!" irritation has negated all the good from the day, leaving you in single minded pursuit to rid yourself of said irritant.

Would you kindly remove yourself from my vagina?

Lash,

I read your answer quite well, thank you. You are the one that claimed the democratic "MAINSTREAM is nuts" You didn't give us any example of how you think they are. I tried to be helpful by showing you how to make it easy to read. (I don't think Frist or Delay are nuts, a little nutty at time perhaps. I was just using them as examples so we could do a side by side comparison.)

Sorry to hear your body parts are chafing. You are the one that decided to go to the beach, take your swim suit off, and bury yourself. Don't blame the sand when you brought it on yourself by your own actions. :wink:

Holy crap!

I agree Tico. It was a lovely visual that Lash used. I didn't want to be the first to make note of it considering how close I was.

Well, I should have put the laughing smiley after the shocked smiley.

A shocking visual ... but it made me laugh.

...<mutter>....damn sand...

<giggle>

Lash, of all the consevatives on a2k, you are the only one whom I wish would wake up and become a liberal.

Vaginas aside, what about you and Deb having another fight? Both of you are world class bitches (meant in the most complimentary way). Your fights are the only things that keep me coming back to political threads and what I consider, mostly, blathering idiocy.

Jeeesh, Diane, that's pretty harsh for a nun. LOL

Diane--

You don't know the energy I expend in trying to beat that bunny down. Currently, our most recent set-to has been pre-empted by a locked thread. I'm sure we'll get back to it.

They usually lock them when I'm winning.

<hee>

In her defense, she is a nun gone bad.

Politicians take themselves too darned seriously. I mean, come on - and? Anyone who gets fussy about a playful gag like that, let alone going as far as covering the statue of justice up over it, really just takes himself too seriously and should get a little less uptight..

Anyway, after that little to-and-fro between Parados and Lash there, I'm gladly reassured that Lash apparently doesnt really think the Democratic mainstream is nuts - unless something more is still said on that. Rhetorical (and dare I say slightly tiresome) metaphorics it all is, still.

Now whether the mainstream here is nuts, that question has now once again wholly been eh, resurrected.

Perhaps if that other thread is opened again, someone else might gratefully adopt that most colourful of metaphors there...

No, I do think the Dem mainstream is nuts.

I guess I'd better bring my reasons.

Tally-ho!

IMO, he is simply pandering to his brother's compatriots...............the wacko radical right-to-lifers.

I would not vote for him if he ran for dogcatcher.........well, maybe dogcatcher!

Phoenix, Knowing how radical he is as gov, I wouldn't trust him in any government job. He belongs in prison, but not as one of the guards.

c.i.- You are probably right. It was just my lame, humorous attempt at being droll! :wink:

Reason #1-- Hey. You have to start somewhere...

Crazy Cynthia McKinney and the nuts who elected her.


That Cynthia!

Excerpt--

All of us have voices in our heads, whispering insanities. Rep. Cynthia McKinney's problem is that she lets hers speak. She's the Christopher Walken character in Annie Hall, except when she's tempted to swerve into a car's oncoming headlights, she actually does it.

After all, she's not the first liberal to spin the fantasy that President Bush had advance knowledge of the Sept. 11 attacks, which McKinney insinuated last month during a radio interview with a Berkeley, Calif., station. The New Yorker's drama critic John Lahr admitted in Slate to a similar notion. And McKinney's colleague, Rep. Melvin Watt, D-N.C., told the Washington Post that "a number of people say it."

But McKinney, a Georgia Democrat, appears to be the first to take it seriously. After confessing his suspicion, Lahr attributed it to "paranoia." Watt hastily followed up his comment by saying, "I can't say that it would be a widely held view." McKinney, weeks after her statement, would say only, "A complete investigation might reveal" that "President Bush or members of his administration have personally profited from the attacks of 9-11."

It's not the first time McKinney's mouth has gotten her in trouble. In her 10 years in Congress, hardly a year has gone by when she didn't make news for an outlandish accusation or a wild conspiracy theory (ideally, as in this case, a combination of both). During a nasty 1996 congressional campaign with racial tension on both sides, she called supporters of her Republican opponent "holdovers from the Civil War days" and "a ragtag group of neo-Confederates." Never mind that her opponent was Jewish. And during the 2000 presidential campaign, she wrote that "Gore's Negro tolerance level has never been too high. I've never known him to have more than one black person around him at any given time." Never mind that Gore's campaign manager was black. (McKinney is not a particularly partisan finger-pointer?-there are enough delusions for both sides.)

So much more at link....

Just a quick reminder though that the contention you're defending is that the Democrats' "MAINSTREAM is nuts" ("their sensible members are a distinct minority").

If Georgia House Rep McKinney is the Democratic mainstream, does that mean that, say, Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn or South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint represent the Republican mainstream? Cause in that case I might have to change my mind about the Rep mainstream not being insane ...

No, nimh. I'm compiling. Hence the #1....

Here's #2.

A former Vice President...candidate for President--and the NOMINEE. He would be considered mainstream, eh?



Do you accept the diagnosis, or do I have to defend it?

An aside. I am having more fun than should be legal coming up with google statements to locate these sad head cases.

For Al-- It was...something like "Gore has gone off the deep end"... "McKinney is nuts"... <rubs hands together, anticipating next ten or twelve...>
