Why are you posting that on this thread?

Why don't you start you own thread called, "Bush ... What a Pathetic Man"? I'm sure you'd have lots of friends join you there.

Why don't you get off this whining little crusade of yours? Do we not seen you on every thread possible? Such a hypocrite!

[not that's there's anything wrong with you attending any ole thread you want]

If it ain't obvious to you, Tico, then you're even more of a lost cause than many think. This pathetic nature has caused virtually all of the aftermath, which sure as hell hasn't been pretty.

Everything that this crew has been involved in has been one monumental failure after another. What better place to discuss the aftermath and the causes for it.

Xingu has hit on one very important cause. Way too small a man for too big a job.

What is truly pathetic is your blind devotion to the lies, the dishonesty, the dismal lack of success of any of the campaign promises.

Delusion run rampant!

Cut and run? I highly doubt that.

Do you understand the term "slogan"?

"Cut and run" is a slogan. "Stay the course" is a slogan. They are both, in this case, products of the RNC public relations operations.

Do you suppose you might provide even a single instance where I've used such a PR slogan?

No, but I see no difference between those utilized by a political party to make a point and those you make up to make a point.

Tucker to Evangelicals: Chumps

Here's what Tucker Carlson had to say on this weekend's Chris Matthews Show:

CARLSON: It goes deeper than that though. The deep truth is that the elites in the Republican Party have pure contempt for the evangelicals who put their party in power. Everybody in...

MATTHEWS: How do you know that? How do you know that?

CARLSON: Because I know them. Because I grew up with them. Because I live with them. They live on my street. Because I live in Washington, and I know that everybody in our world has contempt for the evangelicals. And the evangelicals know that, and they're beginning to learn that their own leaders sort of look askance at them and don't share their values.

MATTHEWS: So this gay marriage issue and other issues related to the gay lifestyle are simply tools to get elected?

CARLSON: That's exactly right. It's pandering to the base in the most cynical way, and the base is beginning to figure it out.

How come the local yokels haven't figured out how badly they've been played?

How come that PoS Tucker wasn't honest enough to say this years ago? Talk about major league pandering.

If you do not, then you misunderstand/misuse the term.

And, though it would be less than a surprise, your valuation of independance of mind (thinking for yourself rather than letting others' simplistic cliches do the task for you) is a tad unambitious.

slogan
1. a distinctive cry, phrase, or motto of any party, group, manufacturer, or person; catchword or catch phrase.
2. a war cry or gathering cry, as formerly used among the Scottish clans.

Why do the libs insist on showing up here? They cannot help themselves. Like Clinton, it's always about them.

They are all still pissed that Bill's little oral office tryst became public knowledge that they insist on bashing the right at every opportunity, even false ones.

Too bad soldiers aren't really allowed to talk about the war with the media. From what I've heard first and secondhand, the media distortion is out of control.

Oh I see. Well I'll admit a well-placed and accurate cliche is rather appealing and saves a lot of words when the alternative is the self-proclaimed far superior expoundings of self-important critics.

I'd still rather be cliched than a popinjay. Smile

Right.

Baker told Texas Monthly Magazine recently ...

Quote:

"...the worst thing in the world we could do would be to pick up our marbles and go home,"

Like that better?

Iraq for sale?
Robert Greenwald's latest film, "Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers," has just been released, triggering a mix of praise, outrage and grave concern among concerned Americans across all political and cultural boundaries.

"Iraq for Sale" is a tale of unspeakable greed and fraud, misery and betrayal, and brazen waste of public tax dollars for private enrichment. The film reveals in compelling detail the depth of control corporate war profiteers exert over our elected representatives and the danger these alliances have created for soldiers and innocent civilians.

This is a story you won't hear or read in America's mainstream, corporate-sponsored media.

"Iraq for Sale" . . .

Contains interviews with soldiers, former private contractor workers, widows and children whose lives have been devastated as a result of profiteering in the reconstruction of Iraq.

Exposes the price gouging and exorbitant compensation levels of not just Halliburton and its subsidiary, KBR, but also companies like CACI International and Blackwater Security Consulting.

Reveals the longtime personal connections between executives of these corporations and members of the current administration.

Details the stories of truck drivers promised they would be kept out of harm's way, only to be forced to drive into battle zones unprotected.

Takes viewers inside the story of Halliburton's contract for millions of dollars to purify water -- and how our troops still do not have clean water for things as basic as brushing their teeth or making coffee.
In the true spirit of grassroots support, "Iraq for Sale" was funded entirely outside corporate America. More than 3,000 people donated $367,892 to help Greenwald and Brave New Films produce and distribute this documentary.

"Iraq for Sale" is available now on DVD for only $12.95.

This is a film every American should see.

Sincerely,

Craig Brown

Hmmm. Where does one find the greatest collection of anti-American news distortion, rants, screeds, and dishonesty? Salon? Daily Kos? Or Common Dreams? It is a puzzlement. That arises out of my personal perception of course.

They've played you wingnuts like a fiddle, Tico. And still you stroke one another's fragile egos, none of you able to face up to the truth.

Read or watch it all, Tico. I hope your old religious underwear can handle it. Better change to a Depends.
