Yes, its ages old demagogy.
What the demagogs don't dare discuss is how stealing what others earn helps
the children earn something while benefiting from what they earn when they grow up.
From the comments:
Obama was just getting his casualty figures from the Lancet study of the tornado damage.

Definitely a reading problem. It's been posted twice, once by me and once by Tico. For my answer step back about 8 posts.
Like I said I don't go back to read posts very often. I don't have the time to spend on this site as others do so I'll miss some previous posts.
What do folks think might be the chances that someone like Russert might, in the inevitable debates after nominations are settled, ask a relevant question related to this matter here?

Bush and Cheney shall be replaced for that and
other reasons.
Bush has given McCain a strong endorsement. I wonder whether that is the kiss of death.
The Democrat party aught to pay for holding the Florida and Michigan delegate primaries--that were cancelled by the party--to prevent Barack and Hillary from defeating each other over what to do about Florida and Michigan delegates.
On the other hand, it might be fun to watch Barack and Hillary defeat each other.
McCain is far from qualifying as a Dem. He is a huge hawk, anti-choice, anti-gays, pro-tax cuts for the wealthy, etc. It is hard to believe that Kerry considered him as a possible running mate.

Yes they were but you have the wrong parties that did the canceling; such a little detail but it was the republican florida legislature that did it. You're not keeping your nose up Ican.

But it was the DNC that warned the dem party in Fl what would happen if they moved their primary, and Fl did it anyway.

WRONG! The Democrat Party decided not to count the Florida and Michigan PRIMARY votes if Florida and Michigan decided not to conform to the Party's schedule.
HAPPY LANDING!
Please note Ican, the florida legislature is republican.
The Florida legislature is not governed by either the DNC or the RNC, nor is it beholden to either, nor should it be. The Florida legislature presumably has the constitutional authority to set the primary where it wants it. (In New Mexico the date of the primary is constitutionally ordered and the legislature has no choice; however, the state Democrats elected to hold a caucus process prior to the primary and presumably the DNC honored the results of that.)
In any case, the DNC could have opted to bow to the will of Florida's elected governing authority or hold their own caucus later, but it did not. The RNC did.
That is not the fault of the Republicans.

Florida Legislature on Thursday moved the state's primary up to Jan. 29, ignoring the threat of sanctions from the national Republican and Democratic parties.

I'm pretty sure that american citizens want more wars fought and the sooner the better. Or, I'm sure that if american citizens don't want more wars fought, then they should be ignored.
Quote:Via Justin Logan, Philip Weiss attends a Middle East Forum event with former Cheney aide David Wurmser:
Fortunately, Wurmser's not the only person who thinks Bush has gotten a little soft since 2006 or so. John Bolton, since leaving office, has criticized Bush along Wurmserish lines for not starting enough new wars. He's also confident that John McCain can get the job done, so a McCain administration should be great.
