OT, but a nice summary for Mark and other Bush apologists

"Ted Bennett" wrote in message ... http://www.bushflash.com/thanks.html Good stuff. You wonder why its difficult to take these people seriously. You use slide shows put to music by anti Bush fanatics as your intellectual ammunition. Anybody who thinks that this is serious news reporting, or is in any way, shape or form "intellectual ammunition" is probably one of the terminally stupid. Some of the facts and figures presented might have weight, but that's something different. I don't suppose anyone's got a refutation for those? Mere ad hominem commentary against the producers doesn't have much rebuttal weight. -- Jonesy |

Myself, I prefer respectable news and opinion sources from across spectrum, but at least you have so much fun. Your selective quotes show buzzflash using sarcasm combined with hyperbole to make their point, probably worth thinking about, that much of the GOP base has been duped into voting against their own interests in favor of those of the ultrawealthy that benefit from current GOP policies. (When the daughters of the ultrawealthy need abortions, they will simply go on "vacation" to the appropriate European country.) You, on the other hand, used sarcasm combined with the much more scholarly form of logic, called "quoting out of context", to make your point, which, I guess, is that you don't like theirs. JP |

I agree - but we'll need to be there long enough for a reasonable amount of stability to set in. Which may be years. Hopefully not, hopefully some reasonably stable democratic-type government (more likely a parliamentary government) can be set up and be functional, although I think June 30th is a date that only crack smokers would see as feasible. Even though it was a horrible miscalculation on the part of Bushco, it's done and now the cleanup has to happen. |

Actually, its probably Bob Hope or something, so you can leave that one alone. (although Sinatra did have a version). |
