Second, the democrats have only 51 votes on a good day.


So bushie, let me ask you a simple math question... one even the dumbest of 5th graders could answer correctly...

Is 51 greater than 60 or 67?

so if you want to lay blame on Congress for not accomplishing anything, be sure you lay that blame right where it belongs...

at the feet of the obstructionist republicans...

and the best way to do that is to vote them out of office this November... then, if the veto proof Democratic Congress can't accomplish anything, I'll join you in lambasting them.

Until then though...

BLAME THE OBSTRUCTIONIST REPUBLICANS!
And the Democrats have used it when the Republicans were barely in control. So, what's your point? Turn about is fair play.

NEWSFLASH: PROPAGANDA IS NOT ILLEGAL! (This of course setting aside your abuse of the word.)

The Bush Administration has used weapons grade propaganda on the American people with fantastic results. That's actually been documented.
Has it now? Then you'll have no problem documenting it here; I couldn’t help but to notice that while you had the perfect opportunity to do so, you opted to avoid it; of course when you fail to do so, we'll just chalk it up to conclusive proof that you can't and conclude your propaganda here is withdrawn.

Quote:
No one has accomplished anything approaching the level of success Bush has had using propaganda on the American people. The Administration still does it and still does it well.
You're grossly misinformed. You've clearly no knowledge of the Wilson, TR or the Roosevelt cousins. No one does propaganda like the fascists. If you want to see propaganda, just take a look at the myth machine B. Hussein Obama is running. It's very comparable to the level of propaganda used by Osama B. Laden and Hussein, the former socialist dictator of Iraq, himself.

Pelosi is right. He has dropped the ball and he went to all that trouble to gain the White House for what?

Why do you want to mix Tequila (good) with Pelosi (bad). It would (*)(*)(*)(*) up a really good drunken evening.

A fine baseless opinion. Have you checked the value of a baseless opinion these days? MAN! They are worthless.

Now I think that's because there are so many of them. Supply and demand and all. Like oil, when there's less it cost more and when there's more it cost less.

The good news is that the 'well founded' opinion, being a rare commodity remains quite valuable, except where such doesn't work, as they require a fair amount of thought and that is just so very difficult for some of us.

So anywho, I saw this opinion, noticed the absence of a sound basis and was wondering; is there any chance you could look around and see if you can spot its base? While its unlikely that it will ever be worth much, a solid foundation couldn't hurt and it might even teach us something.

I have no use for Pelosi after she took impeachment of this scum filled sick joke of a president off the table, but you do have to give George Worthless Bush some credit for getting in 8 full years of being the most corrupt, inept, politicized, illeagal, secretive, dishonest, destructive, spiteful, uncaring, unpopular, hate filled, unAmerican agenda driven administartion ever. Nobody has ever done it so completely, and had so many idiots still willing to back him as America slides down the toilet's flush pipes.
A vote for McCave gives this W creep a huge 2 thumbs up for his most filthy actions and puts the final nail in this country's coffin.

You just can't hide a public eduation.

I didn't quote Pelosi sir, I stated her position by paraphrasing that position.

I like to give back where I can, so towards that end, I offer Webster's definition of "paraphrase."

Main Entry:1paraphrase
Function:noun
Etymology:Middle French, from Latin paraphrasis, from Greek, from paraphrazein to paraphrase, from para- + phrazein to point out
Date:1548

1 : a restatement of a text, passage, or work giving the meaning in another form

Or, you could have just said "I hate George Bush." Would'a saved you a lot of time.
