Large SUV's are great for bad drivers. It will lessen the likelihood of
being fatally injured WHEN you get in an accident.

I used my '89 Horizon as an SUV. True story: I put 4 6x6 16' long timbers on
the roof racks. Weighed 500 pounds. Racks were rated for 100 pounds max.
Let's see you do that with your precious Hummer that you bought with the
inheritance money mommy and daddy left you with.

Real men don't drive SUV's.

Yes, I criticize dithering that doesn't come from science. Consider yourself
so criticized.

Provide proof. remember, the UN destroyed weapons after the GW I.

OK, you had your baby teeth. Prove you lost them, or we must assume you still
have them.

>Where are they? Well hidden, he had twelve years to do so,


Bush claimed there were an imminent threat to us. That means out, ready to
use, not hidden. Powell showed the UN pictures of where they allegedly were.

So they weren't ready to be used, an imminent threat to us?

The facts are in the IPCC report, the National Academy of Sciences report.
But you'd have to read to read them, not just cut and paste from your usual

Priceless! Notice not only that the death-trap driving idiot overloaded the
feeble suspension on the tin can Jetta, but he appears to have tried to
restrain the load with twine! At least when the idiot's entire load gets
dumped on the highway, those in suvs who hit it will have a chance to
survive. Frankly, it's morons like this who vote for Democrats and believe
in greenhouse gasses!

Wrong. GOP, 1993.

Hip deep. Maybe if you stopped listenen to your drug-addled pal on
the radio, you might have a clue.

Enlighten us - when did Clark say this? Dean? Kerry? Edwards?

I guess when you don't have any real argument, you either call names
or just make **** up.

> But, if they gained power in the process, what

Truman? Nope.

Carter? LOL. Nope.

Clinton? Only for those folks who want to pin 9/11 on him. Yeah,
those terrorist-hating GOPers really put the screws to Hezbollah in
'83. Or to Libya in '86 ('88??) Kuwait '91? Yeah, if those cowards
would have just done the job right the first time, none of it would
have happened.

Yeah, that "New Frontier" and all that man on the moon stuff was just
a bunch of crap. I getcha. Died under a GOP admin, too.

But really, the GOP hasn't even had a new idea since Lincoln.

LOL. Yeah, that GOP sure is altruistic. You right-wingers crack me
up.

And the Shrub ain't it. Real leaders know that charging into the guns
isn't leadership unless you can get others to follow. Following one's
convictions doesn't imply that the convictions are based on fact or
are in any way moral. Remember that Bin Laden was following his
convictions, too...

Any monkey in a Brooks Brothers suit could have done the right thing
after 9/11. It really was a no-brainer - just the perfect speed for
this president.

Prove you have more intelligence than a dead goose, you csn't do it. The
facts are there for you to read, do so. Better yet, get your students to
explain it to you. In a battle of wits, you're not only unarmed, you're
braidnead and ready for buriel. I've wasted enough time on you, but yes,
until they are proven destroyed, which even the UN said they had NOT been,.
(You need to read the news once in awhile Lloyd) then it must be assumed
they still exist and are an imminent threat to US and World security.

Irrelevant. It was up to Saddam, as per the UN resolution which every nation
signed, to prove he had indeed destroyed them. He failed to do so, no
further justification is required.

I'll cut to the chase, my well-indoctrinated leftist, I used to be a liberal
Democrat until the lies & hypocrisy became too much to ignore. I register as
an independent and in '00 I voted for Nader. Given the crap the Democrats
are putting up as leaders, I'll vote for Bush this time for sure.
