Uncle Jerque, would it be TOO hard to just be polite?

There you go again, NAMECALLING and lecturing others on.... "Politeness"?

All the conservatives must be reading people like you and thinking, "Please stop being on my side!"

Yeah, he said almost the same exact thing to me.

1. It is not a "spy plane" and it drives me nuts when the press has been calling it such. If they can't tell the difference between spying and surveillance, they should get jobs at the local Cinemaplex or something.

What?

2. The final non-apologetic apology that secured the release of our boys and girl was a masterful piece of diplomatic baloney. Three cheers to whoever in the Bush administration thought it up.

HUH?

3. I'm not sure it could have been done TOO much earlier. The whole thing needed to cool off a bit, and the Chinese needed to calm down enough to see exactly what they stood to lose (hint: where does the lion's share of dollars fleeing the USA go? hint2: it isn't Europe) before they could accept the non-apologetic apology without feeling they were losing face.

Unbelievable.

4. What all this has to do with Bush, however, is beyond me. None of this has his handwriting. Sure, he put in place a competent State Department. But how much of that was Daddy's doing? The world will never know. Just being who he is, Bush Lite will never really get credit for stuff he deserves credit for. You may say it's not fair; I say he made his bed and must lie in it.

Of course he will, it happened under his watch. He put in place a competent everything.

5. Was the tail wagging the dog? Well, it's true Bush has been doing the best he can, in the short time he's had, to put the thumbscrews on the environmentalists. He really didn't need a crisis like this to do it, though. Who is standing up to him at home? The democrats are rolling over and playing lame.

You don't suppose he "very sorried" the democRATs too, do you?

If we have any wild space left in this country in 4 years, it certainly won't be because Bush hasn't tried to (allow his Corporate sponsors to) rape, pave, or drill it.

Looks like most of the raping and drilling in the last eight years has been in the White House. I think if you check, most of the paving can be found in the BLUE AREAS of the 2000 election map!!!

There's my 2 bits' worth. Flame away.

What are you doing agreeing with us? Trying to "Spaw" us? Maybe you should re-think this one.
