New vote numbers have just been released. Reichert's lead has increased a little. So ... it's a roller coaster! Bob

The Superindendent said she was a poor role model in front of children and she embarrassed the school. I'd agree even if she mooned Bill Clinton. Civilized people generally hold their tongues and fingers in public.

The latest vote tally indicate that this case is still too close to call. Burner, the challenger, is filing for a re-count. They are predicting that it will be sometime MONDAY before all the votes are counted. Bob

As of 13 NOV 2006:

                         "Washington, 8th District: GOP Rep. Dave                   Reichert led Democrat Darcy Burner by about 3,500 votes, but many ballots in this heavily vote-by-mail state remained to be counted."

Actually, the votes need to be certified sometime in early December so them folks better start countin' faster...

As for givin' Bush the finger, who cares???

I'd give him the finger if I saw him... Most of the kids on the bus probably would have too if only they knew he was approachin'...

Bobert:

I don't see what you mean or what you beleive either because you avoid answering questions.

Do you believe that there was or is a possibility that the bus driver could have been sibject to "waterborded tonight in one of Bush's secret torture chambers"?

I just want to know if you believe in the things you say.

This might help, perhaps. It is a site that lists various "figures of speech". One of these being "hyperbole" - exaggerated or extravagant statement used to make a strong impression, but not intended to be taken literally.

Exactly what are you referring to now, Old Guy??? Do you do drugs??? There has to be some logical expaination of your condition that allows you to invent stuff that others habve said that haven't really been said by others???

Personally, I think it falls into the category of "personality disorder" but you may actaully be suffering from soemthing mush worse... Have you talked with a psychiatrist??? Maybe you should...

BTW, do you hear voices??? No, not the ones athat are voices but the one's that ain't...

And I'm not tryin' to be smug or samrt here... I just don't get how you can take something that someone says and distort is so badly into something you wished they'd said??? Know what I mean???

No, you prolly don't have a clue...

Better to be fired for giving Dubya the finger than to be fingered for setting fire to him.

I think the latter will land you in Gitmo, without a trace.

Bobert:

You said "the bus driver is lucky not to be waterborded tonight in one of Bush's secret torture chambers"

And I asked you:

"Do you believe that there was or is a possibility that the bus driver could have been subject to "waterborded tonight in one of Bush's secret torture chambers"?"

To which you did not answer.

I am trying to discern if you are sincere with your allusions or are you being facetious and disingenuous.

It is not beyond possibility, but I think Bober was exagerrating for humorous effect, a rhetorical technique which most adults have learned to recognize by the time they get out of highschool.

Most can recognize it by the time they get out of GRADE school.

What intrigues me is why otherwise intelligent folks can't seem to recognize that interacting with this moron is the equivalent of pounding salt down a rat hole.

What it tells me is that Crybaby Liberals will post something that they know to be untrue in order to support their position.

This is facetiousness and it points out their disengenuity. When you confront them with it they try to laugh it off as being funny and proceed with personal putdowns.

What kind of "freedom of expression" gives anyone the right to be so rude to another person. It is not GWB who is diminished by this boorish behavior it is the person who directed it toward him. Can we not be civil in our disagreements or is it now acceptable to be boorish because "we got rights". How sad that attitude is.

One cannot knowingly make a joke about something and at the same time be disingeuous, I think -- joking requires knowing participation.

I'm a bit puzzled by this "crybaby" tag. Who's doing the crying? Who's sorry now? in fact.
