  1. Gordon Eubanks, May 1993, you can now modify your argument accordingly
  2. NoCalMike, you forgot the time that Bush said that Lay was a supporter of Ann Richards
  3. probably. Outside of Hollywood, most jobs with 'director' in the name are a bit cushy I'd imagine he did it more for the Ex-Im-ness than for the 'working for Bush'. Either that, or he really loves that check. Not a big fan of forgiveness, are you? Although I'm not too sure how accepting an appointment is that much help. Granted, due to my lack of ESP, I am unable to tell you more about why Bush and Cleland did all that. And if I had ESP, I would use it to get women. That's an off-topic note. Kerrey replaced Cleland too. You may know a bit about the Ex-Im, but who would Cleland be working for? Another question: It sounds like Cleland would say that, but do you have a source to back that up? just curious Same goes with a lot of these retired politicans who get director jobs from various corporations. granted, I'm not totally sure on the timeline, but maybe Ex-Im was less frustrating to him than being on the 9/11 commission. He came to the ranch to give the letter to Bush. Was the President too busy to come out? I'd imagine in Texas in August, if somebody comes with a letter for you, you come out, and then maybe you invite him to come in the ranch. Something to show hospitality. Instead we get this: There's no way to deny it wasn't a bit of a publicity stunt. They announced it. And reporters don't usually hang out in that spot anyways. Politics is cheap sometimes. I'm sure that the first "photo-op" involved a politician. I'm sure Max will try Fed-Ex next time.
  4. you voted for the Ficus, didn't you?
  5. Does Article IV, Section 1 of the US Constitution have any comment on this matter?
  6. Granted, I don't think the initial mission of Reno at Waco was to invade the compound. I'm sure if that was Plan A, they could have probably done it quickly. Oh, i'm sure that would have went over well. That's due to minimal lawyer participation in the invasion
  7. Not only that, Cleland makes the job sound less cushy than the NRO has reported. http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:03A99...22+export&hl=en Those Ex-Im people have big egos. Misc. info: http://www.georgiatrend.com/site/page5966.html One more thing i've found is Cleland was on the 9/11 commission and either resigned due to his feelings that Bush was stonewalling the commission or to except the Ex-Im job. Either way, if Cleland stayed on the commission, i'm sure 'major head explosions' would have occured. So, the point you're making is that Max Cleland is an ingrate because Bush appointed him to be a bank director? I'm sure the opportunity of being a bank director is something that requires stringent loyalty. As for the money, none of us know what Cleland does with it. He could be using it for good things, something with a ray gun or nothing. As for Bush following though to offer a spot to Cleland. He's a uniter, remember?
  8. #1 - Hitler declared war on us #2 - led us into World War II, is there something the sender wants to say about Pearl Harbor? I guess the pacific part of WW2 doesn't count Truman started the Korean War? Well.. then again, the North Koreans claim that South Korea attacked first. US troops were in the Korean War though the UN. But, this guy goes on to complain about Clinton not getting UN consent. Seems like he wants to have it both ways. Bullshit. Read a history book. I'm pretty sure "went to war" is a bit exaggerated. And it involved NATO. such claims by the Sudanese are dubious Last I heard, they were still around in parts. Around enough that Mullah Omar hasn't been seen. Which is why we're on Orange alert. by "a terrorist", you mean "Saddam Hussein", who would be better described as a "tyrant" The "compare this to Democrats" listing appears to be done either with extreme spin, or extreme ignorance of history.
  9. Rick Shirley will be facing Dr. Max Anderson
  10. Correction JTTS. As we approached the enemy, there was a brief exchange of gunfire. Bob Dole took a grenade in hand, pulled the pin, and tossed it in the direction of the farmhouse. It wasn't a very good pitch (remember, Bob Dole was used to catching passes, not throwing them.) In the darkness, the grenade must have struck a tree and bounced off. It exploded nearby, sending a sliver of metal into Bob Dole's leg-the sort of injury the Army patched up with Mercurochrome and a Purple Heart. Ha Ha Ha.
  11. http://quote.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=1....8.2lI&refer=us This says it was Bradley Smith.
  12. Wouldn't the chairman of a group who could decide this issue want to not make statements like that in public?
  13. A speech which only mentions military service, over and over.. http://www.johnkerry.com/pressroom/speeche..._2004_0729.html Funny you fail to mention that long biopic about him that PRECEEDED it. Remember that gem? You know, the one that focused on Vietnam --- I'm not even sure if his Senatorial career got a mention. -=Mike So, in the scheme of things, the candidate's film matters more than his speech? Interesting..
  14. I hear those papers that the navy records were printed on wheren't in the boat with John Kerry either.

  17. It'll be interesting to see if Kerry (6'4") towers over Bush (5'11") when they debate each other. I missed the interview, and i'm sure it'll be replayed today though I know that when Kerry stood next to Dean in the debates, he looked like a monster... Monster? No. Tree? Yes. -=Mike I haven't heard anything about weight (in regard to Bush and Kerry) but it wouldn't surprise me if Kerry wasn't much heavier than Bush. You don't get the nickname "Lanky Yankee" for no reason.

  19. That's just rich. Also, appearantly Thurlow never read the citation of his own Bronze Star and wonder why it mentioned enemy fire. "Read? I ain't got time to read" - Larry Thurlow, Predator, 1987 (quote may be slightly inaccurate) Well, we'll see where this goes. *bites thumb at you* I check in on them from time to time. Well, i'm pretty sure on my quick check that there's stuff mentioning some news shows. They should use "Why don't you just call Fidel?" as a slogan though.
  20. Well, a prominent lawyer who was working for the Bush campaign. The Bennett who represented Clinton and Carlson was Bob Bennett. Here's Bob: Here's Bill: I don't think they're brothers. Just so you know. (Bill Bennett did write 'Death of Outrage: Bill Clinton and the Assault on American Ideals') Have I done anything to suggest I would be employed? Anyways, Mediamatters is mostly transcripts. I'd think there wouldn't be too many people working on the writing part of the pages. So, Kerry's supposed to prove his innocence? interesting concept there. The legal system should steal it.
  21. Who would he feud with? Would he be accompanied by the rest of GWAR? ok.. i'm out there
  22. Still haven't proven a lie. -=Mike One possible explanation http://www.heraldtribune.com/apps/pbcs.dll...NYT02/408200706 The unintentionally amusing part of this is the filler where these articles mention what Kerry's initials really are. Those writers would be screwed if John Kerry called himself "John Forbes Kerry". As a good will offering, i'm willing to accept that John O'Neill, Navy veteran, somehow didn't know that, instead of thinking there's something more sinister at hand. and I will file the following under "Coincidence": http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/n...n_bush_ads_dc_4 We'll see where this goes.
  23. Calvin Pickering with a triple. 3 games, 4 for 8, 3 HR, 1 triple, 11 RBI
  24. I checked and the response from the Kerry campaign is "Anything is possible" It would be quite the coup if it were true. The claim is that there's a journal entry from nine days after the first Purple Heart talking about how they hadn't been fired upon yet. "Anything is Possible" Strange how that went from "maybe" to "yes it happened like that". I'm sure the "tour of duty" thing is easily backed up in the primary debates, speeches, and such. And it's not a myth to rationalize this. Not at all. "As for the Dems growing spines, kudos to them. If only they'd work on the whole "attack the message and not the messenger" thing, they'd be peachy." Practice what you preach. It's all about interest group ratings! Yaay! (and distorting voting records) Yeah, trying to bust a corrupt bank that have accounts owned by terrorists (Abu Nidal), tyrants (Saddam Hussein) and drug lords is nothing. Not to mention the fact that he ended up going against quite a few people, especially when the investigation went into Clark Clifford's links. (Clifford being a Democrat and all) Not to mention the time he was caught in that crackhouse. Oh, that was the Dad from ALF. Nevermind
  25. Day one: one class was 19 minutes long. The other is made up of people older than I am. And Kung Pao Chicken sucked. I thought. So does driving in a downpour.
