snuffbox 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2004 I wonder if one day there will be a grand conspiracy theory that Bush knew that 9-11 was going to happen, ala FDR knowing about Pearl Harbor in advance... actually Im sure the theory is already out there and I just havent cared to check it out...

Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2004 Well, in 1996 we didn't have every idiot with broadband in his home and a video editing program. I'm sure if the internet was as widespread and accessable. And hey, even on today's internet, look hard enough through Google and you'll find the wacko you're looking for. And guess what can be found on that site, hmm? Or another... ...Or another. I always ger a kick out of that one picture with Al Gore taking money from a Tibetan monk.

Guest thebigjig Report post Posted March 6, 2004 Only the most insane of liberals compare him to Hitler, and as I've mentioned before, it's ridiculous and stupid However, Clinton was labeled a communist on many occassions... and I honestly dont see how you can compare the hatred between the two presidents, seeing the Republicans were out to get Clinton since day one of his campaign, and couldnt STAND seeing him as successful... they attacked him from every angle, and in the end, he won, and the republicans went down in flames... until 2000 at least Anyone remember when congressman Dan Burton called Clinton a "scumbag" ??

snuffbox 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 Bill Clinton's election wins over Bush 1 and Dole were without controversy. Bush got off to a shaky start because of the popular vote problems on the left. Dems still havent called for impeachment of Bush over a sex act. Vyce, you really should try to stop whining and blindly following the Republican spin.

Justice 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 Vyce, you really should try to stop whining and blindly following the Republican spin. Thinking for yourself on these issues is very important... Please SHUT UP! Seriously, you haven't ever established yourself as a "Free thinking Libertarian" that you say. You seem more of a Democratic tool than Terry McAuliffe.

Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 Powerplay: Hah. And the funny thing is that all the "free thinking libertarians" I know are Republican tools, including the most consevative guy I've ever seen. With all his spending I'm rather surprised myself... "My fellow Americans, I have raised our nation's debt by millions and ended a term by wiping my ass with the Constitution, putting me in company with a number of great Presidents. Please vote for four more years, so that hopefully, with enough pressue and legislation, you can vote for me a third time." Nah. Doesn't really work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justice 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 Well, I guess I'm a bit offended by his claim because I actually know a few very free-thinking libertarians (And since I'm probably voting Bush this November, I've been trying to weaken Kerry in their eyes) and this guy definitely doesn't strike me as being as intelligent or free-thinking as either of them.

They've called him and his administration much worse than "scumbag." Hell, I couldn't understand back when Burton said it what the big deal was. I can hear Sean Hannity now lol Since you brought him up I need to get this off my chest. Everytime I listen to his radio show I get more and more sick of him calling everyone on that show a "good friend." My good friend Mark Levine. My good friend Oliver North. My good friend Lanny Davis. My good friend Jim from Kansas. Grrr... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cerebus Report post Posted March 7, 2004 -Special Ed Hmm...aren't you being "sophomoric"? If your not a Republican...then you must be a Democrat.... I really enjoy the ann coulter logic... And because I DARE to think that Bush's commercial wasn't exploitive I was labled a Bush Partisan. Makes sense to me. Vyce, you really should try to stop whining and blindly following the Republican spin. Thinking for yourself on these issues is very important... Hilarious. Just take a look at this topic where I posted an article about McCain-Feingold, you decided not even to ATTEMPT to read the article and praise the bill to the fucking skies. Then, when I attempted to explain it to you, you seemed vaguely uninterested. I know you're a joke, you know you're a joke, everyone here knows you're a joke. Your posts are about as interesting, well thought out, and informative as a HHH speech (or failing that, a McAullife speech). I'm done trying to even bother responding to your posts until you bother to show even an ounce of intelligence or substance...duder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not like that's bad all the time (See: JotW, EricMM, JMA, Tyler, Wildbomb), but in your case, it is. Actually, JMA seems more to me to fit the "free-thinking yadayada" profile than the "I'm a Rep/Dem who calls himself a Small-L libertarian in order to look impartial" types I usually see flinging the word around. kkk: Since you brought him up I need to get this off my chest.
