LawTalkers - Waiting for Fitzgerald

When I said you were not listening, I meant to Bush in the debates.

The focus group people said Kerry was very eloquent but they don't remember what he said. They said they liked Bush's message which was - things are working, stay the course to give them time to fully work out. Most got that message.

I didn't get the message. My response would have been a lot more complicated. I heard a lot of what Kerry said and I had trouble following W. a lot. Kerry said we weren't prepared for the peace, the deficits are out of control, etc. But clearly I am not your average American. Some how I got what they missed. That is why I have to watch focus groups to understand what happened.

So Bush blew sunshine up their asses and they liked it? This country is fucked up.

I can't watch this shit from either side. People are too disingenuous. It's not my thing. Kind of like I can't pretend that some guy I'm with is the first and only guy to bring out my freaky side, even though that would feed his ego and thereby make him like and value me more.

Maybe I could try it as an experiment, though.

The tragedy is, a year later that message is looking a lot different. Bush was able to sell the point that the job could be finished, if we stayed the course. Increasing, the American people are starting to doubt that. I think the result in Nov. 2005 would have been different than in 2004 - and I think Nov. 2006 will be different too.

Maybe. But in political time the 2006 election is a million years away. All we can say for sure is that no one really has a clue what the political climate will be like in 2006.

Let's ease up on the 70s. All can be forgiven because the music was good. The eightys is when we reached our cultural nadir. Flock of Seagulls, Boy George, Wham, Duran Duran, Motely Crue - if it weren't for U2 the whole decade would have been a loss. If Kurt Cobain had not come around, the whole rest of twentieth century might have been lost to that crap.

Kerry - with friends like these who need enemies?

Kerry went down to Nicaragua to make nice with Daniel Ortega. He said he was a guy we could work with. I know Penske is going to kill when I say this, but Kerry is the last Senator I would want as president. Yes, I said it. The worst of the 100.

My only quibble is that at this point you know Kerry is irrelevant. He has been soundly rejected by the American electorate and he is no Nixon (i.e. no comeback is happening here).

With that in mind, you need to be worried about someone else.....

Ps: Spank, I posted another relevant pictorial on the Adult Board related to the above.

Another vote for Alito

Ann Coulter approves:

It was going to be Fitzmas Day! (Which is much like Christmas except instead of having her baby in a manger, the woman has a late-term abortion.)......With the Democrats still reeling from Friday's sad news, Bush gave them a right-hook by nominating the stunningly qualified Judge Sam Alito on Monday.

typical lib hypocrate

PORCINE provocateur Michael Moore likes to portray himself as a working-class man of the people, but a new book exposes him as a "corporate criminal, environmental menace and racist union-buster."

this seems about right, npi.

United Methodist Church

It's bizarre that an avowed lesbian priest getting defrocked by the Methodist church is a news story. dallas article

Don't most people think of the United Methodist Church as fairly redneck?

Dissent. REM was the band of that decade.
