Can anyone really vote for someone whose middle name is Husein? It'd be like voting for someone whose first name was adolf, Saddam or a last name like... dear god... Bush? speaking of which, whatever happened to Jebb running? He probably borrowed the family braid for a moment, and realized that wasn't a good idea??

There's a moral to all that... I'm just not sure what it is. He probably is maintaining that our economy is tanking because of Bill Clinton... sigh

"Nothing to do with irresponsible lenders selling irresponsible folks mortgages they didn't bother to read and so didn't realize couldn't afford?" There. Fixed it for ya, Doc.

JOM, your economic analysis, like all your comments, is stupefying. That's the sole reason for the state of the economy, is it? Nothing to do with a certain war the US is involved in? Nothing to do with the weak dollar? Nothing to do with irresponsible lenders selling folks mortgages they couldn't afford? 'Course not. Everything from the recession to your acne is the Democrats' fault.

Great, after everyone acknoledges the screwed up economy, Bush admits the economy is in trouble and steps up like he's going to fix it. Well, he broke it with the war causing oil prices to go through the roof. You'll note his big concern is that major corporations keep their tax cuts! geez

I love a good political joke, even when it's on Hillary. David Letterman just did one in tonight's monologue... Hillary Clinton on a campaign flight earlier today decided to pretend to be a stewardess on the P.A. system. Apparently she was so convincing, Bill hit on her!

I seem to remember a lot of denials that the economy was going sour. I seem to remember a lot of put-downs for saying it too. Now that even Bush has finally seen reality and has admitted it, what now?

Well, it's always nice to find myself on the same side of an argument as JOM... Ruvy, you of all people should understand that humans are mired in sin. Or are you blameless in God's eyes? Have you fulfulled the Law at all times? If so, then why do you remain under the punishment of Adam? Never mind that. Look around you. Do you notice many good people? Last I read, there were occasionally bad actions committed in the Middle East. Look inside you. What crime are you not capable of? There's a few things that are easier for me to picture myself doing, a few less so, but I wouldn't trust me as far as I can throw me. The two big ideas in Christianity are that man is fallen, and that man is savable. That second idea is the tough one.

Please clear up who you were talking to Lumpy. I've never tried to force my sexual preferences on anyone...

Do u mean sexual perversions like trying to force your version of sexuality on others. That's sort of like mind rape.

Jet...there is a big difference... there are those who would use the sheild of political correctness, to force people to accept their personal sexual perversions, while shouting down anyone whose opinion or religious beliefs differ from theirs...(MILITANT -Gays, Transexuals,Lesbians, etc.) JOM

my religion teaches that I'm a pervert and evil. I wouldn't believe a religion that said otherwise. Do you really understand what you have just written up there, Baronius? Are you honestly that arrogant to think that you are a pervert and evil? Is this what Christianity is based on: the arrogant assumption that everyone is a pervert and evil? Think about that for a minute. In fact, think about that for a lot longer than a minute. Don't condemn yourself without good reason. The Guy Upstairs might just choose to believe you.

Baronius: political critique becomes more accurate when it's driven by analysis rather than feelings How many times did I point out in the artiticle that this was an editorial/opinion Piece?

Jet, my religion teaches that I'm a pervert and evil. I wouldn't believe a religion that said otherwise. But whatever you believe, your political critique becomes more accurate when it's driven by analysis rather than feelings.

Then again Baronius, you haven't spent your life being labeled a pervert and evil. I cringe when I hear "Religious Right" I bristle...

Jet, that wasn't my point. That wasn't even the subject. I was commenting about how hard it must be to be a Paul supporter, that a political movement takes time. I cited two examples: one fairly controversial one, that the baby boom got credit for the civil rights movement, when most of the heavy lifting was already done by their parents' generation. The second example pointed out the ineffectiveness of the anti-abortion movement in the first years after Roe. But I used the words "religious right", and you and Dave promptly wetted yourselves. Any reference to them must be greeted with hostility, and a discussion of how evil they are. Pavlov would be impressed. I'm not.

Baronius, there is a big difference. There are those who believe deeply in God and the bible and want to see the world move towards those ideals. and there are those who would use the common man's fear of God, as an advantage towards power by convince those ignorant inocents that they speak for the almighty (Bush, Falwell, etc.) Unfortunately they're both using the title of "The religious right" so that it is often hard to tell them apart. Like a good box of facial tissue, there is the good quality brand and the cheap brand, but they both call themselves Kleenex.
