==================
Bolton Speaks the Truth
Just remember, the Senate would simply not give this man a straight up or down vote, forcing Bush to make him a recess appointment.

Methinks some senatorial types are really scared of what Bolton might find behind that UN Oil-for-Palaces scam.

You mean the entire planet was in on this rape of the Iraqi people to provide palaces for Saddam and bonuses for Palestinian suicide bombers and NO ONE in America knew a thing?

Bill Richardson Clinton's darling, who got Monica a job at the U.N., now Governor of New Mexico and with presidential aspirations, re-visited that issue about once being drafted by the Kansas City A's. And, well, Rich Galen explains it in a most side-splitting manner.

You don't think ole Bill was lying to us, do you?

I CAME TO THE CONCLUSION...

"According to CNN: 'For nearly four decades, (New Mexico Democrat Gov. Bill) Richardson, often mentioned as a possible Democratic presidential candidate, has maintained he was drafted [in 1966] by the Kansas City Athletics.'

"One of the reasons a lie in one's resume is so damaging is simple: It is totally and completely in the control of the person about whom it is written - especially when it has been included, as in Richardson's case, since he first ran for Congress in 1982.

"Richardson's explanation was fabulous: 'After being notified of the situation and after researching the matter...I came to the conclusion that I was not drafted by the A's.'

"What? 'Came to the conclusion...?' Yeah, Right. Until recently, I had believed I was the Sultan of Brunei. I 'came to the conclusion' I was not."

- Rich Galen, Mullings, 11/28/05

Hating Walmart
The sport du jour is Walmart bashing. Not that they aren't a perfectly legitimate business with plenty of American shoppers.

Can't have success. The Moonbats hate success. Success is a bad thing. In a perfect world nobody or no business would be successful. In a perfect world everyone would be mind-boggling mediocre.

But we'd all have wonderful self-esteem.

    It's fun using liberal's own words to illustrate how hypocritical, degenerate, and twisted they are.

    I hate liberals.

    Seriously.......

    I HATE liberals and evrything they stand for.

    Great job, Pat. I can't believe the nonsense about Walmart. Thanks for an enjoyable read.

    Enough about christmas. It is a religous holiday that would make jesus cringe. Ah, the celebration of indulgence and profit making all in the name of christ. I am sure he would be proud.

    Also, christ was not born anywhere near December 25th. The Catholic church borrowed the holiday from pagans to help convert them, knowing in time, this christmas holiday would need more customers to help ameircan companies profit from the birth of our lord savior.

    If you are a real christian, ban shopping at any store that does not donate its entire christmas profit to the poor in this world. Or is it important that we not face mind-boggling mediocre where the ceo of walmart who makes about $8500/ hour can share a little with his piant worker making $9/hour.

    Man, I hate people who hate liberals.

    Matthew

    I wasn't refuting anything.

    I was merely conveying the extremely intense, passionate, loathing I feel toward all you you communist, pedophile defending, condescenduing, hypocritical, tax raising, illegal alien loving, terrorist sympathizing, baby killing, racist, ACLU ass kissing, gay marriage promoting, christian bashing, anti american "progressive liberals."

    Hate just seemed like the best word to use when describing how I feel about you sorry sacks of elephant dung.

    Is attacking the messenger, not the message, really the best way to handle your thoughts, Wiggum?

    (I found it amusing that because I questioned your approach to rational discourse, you labeled me as a liberal.)

  • 9 - Chief Wiggum

    MMMMM Matthew I have read numerous posts of yours on BC and you are definitely left of center.

    Put that 'lol' on the board for you, Wiggum. My readers back in college would spit-take faster than a bulemic hydrophobe.

    But honestly, does invoking hatred towards a dissenting/differing opinion do anything constructive?

  • 11 - Chief Wiggum

    Dec 05, 2005 at 3:11 pm

    I'm just being honest about how I feel.

    Would you rather I lie and say how much I like liberals?

  • 12 - Matthew T. Sussman

    Dec 05, 2005 at 3:28 pm

    I would rather neither.

    I would rather debates focused on the content of the argument and not argue about the content of the debater.

    Some of my best friends are people I sorely disagree with at a deeply-rooted ideological level.

    communist: i guess you prefer democracy (tell me how pure our american democracy is)

    pedophile defending: it seems catholic priest cause the most trouble here

    condescenduing: i wil chulk thiss up to pore speeling

    hypocritical: "The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." What?

    tax raising: possibly to offset republican debt

    illegal alien loving: such as irish, spanish, african, korean, german, iranian, russian...its called america

    terrorist sympathizing: islam basher; is every muslim a terrorist in your eyes...tell the truth

    baby killing: is that your compassionate conservatism coming out

    racist: the white race has caused some problems

    ACLU ass kissing: our civil rights are somewhat important in a free country

    gay marriage promoting: lower rate of divorce, and in a civil society, none of my business what an adult does in private, unless it is hurting my traditonal marriage, then it should be banned

    christian bashing: yes, because it seems most christians dont actually follow what jesus said; do you think jesus would hold a womans hand that was having an abortion, or throw blood on her

    anti american progressive liberals: thats rich, the motto of the religous right; too bad america is not only for white christians who like to make money..it is so much more, and for you to call me a progressive liberal, who is interested in progress and rational thought, thanks for the compliment

    All right, kids, each of you sit in the corner and think about what you've done.

    So Walmart's competitors are all on the left? I thought the left didn't run businesses. Try to get your sterotypes straight. On a positive note, you are not mediocre.

    Murtha doesn't have the power to force a vote in the House. That would be the Republican leadership who control the House. It's amazing how people can write about politics yet know so little about the way it actually works.

    Wiggum, if you hate liberals so much, why use a name from a show that was created by mostly liberals in Hollywood? Change your name to Goliath. "I wouldn't go in there, Davey."

    Matt,

    The only problem is I have facts. I can defend my points. The other comments are just noise. It is a narrow opinion of what america should look like, and this type of nonsense needs to stop. It is time to move back to the center and come up with solutions based on common sense, that benefits evryone in this country, and our world we live in.

  • 17 - Matthew T. Sussman

    Dec 05, 2005 at 4:00 pm

    Michael, that may be true, but I have yet to see a word of that here in this thread.

    See, remember in third grade when a kid hit you and you hit him back, and you both get in trouble?

    Some Catch-22's never die.

  • 18 - Michael

    Dec 05, 2005 at 4:17 pm

    It is more like a kid hit me, and I try to tell him it did not hurt, and here are the reasons why

    1. your anger is from a feeling of inadequacy, which i do not take personally, but realize it is something to address for the benefit of schoolyard peace
    2. attempt to discuss where we differ
    3. if this works, great, we can begin to solve other problems. if it does not work, then agree to be civil in our disagreements

    I leave it to chief wiggum, i am putting him on notice

    What facts Michael?

    HOw about the facts that you progressives swear up and down how you support the troops then vote for people like Ted Kennedy and John Kerry who do nothing but cut military funding. Or how about how many of you so called progressives behave in such a patronizing manner toward the military treating them like baffoons who are incapable of knowing what's in thier own best interest.

    HOw about the fact that millions of illegals are coming across our southern border every year committing, crimes, getting free healthcare, not paying taxes and refusing to learn english. How about the fact that every time something is done to stop these illegals (ie Minutemen) the ACLU sues.

    HOw about the fact that every time someone says that tracking convicted child sex offenders is a good idea the ACLU claims the rights of those child sex offenders are being violated.

    How about the fact that while the pillars of the "progressive community" believe in raising taxes they themselves use every tax loophole they can find to pay the minumum amount of taxes.

    How about the fact that every "progressive" under the sun says America is under the threat of terrorism and Bush isn't protecting us but then these progressives bitch when there are baggage checks int he airport and the subway. NO not every muslim is a terrorist Michael but I havn't seen any 6 foot blonde fair skinned female muslim terrorists have you?

    How about the fact that "progressives" only seem to be concerned with the separation of church and state when Christianty is the religion in question but don't say boo when other religions are touted.

    Anti-American? Yes.........just take a look at all the "progressive" posters on here. Every word out of there mouths is how bad America is.....how stupid Americans are.......Like [Deleted in line with BC Comments Policy. Comments Editor.]Nancy calling the military the "American Death Brigade"
    I've never coem across such an ungrateful [Deleted in line with BC Comments Policy. Comments Editor.]

    Yes Racist.... progressives idolize people like Al Sharpton who filed false claims on behalf of Tawanna Brwley saying she was raped by a white man to stir racial tensions. You "progressives" claim call Republicans/conservatives racists but if any black person dares vote repub or say something that is slightly conservative you call them an Uncle tom or race traitor. Doesn't get much more racist than that.


    You're putting me on notice?
    [Deleted in line with BC Comments Policy. Comments Editor.]

    You're [Deleted] just like every other little left wing [Deleted]

    You are the fringe Michael.

    Your party can't win an electiont o save it's life and the American public is tired of you and your degenerate cronies trying to push your perverted, degenerate, agenda on this nation while attempting to destroy everything that was ever good, moral, and decent about this nation.

    Chief Wiggum please. Your arguements are pathetic. Let me break it down for you. Democrats also cut military spending. The military budget was at an all time low when a democrat was in the office-check your history books-and stop watching Bill O'Reily.

    2)America was built on the backs of immigrants and it still is. I bet you that more "citizens" of the U.S. contribute to crime than illegal immigrants. As for learning english-ha, walk down the dirt road in your trailer park and you will find that most people who are white can't speak proper english. As for health care-people who were born here can't even afford health care.

    3)Loopholes are always found by the rich-they belong to no party but the party of finance.

    4) Terrorists are white and 6ft tall, have you heard of the CIA? Again, read your history books if you can read. The CIA has killed hundreds of thousands, toppled governments and established corrupt regimes on their own. Give your head a shake. There is a world outside your trailer.

    5) As for your racist, very selective, and ignorant comments that go on from here-I ignore them. I can only discuss topics with people who actually understand them. Grow up-stop hiding behind your grade six education and read a book or two that doesn't contain more pictures than words.

    Better yet--travel to another country--stay there awhile and you'll learn that the U.S. will soon be little brother to China. Don't believe me? Wait a few years. So you better brush up on your Chinese because you will soon be working for them.

    I am worthless. After your tirade, I believe I you show some true colors. Conservatives dont play nice, and when called on their views, they freak out.

    I speak to my cousin in iraq once a week, and let him know how much I support him and the sacrifice he is making for the benefit of all of us. But it pains me to think his presence in iraq could have been avoided as a last resort, and how the administration failed to understand what would happen in iraq, when the citizens in this world were calling on diligence before the war started.

    go watch fox news, and continue to spit your venom. america will never be great with the likes of bush in the presidency and people like you spreading hate...we are as good or bad as our leaders, and right now, that is sad.

    I guess it's too much to ask WalMart to support American manufacturers by selling their products and American workers by paying them a fair wage and benefits? Is that a liberal ideology or simply a just one?
