Don't recall hs, but I believe Galt already denied it yesterday. Are you calling him a liar?

When you get done laughing, do you have any comments on this statement Galt?

Sorry, I don't feed the trolls, as you kids like to say.

That's what I thought.

Oh, more than that. I understood that by the time Galt et al would be done, Kerry would be pretty much in the same boat as Hanoi Jane. You may defend that tactic or not. Frankly what you and I think is irrelevent. I was not going to let it go unmentioned in spite of that. Please feel free to participate or not, just as I elect to critize Bush for some things (Iraq) and not for others (past cocaine use).

None of these guys are saints, however I won't claim how wonderful my side is, and that the others are dangerous Nazis. You handle it as you see fit.

Dean was, but he is seen as less of a threat. Kerry was not of much interest but suddenly he is their focus.

Oh, and before you guys come back with something asinine like "Well everyone picks on Bush", Bush is the ONLY one who will be the Republican Presidential candidate in November, and he certainly has participated in world affairs enough to be noteworthy. At this point I will refrain from saying anything else, but I reserve the right to change that when the inevitable attacks begin :D


Not that it really bothers me, but the RNC candy stripers are predictable and certainly entertaining. Carry on. :p

Well of course the attacks are predictable. Thats what they're supposed to do.

What really pisses me off is the fact that no one bothered to find this recent news during the majority of the debates, before Dean got knocked into a gutter. People were forcing Dean to open up his records - which at worst would have found some pandering to special interests - while Kerry the hypocrite had a huge record a million times worse.

You folks can quote me all you want on this but I'm much less pleased that Kerry is the front runner.

Yeah but you would have been really upset if Dean got the Nomination and only won a state or two in the General Elelction. Democrats are going with Kerry as they believe that he is electable where as Dean isn't no matter how bad the Dub stumbles!

I feel my job is done here, then; I'm with you, sir...less than pleased. Now, given the choice, Dean looks a lot more presidential than Kerry, even with his YAAAAHHHHHHHAAAWWWW speech. I would rather have a person excited about the race, than a person who got excited from haphazardly firing on civilians, only to come home and blast his fellow soldiers....then run on a "look at me, a Vietnam vet" campaign...talk about the ultimate hypocrisy.

In regards to 'electability', Howard Dean isn't high on the charts but assuming that all these discoveries are going to be piled on Kerry in the final debates, the president is going to be elected as the lesser-evil (based on facts), not the better poster boy.

Pfft! Don't start thinking you've converted me to your end of the spectrum. I've been a Dean supporter since the beginning because I believe in what he stands for and I refuse to vote for another candidate "because everyone else is" or "Because hes the most 'electable'".

I still think the majority of your logic is crap, Galt :beer:
