Next topic please :)

agreed. if we're not going to discuss what a nutjob Olberman is, let the thread die. We all know libs love to cling to Olberman's words like so many flies on fecal matter. Sadly, it won't be enough to keep that sack of sh!t's program from getting cancelled. Libs don't realize they should actually WATCH his WHOLE program, rather than post his youtube videos in forums. The ratings will continue to fall otherwise :laugh:

Yes, because a country going into the crapper, a president who has failed at every turn, and nobody saying "WTF?" is only relevent in a 10min clip of a show that should be canceled.

Your, and other's post, are sad commentaries to what loyal opposition meant and to what a Republic should stand for. Do me a favor, next time you are in DC and want to take a tour of the monuments, PM me, because I want to be with you when you read some of the warnings the Founding Fathers had and what their legacy means.

Every time I go through the monuments (probably once a month) I become more morose about our current situation.

Objection. Assumes those accusing him of being a "nutjob" aren't the actual nutjobs. You can only wish you had half of Olbermann's intellect and wit.

Mmm... Flies and fecal matter. Now, you're getting back to a subject where I'm sure you have much more expertise. :laugh:

Yes, and if Bush had been running against Gore or Clinton in 2004, you might have a point. But that's not what happened, was it? Corbett's point was that Democrats said "the tide is turning" before the 2004 election and "look how that turned out", implying that they got their asses handed to them. I simply pointed out that Bush's margin of victory over Kerry in 2004 wsa historically a very narrow one, especially for a sitting President, suggesting that perhaps the Dems DIDN'T get their asses kicked in 2004.

So losing multiple seats in both houses, as well as another bid at the presidency wouldnt be considered "getting you ass kicked." I see.

Who said anything about house seats? I was just talking about the Presidential election.

So then you admit that the democrats were defeated handily in the 2004 elections (except for John Kerry)? LMAO!

Come on, admit it. The Dem's got their asses kicked big time in 2004.

They're making all of the same mistakes this time around so expect a repeat performance.

I'd hardly call what happened in 2004 an "ass kicking". Furthermore, the mistakes you speak of are only mistakes because the Repuglicans try and spin them as cowardly and confused.

2004 was nothing but lies and deceit and those lies are starting to be exposed. I voted for Bush in 2000, he lost me after Iraq and I voted for Kerry in 2004. I am what used to be called a Republican. However, those ideals that were held dear have been ripped apart by those who wish to grab too much power.

Think of what a Republican stands for, small government, strong civil liberties, weaker central government, isolationistic standards. All of that is gone. Now we have these control-freaks trying to destroy everything, if nothing but for power. People like you let them, because you think like they do.

"Wow, we sure kicked their asses this time, go team republican!!" Without thinking of what exactly you have done.

Look at Iraq. What is to be proud of there? Yet again Bush ignored every conventional military wisdom, ignorantly pushing forward. Even now they hide what they screwed up, lies and deceit all over again. Their plans have failed and now we are engaged in an unwinnable war. There are no victory conditions, no structure to fight, no leader to kill. Iraq will *NEVER* end and we will *NEVER* kill terrorism.

Stupidity would disagree, and does, and that is what Bush and the Repuglicans pander to.

The people who made the mistake are fools like yourself who voted for Bush. There is no message that works for fools.

No one needs to "spin" anything. They are cowardly and confused.

You're right. It was lies and deceit. The one that comes to mind is John "Drop The Ball" Kerry who assured us that Bush had this "secret plan" to reinstate the draft right after the 2004 election. Remember that?

Many people said that, and they did explore the possibility of reinstating it.

One thing I am constantly amused about is the idea that dems have no position. People say "they are just anti-bush". Well, isn't that a position.

If somebody were to go and murder somebody else, I would say "I wouldn't have done that", and that is a moral position. If somebody goes and invades a country while lying about it to everybody, they can say "We wouldn't have done that" and that is a position.

As far as the Iraq pull-out. In needs to happen, plain and simple. Iraq is a disaster and a very unwinnable one. We have screwed it up to the point that it is impossible to win. You can deny it all you want, but you are just doing what Bush wants.
