Anne, You really think this is a battle for oil?? You really need to pull your head back out of your butt and learn the facts. You must be actually gullible and naive enough to believe Michael Moore's propaganda.. Next thing you know you'll offer to buy my ocean front property in North Dakota! -Mike

No Surrender.. You tryin' to stir up trouble again? I'm STILL trying to figure out what the democrats are truly doing to "unite" this country.. Maybe, for just a few minutes you can put your "Bush-bashing" on hold and tell me all the "great" things the democrats are doing. (This should be interesting!) -Mike

No Surrender, For once we agree on something! I agree 200% that Rolling Stone is by no means "quality reading". The point I was trying to make is that, regardless of medium or location of the obscenity, John Kerry was running for the democratic nomination at the time of the interview. Now if I were running for the democratic or republican or ANY party's nomination for president, I sure wouldn't be dumb enough to use that kind of crude language.. even if it was in Rolling Stone. But of course, that kind of talk from YOUR boy gets no recognition whatsoever. All you can do is criticize Dick Cheney use of the word. As I said before, I do not in any shape or form, condone Dick Cheney's cursing in Congress, either. I thought that was wrong, just like you did. But lets be fair.. if you're going to criticize one, criticize the other as well. I really don't think whether it's in the senate or in a Rolling Stone interview, or wherever.. it's still wrong. And I also admit when I'm wrong.. you are the exception to the rule here. Most of your Kerry-lovin' buddies on here WERE giving us the "unification" lecture. At least you've been true to yourself in this whole thing. I don't think you'd even SAY you want to see this country united. As I read all your posts, I don't think you'd ever like to see people working together for a common good. No, instead it's obvious you want to continue to breed hate between the Repubs and Demos and push them even further apart. -Mike

Yes, this board was very divisive before the election, but you couldn't wait to rub our noses in it, when your boy won. That makes you a sore winner! Why do you say we're posting crap? Did you ever think for one moment that it might just be the truth and you're too programmed to understand it? And hey. I'm not your SISTER. Once again your misogyney comes shining through. Women with brains bother you, don't they? I know how to win gratiously. You wouldn't have heard a peep. I wouldn't have continued this debate at all, had I not read the tripe you're posting.

washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A15423-2004Nov26.html?sub=AR This means if the Dems have a bill in which they can drum up enough GOP votes on to have a majority in the House, it will never make it to the floor because only those bills favored by a majority of GOP congressmen will make it to a vote. Gee, that doesn't sound divisive at all.
