I sit here amazed that the ultra conservative Mark Williams, who has hammered and prattled and ran on and on about the power of the private sector and personal responsibility and how terrible welfare programs are has yet to say a single critical word about New Deal Parts 2 through 100, much less screeched about it every day for weeks. Its because Bush is for it. Bush supporters are not conservatives. Bush is not a conservative. Bush is a miserably failed president who starts wars of aggression, launches huge welfare programs, and blows the budget. Worse than Clinton in every measure imaginable. Yet he gets a pass because he's a Republican. This really exposes the Bush supporters for what they are: mindless drones who are tools of the Bush propaganda machine, unable to come up with an original thought. Or a though of any kind for that matter. > One thing I would like to see (but probably won't) is for one > Congressman > to step forward and reject the pork dedicated to his district.

John McCain (an actual fiscal conservative---and branded a near traitor by the Bush political machine) has demanded that Congress give up its pork and use that money to help victims of Katrina. He wants to make sure the money isn't wasted on bridges to nowhere and expansions of peanut pavilions. It will never happen; this bonanza is way too big to pass up. No time for morality or justice here; its a money grubbing free for all!

Geez, you're tired, elementary school, "scathing commentary" is really pathetic. Says a lot about the author, that's for sure. At this point, to sum things up: you're obviously kind of dimwitted and really not worth responding to - far, far, far below even Joe's typically lame level of discourse - so you're effectively killfiled.

That's not the case - there are a few leftist trolls here as well. That said PV is most definitely a troll, and/or an extreme partisan to the point that his brain is warped to the point that he's lost contact with reality. How else to account for PV's statements like this one: "Your spastic knee-jerk everything's W's fault blinds you to this..." directed at me in a recent post in this thread? I've stated repeatedly in this thread that re- the Katrina response govt at ALL levels are at fault. Statements like that from PV are nothing more than pathetic mudslinging, whether PV has a enough of a grasp on reality to realise this or not. Then there's this exchange: ______________________________ > >* Do you acknowledge that the Bush Adminstration's response during the > >first several days of the Katrina disaster was inexcusably poor? > > What part of: > >Poor??? How 'bout less than ideal...'Bout as far as I'm gonna go being > >there was NO FUCKING RESPONSE from the local potato heads other than > >sittin' round shittin' their pants and pointing fingers... > Did you not understand? ______________________________ This isn't a game or a scorecard where the feds' piss-poor response gets radically upgraded to "less than ideal" because of anything that the local govt did or didn't do - the feds are responsible for their own response (and lack thereof). And the fact that PV refuse to acknowledge this obvious fact demonstrates that he's a troll, an extreme partisan idiot, or some combination of the two - no doubt about it.

MARSEILLE, France (Reuters) - A Frenchman in his sixties lived for five years with the body of his dead mother to keep receiving her 700 euros monthly pension, judicial sources said Saturday. The man, a hospital morgue worker, is to be prosecuted for fraud and concealing a death Saturday after police found the corpse in a two-room apartment in the city center in piles of rubbish. Police went to the flat because of unpaid rent and other bills. The man had imitated an old woman's voice to deceive the social services. His mother had died of natural causes at the age of 94. bbb wrote: I just dont know what to say. Is this the same thing as me keeping my bird in the freezer? I have to let it go.
