You know Pat, this is one of your major issues. You don't seem to be able to read something and understand what it says. I don't have the time or interest to teach you how to do that. For the record there is exactly one editorial statement in that article...that's one. It doesn't need to be there and if the reporter had left it out it would not have made any difference.

Here's the one statement:

"What ever happened to restoring honor and dignity?"

There was no need to add this because the article is a list of facts and on the record statements about what has gone on and unless you are a complete fool there is no way someone reading the article could not draw their own conclusions. Those conclusions, based on the facts presented, would obviously not be positive for the boys and girls at Bushco.

So, I think it was a poor choice to throw this question into the middle of a well laid out list of bad behavior from our favorite Bushies. I don't think it detracts from the article or the facts presented but it was kinda dumb to include it.

As far as your "spice" comments go. I would love to see more posts from Dale and Kevin G because they present clear arguments and logically present their thoughts. People may disagree with them but at least you can have a discussion with them that makes sense. It's probably not fair for me to ask them to post more because this is a board that leans left and they will get challenged when talking politics. I think they are up to the task (so is Marc by the way) but they may not be up for the aggravation. In truth I think they are better men than me in this regard because if I was posting political stuff on a board that leaned to the right and got 18 replies of varying degrees of disagreement with me each time I posted...I probably would not have lasted anywhere near as long doing it as Dale and Kevin have here. Who wants to show up for a beating every day? So I applaud them both for being as tough and tolerant as they have been.

All you do is bullshit when it comes to politics. Your response to this article I posted clearly demonstrates the way you operate. It's not funny, makes no sense, and appears to show off your lack of interest in (or comprehension of) the subject matter...not to mention displaying your hardcore partisan "let's deny anything about Republican wrong doing no matter the expense" blather.

This board is more fun with different views being presented...you are 100% correct about that but you don't present a viewpoint, Pat...you walk into the room, fart, and walk out. I guess we found it funny the first 700 times you did it and somehow it just lost its...ahhh...charm.
