Send him to live back in Crawford; he seems to love it there so much anyway that I doubt he'd complain.

Yes, let's send bush back to Crawford...

My husband is a liar and a cheat. He cheated on me from the beginning,

and when I confront him, he denies everything. What's worse, everyone
knows he cheats on me. It is so humiliating.

Also, since he lost his job four years ago he hasn't even looked for a

new one. All he does is buy cigars, play golf, cruise around, and shoot
the breeze with his pals, while I have to work to pay the bills.

Since our daughter graduated from college he doesn't even pretend to

like me and hints that I am a lesbian. What should I do?

Signed,

*Dear Clueless*:

Grow up and dump him. For Pete's sake , you don't need him anymore.

You're a United States Senator from New York , act like it.

In Australia, 10 stingrays were found sliced and diced, possibly as revenge for Steve Irwin's untimely demise. It's a shame, I'm sure Steve would never want this, he loved animals so much.

I was talking about this with my dad yesterday. We live in a rural area and the price of regular at the local station is $2.75/gal and we live in California. Gas hasn't been that cheap in years around here it seems. After the election I bet it'll go back up to $3.45/gal.

Loki · 09-15-2006, 12:41 AM

We all bitch and complain about the price of gas. We all blame the oil producers, the war, other countries the reasons go on and on. The bottom line is it is our own Government that is really to blame, the Gov. make more money from the taxes they get than the oil companies make, and they make billions of $$$ per year from sales. With that in mind how can the prices go down? The
Gov. is a very hungry monster that loves to eat our tax dollars.

We the American consumer are really stupid, why? Bottled water, yep, bottled water.
Here in NY we pay $1.25 for a 20 ounce bottle of water.
There are 128 ounces per gallon.

20 oz serving goes into 128 oz. 6.4 times.
6.4 x $1.25 = $8.00 per gallon, for freakin' water

$3.00 for a gallon of gas and $8.00 for a gallon of water what is up with that? The earth is 70% water. Right I know we can't drink ocean water, wrong, we can there are many ways of processing ocean water for human consumption.

For the record, I drink 2-4 bottles per day and I vote, I would love to get some good Government Officals in office. I think that is the only way we can slay the monster with such a huge appitite for our tax dollars.

Please vote, November is just around the corner. Even if there are no good candidates to vote for vote for the least evil of them. Those who appose the new Viet Nam War and is 180% different from Dubya wins my vote.

Hey Sikdogg I hear theyre about to change the name of Southern California to Northern Mexico. Why dont ya'll have a damn vote out there to build one of those damn electric fences that will shock the ever living hell out of em if they cross the border?

If someone trespasses on your property, you have the right to shoot them right? Why can't the military or border patrol shoot people who trespass on Uncle Sam's property? WTF!?!?!

Loki · 09-15-2006, 09:13 PM

Doesn't that bug anybody?

Here in NY we can't shoot people who tresspass, we can't even defend ourselves without getting arrested, we have to waite for the cops to come and save us. But I would rater be judged by 12 than carried by six.

Yea but that would go against the North American Union that Bush has been pushing since he came to office. This is the reason why he is against enforcing border security... and to think that we're all supposed to have this in place by 2010.

Who believes the Republicans will retain Congress and who believes the Democrats will actually regain it in the November elections?

sikdogg · 09-15-2006, 11:58 PM

The scary thing about the whole North American Union thing is that it is being drafted and things are put into motion with out congressional knowledge or consent. This idea is being railroaded thru with agreements between the US, Mexico, and Canada being negotiated without ever telling citizens of the plan.

I think that there's a much better chance of Democrats capturing the House, but the Senate is going to be much harder. The Democrats need to win almost every competitive Senate seat to do so.

I think Bush is threatened by the European Union. It may be able to compete with America economically, but that's it. A supranational confederation with 20 (yes, 20!) official languages will never be able to form a unified opposition to the United States.

but the Democrats suck less at this point. I find it hard to beleive that a person like bush could get elected in the first place " I mean steal the election, then get voted in" I can only hope that anybody who supports dubya will get voted out of office.
It will take us many, many years to undo the damage he and his stooges have caused.
I feel that it is piss poor that if you don't agree with "W" you are unAmerican or on the side of the evildoers "what ever to fuck they are"
I think "W" would be funny if he wasn't so damned dangerous, never heard anybody make up words the way he does, and he is the leader of the most powerful nation the world has ever known. Don't know about you but he scares the fuck out of me.

Yes and he seriously believes he will go down in American history as one of the greatest, most important presidents ever. Bush may wear Western clothes and all, but he's still a fundamentalist and not much different than Osama in that regard.

Loki · 09-16-2006, 02:03 AM

I feel he is a terrorist too, one difference though, "W" is responsible for more deaths than Osama. I wonder how many in all?
I wonder how America will recieve bush after he is out of office? Will anybody trust him enough to do business with him? Will anybody want to do business with him? How will he like not having the power to pick and choose the questions that will be asked of him?
It is so sad the we the American people worry more about a guy getting a little head and leaving a cumstain on a blue dress than we are about a crazy man destableizing the world.
Another thing that gets me is when a person says God spoke to them they are labled a schizophrenic but we call him Mr. President.
One thing for sure though, the table is turning and I truly hope people remember who called us unAmerican for speaking our minds and vote those polititions out of office.

I really don't care that much. I mean, sure the Dems are the lesser of 2 evils, right now. I don't really have anything against the Repubs generally, it's just this administration that I despise. After the grand theivery of the 2000 election, and after this idiot got re-elected, I lost faith in the legitimacy of democracy. No longer do I feel that every vote counts. When people say that, it's just a propaganda assertion. I mean, I'm registered as a Dem, but I'm not voting anymore. The only reason why people vote in the first place is because they believe in the legitimacy of voting, and they support the state.

To paraphrase a bit, if you give up like that the Administration has won.

Let me get this straight. The Christian God is personally swoopping down from the sky chataeu and instructing George Bush to kill thousands by dropping bombs? UBL is causing a revolution in the name of Allah, George Bush launched an illegal invasion of a soverign nation under the instruction of the Christian diety. Terrorists are strapping bombs to their chests to acess some sky place. Anybody see anything wrong with this?
