Dubya does have a lot on his plate, but honestly, so much of it is self-inflicted. I really don't think we could be much worse off. In fact, I think the worst is yet to come.
I agree with you here, and am wondering just what worst things are yet to come.

I know. I'm trying to keep it light.

And sometimes, yeah, I DO fit that bill. Hey, I can admit it.

The avenues of achieving those things are the heart of the debate, in my opinion.

I have found some common ground with most on here and I've always acknowledged it

Some extreme liberals too

I know this question wasn't directed at me, but I can assure you mb919 does NOT have a empty head. As to his/her level of education, I haven't a clue, nor does it matter.
She wasn't referring to mb919. She was referring to me. Back before she was banned when she was known as a1m1700, she had a habit of going overboard in insulting those posters who disagreed with her, and then in one of my few forays into a political thread, she decided to do the same to me, so I reciprocated in turn and called her out on her inconsistency in how she was able to dish it out to others but not take it. Since she re-registered under her current name however, she hasn't been nearly as abrasive and antagonistic as she once was and has kept the personal insults to a minimum thankfully.

Ok, now I am THOROUGHLY confused.

Wait a minute, have you posted in this thread or did I miss something?
