Clinton's first two years of his presidency were very partisan, and disasterous. He then moved closer to the center, and had much more success with that tactic.

What part of Fox News is that source? I guess there must be some kind of a conspiracy afoot here.

Could you point out some of the falsehoods the writer seemed to think he sees at the White House. Your post says nothing but that it is all lies and that the guy is a hack. I would really appreciate your telling me about all the outright lies you found. I think I have seen about everything he said. Help me understand, please.

Why don't YOU read it again. Read the parts he's supposedly enraged about. His anger, if it really exists, is COMPLETELY justified.
Why don't you list those parts for me instead of having me go back and read the whole article. I found so little that I couldn't agree with that I thought that even left leaning victims would not be able to do anything but what you have done, and that is to talk about how bad that was without listing one thing that you can prove to be wrong. How does it feel to be left leaning and unable to talk about what is wrong, just that it is without discussing the wrong things?

No truth but which of the man's points aren't truth? You have done the very thing that your kind of folks do so well. Did you say that nothing but lies come from American Thinker? Make up a list of the lies you saw and get them to me so I know which statements were just bald faced lies.

You are only 50% right here in that there are two of us that think just like that man does, with me in there. Actually Sunkl thinks that way so that makes you only 1/3 right.

They get their talking points du jour from the psycho talkers such as Lim-bore, Frau Pallin, Michelle "Crazy Eyes" Malkin, Sean Insanity and Glen "Jim Jones" Beck. There are others, but we all know who they are.
Do I have your permission to watch Glenn Beck today. He will be on in just over 30 minutes and I will be right there, whether you like it or not.

Are you talking about the good guys and their prattle or are you talking about your left leaning friends?

If a person does not vote or form an opinion on a reprentative's voting record, they are not prepared to praise or criticize them. Many on this thread, right wing in particular, do not really care what the representative's or candidate's stance is, as long as they have an "R" on their jersey, they are acceptable and their views, no matter how reprehensible, are cheered.
How about Scozzafava? She had an R on her jersey and I have been after her for some time. Of course, I think her R stood for RINO.
