Strange.

I guess in a sense, GOP is about protecting powerful rich interests while Dems are about tearing those things down.

Wrong. Liberals are comfortable with convicting people based on heresay and conjecture. Conservatives would rather have concrete evidence.

ONe more thing the dems can point to that is terrible with America and George Bush's fault. The republicans like all politicians understand Americans will buy into that kind of crap and therefor don't want another mark on Bush's Presidency out there in the public right now.

GOP interested in slamming McNamee and then serving up softballs to Clemens.

And then you have the hacks like IndyCoug ready to jump in and support them.

Then you have trolls like MikeWaters trying to make stupid generalizations and then having the gall to call out someone else for doing the same thing.

Is it over or is it in recess. I went to lunch.

If it's in recess, 10:1 they're on the monkey bars.

Are you telling me I can blame Bush for this? That would be nice.

But frankly it's not necessary. They are enough dead Americans on his hands, due to his incompetence. A few shots of steroids in the butt are nothing in comparison.

Did you just cast aspersions on an entire class of people based on heresay and conjecture?

Maybe you had it backwards.

Once again, Cali Coug misses the point. Consistency isn't always a virtue.
