AW, I think it's great that people have different opinions. If all people were the same the world would be a very boring place. If people hated Bush so much why did he win the election by record numbers over Ketchup boy? We control the Senate and the House too. This isn't because being a Republican is the only choice. It's because it's the right choice. It's like when I first started drinking wine, I liked the white fruity kind. Now after years of drinking it my taste buds have matured and I prefer a dry red. People change their taste for all things. Usually for the better.

You think it's great that people have different opinions, but they are wrong if they are different from yours. First you say I pick and choose my facts, then when I have facts you can't dispute you change the subject. I never once said republicans were evil unworthy politicians. Nor did I praise the dems. What I said was that I don't like what bush has done for the economy or the environment, but did like what clinton did for it. I'm not sure what that has to do with how you (yes you seem to think your part of it) control the senate and the house. I am grounded in reality well enough to know that I have a vote, but don't have control over our government. I also try not to get down to the level of name calling, ketchup hater, but some times fail. Maybe you should go back to the fruity white wine, or should I say whine!

Record numbers? 51 percent? That's never been achieved before? Or are you talking about record number of voters? It is true that W received more votes than anyone in the history of the United States. It's also true that "ketchup boy" recieved the second highest vote total ever ... MORE PEOPLE VOTED! It's also true, btw, that W got more votes in precincts in Ohio than people lived in those precincts ... so it's all relative.

Read the "plutonium Files" Mr Clinton was in power then.The pres. always has veto power.He let the cover up be ok.Rep. or Dem. it depends on what is on the inside.....Dovey

A very good point Dovey. I would love to read the book, where can I get it. The great thing about being willing to read and/or hear new things is you can always learn. Keep an open mind and you will accomplish great things.

E-Bay,Amazon,or a book store,Read it,weep.wonder why.....Hope no one here has a HP and a #.My open mind is amazed so many people over the age of 65 know all about this....Should have been a movie.....open mind ,with one eye closed Dovey

Even after a President vetoes something, it can still be overturned by Congress.

Here's another way to look at things. Clinton was a dog in his spare time, and something of an embarrasment for the country. But nothing he did in private affected me, or you, or any other citizen. His actions in an official capacity were mostly positive. What Bush is doing we can't escape from. He's ruining things for everyone, except himself and his wealthy 'base.'

AHHHH But it did effect you and me.January 1994 "The Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments" was formed under Mr Clinton rain.Rep. and Dem. alike were involved.In the end they decided it was bad what was done but,do did not put the blame in anyones hands.Now the records of these people are hidden .Both pres. are at fault.and so are we because we keep blaming the person over there.......Dovey

I'm thinking of things that are less obscure, like waging a war, or wasting enough money to make Solomon blush. Bush has spent an obscene amount of our tax money needlessly. And that severely affects everyone, Reps & Dems alike.

I never said I thought this war was right either.I never said I voted for Mr. Bush.What I did say ,I can see huge mistakes from the both of them,that has cost us more than I care to think about.But I do,think that is..................Dovey

MC, I like yours better than Scott's. They are definitely the 2 main reasons I voted for him. Good Values and Big Balls. Too bad he can't be elected for a third term. Well there's always his brother who could continue where he leaves off. lol

How do you post a picture?

-- Edited by jspeer at 23:29, 2005-05-05

Mindcrime · Guru

Easiest way is to click & drag your mouse over it (like you were highlighting text) and Copy it. Then just paste it in.

Why does everyone think copy and pasteing so eazy.....................

When you're posting, there's a bunch of buttons above the area you're writing in. B I U IMG URL @, etc.

If you click on IMG, up pops a box asking you the location of your image. Just type in (or paste in) the url of that image from another web site. You cannot upload an image to the forum, so the image must already be on the web in order to get it in the forum.

An image's url, by the way, can be found by right-clicking on any internet image and choosing "properties" from the ensuing menu. That should tell you the URL location of the image. If you're using Firefox, BTW, a menu selection says "copy image location."

MC, you are the man I figured out how to post pics. Thanks, now I can post some funny crap.
