Deflect and avoid. The fastest way to lose credibility. Thanks for playing.

Ummm...because you refuse to answer it??? Deflect and avoid. Nice.

bull sh--. It is a legitimate question. Of not Haliburton, who would you send a bid package to for a quote? It seems like you want to purposely avoid the question.

...and at no point did I excuse any party nor the President. All are equally responsible. Hell, this was the main focal point of my Presidential campaign, blasting Bush and the Republicans and Democrats for out of control spending. Both parties have absolutely no regard for the taxpayer's hard-earned money.

Yes, it is an easy budget cut, but what is that compared to the entire budget? Without seeing the numbers, I am guessing a small percentage. It is a start. They could make small cuts in every department, still provide the same services and make an impact in the overall budget.

I have no problem with them voting against raising the limit. That is a good thing. Of course, their usual solution is to raise taxes instead. That is a bad thing

There are no Democrats in Congress? You might want to check that.

<sigh> CNN Thingy FOX Thingy I especially like this part of the article on FOX: Ummm...no...they forgot one other alternative: CUTTING SPENDING!! This is also priceless: Hey Harry and other Dems...Congress controls spending, not the President. <sigh>

Token moves with no substance. It is an election year, so they need to look like they are doing something without actually doing something. Gotta love Congresscritters.

You think RK is a liberal?

I think Luxembourg is available. What are their qualifications to run major shipping ports?

Except when they want to make a name for themselves and kill the Dubai Ports World deal while completely ignoring other countries who also operate our ports. Then, the oversite goes apesh!t. When was the last time the Dems controlled the WH, Senate and House? It probably has something to do with that. Of course, they cannot even come up with an agenda beyond "Bush Bad," so it is hard to have dissenters when there is no message to dissent from. It takes more than just one Senator to do that. Sounds like the Republican arguments against McCain. He sides with the other party on certain issues and he gets disowned by the party.

It is not about sensibility. It is about party loyalty. The party comes before anything else. Of course, that is one of the reasons why things are so eff'ed up now, but that is another thread.

Still too big.

The box is too big to be VABills.

Tae Kwon Do.

Some bum we picked up off the street.

See my profile for my pic.

Probably the same committee who didn't know Dubai Ports World was aquiring P&O before the lawsuit in Miami hit the news.

Just a rumor, but I heard that they actually ran the script by him before doing it, to make sure he was OK with it. I am guessing that the Scientology people saw the episode and "applied pressure" to Hayes to quit.

It's a shocker, isn't it? I also saw his hypocrisy in his debates with GG, complaining about GG putting words into his mouth. I just about fell out of my chair laughing at that one.

It is tough to grasp two things at the same time. Right now, we are bashing Arabs. Once that dies down, then we can start hating the Asians.

He was allegedly injected with drugs that prevent his blood pressure meds from working.

Honestly, I think he dies before it ends. With the way that things are being dragged out, there is no way it ends anytime soon.

I especially liked Ignatius' last few sentences: Thanks for providing the links.
