Kerry Has Thin Legislative Record -
Source:Monty Python and the Holy Grail Author:Monty Python Edited by:LostInSpace Setting: A fictitious suburban location in California. BUSH: Old Woman! LIBERAL: Man! (pushing a shopping cart) BUSH: Old Man, sorry. What Senator lives in that mansion over there? LIBERAL: I'm thirty seven. BUSH: What? LIBERAL: I'm thirty seven -- I'm not old! BUSH: Well, I can't just call you `Man'. LIBERAL: Well, you could say `Dennis'. BUSH: Well, I didn't know you were called `Dennis.' LIBERAL: Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you? BUSH: I did say sorry about the `old woman,' but from the behind you looked-- LIBERAL: What I object to is you automatically treat me like an inferior! BUSH: Well, I am your Commander-in-Chief... LIBERAL: Oh Commander-in-Chief, eh, very nice. An' how'd you get that, eh? By exploitin' the workers -- by 'angin' on to outdated right wing dogma which perpetuates the economic an' social differences in our society! If there's ever going to be any progress-- LIBERAL'S WIFE(green party): Dennis, there's some lovely filth down here. Oh -- how d'you do? BUSH: How do you do, good lady. I am BUSH, President of all Americans. Who's mansion is that? LIBERAL'S WIFE: President of the who? BUSH: Americans. LIBERAL'S WIFE: Who are the Americans? BUSH: Well, we all are. we're all Americans and I am your President. LIBERAL'S WIFE: I didn't know we had a President. I thought we were an autonomous collective. LIBERAL: You're fooling yourself. We're living in a Republican dictatorship. A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes-- LIBERAL'S WIFE: Oh there you go, bringing class into it again. LIBERAL: That's what it's all about if only people would-- BUSH: Please, please good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that mansion? LIBERAL'S WIFE: No one lives there. BUSH: Then who is your senator? LIBERAL'S WIFE: We don't have a senator. BUSH: What? LIBERAL: I told you. We're an anarcho- syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. BUSH: Yes. LIBERAL: But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting. BUSH: Yes, I see. LIBERAL: By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,-- BUSH: Be quiet! LIBERAL: --but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more-- BUSH: Be quiet! I order you to be quiet! LIBERAL'S WIFE: Order, eh -- who does he think he is? BUSH: I am your President! LIBERAL'S WIFE: Well, I didn't vote for you. BUSH: But I'm still your President. LIBERAL'S WIFE: Well, 'ow did you become President then? BUSH: The voting machines in florida, [angels sing] punch arms clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft chads from the bosom of punch cards by Divine Providence that I, BUSH, was to be your commander-in-Chief. [singing stops] That is why I am your President! LIBERAL: Listen -- strange machines lying about in polling stations distributing erroneous chads is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical dangling chads. BUSH: Be quiet! LIBERAL: Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some crazed machine is dangling chads at you! BUSH: Shut up! LIBERAL: I mean, if I went around sayin' I was an emperor just because some machine had dangled chads at me they'd put me away! BUSH: Shut up! Will you shut up! (grabbing and shaking the liberal) LIBERAL: Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system. BUSH: Shut up! LIBERAL: Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! HELP! HELP! I'm being repressed! BUSH: Bloody Liberal! LIBERAL: Oh, what a give away. Did you here that, did you here that, eh? That's what I'm on about -- did you see him repressing me, you saw it didn't you?

Why the democrats will lose
LostInSpace replied to LostInSpace's topic in Politics, Religion & Legal etc
I could not have said it better: Reasons The Dems Will Lose "In accepting the nomination of his party Thursday night, John Kerry could not quite bring himself to give both the president and the volunteer military who performed so well some credit for this great and significant advance for human liberty. The theme of liberty in the Muslim world belongs to George Bush. It was he who named liberty the only real alternative to terrorism. With a firm reliance on Divine Providence," to cite our forebears once again, Bush has publicly held that one cannot fight terrorism merely by killing terrorists. One must provide an alternative of liberty, prosperity, and opportunity -- one must labor to build free societies where they do not now exist. Liberty works. I think Bush will win because these are the truths Americans hold. Bush believes these truths. At this moment, the Democrats (who used to believe them, nobly so) do not even see their relevance. Kerry spoke well about patriotism, the international leadership of America, and liberty -- but he seems willfully blind to the relevance of these beautiful ideals to Iraq, Afghanistan, and the war on terrorism. For such ideals and purposes some 900 young Americans of this generation have laid down their lives. They will be thanked by generations yet unborn. So will their commander-in-chief. -

The federal government warned Sunday of possible terrorist attacks against "iconic" financial institutions in New York City, Washington and Newark, N.J., saying a confluence of intelligence over the weekend pointed to a car or truck bomb.

And Kerry is better or different than Bush how?
LostInSpace replied to LostInSpace's topic in Politics, Religion & Legal etc
Have a look at thisIf John Kerry becomes president, the first lady will have a track record of support for the causes of radical, anti-American groups ÔÇô including Islamists, terrorist-defense law firms, abortionists and homosexual activists ÔÇô that, by comparison, would make much of the country nostalgic for the days of Hillary Clinton, a study of her philanthropy patterns by Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin concludes. You know the first lady should be held to same standards and regulations as the President.The same regulation that will keep Arnold Schwarzenegger from becoming President. In other words, a born american citizen one that grew up and educated on American soil. A woman that knows Americans right down to the grass roots. Laura Bush is the wife of George W. Bush, the 43rd president of the United States. She holds a bachelor's degree in education from Southern Methodist University and a master's degree in library science from the University of Texas; after graduation she worked as an elementary school teacher and a librarian in Texas schools. She married Bush in 1977. During her husband's years as governor of Texas (1995-2001), Laura Bush became known as an advocate for education and literacy -- issues she continued to pursue in the White House. --------------------------------------------- Teresa Heinz Kerry is the wife of Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts and the former wife of the late Senator John Heinz of Pennsylvania. Heinz Kerry was born in Mozambique, the daughter of a Portuguese medical doctor. She earned a bachelor's degree from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, and later attended the University of Geneva. In 1966 she married Henry John Heinz III (known as John), a member of the Heinz ketchup and condiment family. A Republican, he was elected U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania in 1976, and remained in that post until he was killed in a plane crash in 1991. As his widow, Teresa Heinz has since overseen the Heinz family's charitable endowments, in which role she has particularly supported environmental causes in America and internationally. She first met Kerry in 1990 (at an Earth Day rally, according to her official bio) and they were reintroduced the year after John Heinz's death. The pair married in 1995. -------------------------------------------- quote:Originally posted by Jaguar: Did you see that Speech? OMG!!! Unfortunately, I saw the whole convention.

Have a read (it's an article from february)Political oxymoron weigh-in. If President Bush's challengers continue to shout "jobless recovery," then Republicans need to shout back "visionary Democrats" because their ability to grasp the economy at hand is too near-sighted for common sense. ------------------------------------------------ Sen. Tom Daschle, South Dakota Democrat, introduced the Jobs for America Act, seeking to punish American firms that take jobs offshore. Ironically, the Democrats leading presidential hopeful, Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, had a small outsourcing scandal of his own uncovered in Wisconsin recently when alert voters noticed on their caller-ID that his campaign's telemarketing calls were coming from Canadian numbers. Is there no shame? ------------------------------------------------ While companies may not be adding traditional jobs as they have in the past, self-entrepreneurs are creating entire businesses for themselves from the work that is being generated by companies ÔÇö large and small ÔÇö in the midst of the recovery. The Bush administration needs to change the terms of the debate and trumpet the rapid growth of the contingent work force, where work and wealth are being created for individuals, while improving the economic competitiveness and fortunes of citizens and companies alike. And what was that war drum beat he spewed at the convention about keeping jobs in America? [ 08-01-2004, 02:46 PM: Message edited by: LostInSpace ] -

True it might be a good movie but the point is that it's being advertised as something it is not. That's like Universal Combat being advertised as a game for the casual gamer (which of course it is not).

Thanks for heads up on this one. Yeah, the TV adverts here made it look like a thriller/horror or at least a good ghost story. I'm sure it's the same commercial running country wide. So basically, what they did was disguise a chick flick to get the guys to go see it. Well we still have AVP to look forward to.

Ongoing Evidence Of Media Bias
LostInSpace replied to Steve Schacher's topic in Politics, Religion & Legal etc
CyberAlert. Tracking Liberal Media Bias Since 1996. Cameras were rolling last night when Teresa Heinz Kerry falsely claimed sheÔÇÖd never called Republicans ÔÇ£un-American,ÔÇØ telling the Pittsburgh Tribune-ReviewÔÇÖs Colin McNickle to ÔÇ£shove itÔÇØ when he persisted in asking her to elaborate. All of the networks thought Mrs. KerryÔÇÖs saying ÔÇ£shove itÔÇØ was more newsworthy than either her calling opponents ÔÇ£un-AmericanÔÇØ -- a way she also described the GOP during an interview with MSNBCÔÇÖs Chris Matthews on Sunday -- or her lying about it when caught. Of the three broadcast networks this morning, only ABCÔÇÖs Good Morning America showed enough videotape for viewers to actually see how Heinz Kerry first decried ÔÇ£some of the creeping un-Pennsylvanian and sometimes un-American traits that are coming into some of our politics,ÔÇØ only to tell McNickle a few moments later that she did not say ÔÇ£un-American.ÔÇØ On The Early Show, CBS held itself to just playing the words ÔÇ£shove it,ÔÇØ while NBCÔÇÖs Campbell Brown would only go so far as to say that ÔÇ£she reportedly told the reporter to, quote, ÔÇÿShove it!ÔÇÖÔÇØ thepittsburghchannel for the video clip Talk about a Flip-Flop. -

Current or upcoming games to look forward to...

Talk about being cryptic The unnamed title is slated for release in fiscal 2006, alongside a new game based on the Tony Hawk franchise that Neversoft will also develop for same fiscal year. "We are very excited about Neversoft's new game, which is not a sports title, and will continue expanding the studio's development resources," Also of note a shareware title Star Wraith 3: Shadows of Orion: Version 1.84 features a new cinematic-style intro and a bunch of tweaks and improvements -
Trial run for terrorism?
LostInSpace replied to LostInSpace's topic in Politics, Religion & Legal etc
I was thinking the same thing at first till I got to this "He was approved for the high-paying pension just last week". He really does not have a motive. Unless he just snapped and is plane crazy. It smells more like the powers that be trying to cloud the issue by laying the blame in a patsy to calm the public fears that this was a terror bomb. Look at the evidence Plastic pipe and ball bearings. Sounds like a terror device to me one that would inflict alot of damage and 42nd street is a hot bed of tourism. -
