By making this political. Just because it doesn't include some references to the war in Iraq, he nays it.
"six resolution paragraphs establishing Sept. 11 as a day of remembrance, extending sympathies to families of victims who died and honoring those who have fought in Afghanistan and Iraq."
He can't even support that. That is a slap in the face to the families of 9/11 victims and the families of soldiers.
He has to make it political.
Congressman Dennis Kucinich has just announced that he will begin holding new hearings into 9/11 beginning in September because "the Commission Final Report... never resolved certain conflicts." '9/11 PRESS FOR TRUTH' details those conflicts like no other movie has, featuring five members of the 9/11 Family Steering Committee (the small group of victim's relatives who forced the creation of the 9/11 Commission), who reveal for the first time in the movie that "70% of our questions" were not answered by the Final Report.

Oh, excuse me for calling people out when they say stupid and/or just plain wrong statements. I don't care if they are "hyperbole."

MrsSpringsteen said:Thompson, in his first campaign stop in South Carolina, told a crowd of about 500 Republicans yesterday that he gained his values from ``sitting around the kitchen table'' with his parents and ``the good Church of Christ.''

Sept. 11 (Bloomberg) -- Republican presidential contender Fred Thompson, who has based his campaign on appealing to conservative voters, said he isn't a regular churchgoer and doesn't plan to speak about his religion on the stump.

does this stuff really fly with you? i mean, do you believe it? do you believe Fred? do you believe that you can take a boy out of Tennessee and have him go off and act in a bunch of movies and fuck a whole bunch of women and go to DC and be in the Senate and fuck a whole bunch of women and not do anything for 8 years but fuck a whole bunch of women and that he's still just a regular guy from Tennessee? do fuzzy homilies like these resonate with you? do you think homespun knowledge is better than what you might learn in a junior year political science seminar?

it worked for Clinton
Irvine511 said:
erm, how?
other than he being a child from a broken marriage with an abusive alcoholic father and was pretty poor growing up but became the president of the united states and is the living embodiment that, yes, the meritocracy just might still be working?
but, see, beyond that, i don't care about that stuff, or being the son of a meeeelworker.
see, that seems legit. it's these "homespun" narratives that i find so weird.
I don't care if this was a "joke," it's not appropriate at all.diamond said:And based on your penchant for promiscuity I would encourge Memphis to keep you on a very short leash.

Here's the difference on why consevatives gravitate to Fred and not Bill.
Freddy has had a sorid past, made amends and corrected his life, now has a beautiful wife that adores him.
VS
Bill having a sorid past pre 1992 promising to correct it to the country and wife on 60 minutes and then getting busted again and again, along with other allegations and to this day he claims to be a victim.
Huge difference between the 2 men.
Lastly until you Irvine realize that neither Freddy or Mitt is running for Christian in Chief nor Mormon in Chief will you be able to reconcile this.
And based on your penchant for promiscuity I would encourge Memphis to keep you on a very short leash.

I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of Al Qaeda.

MrsSpringsteen said:"After September 11th, after witnessing the carnage and destruction, the dust and the tears, I supported this administration's pledge to hunt down and root out those who would slaughter innocents in the name of intolerance, and I would willingly take up arms myself to prevent such tragedy from happening again. I don't oppose all wars. And I know that in this crowd today, there is no shortage of patriots, or of patriotism.
