The silence of the right wing, Clinton bashers is deafening. Seems they have little to say about Georgie. Now isn't that nice. *smile*

-- gilda (jess@listbot.com), July 25, 1999.

If They can elect Clinton in '96 They can elect Bush in '00. The appointment of THREE supreme court justices is the biggie. Where's my BUSH2000 sticker?

-- Carlos (riffraff1@cybertime.net), July 25, 1999.

Oh pa-lease. I refuse to defend Bush....but have you 'looked' at the current administration? Have you read anything at all in the past 7 1/2 years, about this national embarrassment?????????????????????????

Don't EVEN go there, it's an ugly, ugly road.

NASTY! :(

I'm having trouble getting the image of VP Gore at the Bhudist temple out of my mind.

Oh, but he did not inhale!

FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Is this what we have sunk to?

I, for one HOPE that he had his fun with Coke, and got over it. Kinda like most of us Boomers who went through the drug infested late 70s early 80s. Yeah, I been there done that, NEXT!

Get a life already.

And Bush's refusal to answer the question is related to Y2K.....how??

-- smfdoc (smfdoc@aol.com), July 25, 1999.

The diff between algore/Clinton and Bush here is that if you say nothing/refuse to answer you don't have to lie. algore/Clinton may "answer" but everything they say is a lie.

Silence is golden. It beats their lies anytime.

-- Jon Johnson (narnia4@usa.net), July 25, 1999.



Oh I get it.

Clinton lies about an affair, let's IMPEACH HIM.

Bush refuses to answer questions about his use of a substance that plenty of Americans are serving 20 years in the slammer for, lets SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG.

Tad hypocritical, wouldn't you say?

Are you an idiot due to environmental issues, or is it a DNA sort of problem?

-- Will continue (farming@home.com), July 25, 1999.

Thanks go out to the Republicans for perfecting the art of bashing a President. Now we are going to see Democrats do it to Bush until November 2000. You reap what you sow.

Wonder if they called him George "Hoover" Walker Bush.

-- Al Gore (boring@but.not scoring), July 25, 1999.


If George's past starts to show more skeletons it might be a good idea to pass him over and start looking for someone else.

Can you imagine what happened to Clinton, happening to Bush. George does not have the ability to deal with this sort of thing well on camera.

I'm voting for Gore because he invented the Internet.

-- GOTHEBORE (GORETHEBORE@GORETHEBORE.com), July 25, 1999.

I'm way off base here, but all of this kinda reminded me about the "Tecumseh Curse". Not sayin' that I believe it or anything, but if I were a bettin' man, the odds would certainly be stacked in my favor, but then again, maybe Reagan broke the so called curse. It kinda makes me wonder what will happen with the next one.

-- 7 Dead & One Wounded (Tecumseh@Curse.com), July 25, 1999.

Who cares if George Jr. sniffed some cocaine? Who cares if he has slept with 1,000 women? Who cares if people in his administration have been murdered or mysteriously killed? Who cares if he hob nobs and entertains communist leaders? Who cares if he sells rooms to sleep in in his governor's mansion? Who cares if he's pals with the Hollywood crowd? Who cares if he's a liar and a cheat? Surely none of us do, do we? Who cares? Let's vote him in, he can't be any worse than what we already have.

-- Whocares? (whocares???@Whocares.com), July 25, 1999.

So Georgie has a powder problem (on videotape...as per the late Barry Seal), well, I guess we will have to see!

When our elected officials decided not to impeach Clinton, then I decided that I would not vote again.

-- Carol (glear@usa.net), July 26, 1999.

Carol,

You're lucky to have the "decide not to vote" option.

In Australia voting is compulsory, you have no choice but to select the candidate you dislike the least!

Still don't understand the relevance of this post to Y2K however, but as a foreigner reading this this board it appears that you folk don't seem to like your elected representatives much, do you?

None are worthy of my vote. Do I vote to dog crap or cat crap? BTW, Jesse Ventura is planning on taking over the third party. Now were talking! New blood, and ex Navy Seal, he talks sense, and he would have my vote. He's a no nonsense guy, I like his politics. He's down to earth!

-- GOJESSEEEEEE (GOJESS@GOJESS.com), July 26, 1999.

Ah yes, Ventura. The thought of an open canawhoopass in the Whitehouse would be appealing. Fine party too! Y2K is about to eat girlieboygore.

Just chewin' gum and gazin' in the mirror......ROTFLOL!

Bush Junior could not cope with a Kennedy winning the popular vote in 2000, that's why his daddy had some old "associates" off him.

Clear as mud - no?

-- Andy (2000EOD@prodigy.net), July 26, 1999.


Who better than someone who's had a drug problem could understand America's problems with drug abuse? As long as he's not STILL doing coke, and is willing to be public with his medical records (unlike SOME CICs), it seems okay w/ me.

On the other hand, it's probably not a good idea to have a President with personal demons. They will be exploited to their fullest by his political enemies, not something we don't need to see repeated again.

Who can blame him.With all those drug connections via his fathers cia cronies,I'll bet he can get some pretty good shit.And unlike clinton,bush most likely will not commit that unforgivable crime of getting caught.we know bush will never admit to anything.He's learned all too well from his father,the junta-man,that the masses are to be manipulated to serve the interests of der bushfuhrer.

-- zoobie (zoobiezoob@yahoo.com), July 26, 1999.

Dan Lassater......remember him? Bill Clinton's best friend. He was sent to jail for DISTRIBUTION of cocaine. And I am to believe that he has'nt had a "whiff" now and then?

Doubt it.

Southside Ed

-- Birds of a feather (flock@together.com), July 26, 1999.


Now see, Southside Ed's post shows that Bush was a much, much nicer man than Clinton. He pardoned six of his very good friends before he left office, and just before Christmas. Now wasn't that a nice present. Looks like Clinton could surely pardon one man for selling a little coke, after all it wasn't like he was a gun runner.

LOL, WC, very witty.
