"He was a poor student who somehow got into the finest schools. He was a National Guardsman who somehow missed a year of service. He was a failed businessman who somehow was made rich. He was a minority investor who somehow was made managing partner of the Texas Rangers. He was a defeated politician who somehow was made governor. You can hardly blame him for expecting to inherit the White House. "Is Our Children Learning?" examines the public life and public record of George W. Bush and reveals him for who he is: a man who presents the thinnest, weakest, least impressive record in public life of any major party nominee this century; a man who at every critical juncture has been propelled upward by the forces of wealth, privilege, status, and special interests who use his family's name for their private gain."

How did the worst possible example of how to achieve success by hard work and integrity attain the office of the most powerful man in the world?

Are we powerless to stop corporations that machinate the rise to power of their perfect idiot, who happily assists them in destroying our right to live free and healthy, so that they can become even more wealthy and powerful?

How did we let this happen? Will the people ever wake up?

Get this through your Clinton cock loving thick skulls repugs -- We will NEVER get over it!! How dare you admit that you support a dumbass that was not elected to office. You should be ashamed but oh I forgot, you are back stabbing, thieving repugs. Right wing dickheads!

-- Tony Baloney (Fuck you@repugs.com), April 30, 2001.

You got it Tony, the reason these repugs are so ignorant is because they are incredibly fucking stupid.

Where's that Nazi J-boy? I'm sure he will be upset that some people don't worship his hero the moron. He thinks he can force people to like him by crying to the jack-booted thugs like some Nazi ass-kisser!

Last time I checked it was still a free country, and if these idiot bastards think they can just walk all over us they've got another thing coming. They will inherit the earth, SIX FEET DEEP!

ROTFL!!

Again, another example of a stupid fucking repug. How in the world can you suck off a dickless person? If you repugs had brains you would be dangerous but then if you had brains that moron Bush would not be head repug.

Might be a good idea for yall to teach your idiot Democratic brethren how to properly fill out a ballot.

You created your own problems and have no one to blame but yourselves........

Deano

-- Deano (deano@luvthebeach.com), April 30, 2001.

No Deano, you have it wrong.

The GOP hired a private corporation to "purge" voter roles in Florida of perfectly legal voters, condemning them as "felons" when in fact they had committed nothing worse than misdemeanors, as in the case of El Shrubo and our real mastermind, Dickhead Cheney.

Yep, those people in Florida had committed crimes no worse than our corporate goons in the White House. Yet they had their voting privileges illegally stripped from them, just like in a third-world state.

And now we've had our Fourth Amendment rights stripped from us as well. Maybe next week you'll be stopped for no reason by some goon cop and stripped and searched and handcuffed and carted off to jail for no reason.

Yes Deano, YOUR GOP-sponsored justices installed a strongman in office and took away one of our most precious rights.

So go to hell, Deano, and take your fascist-state ignorance with you. You epitomize the blind idiocy of this country in the wake of a full- blown coup d'etat and institution of a new police state.

-- Get a fuckin' clue (idiot@gop.com), April 30, 2001.

Yo 'get a fuckin clue'

Take your own advice shithead. If your fellow party members had half a brain between them, there would have been no problems.

Fascist state?? Jesus Christ, what a moron.......God help you boy.

Deano

-- Deano (deano@luvthebeach.com), April 30, 2001.

Deano - man do you have your head stuck way UP in your ass! Your adherence to your stupid GOP fascist right wing CRAP extols what you repugs are. Fucking dumbasses, just like Georgie. I hope you choke on his shit because we sure are! Poor little follower Deano. Why not do us all a favor and just kill yourself?

-- Tony Baloney (Fuck you@repugs.com), April 30, 2001.

See what I mean? Tony, you illustrate my point PERFECTLY. Thanks dude!! Howzit go?? Once a loser, always a loser. Looks like there's no hope for you and your ilk.

I see you have found the other half of the brain. Next step it learning to use it. I wish you luck as I see you'll need it badly.

Now, be a good boy and leave the adults alone.

Deano

-- Deano (deano@luvthebeach.com), April 30, 2001.

Deano -- just what the hell does that mean anyway? Once a loser always a loser? Your poor neurons are all fired out dumbass. Eat shit and die you fucking repug wannabe.

-- Tony Baloney (Bite me@Deano.com), April 30, 2001.

Tony,

Don't waste your time with Deano, he is as harmless as a pansy. He has a fascination with baseball player's butts, so he's too busy drooling to be a threat to our freedom.

hmmmm....in that light I will quit communicating with Deano, right after I get finished puking! bwaaahaaaa bwaaahaaaa!

Tony Baloney,

Blow me

-- (BoneyMaroney@BU.reunion), April 30, 2001.

Tony - reading comprehension is vital if you want to become someone in our society. If you can't read, you may screw up at the polls. I know, I know, been there done that, huh. Hang in the lil' buddy, you'll get it one day.

"Once a loser, always a loser" is about as simple as it gets my friend. I honestly assumed you would get it. My mistake. But you do illustrate my point perfectly once again.

Leave it to some pussy anon to knock someone who spends countless hours on the ballfield with a bunch of great kids. Sad someone didn't take that time with you.

Other than masturbate and froth at the mouth, what do you do with your free time??

Paul Begala has written several books on politics. I haven't yet read any of them, but [in general], I like Begala as a political pundit in that he has an ability to keep his cool while some of the other pundits in a discussion actually have veins popping out in their anger. He's definitely a progressive [and so am I], but I'd like to read a few of his books before I comment on his research skills.
