There's only one person in this newsgroup (and in this particular exchange) who routinely excoriates and vilifies American military veterans......and it ain't me. Ahhhh, so that's what's in your craw. Unnecessarily so, I might add. I think that Max Cleland is a hero. His service in Vietnam show his heroism. He truly earned all of his medals, and paid a high price because of someone's mistake. However, he did not earn the Purple Heart. As horrific as his wounds were, they were not caused by the enemy. Therefore his listing of the PH and wearing it was wrong. It was wrong when he did it and it is still wrong. You do not wear awards/medals you have not earned. It is a no-no, and Cleland knows that. John Kerry remains a phony. Sorry, but anyone that goes to the Paris peace talks and sides with the enemy is not my hero. And, anyone with an income of $300,000.00 + a year who gives but $300 to charity is still not my hero. Davey |

Oh Mr. Miller, you should never have come to my aid, as the hornswagglin' bilge rat noS know shame. Eerie-gardless, the buck-an-ear warmonger had me dead to rites. Unfortunately, given an easy broadside his focus, aim, and shot went askew, much as his political tirades due. Apparently, his grog blossomed snout has further blurred his myopic outlook on life. Verily, the pedantic idiot, without, education should have emphasized my misspelling of the word "nose." Sadly, his sweetness is never happy, lest he be hanging the jib or toting the hempen halter. Mr. Miller came to your aid because he thought you needed it, idiot. Now, go study. The janitors union will have a test after Turkey Day. |

I like that you believe that.....assuming you do, it's hard to tell with a compulsive liar. Davey (sticks and stones and all that other stuff....) One thing that must be obvious to anyone who has been here a while is that you have no idea whatsoever what hurts you. I like that, too. g. |

Now, I am neither for nor against anyone's plan...I feel things would be better served by just placing a 'cap' on the profits .. we ran a small town little grocery store for years at 12% mark up... Anyhow, when Ross was commenting about Health Care he said, NOT to implement it nation wide...try it first! The only problem is if this program doesn't work, now what... john ... who got home from New Orleans and ordered a case of CDM coffee... Glad you enjoyed it so much. IAC, this whole thing is getting well beyond the standard DC Follies kinda thing. FWIW, I don't see any way the Fed can legally try it "locally" rather than nationwide, even as a "test." TC, R |
