Many with intellectual sloth are bored quite often, I would imagine.

I have yet to see you, or anyone else prove any allegations false.

AS a matter of fact, where is Scooter Libby? Jack Abramoff, etc?

By the way, very convincing testimony of your "boy" Alberto Gonzales, or "don't you recall" seeing it?

AS you were Dilli, and seem destined to always be....

Yes, he did, but his tendency to always find a way to needle in his anti-left comments is quite annoying.

Oh, and did you mean "n'est-ce pas?"

Au contraire, mon ami......I would suggest rather that such are, in fact, more easily entertained than bored.

As evidence to support my thesis, I would direct the reader to your closing missive:

Dismissed.

Your English is obviously better than my French. Maybe even, "n'est-il pas?" would work.

DiLigras?

As for your annoyance, perhaps it would be better framed as a part of the debate on the issue, rather than as a stand alone post, oui? Otherwise, it seems more like an attempt to disrupt with ad hominem nonsense, than an honest effort to participate in reasonably uncivil discourse, wouldn't you agree?

I mean, if semantics is everything, should appearances not count for something?


As you were.

Forgive my ignorance but who becomes president when one is impeached?


Economic Left/Right: -9.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79

No one.......mere impeachment does not remove the sitting president, otherwise Clinton would have been gone and we would have had Gore as Pres.

Removal requires conviction of the President by the Senate....that's why some said that the Clinton's possession of FBI files on certain Senators was evidence of blackmail and tampering with the outcome.


Carry on.

please... the democratic-controlled congress just handed bush another blank check for iraq - do you seriously think they're going to move to impeach him??? if these gutless wonders can't even bring an end to an unpopular war, there is an equally negligible chance that they'll impeach an unpopular president.
How can you impeach and convict a president without popular support for an impeachment? The Republicans learned the hardway about the limits of unpopular impeachment. Against the will of the American people, the Republican Congress impeached Bill Clinton without a snowball's chance in hell of winning a conviction in the Senate. Where are the votes? For that matter, where are the votes to overturn a presidential veto on war funding? We need Republican defections and they 'aint cooperating at present.

As for the "blank check" in Iraq, the funding actually ends in September, at which time the debate resumes. We'll see how many Republicans still support the president after what Bush himself predicted will be "a difficult summer" in Iraq.

Would this please you, monsieur? J'en suis sûr.

Of course we should of impeached Bush years ago, as soon as he began this war and before he began to strip away our personal freedoms. Bush and his cronies have profited far too much from his near-eight years of presidency, yet the American people stand by as apathetic sheeps, believing that nothing that occurs in Washington has any effect on them.

Ah yes, the defeatist attitude........I would rather contemplate the number of dead Al-Qaeda scum during the interim.....but to each his own.

Really? Are Shiite militias part of "Al Qaeda" now? Has Iran signed a pact with Osama? Evidence please.

Yep.....really.

Why, did you imagine that I would want to wallow in the same miserable trough of defeatist swill as the lefty nancys who wish nothing so fervently as the surrender of America to any who oppose her?

That is quite an imagination you have, if so.

I wonder, are you also able to imagine that Carly Simon only uses one sheet of Charmin per visit to the ladies room?

Evidence? Of what? That you may bring one irrelevancy after another? I suggest that you have entirely succeeded in that endeavor without necessitating any outside intervention from me, pilgrim.

The Sunni and Shiite militias are hardly irrelevant in Iraq; you know, the ones dumping bodies all over Baghdad once again. Al Qaeda is small potatoes in Iraq, sarge.

Nor did I say they were, man of straw.......they are entirely irrelevant, however, to the question of whether or not I may contemplate the numbers of Al-Qaeda dying in Iraq.

Save your pitiful attempts at misdirection for your lefty imbicile friends, pardner.

I would venture a guess that you have little to no idea of the numbers or activities of Al-Qaeda operatives/sympathizers in Iraq now (or at any time since Saddam took power more than thirty years ago) so you will kindly pardon my disregard of your opinion on the matter until such time as you have demonstrated otherwise.

Such demonstration will necessarily involve a bit more than the oft-parroted talking points of our lefty media pundits, so I shall not be suspending respiration in anticipation of your taking on the mission.

That statement, obviously aligned with the more popular view on this thread, seems a bit ironic when followed so closely with your sig line, which one would assume delineates a philosophy to which you aspire.

Perhaps it should instead say, "Always seek a group who stands for what you think is right, especially if it keeps you from standing alone"

As your sig line continues to be a fake quote, the real irony is your attempt to paraphrase someone else's.
