Not necessarily. Janet Reno wasn't noticed that much. Not nearly like Gonzo

Re: Republicans Call For Gonzales' Resignation

It's just the Republican criminal apologist's way to bring up the Clinton admin while the Bush admin goes under. There's no comparison between Gonzo and Reno. They just can't admit Gonzo is a liar and a crook.

Re: Republicans Call For Gonzales' Resignation

Sam, funny thing, I was just sitting here wondering where you were at. Hadn't seen you post in a few days. Then, as if by magic, here you are!

Alright, sorry for hijacking the thread. I just wanted to say "howdy" to my "clueless" friend!

Re: Republicans Call For Gonzales' Resignation

I've been reading a lot and posting a little bit, but have been feeling as thought it's fruitless, lately. Some of these folks just have their eyes and ears so tightly shut to what's going on, I'm feeling, what's the point?

But don't worry, I'll get my piss and vinegar back soon Thanks for missing me! I love your posts MT, have I mentioned that lately?

Oh, I've been full enough of piss & vinegar for the both of us lately.

I'm gonna be in the Golden State soon. Fly into Sacramento on April 21, spending a couple of days up in Yreka, looking forward to it. . .

Can you bottle some of that piss and vinegar and send it over?

Northern California - lovely up there, great Mexican restaurant in Eureka, Luna or something similar, from memory. I think they called it the most northernmost Mexican restaurant in the US.

Read my pep talk for lefties again, sam... that should help you focus on those that are actually receptive to your messages...

who cares if the righties can't hear us? I sure as hell don't give a damn if they do or not... you shouldn't either...

This is a bit like a parliament isn't it? Two sides bellowing at each other to make a point to the quiet observers. Quite a bit of fun too

Want some of mine too?

I can understand Sam feeling the way she does though- trying to have a discussion with some of these yahoo's is like trying to communicate with a retarded brick!

What about people who read these forums?
What kind opinion do you think they form?
We should be grateful for our right wing wackos, they are like Archie Bunker, they expose the weakness of the arguments they voice, by establishing themselves as a reliable source of discredited nonsense.
Without them, this would just be people agreeing with each other, it's much better to have someone give voice to the administration's positions because it exposes those positions for what they really are.
