Just read a review of Bernard Goldberg's book, "100 People Who Are Screwing Up America, and Al Franken is #37"; sounds like Mr. Goldberg's words are ringing true.

That reminds me, I'm reading bits of Zell Miller's "Deficit of Decency" as I can get time to do it, and I have to say I've given him several mental standing ovations so far. I admire his courage and the strength of his faith. Georgia is lucky to have such a man.

I think he's cool. He must have b@lls of steel to show up at last year's Republican National Convention.
"And no pair has been more wrong, more loudly, more often than the two Senators from Massachusetts, Ted Kennedy and John Kerry. ... This is -- This is the man who wants to be the Commander in Chief of our U.S. Armed Forces?! U.S. forces armed with what? Spitballs?!" :killingme

"In their [Democrats] warped way of thinking America is the problem, not the solution. They don't believe there's any real danger in the world except that which America brings upon itself through our clumsy and misguided foreign policy." :patriot:

I love how Jimmy Carter is number 7 in that top 100...yeah the man who started Habitat for Humanity is really, really screwing America up.

Did you know the KKK does public services for poor children? I guess that means they aren't screwing up America either. Of course, its only white children.

I ran over a puppy earlier, but don't worry, I ate Subway.

Just remember, doing a good thing doesn't necessarily negate all the bad things you did.

However, I don't think I would rank Jimmy Carter like that either. I just don't want you leaning on false logic like that.

Ya'll know this, but J. Kerry never would release his service records during the time he was running for President, for fear there'd be something in them that could shine a bad light on him.

But, now he has the unmitigated gall to demand candidate Judge Roberts release all of his court records/documents/memos on behalf of the government by the White House. Just so he and his fellow democrats can sift through those files for ammunition as to why he shouldn't be appointed to the Supreme Court?

Talk about flip-flopping! :lol:

His habitat for Humanity work shows that he is a great person, but he was a lousy president, and his behind the scenes politicizing undermines what the country is trying to accomplish in many countries. He was a lousy president, and an even worse former president!

What I want to know is why Kerry? Sure people know him but is he popular enough among democrats? 1) He lost! 2) It's really hypocritical to demand the release of records when he himself wouldn't. I often wonder what these politicians are thinking and if they even are.

He can't build enough houses to cancel out the screw-ups he did as a President and the meddling in foreign affairs he has done since. Maybe Jimmy Carter shouldn't be #7 but he should be on the list. I am curious about how big of a following Al Franken actually has. He isn't worth the ink it takes to be on any list.

Don't count me as a Carter lover or hater I just don't think it makes sense to include his past doings since it was phrased screwing up.

Exactly Triggerfish...Jimmy Carter is a great person and he currently has NO power to "screw" things up; too good to have ever been involved in Washington politics if you ask me.

Or maybe not the right man for the times. Same thing happened to General Grant when he was elected, poor guy ended up getting the bad end of the barrel. I believe he died of lung cancer and was tricked into giving up all of his assets, Samuel L. Clemens helped with his biography while he was suffering.

Today, tomorrow, Jimmy Carter and Jessee Jackson will both do their best to prove the country is doing the wrong thing. They remind me of each other except Jackson is too high and mighty to pound a nail.

It's gonna get interesting now:

Roberts' 'sensitive' papers withheld / Charles Hurt
The Bush administration does not plan to surrender all of federal Judge John G. Roberts Jr.'s papers from when he was deputy solicitor general, Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales said yesterday. (Nation/Politics)

Hey, RRaley, check your facts some time.

You are too dependent upon the undependable Democrat talking-points. Show some independence and check your facts.
