State of the Union bets

What's your take on Hoyer? I've only lived in MD since Christmas week so I don't know squat about the guy.

He's okay but he bangs with the gang - votes right with his party almost every single time and bashes the Republicans whether they deserve it or not. What scotched it for me was when he voted "not guilty" for Clinton on a charge that Clinton *admitted* he was guilty of (perjury).

A decided partisan, but not a flaming liberal.

If that's the case than he's definitely part of the bureaucratic idiocy in Washington, voting with the party verse what is right for the people makes me want to b!tch slap at lease half the House of Representatives.

I've mentioned this before, but my sentiment towards Hoyer will be forever tainted by the fact that he used my high school graduation as an opportunity to campaign for votes rather than give advice and instruction for new graduates.

He stood right in line with the Republicans during the Terri Schaivo debacle - when they passed the law to keep her "alive."

Did you even READ what you posted to me?

Forestal has this endearing habit of posting quotes which unerringly disprove his point. It comes from an inability to finish reading the whole thing beyond the money-shot one liner that he thinks (no, wait, he doesn't think) that he believes proves his point. Must be a product of some of the liberal public schools around here.

Hunting with Dickless Cheney?? Great! Sign me up. My shotgun is getting cold these days. I could use some practice with the geese.

Since you're fuken clueless on most security related issues of this country, I have signed you up for an Executive level meeting with Vice President Dick Cheney, he'll break it down for you on the hunting trip...

I win!!!

I KNEW he couldn't resist tying Iraq with 9/11 for some of the dumber population yet again!!!

And out of chaos in Iraq would emerge an emboldened enemy with new safe havens, new recruits, new resources, and an even greater determination to harm America. To allow this to happen would be to ignore the lessons of September the 11th and invite tragedy.​

Tie Iraq to 9-11? You really had to stretch it this time to make your tortured point. You're really slipping here.

Forestal… You’re kidding right? You are showing your lack of comprehension. Bush isn’t trying to tie 911 to Iraq just because he mentions them in the same sentence.

Allow me to assist you here… During the 90s our government ignored the al Qaeda threat. This ignorance led to the 911 attacks. Now, by demanding the cut-and-run strategy, we are ignoring the probability that al Qaeda would take a foothold in Iraq, utilize the oil resources, and recruit their people to become bigger and stronger than before. We cannot revert back to the thinking of the 90s by pretending the threat doesn’t exist and that this threat doesn’t have a vested interest in Iraq.

Bush is not, nor has he ever said Iraq (Saddam that is) had anything to do with 911. But you would love to fabricate anything to make that point wouldn’t you?
