You sounding like a liberal, Rip. All those privates hanging out is too liberal!

Sure - neuter affirmative action - but don't touch the statues privates!

Ashcroft had to resign so he can start preparing his 2008 Presidential campaign.

Ya can hardly do justice in a run for President when you are on the cabinet.

First act of President Ashcrofts adminstration will be to outlaw liberals, pinkos and commies.

It just blows my mind. If you took out the bigots and the evangelical crowd (those folks who don't like privates), Bush wouldn't have been reelected. And Bush was very vague on his stand on privates. Hope it wasn't pandering.

I guess we'll have to see who replaces him. I'm surprised because I believe Bush is socially conservative in RL (his religion is not the usual political act) and that he was not too far out of line with Ashcroft (hell, he appointed the guy in the first place).

Will the next person be more "moderate" or just more stealthy and publicly acceptable?

BTW - the Supreme court thing... probably not but this administration can be full of surprises. I can't see him making it through the approval process though.

Issue by issue. Lets not bring up the racist AA.

I admire people who are deeply religious, but don't preach it to me, and covering up art is a nutcase in disguise.

The patriot act went too far. I just get the feeling alot of people forgot just exactly who voted that into place.

Ashcroft needed to go. He was a prime example of exploitation of loopholes and an actual disregard for laws. What really amazes me here is the people that say "I'm amazed conservatives don't like this guy."

Next thing you know the same people will be telling us what a wonderful person Janet Reno was (in comparison to ashcroft) and actually expect people to believe they aren't spewing rhetoric.

Who vetoed the patriot act? - oh thats right- nobody.

AKS\/\/ulfe · « **Reply #22 on:** November 09, 2004, 08:20:16 PM »

vetoed, voted... both the same thing.

Just the o and e are misplaced and there's an extra e.

What was the vote on the patriot act... do you remember? How did Kerry vote on that btw?

Ok, this is a separate post. Affirmative action is racist? Now let me get this straight, the government SHOULD promote spiritualism, by promoting prayer in schools. W'eve done established NOBODY can keep another from praying silently anywhere at anytime. So the need for a moment of silence can only be to PROMOTE spiritualism.

But you don't think the government should promote trade with the race that was enslaved for 300 years in America?

Promote spiritualism but not equality - got it - i think...

(oh and of course legalized privates. I'm still working out these "traditional values" we live under)

Please, Mini.

I've never heard even close to that sentiment here. The closest I've heard to that is my post right here in this thread, which was not "amazed" (however much that word lends yer post some kinda oomph), but merely curious.

No drama, was just asking.

TweetyBird · « **Reply #27 on:** November 09, 2004, 09:00:53 PM »

I don't think anyone is truly amazed either. Ashcroft and Bush only fall under this thing called "traditional values" which is a paper tiger. It has absolutely no substance (and it can be easily proven to have none). Its a false idol, a vehicle to focus human's knack for denial.

Its really natural for a human sitting in a dump to convince himself its hilly landscape and the rats are hedge hogs.

America is far from a dump, but it has problems. Its a human response to deny them rather than expend the effort to fix them.

Ashcroft is the single most responsible person for defending the United States against another AQ attack in the months and years since 9/11! (God bless the Patriot act! may the bastards run and hide). To suggest otherwise just lifts any burden of proof that you are an idiot and a moron......of which there are an ignorant fistfull of here on this bsb (most are europukes and canadipukes, with a few australiapukes and new zealanderpukes thrown in for good measure.... but whats really detestable is the scrotal sack full of ameripukes, oooh the eeevilness).

Ashcroft is an american hero.

When my opinion is the opposite of Eagler and Yeager, I know I'm on the up side of sanity.
