True, HB,
I should have explained that my capital RATS in Democrats means Socialist Dems, post JFK... DemocRATS are politically driven to gain power over We the People at the expense of what is in the best interest of America. In my opinion, Truman, maybe FDR, but definately Truman would by definition,be a Republican today. |

Also, and I know you didn't pick on tw for this Cairo, but I'd love to hear how it's ok for you to use the term "DemocRATS" and it's disrespectful for tw to use "George Jr.?" At least his is descriptive enough to make sense. |
Furthermore, how are your ad hominem attacks ("Jughead") justified? It is okay for you to attack one's character, but you cry foul when you perceive someone else to be doing the same?
Cairo, I think, fairly represents the extremists on the right side of the spectrum. Unfortunately, she's just as dangerous as those on the left side - though in different ways. |

Even as we speak, the reanimated corpse of Harry Truman is stumbling toward you. Filled with a rage that even the power of the grave cannot contain, Harry is coming to rip your lungs out for even suggesting such a thing. You know nothing of Harry Truman. You're not qualified to have an opinion about him. David McCullough wrote an excellent biography about Truman a few years ago. You should read it. |

The Harry Truman I was talking about was the 33<sup><u>rd</u></sup> president of the United States. You know... the one who wanted to nationalize the American steel industry, make the government pay for everyone's health care, and end a railroad strike by drafting all the train crews into the Army. This couldn't possibly be the Harry Truman that you think would be a Republican today, could it? If not, I apologize for my earlier outburst. If so, I stand by everything I said earlier. I would also hasten to add (in an ad hominem sort of way) that you are a mouthbreathing troglodyte, unencumbered by even the most rudimentary understanding of history, and I heartily wish that you'd shut the fuck up. Thank you. |
*applauds hubris boy*
When you do contribute you certainly don't go for half-measures. |

Geeze. I'm certainly no political expert and don't claim to be. That stated, Its frightening to me that even *I* seem to have a better grasp of elementary history and politics than the chattering Cairo and her spouse the alleged "teacher". Scary shit man. Thanks to those who have logged in hours of patient rebuttal to these yahoos. We dont have to agree, just refrain from being so painfully stupid.

Now now, we need Cairo around here; let's not be too quick to bash. I'd say her absolute position from center is right about where tw's is, just in the opposite direction. And it certainly wouldn't be the Cellar without tw, now would it!

I mean, jag and tw seem to go out of their way to look like asses on the left sometimes. Why not cairo for the right? Equal time is a good thing. :) |

DemocRATS is a reference to an ad produced during the 2000 campaign season. The ad, created by the Republican Natl Cmte., scrolled the word "bureaucrats" in such a way that the "RATS" was emphasized and connected with the description of the Democrats' prescription plans. Ds called foul, saying that such dirty politicking made the Rs look bad. Rs said it was unintentional.
