"Planned Parenthood's Fashion Line"

was a link to PP's page where they were selling a very tacky tshirt

"Economist Says Bush in a Landslide"

was an article talking about the major investment players and who they are looking to win.

"Pelosi Discards a Little More Credibility"

read the thread, you may be a little surprised at the outcome.

"DNC News, or Lack Thereof"

i posted all types of articles about the goings on of the DNC to that thread during the week. there wasn't much news going on at the time as may be noted in the thread title.

"Kerry Changes Mind!!!"

was talking about THK's evolution since being the wife of an R politician.

"Questions About [Michael] Moore's Facts"

michael moore is an asshat. i think HM did a very good job answering the questions. i don't necessarily agree with it all, but HM as usual did a great job.

"John Kerry Flips the Bird"

Kerry flipped a guy off. i pointed out the lack of thinking in the action. just like i thought GWB was stupid for getting caught calling a guy and asshole on a live mike four years ago. when you are running the most important election of your life you should be able to think about the consequences of your actions under a microscope.


so there we go. as i said i support bush over kerry. kerry was in the news a lot during that time frame so there was plenty of fodder publications to pick from. i post and comment on what i see. just like hm and most of the cellarites favor kerry over bush, i wouldn't expect to see them posting a lot of pro-bush articles. but exactly how does my preference for bush over kerry make me a big bad right-winger? (obvious negative connotation) very few people are really far right or far left unless they are running for office and trying to get the support of a large activist base. most of us are pretty close to the middle because we go in different directions on different issues.

do you want to talk issues or do you want to throw around subjective names like right-winger vs liberal? if you just want to throw around names, that is fine, but it does get old after awhile and it doesn't really help us to understand where the other person is coming from, which i think is the point of having the discussions we do around here. i think that most of us, while we don't have our minds changed from what we see in the cellar too often; we do learn by seeing how other cellarites respond to certain issues and questions.

So Kerry was the only one who did anything negative in the past couple months? Everything about Bush is positive? Nope, doesn't fly.

Again, I don't really care what your beliefs are, and I never said being right-leaning makes you a "bad" person. I just don't think you're being honest about your motives in posting the things you do.

ok, fuck it. i don't care anymore. ifyou don't want to consider what i've put out there, then that is ok. i am done.

Lookout, Garnet...if you guys want to flame each other, there's a private message feature you can use to keep your cock-measuring and destruction of an otherwise interesting discussion to a minimum.

yup, thanks for the reminder. i'll go back to my corner now.

i already stated what my position. anti-abortion, but anti-legislation about abortion. and the absolute last thing someone should do to a person is try to make them feel worse about having an abortion. that about covers it.

apologies to all who were forced to read through this BS to get to a reasonable discussion.

Everyone has an agenda of some sort. That's not necessarily a bad thing...it just is.
