I voted for libermein.

It doesn't really matter who runs. They will beat Bush in a landslide.

Remember Bush isn't really supposed to be president. . But we are lucky the courst saw the light. I shudder to think having Gore as pres after 9/11. He would be passing the Iraq problem down to the next president just like Clinton.

Yeah, because we know Gore is identical to Clinton.

Come on, even Republicans acknowledge that Gore was, if anything, overzealous in getting involved in stuff. He was furious when Clinton gave the health care issue to Hillary, when it had been one of Gore's pet projects all along. I doubt he'd be passing anything off. Gore was always a very diligent public servant, whether you agree with his positions or not.

I still think he should run in 2004. But I think he's done with the game.

If something goes wrong, nationally or Internationally, there is a risk that antisemitism will rise, rampantly. "The jews" will get the blame. you see even now how people believe in those fictions.
Do you remember Uh Clem's remark about where the loyalties of the US leadership lie? this is exactly the sort of talk I am afraid of.


I am pretty sure that this is the reason why Eli is afraid of it too.

a jew was once the leader of the world's strongest power. But that was the 19th century.

I believe I was misinformed.

"A graduate of Yale University, John Kerry entered the Navy after graduation, becoming a Swift Boat officer, serving on a gunboat in the Mekong Delta in Vietnam. He received a Silver Star, Bronze Star with Combat V, and three awards of the Purple Heart for his service in combat. "

http://www.johnkerry.com/site/PageS...ename=biography

But the main point of my...point, was that he's a veteran, and how it seemed to me that if a President is going to order the nation's youg people into combat, he should have had the experience himself.

Thanks for the correction though.

Given the context of the statement he was responding to, I fail to see anything wrong with adopting a sarcastic tone.

Knowing Frogger as I do, it was undoubtedly meant as irony, especially considering to whom he was responding. Frogger isn't remotely anti-semitic.

EDIT: X-posted with DD. Was it as good for you as it was for me?

Look who I replied to, Ming.

And who I continued the discussion with.

Not to mention the fact that I'm not the one who doesn't want Lieberman to be nominated simply because of his ethnicity/religion.

So take a hike. No reasonable reading of this thread could result in a belief that that was meant as a racist comment.
