When you have a blog, you get all sorts of interesting responses to a post. Take for instance the following comment by a man called "Bob" in regards to my post about Dean a few days back: You boys can wish in one hand and shit in the other but I'll guarantee you that Bush will win in 2004. Your liberal representatives have done such a wonderful job of shooting themselves in the foot trying to find blame in Bush for the past 4 years, it would be inconceivable to get a democrat in the white house in 2004. Perhaps when you boys are a little older you'll understand politics a little better. You might not be quite as naive about what's best for the country as well. Interesting, Bob. I do try to take to heart political advise from anonymous strangers referring to "wish(ing) in one hand and shit(ing) in the other." So elaborate for us, Bob, how is anything Bush has done been what's best for the country? Perhaps it's the hatred felt towards America by even the citizens of countries we considered our closest allies? Or the relaxing of the anti-emission and anti-pollution laws? Maybe it's looking the other way on trillions of dollars in corporate fiscal inpropriety, especially with companies ran by Bush friends like "Kenny Boy" Lay. Or is it the direct deception of our country about the reasons behind going into Iraq? Oh, I know, it's their stance that Clinton "seems a little obsessed with Osama Bin Laden" in their first several months of office - up until 9/11. So tell us, Bob. Teach me and my naive friends with more facts and less colorful phrases. And to the rest of you out there - I put the comments link on for a reason, so feel free and use it, even if you disagree with me. But if you're going to make outright negative-spirited comments rather than meaningful debate, then I'd hope you at least have the cajones to put an email address - a *real* email address (ahem, "Bill") - because at least one of the two of us is willing to participate and not hide behind a contactless (and probably false) name. |
