..and now a message from Republican House Majority Leader, Tom Delay

[j2k4]

For Ken Mehlman part, his homosexuality probably explains it

I never figured you for homophobic...criminal to even mention such things, isn't it?

Though I suppose if you are neither Democrat nor Republican, you are not bound by any of the politically-correct strictures of the left, nor the rhetorical decency of the right...I thought all the Kerry fans learned their lesson when they couldn't resist running their jibs about Dick Cheney's daughter.

Right or wrong, such talk has a way of backfiring, and for that reason, at least, it would seem best to avoid it, especially when the horse in question has not spoken to the issue.

My opinion, anyway.

Everyone has to stop pretending that George Bush is macho. Because plainly, he acts like a girl!

Not a woman. A girl! Not a week goes by when John Kerry isn't attacked because he said something that hurt somebody's feelings. According to Bush spokespeople, Kerry lost the first debate because of his new insult to our allies when he said, "The coalition wasn't genuine. You know, Poland had Lithuania over that night for a debate party, and now they can't look at each other without crying."

All of the attacks on John Kerry involve his thoughtless words. Like when he said the Iraqi prime minister wasn't legitimate. The b*tch! He hurt the troops when he said Iraq was the wrong war at the wrong time! MEN! He hurt the Vietnam vets when he called that war a mistake. He is so not sitting with us at lunch anymore!

He's a girl! George Bush is all - "And another thing about John Kerry: he uses Botox! He spends too much time on his hair and he's two-faced. Flip-flopper!" "And I bet John Kerry didn't even deserve any of those medals. I would have gone to stupid old Vietnam, but I wanted to be a stay-at-home soldier!"

Excuse me, this president isn't resolute. He's on the rag. He stopped having press conferences, which is basically saying, "I'm not talking to you!" He acted all crampy at the debate: "It's hard work!" I kept waiting for him to say, "If you don't like how I do your shirts, then iron them yourself!" He even ran for president like a girl, promising to "restore dignity to the Oval Office." What man gives a rat's ass about restoring an office? A real man thinks the Oval Office lost all its integrity the day Monica Lewinsky stopped coming in there to blow the president.

so what's the crime here?

saying ken is light in the step, suggesting that his "gayness" might make him act like a democrat or that democrats act like fags ?

[Busyman]

That's a joke too.

"Hey you've been such good counsel to me that I want you to join the highest court in the land...even though you ain't neva been a judge."

Cronyism once again. Forget the partisan crap, she ain't friggin' qualified.

SDRAWKCABSSA

Forget the cronyism-what's qualified?

Rehnquist had never been a judge either, B.

As to his reasons for nominating her?

IT'S HIS CHOICE.

If she's not qualified, let the Senate vote her down, right?

If she's not qualified, they'll dope things out, right?

If he's an asshole for nominating her, and she's an asshole because she's worked with/for him, I think you can trust the Democrats to let you know.. all you'll have to do is listen for the noise.

Mmmk. Rehnquist wasn't qualified either.

Actually I haven't heard much noise from the Dems.

I would be very surprised if the Senate votes her down. Repubs seem to have a hive mind these days.
I heard Dick was trying to ease the Repubs by telling them "trust me she's conservative, she's conservative."

As to his reasons...........no shit.

May as well get used to it, then.

Gee, an Evangelical Christian lady, sitting with the Supremes.

Just think...

Well, for starters, until your assertion is confirmed, it is a bit unfair (fairness is important to you, isn't it?) to bandy it about.

I would go so far as to say that if I had ever posted as you have in this thread, I would have been forever tattooed as a typically homophobic Conservative.

Just for starters.

In your case, however, no eyebrows seem to have been raised, and, since you posted these remarks in regard to a Republican (not just any old Republican, either), it is unlikely to gain note from any but yours truly.

Nothing new, there...

Gee, an Evangelical Christian lady, sitting with the Supremes.

Just think...

Has there ever been a non Christian or non believer supreme ? I ask this because of the accusation that the supreme court is hostile to religion or at least Christianity.

Not sure, but apparently she wears it on her sleeve, although this need not affect her work-product.

Thing is I don't see homosexuality as "immoral" even though it's definitely not a pastime I would partake of. It really doesn't matter if he is or not. If I had said his heterosexuality makes him act like a democrat it would be just as unconfirmed. But seeing as he supports laws that will actively deny equal rights to this group I say tough luck Kenny boy, true or not it's funny as hell and you are fair game.
I am for equality for all consenting adults even if I find their choice distasteful. I have never claimed to be a member of the "politically correct" team.(bunch of wimpy Quiche eaters)

I would go so far as to say that if I had ever posted as you have in this thread, I would have been forever tattooed as a typically homophobic Conservative.

Not by me, probably because I know a little about your views. I do however find it interesting that you used typically homophobic to describe conservatives :Freudian:

I hear John Kerry spends an unnatural time in the bathroom if that will make you feel any better

Would you prefer it if it did?

Doesn't matter either way, everyone wants a judge that reflects their own views. All this about the only thing that matters is "are they qualified" is rot.

I honestly have never heard anybody own up to even the least egregious political-correctness.

The term is always applied with derision, especially by those who practice it the most.

I meant to put that descriptive properly in quotes.

My bad.

I've heard something similar, though without the caveat that his "unnatural" activities are practiced anywhere in particular.

He is apparently lacking in inhibition relative to physical location.
