Cheyney Shooting: Coverup? (Page 2)

Without quoting three different posts, I'll simply say that you're off base Gullah.  I've explained why I used the example that I did, and it had nothing to do with a political argument.

It's like pressing a freaking button when you mention a name or topic, and people just go off regardless of the actual conversation at hand or point being made.  And that goes for both sides of the political spectrum. 

No way buddy, it's my base and I'll say when I'm off of it. Now, off my rocker...yes, but off base ...no. Derek I'm saying that you can't accuse one and not the other and then claim to be impartial or fair handed.
 It's easy, be of sound character, and then compare them all to your standard. Make no exceptions for political affiliation. In that way you can discern a greater portion of the truth.

As examples...Clinton was an adulterer, so was Bush senior. W's an alcoholic. We wouldn't let an alcoholic run our kids daycare but we'll elect one POTUS. Teddy was an irresponsible drunk whose actions killed a young woman. Laura Bush was a fast driving party girl whose actions killed a young man. Hillary's a  .... well I can't compare that to anyone right off but give me a while.

Gullah,

You need to petition Ron to change your title from 'Elite Veteran' to 'Elite Cracker'.  Just 'cause.

Just read a report that says Cheyney is praying for his victim, as we all should be doing. I would also imagine that the VP has been concerned and praying for his friend since this happened. Why he didn't come out in this manner sooner only Rove could know.

The party of self responsibility sure spends a lot of time ducking answers and blaming others. They always come off better when they stop the charades and simply respond as adults. Looking forward to the day when Helen Thomas kicks Scott McClellan's fat ass.

Lets all hope this gent recovers, returns to his family, and the VP gets off his own petard and comes off as the concerned friend .

That's a pretty sweeping statement.  I suppose you are the one exception of course?

LMAO, boy have I been waiting patiently. Wait .....let me get my whistle and striped shirt.

Reaaadddyyyy.......fights on!!!!

Ah yes, name-calling, a sure sign of an even tempered sharing of thoughts betwixt sides of differing views.  Did you even go to drudgereport.com before posting that?  It has been and continues to be one of the top stories on the site all day today.  Including a link to an article where he could face charges if the man dies (he had a heart attack and was is back in intensive care, this was also linked on the website).  By all means, blast away, but at least check your sources...

Heh.  Okay. 

I'm registered as  Dem, but I despise politicians from both parties who play partisan politics.  One of the few people I respect in gov't is McCain.   

I think a two party system sucks.  It only encourages the two parties to work against each other to try to gain the majority.  If we had say 3 strong parties, it would force cooperation between parties, rather than the brinksmanship currently borne out.  But that's just my opinion.  I'm open to other ideas on how to resolve the polarization of US politics, but the cynic in me only sees it getting worse.  :\

There was no name calling. I simply stated a known fact. Limbaugh is a drug addled gas bag. and as I asked "where is Drudge?" well you answered that. Without reading Drudge's report has he accused Cheyney of anything or of acting with malice? You know, the sort of things he accused the Clinton's of when a friend of theirs committed suicide.

btw I did say it was just my opinion, I could be wrong..... not likely, but could be. (tic)

Au Contrere mon frere. Re: Letterman appearence many years ago when Limbaugh himself admitted to being a "bag of gas".

Whatcha got against the integrity of Time's reporting? 

Bwaaaaaaaaahahahahahhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ok ok ok
A blonde, a rabbi and a duck walk in a bar, the bartender looks up and says "hey does this look like a joke to you".*

Now that's a joke.

Isn't that the point of a cover up?

BUt really, I don't think anything is really being covered up. But the manner in which they handled this and other events makes it *seem* like they have something to hide.

I think this is why the press is reacting so strongly to this event: they are sick and tired of the White House withholding information from them.

I was actually refering to the line...

when I was talking about the name calling.  And is it really so wrong to expect there to be some right-leaning and some left-leaning journalists.  It's just a fact of life.  There are plenty of journalists trashing the Bush administration.  So what if a few don't.  When the pendulum swings the other way the right-leaner will be ready to trash the administration and the leftists will be there to say it's not as bad as Bush.
