Well, the U.S. invaded Grenada today. We have one more year, plus a lame-duck session, that our mad Fearless Leader can indulge his fantasies with our lives and our neighbors' lives. THEN LET'S THROW THE BASTARD OUT!

Quote gnu(I wondered if he was still alive) "AND THEN LET'S THROW THE BASTARD OUT!" I have a better idea. Let's throw the cursing name-callers who don't bother to justify their insults off the net. :-) I just love these narrow minded, paranoid liberal responses. It's odd that I keep getting mail that tells me that all conservatives are narrow minded paranoids. Perhaps gnu is a closet conservative. I notice the knee-jerk defamation never seems to stop. I don't know the story about Granada yet, so I'm not going to either defend (or criticize) this "invasion". I do know that lots (originally 50, now up in the hundreds, of cuban "civilian" advisors <Yeah, sure, civilians with AK47's, anti-aircraft missles, and ground-ground missiles. Civilians, my gnu!> ) have been captured, so at least we weren't there first. I also know that the new "airport" that the USSR (along with Cuba) built just conveniently had runways long enough (and strong enough) for backfire bombers. Even though the width (or so CBS told us) of the runways was marginal for 747's, it was for a "jetport", not bombers. <The bombers don't require the same width. They're just hard to stop.> Congratulations, gnu, on demonstrating the knee jerk, narrow minded, paranoid attitude so typical of the liberal establishment. <I don't argue against the goals, or the avowed intent, but goals are never met, and intent never seems to lead in the right diretion, so> Don't criticize me for the use of the words narrow minded, paranoid, and knee jerk, they've all been used to describe every conservative in existance. In fact, we've been told that all conservatives are, BY defination, sub-human because they're narrow minded and paranoid. I just wanted to point out that your totally uninformed (at least you don't SHOW any information, or act as though you wanted to show any) comments aren't any less narrow minded (after all, you clearly KNOW that anything a conservative does is going to be bad, don't you?) or paranoid (you KNOW that something's going to happen to you because of the conservative menace) than any conservative in the country. I include, for this purpose, such questionably conservative demigogs as Jesse Helms (who knee jerks about liberals just the way you knee jerk about Reagan), Strom (Senate bill two) Thurmond, and Orrin (let's give them all our moral code to live with) Hatch. You, sir, are a liberal demigog.<Am I spelling that right?> If you have information (other than from the village voice, or equivelant), informed discussion, or even idiological comments, make them. If you want to try to push people around with your abusive words then send your abuse to net.dev.null. Hi, John. Sorry to be so rude, but I don't see anyone (at least over the net) being polite to me. -- o O from the pyrolagnic keyboard of ~ rabbit!jj -v-v- \^_^/

We have one more year plus a lame duck session that our leader can continue to oppose leftist thugs who threaten Americans and American interests. THEN LET'S RE-ELECT THE GREAT GUY! <`we' (your audience) don't all agree with you, so why not *flame* in net.flame and *argue* (in a civil and rational manner) in net.politics?>
