Re: "He (D-Dubya-I) tells the truth when asked."

The "when asked" bit bothers me. D-Dubya-I should have come clean on this when he announced his run for the presidency. Then, like a mouse on TV last night, all he could do was (a) hide behind his daughters; (b) continuously question the timing of this revelation.

Re: "We should be proud of his ability and strength to just stop in 1986":

I got a problem with this, Frank. I'm highly suspicious of anyone who, all of a sudden, as if touched by an angel, "finds sobriety," "finds God," finds anything after 40 years of hell-raising and immaturity. All of a sudden, everything this person did up till age 40 "doesn't matter." Of course it matters.

The other candidate, Al Gore, never had to "turn around" his life thusly. Think on that. But somehow we think it's more decent for a person to experience a conversion rather than lead a moral life from the get-go. Never figured that one out. Perhaps Bush supporters have listened to too many George Jones records over the years.

Re: "Gore nearly always lies." That is not true and I'm tired of every right-winger on this board trumpeting that statement as if it's fact. Not true. Not true. Not true.
