sorry I can't hang around and slur and insult you with my bigoted, hateful, irrational, Christian, right-wing "cheesy high school debate tactics"

Oh, that's ok Mr. K, I can always recycle some old slurs from you.

Dan, no, what I was pointing out that you and bubba use the same "debate" tactics - loud, obnoxious, bombastic harangue.

If I say that worms live in the ground, you and bubba argue that Republicans are all dirty old men.

I say that worms provide a useful purpose in nature. You and bubba say Judge Starr is criminally insane.

If I mention worms are a source of food for birds, you rant about how evil Ronald Reagan was.

If I change the subject and say that cows produce milk, you start talking about Dan Burton and Henry Hyde and Tom Delay.

If I somehow were to attempt to pin you down on a topic, you'd accuse me of cheesy high school debate tactics.

When that doesn't work, you get more and more strident in your posting, just as Carville does as he shouts over everyone at a hundred words per second and starts spitting all over the place.

Hardly contributes to the edification of the reader or listener.


Would you care to try to count edifying posts around here? I have a one day summary from jlallen laying around from a couple days ago, you wouldn't have anything to say to him/her, would you? In case you missed it,

Heaven forbid anyone should make a "moral judgment". JLA

Who me, watch your terminology. "Party hats" are condoms for the Clintonistas!! JLA

Not an artful dodge. Not within your intellectual capacity as I suspected. JLA

How about the money Bubba just wasted on his little China kow tow excursion? I guess if you are wasting the money on the PC liberal pet projects, its OK. JLA

Very well said. Time for dougjn to label you as an extremist. Let me welcome you to the club. <ggg> JLA

I don't think so Mr. Barry. Most people still think that perjury, obstruction, etc. ARE a big deal and most are smart enough to know this ain't about sex. JLA

Unfortunately, you people have real trouble grasping the obvious. Hopefully in time even a Clinton apologist such as yourself will begin to understand it. I'm taking the same approach you take with small children and pets. Repetition seems to do the trick eventually. JLA

Funny, I don't hear any cogent counterargument? What do you take issue with?

Character doesn't matter?

Perjury, etc. no big deal?

Let's see the refutation Einstein. You are a pathetic excuse for a human. JLA

It was no longer "private" once it became the subject of a lawsuit and once he put his hand on that Bible and swore to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The rest of your argument is just plain BS. JLA

As I suspected, you are an intellectual coward as well. JLA

I will issue you the same challenge I issued Mr. Schuh. Refute the post point by point. I doubt you can but make a try. JLA

PS You will have company as he weasled out as well.

No, there are not so many of these people. The impeachment hearings will be educational and they will move public opinion against Clinton just as happened in Watergate. JLA

Not in my experience. JLA


As to the "no-defense defense", that evasive testimony in a politically motivated moribund civil suit constitutes an impeachable offense, whether or not it would ever be taken to court in any other context, well, it seems more substantial than most of the stuff that gets thrown out here. I'm sure you can't wait for the "Who killed Vince Foster" debate to be revived in the House. Just because the grand inquisitor Ken Starr couldn't dig up anything worth mentioning there, or on filegate, or travelgate, or Whitewater, or who knows what else, doesn't mean it's not worth another try.

As for the Christian contingent, if someone can explain to me how comparing Clinton to Caligula fits into some reasonable formulation of Christianity, I'll read respectively. Seems like a stretch to me.
