Well, Al, some will find what I posted interesting. But,
silly me, I forgot you and mz the pussy are the "interesting or not" judges.
And, mz the pussy's fav mod,
you enlighten me how I can link to an email, and I will ever so gladly edit it
quick, like a little bunny rabbit.
And, I am sorry it aggravated your little buddy.
I know just once is way, way too many times
for mz the pussy. I'll try ever so hard not to make him cry with
another cut and paste of an email. k ?

Cal, the idea is to post links here, not copy&paste long e-mails or articles.

Everything the NRA e-mails also goes up on its website. I wouldn't be surprised if the e-mail you received actually included a link to the online alert, which can be found here.

1. I hate you, Al.
2. Not really.
3. If you'd find the time to come drive my tractor for a while,
I'd have time to go gallavanting round the net to find an eensy
weensy little link instead.
4. But, I do know what you mean, and my lofty opinion of you hasn't
changed, to be reaffirmed here:
-
But, do you not think that all the anti-Palin articles are negative advertising?
Oh, I'm guilty here and there of just posting an NRA ad alarm or something.... true.
But, I desire to counter the constant cherry picked negative advertising.
For once and for all, serious discussions are great, and most of us would like
more of that.
But, like Heck's simple post about Rush, to see what others had to say, I have
also done the same.
It would be pointless to give my opinion, and the personal attacks start.
If we all called off the nonsensical personal attacks, and started simply letting
others differ in their outlook and opinions, we could actually discuss things constructively.
See? I didn't even make a joke about anybody at the end.

Something worth reading...........

"You cannot bring prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot help small men by tearing down big men.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income.
You cannot further brotherhood of men by inciting class hatred.
You cannot establish security on borrowed money.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away man's initiative and independence.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves."
-- Rev. William J. H. Boetcker*

Trillions in Financial Bailouts: After 2 years, the major Beneficiaries are Banks and Wall Street. What other Proof do you need that we are Focusing on Bailing out the Banking Oligarchy? Foreclosure Filings at All-Time Record High.
Banks, take the blue pill. Public, please take the red pill. If I had to characterize the current economic environment, it would have to consist of two completely different sets of beliefs. On one hand, you have banks and Wall Street receiving massive bailouts from the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve, bailouts of the magnitude that would gear up for a Great Depression and imply that the banking system of our country is insolvent. Then on the other hand, you have Wall Street and the crony banks trying to convince the public that this is a minor recession and all will be well in Q3 and Q4 of 2009. The problem of course is that this is not your typical recession yet the public is being led to believe that all is well while bailouts are being dolled out by the truckload to the wrong locations. The actions we are taking keeps in place the banking oligarchy and sacrifices the public under the guise that this is good medicine for the general economy.
Nothing proves this point better than the current nationwide foreclosure issue:

It was never about the cut and paste,atleast not with me.Creating an internet "bulletin board" to cut and paste without offering any opinion or dialogue isnt the idea behind any forum.
Express an opinion and provide a link if you want but if you feel passionate enough about a particular issue to cut and paste just create a thread about it and state your opinion so we can discuss it rather than free advertising for the heritage foundation,fox news or the nra ,moveon or whoever else you can think of.
Although it is never enough for some on here to discuss an issue rationally because even after the issue is exhausted the cut and paste gang ignore the conversation and continue to pollute the board with their advertisments for their views rather than discussing them which then leads to the personal attacks and all that goes with it.
In some cases, it is much better to get the article without the posters added opinion.

Why post old news??
My opinion is if you agree with the article, why expound more?
I can see if you disagree the adding of commentary, but the posting of something without adding more comment usually means you agree with what was written and posted.

Dan,
How do you live with the Palin articles then? The millions? of Bush/Cheney/Halliburton/etc threads for eight years.
That was fine until now?
Consider the timing.
-
Dan, your political bigotry, as well as Heck's, hurts the board.
You are justifying the continued duplicate threads because you rationalize them
in terms of your partisanship.
Cheney doesn't HAVE to be quiet.
Gore didn't.
Carter never has.
I don't care that Al IS a mod, you shouldn't be so judgemental and critical about
anybody being partisan, when
you can be as partisan, as well as Heck.
But ridiculing somebody because they don't see politics like you do
is childish and uncalled for.
Partisanship is in the eye of the beholder.
But being outraged that Cheney has opinions is
making you look foolish.
-
So is your politically expedient outrage.
You won't find fault with other libs no matter what.
But you'll argue and find fault with non-liberals no matter what.
But you want some serious discussion.
Liberal politics is so often an emotional rollercoaster.
Love/hate/love/hate/love/hate........ oi.
