(and thank you! )
(one more edit...can you send this to me at werequeen@japan.com ? I want to forward it and all...)
cait
Oh yes, that just looks like something somebody would write on their resume....... *rolls eyes* This is not humorous, it's lame! Nobody writes that stuff on a resume, and I frankly, don't give a crap about the bloody president. "effer"
cait
Bah, sorry folks. It is funny, and ironic and all that. I just had some form of mood swing. But can you blame me? I'm a teenage girl! I appologize for my whorishness.

And what a thing for a noob like me to say *shakes head*
Zesty
Clinton is no angel either. I am not even going to begin to discuss bush w. anyone on this forum.
Sir Maxerpopple
Anyopne who says he did drugs but did not inhale is an idiot. Granted Clinton had ups and downs, more ups I would say.
Zesty
In my personal opinion Clinton was a low-down, treacherous, scum-bag psychopath who shoulda been hung for high treason. laugh.gif We all have our opinions on world leaders.
Sir Maxerpopple
Regardless of the fact he was a democrat, you do have do give him credit for one thing. Warping his messed up genes into one pretty good looking daughter.
laugh.gif
Zesty
My distaste for him is not just because he is democrat. I think he is a blackhearted pandering psycho (who cares nothing about america) and I would have disliked him even if he was republican.

Like I dislike Nixon.
Sir Maxerpopple
The democrat part was a joke laugh.gif

I'm not one, alright, that joke sucked.

Why do you hate Clinton, what do yoiu have pointing towards he cares nothing about America?
gerbilfromhell
it's things like that resume that make my favorite phrase "it's funny cause it's true". (i KNOW it isn't a real resume, but the facts in there are true. which makes it even funnier and a bit more disturbing)


and psycho? just wondering, where did THAT come from?

i know this topic has nothing to do with clinton, but i just have to ask that...
Zesty
I am not getting into a discussing on any presidents with anyone in here unless someone PMs me and is:

1. a libertarian
2. a right winger
3. neither left wing nor right wing
4. an objectivist
5. thinks clinton is an @rse
6. Thinks i am the bee's knees
Sir Maxerpopple
Gerbil, who is psycho here?(wait never mind now I get it)

Zesty, I qualify as a libertarian. although not the norm of that group. But a discussion of presidents past does seem futile, as opposed to current issues now.
Zesty
One of my favorite libertarians is Jay Severin. He has a radio talk show out of Boston. He is a very smart man who can argue anybody to the ground.
Sir Maxerpopple
My favorite right winger is Bill O'Reily, just because sometimes he gets me so aggrivated.
Zesty
I used to like Bill O'reily. On many levels I still like Bill O'reily.

My problem with him is that he will put absolutely anyone on his show just so he can shoot them down.
Sir Maxerpopple
Hate if this is a me too post but I must agree.

Edlover: Sure smile.gif be glad to!

Zesty: I have to agree with Gerbs....where the hell did this whole "clinton was a jerkoff who was terrible for America" thing come from? You live in this country, and you're old enough to have felt the ups and downs that have come from the last two presidents (meaning the current one and the previous one), so how could you say that he did nothing good for America?

I'm not even gonna start an argument, but I just have to say that you're not posting anything on topic here. If you and Sir Max want to get into a Libertarian discussion, please start your own topic about it. (Apologies to all Mods for my pseudo-modding here, but it's entirely skewed from the reasons for this Topic)

Sir Max: thank you for being aware of the realities of our last president wink.gif Yeah he had his bad points, but who doesn't? His good points at least outweighed his bad points, which (shifting back on-topic) our current president could NEVER claim.....the man is evil. Grrrrr....

It does seem like Zesty and I are sparring alot.
Zesty
Goddess of Whee: Like i said, I have a lot of things to say about what Clinton did wrong (and he did a lot of bad stuff intentionally when he was president). However, I am not going to get involved in a discussion in here with anyone about it unless they meet my standards in that list I posted a while back AND it is in the confines of a PM.

Therefore you need not worry about me discussing Clinton any further in this thread. I only mentioned him to make my point that some people like Bush OK but couldn't stand clinton. I would not even bother replying to this message if you truly want the Clinton discussion to come to an end.

Righteous
Must...resist...urge...to blast...Clinton...and...throw bombs and/or Molentolv cocktails...at...Emperor Shrub.

It's reasons like this I'm an anarchist (not the bombs, Shrub's "achievements").
Ocean!
I have many opinions on Goerge Bush, but all I can say is... You(meaning americans, I hate making generilastions) voted for him, you better accept it untill it's election time again. He looks like a monkey, and I won't stop saying it,I don't care if it doesn't make a difference what he looks like.

Ocean!
Sir Maxerpopple
I didn't vote for him. Damn I hate democracy. And this is bad democracy, not even following majority.
Zesty
america is a republic.
Sir Maxerpopple
Quite aware, but a democratic republic. The congress represents the rpublic side, the presidency is much more ademocracy concept. Even in a democracy it is necessary to have someone to make split-second decisions that ould take an assembly too long. This is the job of the president. He is chosen democratically (more or less), hence the term democray in the executive is warranted.

I knew as soon as I posted that that would be brought up. Thank you my sparring partner for answering my thought! laugh.gif
Zesty
your welcome. I try not to be a nuisance w. my reality checks. unsure.gif Although sometimes i think i am
