I have read several arguements in this long thread dealing with deficits 
and who is responsible for them.  Not exactly Dan Quayle related, except 
casually, but.... 
Houston Post, January 30 1992
Bush hopes $1.52 trillion budget will ease gloom.
  Plan would hike deficit to $400 billion dollars.
 Prezident Bush Unveiled a $1.52 trillion budgeton Wednesday.......
 The federal deficit would rise to about $400 billion, half again as 
large as last years record $268 Billion.  Bush urged Congress "to lay 
aside partinsanship" and speedily enact his spending plan in order to get 
"the economy moving again."
........................................................................
This Plan it should be noted was put together by Bush and his advisors 
without the input of the Congress at Large, the Democrats, the liberals 
or Clinton.  The $399 billion deficit estimated for 1993 is about $6000
for every man, women, and child in the U.S.  The $131 billion rise in 
defict spending from $268 billion to $399 billion is abot $524 for each 
man, women , and child.  Then of course 3 months later Bush got on the 
balanced budget bandwagon.  I have seen a few TV ads lately where Bush 
calls himself the man who can balance the budget. Spend, Spend, Spend, 
Spend.  I guess our fairy godmothers will take care of the tax part.
.......................................................................
All stout Republicans out there may flame me at will.  I just want to 
know.  What makes a Republican think Bush is competent after he has done 
something like this? 
......................................................................
Part 2
  Bush and Quayle are going to lose.  What do you suppose Danny does 
then?  What's he good for?

I definitely wouldn't say Bush shows indifference to Broccoli, unless

The point is Quayl is being vauge.  The cynical basis for "Family Values"
being attacked is that scape-goats can be implied -- whitch hunts can be
commenced.

A politician named McArthy made a few accusations like this about 40 years 
ago.  I pray that the American Public (No flames, please) has matured
beyond this red-baiting by now.

This is a blatant generalization.  The media may be market driven,

of it being partisan falls into the catagory of red-baiting.

Hollywood pumps out alot of fiction.  Maybe once again the American

Actually, she probably did try to abort him (albeit unsuccessfully) and
we are enjoing the result now. You see Dan's head could not be pulled
out of his anal cavity and therefore he refused to fit in the toilet
bowl. But she tried.

Don't laugh too hard. I'm sure at this point Conservatives would prefer
that alternative to having Bush as the Republican standard bearer. Hell,
some of them even seem to prefer Quayle over Bush so we know they can't
really care if the President is a mindless moron.

Heresy!

By the way, has anyone found a George Kelischek ocarina out there?  I
was hiking in the Narrows at Zion National Park and wearing it around my
neck, when I lost my balance and it fell off and floated away in the
current.  My main consolation is that now I can tell people, "I lost it
in the Virgin River."

[By the way, this particular ocarina is a whistle with a closed end made
of mahogany.  It has a blue and green enamel disk on the front and
finger holes on the back, and it was on a black string.]

Our Boy has used this rhetorical technique throughout his meager career
as Penultimate-Potatoe-Head. I was outraged when Reagan said that he
wore "the scorn of the ACLU like a badge of honor" but merely cynically
amused when Dannikins repeated the phrase recently. This shows that he
and his speechwriters are true conservatives; they believe in the
tried-and-true (and plagiarized).

If I mis-represent, it is because I am confused.

I agree with you that BB is probably against the lunatic Republican platform
when it comes to the abortion question but she has *not* said so in public.
When asked about her own recent comments that have drawn so much attention,
she said they did not constitute a position on the choice issue.  When told
by a reporter that many people -- possibly including you -- were taking her
comments as a _de_facto_ statement of a pro-choice position, all she said was
one word: "Really?"

It's cute, but it ain't pro-choice.


>Of course, this straight talking from the First Lady could just
>be a ruse to confuse you.

If so, it's working.  After all, look what just happened.  I named five
people and one political party, and asked for an explanation of some very
surreal circumstances they have created.  Your response was to pick up
on one of the five names and to ignore the larger political farce.  I don't
blame you, because I don't think anyone could have done better.

Actually, like most people, I have no desire to pick a fight with BB.
She's a decent human being.  Her one mistake, as far as I'm concerned,
was her choice of mate: she should have stuck to the human species.

   Well, for men it can be.  Perhaphs we should lobby the people who publish
those "asian bride" catalogues to start publishing a complementary product for
women.  Then the Republicans can get the familly values at a discount.  Hey!
That's it!  Unmarried mothers can apply to the federal government to purchace
them a hard working groom from a poor third world country (as long as racial
lines are not crossed).  Is that a Republican solution or what (this year, I
mean)?
