OK, John, why don't you post the relevant sections of that report.  Namely those
that blame the U.S. for killing 250,000 innocent people.  We're still waiting,
you fraud, but all we've gotten from you is noise and language.

This is a little touchy as the Bush Administration probably broke
several laws to provide loans to the Iraqis and have refused to
appoint a special prosecutor to investigate these possibilities. 
Source: William Saffire, honest Republican collumnist. Fortunately a 
Federal judge has thrown out a plea bargain with an Atlanta banker who 
is the first defendant in this case. Unfortunately, it will come too late
to impact voters' choices, but don't be surprised to find several
high ranking Bush administration officials indicted in the next
4 years. Obstruction of Justice is not a Good Thing for an
ex-president to have on his resume.

Let's face facts.  Neither the Quayles nor the Gores are exactly open 
handed when it comes to charities.  But, how much is enough?  Well,
historically, good Xians like the Gores and the Quayles were expected to 
tithe 10%, a figure derived from the Bible.  Both Families claim to be 
Church going Christians. Therefore they both fall short.  Especially the 
Quayles.  After all, when Reagan cut the tax rate on the top 20% 
drastically, He was also touting the values of Voluntarism Vs. Big 
Government.  And he pointdly stated more than once that the Churches 
would be able to pick up any slack from slashing the "Saftey Net" as was 
in vogue during the early 80's.  Dan was a 2 term Republican Congressman 
and a Senator and now VP.  He should be VERY generous to assert 
leadership in a world where Voluntarism is touted as being ever so much 
better and effecient then them big bad ol' socialist Government handouts.
Dan Quayle falls short 7% by my rough reconning.  Gore is worse.
  This thread started with a report from National Review, William F. 
Butthole's Rag.  I wonder what Percentage the editors and Uncle Bill

Gingrich, Patrick Buchanan, Et al.  We should start a list and dun those 
bible thumpin right wingers that fall below the Bible ordained 10%.
  How many of you Neo-conservative-gonna-vote-for-Bush-even-if-it-ruins-us

   The National Public Telecomputing Network (NPTN), is pleased to 
announce a new service for the duration of Campaign '92.

   We are teaming-up with the American Cybercasting Corporation to 
provide special Campaign '92 newsgroups to Internet hosts anywhere 
in the world--for FREE.

   These will be special moderated newsgroups containing the full-
text of the position papers, speeches, press releases, fact 
sheets, (and anything else we can obtain) from the campaigns of 
the REPUBLICAN, DEMOCRAT, and LIBERTARIAN parties.  Each item will 
be carried complete and un-cut, and each is obtained directly from 
official sources within the respective campaigns.  (These are NOT 
discussion groups--you can get that in alt.politics.<whatever>.  
They are moderated newsgroups containing pure campaign information 
for your study and analysis.  You can argue about it somewhere 
else.)

   These special newsgroups will be delivered directly to your
host system by ACC.  The value is obvious for political science 
classes, students, faculty, staff, and anyone else who wants the
FULL story and not just sound-bites and factoids.

   To obtain the newsgroups, have some decision-maker at your 
computing center send an e.mail message to: usa@americast.com 
and all will be made manifest by return e.mail.  The message
MUST contain the name, title, and institution of the person
making the request somewhere in it.

   To repeat, there is no charge to receive this service from
American Cybercasting (although donations to NPTN will be 
gratefully accepted).

     It sure was nice of that pundit of politics, Homer

only count up to eight (he has three fingers and a thumb on

count up to (2^8 - 1) or 255.  How did he account for the
remaining 52?

Nor is the New Republic a bastion of liberalism, unless you're planted
so far to the right than anything left of the NR or the Washington
Times is considered liberal.  Consider that TNR (yes, they almost have
the same initials, but by that criteria The Newark Reporter should get
equal time :-) has a fairly pro-Bush editor, had an author rag on NPR
for being too leftist recently, and took a hawkish stance during the
Gulf War (certainly not the epitome of McGovernism, which is perhaps
how you define liberalism).  Perhaps more tellingly, consider the
advertisement.  Cato Institute had a full page spread selling its
books.  There was a small one for t-shirts that said, "Dumb Bush:
Reagan '92".  Makes you go hmmm...

Posting the Nation would be closer to equal time.

That's not the case in Austin or Albuquerque.  Both of these have
"student ghetto" type housing near the universities.  But regardless,
this is the point:  Is it really cheaper to live far away from school
if you also have to buy a car to GET to school?  Oh I forgot--you want

It's my observation based on what you write.  If somebody disagrees
with you or posts something that you disagree with, you make a
personal issue of it.  You go into attack mode, like somebody has just
insulted your mother or something.
