Actually, what I was referring to was Clinton's demanding that his
stepfather go through him to get to his mother.  What?! Implying that
maybe the family would be better off without the *father*?! Silly liberal
democrat.  <snort> A father is *always* better than no father.  How dare
you stand up to him? He'd just be a deadbeat stepdad if you drove him out,
and *then* where would you be? In the world of moral depravity and single-
mother (read: inherently deficient) families.  No wonder you ended up a
democrat.  geez.

Twits, all of 'em.  Family Values Police.

I Gore's defense, I remember him making the statement that the Bush/Quayle
administration "gutted the Clean Air Act", but I think he squeezed that

Well I saw it, and it wasn't pretty.
Gore delivered the knock-out punch in my opinion.
I kinda felt sorry for the Perot candidate. Although he did get in a couple
of classic lines. "I think the Nation can see why we're in dead-lock." :)
Quayle was the big loser.

	No way.  If you heard him say it the emphasis was clearly
_not_ on the word 'President' but was on 'first'.  Dannye just screwed

Yup, you got it right. It's moving numbers in the polls that counts, 
nothing else even comes second really.  However, pollsters all say that 
in these sort of political situations, speeches, debates or whatnot, only 
polls taken three or four days later show the real gain or damage.  
Immediate impressions often change as people reflect some, and hear what 
the pundits have to say.

I'm sorry, but don't judge the whole state of Iowa.  Iowa went for Dukakis

Nope.  I am telling you that if you strip those things away, you can see
what's underneath.  If the entire force of an argument is carried in its
invectives and its adjectives, the argument is meaningless.  All too often,
unfortunately, it holds sway.

Read, for example, the paragraph I quoted above.

What the hell are you talking about?  Next you'll be telling us that
RepubloFascists never use "aggressive adjectives" nor "belittling

You Republican apologists are so tiresome.  I often wonder what kind of
a warped environment produces you people.  Glad I haven't spent too
much time there, though.
