assistant: Are these supposed to be separate sentences or is this a "stream
of consciousness" thing?  Given the lack of clarity in your
intent I'll deal with each statement as I see fit.
Don't you mean you are waiting for a subject *to* which you want
to respond?  What you said (with which to respond) indicates that
you want us to write your replies for you.  As Rush says, "Words
mean things."
These formatted as separate thought fragments, but they seem to
relate to one another, so I'll treat them as a single entity.
We will decide when Clinton has been discussed enough, not you.
As long as new material keeps coming out, as long as he
continues to escape punishment for criminal acts and judgement
for immoral ones he will be a subject of discussion here.
What was done in Jonesborough is done also.  Do you advocate that
those two kids escape any judgement for their actions?  Or do you
propose punishing the "evil firearms" that obviously controlled
the actions of those two "innocent darlings" against their will?
What does my conscience have to do with any criminal or immoral
acts by Bill or Hillary Clinton in Arkansas or elsewhere?  I have
no problems labeling Billy-Bob as a cowardly, draft-dodging, dope
using, lying bas*^&d who regards *all* women inflatable party
dolls.  And I hold him in higher regard than I do his wife.

assistant: 25. Florida is not considered a southern state.  There are far

26. In southern churches you will here the hymn, All Glory, Laud

27. As you are cursing the person driving 15 mph in a 55 mph
    zone, directly in the middle of the road, remember, many
    folks learned to drive on a model of vehicle known as John
    Deere, and this is the proper speed and lane position for the

Such men understand all syllables of the word "no," and pay close
attention. One such of my acquaintance, a dashing bachelor about
town, was once unwinding a beautiful belle of Bombay from her
sari when he heard the unmistakable sound of the word no: "Does
this mean you will marry me?" He stopped in mid-revolution, and
barely missing a beat began to wind her safely back into her
sari.
Such frightful deceivers need do only as the Unabanger does, not
as the Unabanger says. Take out a membership in Planned
Parenthood, send a small check to NOW or to the Fund for a
Feminist Majority. Make sure to get a receipt, suitable for
framing. Then let the good times roll.
Such deceit may not be nice, but it doesn't keep the deceiver
from being a good doctor, lawyer or commander-in-chief from 9 to
5, and, like Miss Gloria says, we certainly don't want to
disqualify energy and talent the country needs.

assistant: Someone's already done the parody -- in fact, I've heard at
least two different versions done to the "Barbara Ann" tune,
as well as one done to the tune of "Charlie Brown" ("Bomb
Iraq, take Kuwait back").  Shanklin might be able to come up
with a nice twist, though...he's very creative.
Thanks, Gaylen, but I won't put you to that bother. I can do
a websearch myself and find Paul Shanklin's URL.  (Technically,
I don't live within Net123's area; but it's the closest net to
my home, so I consider it my home, mor or less, in Fidonet.)
I also just received the first issue of my Limbaugh Letter
subscription, which came with a list of Rush's various phone
numbers and addresses; I think I'll send him the appropriate
segments from the Nodelist and invite him to logon and lurk...
under a pseudonym, of course.  (Of course, it's entirely
possible that he's already done this, using telnet to get into
a node in another area so we'd never suspect....
Oh, wow, do you suppose he's really one of the regulars here,
posting under a different name?  Nah, he wouldn't do that --
or at least he knows we'd never suspect that he'd do that, so
maybe he would.  Oh, I'm making myself dizzy with all this
circular reasoning....<g>

assistant: Another Arkancide??? In case you haven't heard...
Remember Rush talking about the Arkansas mechanic that found all those
cancelled checks to ol' Billy in the back of a car? I just heard he
met HIS death over the weekend. It seems he was going way too fast
(like most people do when being chased down) and hit a pillar or
embankment. It sure isn't safe to get in a car or plane if you know
Bill Clinton! Next to their mafia-style hits, they do seem to like
to use "death via transportation".
Funny, all the mechanics I knew in Arkansas were pretty good drivers.
Even if they drove fast, they generally were quite good at that too,
since they knew better than anyone what a car is capable of.
I'm also starting to feel like a contestant in David Letterman's
"Brush with Greatness" where they just *almost* have run-ins with
celebraties (except in this case, it would be "Brush with LOWness"!)
First I used to go to the club where Roger Clinton played (and we've
come to find out, where Bill picked up his drugs)...and now there is
Liz Ward. She used really like my brother and they did hang around
together...although I think he mostly just liked her as a friend. (I
always thought she was a little "fast" for his tastes). Sometime
after that, I dated the "boy she left behind" when she went off to
seek her fortune...or maybe to get away from Clinton...?
I would say it's a "small world" but it's more likely because
Arkansas is a *small* state...which is probably much like Bill's
favorite appendage.

assistant: It appears that correct English usage and common courtesy is
beyond you.  We've come to expect that from liberals.
Don't you mean "then charge him?"  That's up to a grand-jury
after reviewing the evidence.  The evidence that Clinton is doing
his best to destroy or hide.
When the object of the investigation destroys evidence,
intimidates witnesses, and delays the investigation at every
opportunity.  The "executive privilege" claim is an excellent
example.  It applies *only* to matters of national security and
defense.  That was settled by the Supreme Court during the Nixon
investigation.  Yet Billy-Bob is still claiming it.
It's also interesting to note that Hillary worked for the Nixon
prosecutor and put forward the opinion the President had *no*
right to legal representation in such an investigation.  I guess
it's different now that she is involved on the other side.
Congratulations, you've just called yourself a liar. "Getting all
the facts" before responding is the opposite of what you have
done.  You're posts read like socialist agit-prop.  They have no
connection to reality, only to what sounds good.
Your refusal to answer my question is glaringly obvious by it's
absence from your reply.  Making spurious self-righteous claims
to avoid addressing the question is another characteristic we've
come to expect from liberals.
