DubYa made the implication that the Kerry camp got Rather and Today Show to do his dirty work. How did this get so messed up. I answered that we should assume that neither Bush nor Kerry had anything to do with either issue. On that assumption we should then look at what went down: Rather...

It was DubYa, by this unintelligible response that triggered mine: "One side has pay for their messages on their own. The other side gets Dan Rather and The Today Show to air theirs" He made this distinction, not me. How by any stretch of the imagination did you make such a leap, Russ...

So, we have degrees of right and wrong then? Then you suggest that accountability is entirely a matter of political expediency? Let's both assume for the moment that Rather and CBS acted on their own sans involvement by the Kerry camp, and that Swift-Boat did the same on their side. Is not...

Additionally, the human level of consciousness is determined in precisely the same manner... stimuli impinge upon our various sensory receptors. It is from these myriad of "collisions" from solid molecules triggering olfaction and taste, photons striking our retina for sight, touching or being...

My point is to highlight the difficulty in reaching a logically viable definition of "consciousness."

It is a point of irony among many in this campaign that Dan Rather apologizes for documents that are in question but the information within them is said to be accurate. In a perfect world we might expect Bush to follow suit about Iraq...or the Swift Boat boys to follow suit about their own...

We have two rocks floating aimlessly in space. At last one bumps into the other. From this collision there will be a transferrance of energy between the two rocks. By this can we say that at the moment of collision each rock became "aware" of the other?

Discovery/Science channel and Discovery/Wings often air historical accounts of the American manned space flight programmes from Mercury all the way to Apollo. It is quite right to say that we DID NOT have the technology to go to the moon when Kennedy set the 10 year goal to do it. The race...

Sorry, we're still working on the problem of where socks go after we put them in the dryer.

Bush, though clearly a very stupid man, still takes a very close second place to Dan Quayle, former VP of the US under Dubya's daddy... one of his most famous Quaylisms was when he addressed the United Negro College Fund in May of 1987, "What a waste it is to lose one's mind or not to have a...

former statesman Adlai E. Stevensen, Jr. made this distinction which may prove helpful, "...I have an idea, if Republicans will stop lying about Democrats, we'll stop telling the truth about Republicans." he said this in 1954 which proves that nothing really changes in Washington.

The quote from Rush was unnecessary. We are now discussing Dan Rather and I agree entirely with your last line, on both counts. Rush is another topic altogether. "...I will check myself into a treatment center for the next 30 days..." How does Rush determine how long his treatment will...

Odd statement? It wasn't a statement, but a question. Did I read you wrong, or did you say you went to high school with him?

Interesting statistic...would you share with all of us just HOW you managed to arrive at this eh...statistic?
