We only know about his DUI in Maine, where he was not Governor. We sure do. The honorable Kennedy Clan called in some IOU's and their drunken lush embarrassment avoided a manslaughter charge.Gokul43201 said:Or by the Strong and Determined President Bush ?
At least we know what happened with Teddy...but nobody knows about Bush's Texas Driving Records because they've been vanished.
It was just an observation for you to view through your rosy colored glasses.Robert Zaleski said:
I watched it. This was the first interview that I saw of Hastert. I remember thinking that he came off as completely unbelievable and extremely "sneaky" looking. His eyes never looked at ohers, but were positioned in a way, I can't think of a word to describe it, that I associate with untrustworthiness.Ivan Seeking said:
He made many disingenuous comments, such as this one. Although I will not dispute this statement, I consider that it is far MORE true in the case of the Republicans. In other words, while stating a truth, he is being deceiving and attempting to hide a greater truth.
Because I can't post the video tape?JohnDubYa said:

All right, you guys are going to have to clarify here, because this is really coming across as if you would rather judge a politician based on the way he looks than the way he thinks.Ivan Seeking said:
Sounds like Bill Clinton. Did Dennis also shed a tear to indicate passion and sympathy, or has his phoniness worked his way up to that level yet?
That is merely a matter of opinion.
Heh. Body movements... as in finger wagging. "I did not have sex with that woman." Heh.
I did not realize that you are a first name basis with Dennis.JohnDubYa said:
Everything is this forum is a matter of opinion. You are certainly free to think the world of "Dennis". You should not expect that all people as up on the issues as you obviously are must necessarily like him as well.
I suppose that this means that from now on we can take every single comment that you make, divorce it from anything else that you have said, and then suggest that you are trying to use this as the complete justification for your entire argument. As well, like you, perhaps we can dream that others might find such a statement funny, or at least meaningful is some very small way.loseyourname said:
I suppose you apply the same reasoning to those that call our President George W.. What about Condi, as in Condeleeza Rice? Arnie, as in Arnold Schwarzenegger? Rosie, as in Rosie O'Donnell?
You misunderstand my strategy: I was pointing out the hypocrisy in those that are Clinton fans and ridicule Hastert. Was my strategy successful? I will let you decide for yourself.
Not when the word "truth" is used, as it was in this case. When someone says "X is true," that is not merely a matter of opinion. Go back and read the original post.
You make very poor suppositions, and then you treat them as though there was no doubt as to their truth. All right.JohnDubYa said:
Are you saying that you consider those others to be hypocritical, and therefore that you should be able to join them, and even surpass them? All right.JohnDubYa said:
In your dreams, I am sure that you think that you were successful.
The statement was intended to be a question. So what is your answer? If you are denying my claim, say so.
No, I am saying that there is nothing wrong with calling a politican by his first name in a political forum, and I offered examples to support my claim. And those that object to my calling the speaker by his first name, and yet call our president by his first name, are hypocrites. Are they not? Do you fall in that category?
Whatever.
Oh, the hypocrisy exists. Since when did you become on a first name basis with Saddam Hussein? Did you write the following?
Extricate yourself from that one, Mr. First-Name-Basis.
