It like the saying goes, "You can put lipstick on a community organizer, but it's still a community agitator" or something like that.Quote:

He is so much smarter then you want to admit & remember, his scores were also higher then john kerry's (oh yeah, BTW he was in VietNam if you didn't know!) :lol
What's wrong with that comment? It wasn't an insult! So many people have commented about Bush not being the best student in the past and I stated that he may not have been at the top of his class but he was commited to his goal. WTH is wrong with that??? Hell, if that's an insult about being commited to a goal, please insult me like that. You certainly took that statement way out of context.Quote:

I don't know why you took offense to that statement. Could it be because I'm a known liberal and God forbid a liberal actually says something positive about a conservative. We all don't have ulterior motives. You bold type the "not the best student" as if that was what the topic was, lol. Kind of like what the MSM does... picks a statement out of context and runs with it.
I *think* she was complimenting you ...Quote:

Edited to add: Don't tell anyone but I've voted Republican (Gasp!) before. I voted for Mitt Romney for gov of our state when he ran and if he was running for president I might be leaning that way.
May be considered an endangered species around here ....Quote:
Maybe I'm an open minded liberal. Is there such a thing?? LOL
;)
I voted for Clinton ( first term ... ) and I voted for Blanco for Gov. ( still think she was raked after Katrina ) - I vote for the person ... not the Party.
Good woman! I agree. I am not one to get sucked into voting only on party lines. i also voted Reagan.Quote:
