45. When will all this nonsense end? The very people that lay claim
Edited on Sat Oct-06-07 09:24 AM by 0007
to God and morality, bomb and protest abortion centers, kill doctors and maintain hope that the U.S. will use Thermonuclear bombs to control our enemies.

Are these people hopelessly confused, as I am pessimistically lost in lack of understanding what life is all about?

In anticipation of the veto, William Kristol, the editor of The Weekly Standard, had this to say: “First of all, whenever I hear anything described as a heartless assault on our children, I tend to think it’s a good idea. I’m happy that the president’s willing to do something bad for the kids.” Heh-heh-heh.

Most conservatives are more careful than Mr. Kristol. They try to preserve the appearance that they really do care about those less fortunate than themselves. But the truth is that they aren’t bothered by the fact that almost nine million children in America lack health insurance. They don’t think it’s a problem.
