13. Why does anyone post there?
Edited on Thu Oct-30-08 08:49 AM by TexasObserver
If it's on the LBN board, it's already on the GD or GDP board. So much for the LBN delusion. Frankly, it reminds me of churches who think their message is more special than others.

15. Yes
I for one had piled it up in the long ago column in my memory. (shame on me)

Like so many other outrages it really does deserve attention when we're voting for his replacement - and to remember what it is he has to pardon himself from. Especially to remind us all that we should press for investigations into all these things so that everyone can see what was going on and when.

9. That is from 2006
From the comments:

it takes is a bit of research guys. Note the scroller at the bottom. This piece aired on the day Sen. Jim Jeffords left the Senate. A quick wiki search on Jeffors reveals:

"On September 27, 2006, Jeffords delivered his farewell speech on the Senate floor after 32 years of service."



Bernie Sanders ran for Jeffords Senate set.

12. Off topic, sorry - Did he fart in public ?
When I read the subject line of this thread, "trying to parden himself," I'm sorry but I thought: Oh, "parden me"... - Did he fart in public or something? And now he's saying "Oops, parden me!"

He SHOULD be apologizing for the foul smell of his administration over these past 8 years. "Parden him"? Ha!
