54. Evasion Is Not An Answer
Edited on Wed Jun-09-04 05:43 PM by Solidarity
Your calling for Bi-partisanship and unity between Republicans and Democrats in order "to win an election for the Dems."??!!!

How does that work? I don't think the Republican party is about to join forces with the Democratic Party to elect John Kerry. Bi-partisanship only goes so far! Perhaps you don't understand what the term bi-partisanship has always meant in terms of legislative and other political activity in Washington.

I gave you a few concrete examples of bi-partisanship in Congress and you totally avoided that subject. And why did you do that? My guess is you probably supported those specific legislative acts that harmed workers, took us to war and curtailed our civil liberties. Is that right?

"Reagan's dead. He's not expanding anything." We know he's dead. But, his ideas aren't. Bush is deepening and expanding Ronald Reagan's right-wing agenda. If you don't understand that perhaps you need to read more about the Bush and Reagan governments.

"George Bush* died also? No wonder you're so upset"

George Bush did not die. Now that this is cleared up for you I can tell you that I wouldn't be upset at all. If fact, unlike you I'll have some very negative things to say about his policies and character when he passes away. I'm talking for granted that you will say nothing negative when George Bush dies in order to promote bi-partisanship with Republicans. That's why you won't comment on Reagan's death. Is that correct?
