"Some of you dump on Republicans/bash the conservatives"  (Note..emphasis mine....statement mine (in part) ...thought mine...)  My squawk is that no topic can be discussed on here without SOMEONE bringing Republicans or a member of the administration into the mix.  It almost reminds me of people who can't carry on a conversation without swearing.  It really is possible to have a discourse without insulting other people's beliefs.

(not directed at you Tk..it's a general statement.)

From time to time we all need to be reminded that we are all people and should NOT be defined by a political stand.

I was in the army for 7 years..

How did you know I wasn’t a General..

"She Thinks I Still Care", is down right now. Maybe it will come back up latter.

I posted another appropriate anti conservative hit for your listening pleasure.

‘He stopped loving her today‘.  

He was singing to a bunch of cowboys. Aren’t they all conservative?

Uhhh...the last one is a lost love song.  What are you trying to say?

The first one is another lost love song...  what are you trying to say there?

Wow...you'll have me in tears.  He Stopped Loving Her Today is my favorite George song by the way.

Uhhhh..how does his dying, ending his unrequited love, show either conservatism or liberalism?  Searching the words...hmmmm....I'm cornfoozed.

He Stopped Loving Her Today
George Jones
Words and Music by Bob Braddock and Claude Putman, Jr.

(peak Billboard position # 1 in 1980)

He said "I'll love you till I die", she told him "You'll forget in time"
As the years went slowly by, she still preyed upon his mind

He kept her picture on his wall, went half-crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all, hoping she'd come back again

Kept some letters by his bed dated nineteen sixty-two
He had underlined in red every single "I love you"

I went to see him just today, oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away, first time I'd seen him smile in years

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

SPOKEN
You know, she came to see him one last time.  Aww, 'n' we all wondered if she
would.  And it kept runnin' through my mind-"this time he's over her for good."

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

Bye the bye... I had no idea what "Possums'" political leanings were or are.  I figured he was just a country singer making a buck.

ki6..it's a'cause the rules don't apply to Liberals.  Don't you know Republicans and conservatives are the only ones who sling mud, have sex scandals, LIE, cheat, call names, break rules, commit political crimes, slander, start wars, and a myriad of other dastardly deeds?  Only if you are a Democrat or a Liberal are you as pure as the driven snow.   Sigh... I can only aspire to be as great........ I stand in their shadow.

:-)

Nancy, there's hope for you yet.  ;)

Borrowing from the Christian bumpersticker:  Liberals aren't perfect...just accountable.

Wonder how many Democrats they let in on the swindle known as "No Child Left Behind."

http://www.washingtonpost.c...

(I always thought "No Child Left Behind" was a condom-distribution effort.  What a letdown.)

Sorry to disappoint Tk but Jonsey isn't my type.  I like a couple of his songs and that one is an old favorite.  Not the man..the song.  At the risk of sounding blasphemous, I always though he was overrated as voices go.  I had a boyfriend in the biz many years ago and trust me..it was enough to last a lifetime.

RF...we are ALL accountable..just in different ways.  Put 'em in a sack, shake it up, pour 'em out, and they're all the same.  You folkses can deny it all you want but one side is just as bad as the other.   If you were totally honest with yourselves, you'd see that whoever is in office is the one accused of the shenanigans.  My guess is that if there are little green Martians types watching us, they'd be shaking their heads and calling their bookie to bet on who'll be in the next slapdown.

Nancy Says;

Alright already. Your forgiven.

Now stop that babbling and whining.

Say three hail Mary’s and slosh down three bottles of Kern River Swill.

Don't you know Republicans and conservatives are the only ones who sling mud, have sex scandals, LIE, cheat, call names, break rules, commit political crimes, slander, start wars, and a myriad of other dastardly deeds?

Ahhhh  .....But the question is..is Clinton the only one?  From our using him so often, (He's SUCH good material) the other side might think we can only find one Democrat who lied, cheated, had sex scandals, flung mud, called names, etc.

I heard a funny thing the other day.  After seeing the bloggers talk about how our Republican party just ain't the one our fathers knew, I heard somone on the right saying EXACTLY the same thing about the Democratic Party.  (or is it Democrat party..I forget which one offends them..sorrrreeee)

G. Jones at his last Republican convention.  I am second from the right.  Jones is just left of me.
