I think this is indicative of the irrational thought process by leftists.  Look around the world and the problems we face are not nearly as catastrophic as the leftists proclaim every election year when they are not in power.  If Obama is elected the economic situation of the US in 4 years will be far less favorable yet Obama and the MSM will paint a rosy picture of the economy.  

This was indicated by the fact that Bill Clinton claimed the Bush Recession of 1992 was the “worst economy in 50 years!”  No matter that the years of 1974 to 1980 under Nixon, Ford, Carter were far worse.  And the MSM played the tune incessantly for Clinton.  

This same attitude is mirrored by the reporting on the homeless.  During the 4 years of Bush 41, the homeless issue was portrayed as a national disgrace.  Miraculously, when Clinton was elected the problem went away only to emerge as a new “national catastrophe” when Bush 43 was elected.  It happened overnight.  

Facts don’t matter to leftists.  BDS is all that matters.  To the leftist, Bush is the nexus of all evil in the universe.

I thought the vast right wing conspiracy was the nexus of all evil in the world. Did I miss a memo? I better consult the Maha Rushie so he can tell me what I am supposed to think on this one.

Yes, you must have missed the memo.  Bush/Cheney/Rove are the unholy trinity of the VRWC.  Therefore, they are the nexus of all evil in the world.  DailyKooks sent this out a couple of years ago.  John Stewart mentions this on the DailyKooks Show at least once a week.  

You have to get that decoder ring fixed!

Perfect conditions for a 3rd Party win?

If and only if a third party emerged that wasn't as ridiculous as theother two-  and there will come a day when sufficient quantitiesof supporters of both the Democratic and Republican parties will reachthe point where they will cringe at affiliation with either of thoseparties-  then and only then will a 3rd party win.  A thirdparty can't split one side and win- it must split both sides.  Youpeople are dreaming if you think you can create some kind of thirdparty in this climate that is going to carry a conservative flag andbuild a party based on planks you can live with.  Wake up andsmell the coffee.

What is wrong with the spacing on my posts?  Is this some kind of right-wing conspiracy?  I bet it is?

Hmm.

I agree with everything you have said on the first quote as do most of us here.  As far as your spacing goes, I think you need to check to see if it is happening elsewhere because it is not a problem with this forum.

It is a desperate attempt to get away from the "right margin"
that forces people to omit spaces.  There is, after
all a Vast Right Margin Conspiracy too!

Great.  This is your second or third post and you haven't figured out how to post a reply without "quoting" or adjust the alignment on text.  And you question my education and intelligence.  This is going to be fun but probably quite short-lived.

hmmm..I kinda like this right margin.  It feels very comfortable to me.  
Does that "I am soout of here" mean he/she's leaving us already?
