This board amuses me. Folks equate speaking poise with political strength and patriotism. They refuse to be labeled Democrat or Republican, yet embrace their secret parties agenda with affection. Truths are mixed with lies, opinions are laced with attacks, and the sophomoric slander reeks of unoriginality. The hypocracy here is exceeded perhaps nowhere else but in our own political system. But I do know of several things to be fact: Our economy is tight, World Peace seems unachievable, and our soil has been tainted with the death of thousands for no obvious reason. But through it all, I'm more proud to be an AMERICAN today than I ever have been in my 36 years on God's green earth. And I KNOW that the current administration is one of the reasons. So while some of you think Dubya is a moron, or a yokel, I thank him for his humanity. It's LONG overdue...

I fully agree with Tailgater on this and we should be lucky to have a great leader like GWB and his Administration, which by the way, is the most diverse and racially mixed of any of our past Administrations! Yet the NACCP will campaign against GWB in next election! Charlie

by the way did you get the closeup of the hummingbird i sent you?

That first post is because I was speachless. Let me ask this question, "Do you care whether the President is intelligent?" BTW, tailgater, you have been listening to too much AM talk radio, "On God's Green Earth"

To all of you!!! Go back and read all of the posts on this thread and you will see the same "labeling" and mud slinging over and over! All I can say is that it is a good thing Algore (not a typo) did not win! We would still be running opinion polls to see what action to take because of the Politically Incorrect actions of 9/11! He would probably be renting the Lincoln Bedroom for contributions and reinventing the internet.......what a great leader and public servant Algore was! Bah (laughing to myself) Charlie

At the risk of sounding like bubba, please define what you mean by "intelligence". If you refer to one's capacity to learn and interperet data, then Yes I think we'd all agree that it's important. If instead you are refering to the ability to speak elequantly so as to SOUND intelligent, then I'm not that easily impressed.

I honestly feel that it is MUCH more important to "Walk the Walk" than it is to "Talk the talk".

For the record, I've used the term "God's green earth" most of my life. And I prefer my local FM talk jocks on the rare occassions that I can listen to the radio.
