What if???

"Anchorman: The President nominated George Washington for the Supreme Court to fill the vacancy left by Sandra Day O'Connor. Democrats immediately attacked Washington for his environmental record of chopping down cherry trees."

Did you hear Ted Kennedy say "if the President abuses his power" and nominates someone the libs don't like they'd fight it. Talk about abusing power....

Ted Kennedy who? Oh, that's right, the hic-up driking fool! The same guy that let a lady die because he was driving drunk one night. Yea, that judgemental idiot that really should be in jail. Uh, I think I may have heard of him...

The Dems are masters of projection. They are guilty of pretty much everything they accuse Republicans/conservatives of.

"Did you hear Ted Kennedy say "if the President abuses his power" and nominates someone the libs don't like they'd fight it."

I'd appreciate a citation to that quote. It appears that it was never said in either that tone or manner, nor using the word "libs." What every Democrat and Republican has said; and I paraphrase, is that they will not support the nomination of a candidate to the Supreme Court who they feel will not properly serve the nation.

Rugrunner....Quotes are appropriate, when they are accurate and there's a citation; otherwise, it's just irrational revisionist pandering.

Doesn't matter the context, the meaning is there and Teddy Kennedy is still a disgrace to public office! He has abused power for his entire time in Public office and is nothing more than a murdering, drunkard and a big crook to boot!

We expect that kind of statement from Teddy!

Oh brother.

How can anyone defend Ted Kennedy? This guy is an ambarrasment to himself and any respectable and responsible democrat(the few that are left).

Charlie, I'm with you on this one!!

The grand question is, why do the voters of the Peoples Republic of Mass. continue to send Teddy back to the Senate??

Steve*R, I did hear Kennedy say it. If you look at my post I wrote "if the President abuses his power". There is a reason for those little marks " "(I think the are called quotation marks). They are used to show the reader what is inside is a quote. What isn't inside isn't a quote. BTW I heard him on ABC radio news while driving home. I do not remember his entire statement verbatim that is why I used the funny little marks ( "" ) on the portion I could accurately quote. I also wrote the rest in a manner that makes it rather obvious that I’m paraphrasing him other then the quoted (ā€œ ā€œ) part. I wonder if the still have those big RIF(reading is fundamental)Vans? They went around teaching kids reading skills. If they still have them one might be in your area soon!(c;

My apologies... I only came here to see what the fuss was about, from another thread I was reading.

But I must say... the sarcasm in this thread is pretty good. We got some talented folks here who could flourish under my sarcastic tutelage...

See? This is an example of sarcastic humor.

I refuse to take sides in the argument, because I believe that basically, you both think Mr. Kennedy is a dipsh*t, but disagree on using quotes?? Either way, Mr. rugrunner appears to be well versed in sarcasm... I need to burn one with you, bro. We could compare notes and stuff. šŸ˜‰

"If the President abuses his power and nominates someone who threatens to roll back the rights and freedoms of the American people, then the American people will insist that we oppose that nominee and we intend to do so."

http://wizbangblog.com/archives/006337.php 

In other words, if the President dares to nominate somebody Ted Kennedy and his cronies don't like it will be an abuse of the President's power.

Now what can be taken out of context about that?

What cracks me up is this.

How does Ted Kennedy know what the public wants before he opens up his piehole? He comes out almost instantly with his negative remarks about ANYTHING the president does.

He couldnt possibly know what the public thinks. There isnt enough time between what GWB says and what he spews!

piehole....

That word just makes me laugh.

Lets try it again...PIEHOLE!!

HA!

See it happened again.

S**tcan the two party system. Why must we label our views. Act like adults and get s**t resolved instead of acting like a bunch a school children and disagreeing for the simple fact that the other guy isn't in your "club".

For those that want to see and hear Senator Kennedy say it, go to Foxnews homepage and click on "Video" on the banner of links at the top. Then click on "Politics" on the left and in there you will find the video of his "warning" to the President.

I have a sister. Growing up her two favorite things to say were "life's not fair" and "that's not fair"(Steve*R, those mean what’s in 'em is a quote again) depending on if mom gave her the only cookie or someone else the only cookie. Even as a kid I saw this as odd. I would ask her about it and she would deny it, call me names, and finally run away for the conversation. She still has a Wellstone sticker on her car. I still have my pic of an elephant peeing on the word liberals.... who'd a thunk it?

To bad it'll never happen. To many people are way to involved with themselves and to close minded to others to make that idea work.
