Dr. K Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 http://www.sltrib.com/utah/ci_3004197 "There are all of these guys with all of this training and we're sending them out to hand out a phone number," an Oregon firefighter said. "They [the hurricane victims] are screaming for help and this day [of FEMA training] was a waste." Firefighters say they want to brave the heat, the debris-littered roads, the poisonous cottonmouth snakes and fire ants and travel into pockets of Louisiana where many people have yet to receive emergency aid. But as specific orders began arriving to the firefighters in Atlanta, a team of 50 Monday morning quickly was ushered onto a flight headed for Louisiana. The crew's first assignment: to stand beside President Bush as he tours devastated areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll make it easer--give me a call when he or anyone in his administration demonstrates accountability for anything they have screwed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think that's the best way to use their volunteer services? You think that shows them or the people Bush is supposedly helping any respect? 431980[/snapback] It is what happens with all photo-ops. It happened with previous presidents and it will happen with future presidents. It happened with the tsunami and it happened on 9/11 with all dignitaries that visited. It happens with all events. Of course, you conveniently ignore that fact because "Bush Bad." He goes down there on these types of trips because people like you B word that he is not going on these trips. You then B word that he is going on these trips and it is taking away from the relief efforts. Well, no sh--. What did you expect? A presidential visit is going to bring things to a halt. That is why it is best that he just stay away. More will get done without him there. That is not a slam on anyone. It is a slam on the system. The president (any president) will bring things to a halt if he shows up. Of course, Bush is the first president to do something like this, because we all know that history started when he took the oath of office.

Dr. K Posted September 7, 2005 Author Share Posted September 7, 2005 I am between a Libertarian and an old-school conservative. 432204[/snapback] Both of which are varieties of right wing, though libertarians take positions on some issues (like drugs and censorship for instance) that sometiimes ally them with the left. Methinks thou dost protest too much. I for instance, have no use for the kind of Democrats who vote for abolishing the estate tax or the recent abominable bankruptcy bill, or who supported Bush on his Iraq adventure. I suppose I could insist that I'm not a Democrat, though if I have to choose between them and the Repubs, I invariably vote Dem. I have my own libertarian streak. But it would be dumb for me to insist I am not left-wing, though I do not agree with all people who say they are on the left, or with all policies labelled "leftist."

How about yours? 432234[/snapback] I agree, things are not black-white and right or left only. That's what I thought I said in my last response. The question I have is this simple one: why do you object to someone calling you "right wing" when you say yourself you are a "Libertarian or old-school conservative"?
