What does being a lawyer have to do with my opinions about our President? I
think he is a waste of sperm. Period. I think he's damaged our nation. History will prove him to be one of the worst presidents since Herbert Hoover. Yes, I have raced bikes. First BMX. Then MTB. And finally road bikes. I've been racing bikes for a total of 20 of my 30 years on this earth. I have also taught bicycle clinics for kids. Any more questions? "k.j.papai" wrote in message ... "Philip W. Moore, Jr." wrote in message ... George W. Bush was born choking on a condom. You call yourself a lawyer? EVER Race a bike or help others race? Not by your juvenile actions here it seems. blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! blah blah blah blah blah! |

One more thing...why do you correlate politics with bike racing? Look, I'm
as passionate about Kerry and adamant that Bush is destroying America as the right-wingers are for Bush and against Kerry. My comment about Bush was a slight directed toward him based on his stance against abortion...a way of explaining his reasons for being so opposed to it...in a crude way. Politics and satire go hand in hand, even crude satire. Don't judge me exclusively on my political beliefs. I've got election fever right now and am working on four hours of sleep a night because I am ingesting too much politics. Chill out on me, senor Papai. You've no reason to question me so virulently. I use my true identity here, am open about who I am and what I'm not, and enjoy this newsgroup as much as you or anybody else does. You'll find me much less offensive after the election is over when we all get back to talking about bike racing. Some questions for you which you can answer via private email: (1) who are you, (2) what do you do, (3) do you race, (4) what sort of races, e.g. which class and style - road, crit or stage, etc...

Philip, I respect the process, your political opinion, and your right to vote for whom you chose. I only have one question for the "liberals". Leadership is defined by one who can stand by their convictions regardless of swaying popular opinion. How in the world could Kerry be good for America when his record is consistenly wavering. We are in a geo political situation when leadership is crucial. I don't think Bush is perfect but I don't think there's even a question whom is better. (Sorry for stating my opinion but I view Kerry as nothing but dangerous for America...and by the way, I travel all over the world, so I know something about how the rest of the world feels).. Sorry, Ken, don't want to turn this into a political forum but it's just too close to election time and I view this as an importnat one. Danny Callen |

As opposed to never wavering, even in the face of obvious errors. Hmmm, which is worse?

However the "errors" are again a matter of opinion. I believe in an offensive strategy to fight terrorism and threats. Let me be clear, I'm not saying that "I'm" absolutely correct; I recognize that the country may have a different perspective than I and the vote could go the other way. I'm only saying that leadership (IMHO) is the most crucial aspect of the election. Danny Callen Danny Callen |

"Danny Callen" wrote in message ... Leadership is defined by one who can stand by their convictions regardless of swaying popular opinion. Danny Callen You are conflating leadership with intransigence. I find your mistake odd -- I have some recollection that you are a lawyer, but perhaps I've separated the needle from the thread. In any case, here's a refresher: in·tran·si·gent also in·tran·si·geant (¹n-tr²n"s.-j.nt, -z.-) adj. Refusing to moderate a position, especially an extreme position; uncompromising. [French intransigeant, from Spanish intransigente : in-, not (from Latin; see IN-1) + transigente, present participle of transigir, to compromise (from Latin tr³nsigere, to come to an agreement : tr³ns-, trans- + agere, to drive; see ag- below).] --in·tran"si·gence or in·tran"si·gen·cy n. --in·tran"si·gent n. --in·tran"si·gent·ly adv. lead·er·ship (l¶"d.r-sh¹p") n. 1. The position or office of a leader: ascended to the leadership of the party. 2. Capacity or ability to lead: showed strong leadership during her first term in office. 3. A group of leaders: met with the leadership of the nation's top unions. 4. Guidance; direction: The business prospered under the leadership of the new president. Notice that there is nothing in "leadership" which implies or insists on intransigence. Historically, many of the most successful leaders have been the most adaptable. Some of them may have been as immature as our head dick, but few of them were so hyper-masculine they responded to failure of penetration by pumping more and more and more blood into it. Then again, his sanguinity has never come from his own corpuscles, has it? I make it plain for you thick-kneed 'publicans: when your enemy is small and subtle, the last thing you want to be is large and stiff. An army of ants can kill an elephant, dumbass, even an engorged one. The silliest flapdoodle of this whole election has been that George Bush is a good leader. Kirby. |

Danny, I guess I don't really agree with that definition of "leadership". It isn't so much the being "not being swayed by popular opinion" that's an issue - it's more the standing by his convictions in the face of overwhelming evidence that he has chosen the wrong course. GWB has an incredible unwillingness to even acknowledge news that isn't in full agreement with his preformed ideas and opinions. I didn't like Reagan, but the man was a leader. GWB doesn't even come close to measuring up to that standard. -- tanx, Howard "It looks like the squirrel's been showing everybody where he keeps his nuts." remove YOUR SHOES to reply, ok? |
