I don't guess this trend is any different than the one that got deleted. I guess a whiner will say something then when everybody doesn't post agreeing with him he cries for it to be deleted.

The list I posted on Bush's unaccoplishments was not up for criticism and if you didn't think it was all truths, take half of it away. You just hafto stick your head in the sand not to know that most of it is true.
THE POINT OF IT WAS, A CHALLENGE, FOR YOU'LL TO POST HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS. I couldn't find any.

The Hugh MacKay comment about failure sons depleting the family net worth reminds me of a guy who was talking about Bush asking, "How do you bankrupt an oil company?".

Tim: Don't know just why you should feel let down. In just about every country in the industrialized world, all business people get their failure sons into politics. It's done here in Canada, all across Europe, etc. You folks are no exception.

Lordy, lordy those folks just can't have failure sons depleteting the family net worth, so they just pon them off on the tax payer. The absolute only way we get our moneys worth is the humor they provide.

If the man isn't doing his job properly, it's our duty to say so.

He's failed the country with false intelligence on Iraq.
He's failed the country with poor planning on Iraq. He's failed our country with bad emergency planning. He's failed by installing unqualified people to positions of power (thanks, Brownie.) He's failed to control the budget. He's failed to provide an energy policy. He's failed to prevent illegal leaks of classified information from his closest advisors. He's just failed.

It is our duty to say so.

And at the end of the day ... the man just says stuff that is easy to laugh at.

"I know that people work hard to put food on their family." "Is our children learning?"

I guess in my perspective having just buried a friend who was blown to oblivion in Iraq, One thing Bush did not fail us on, was putting the war where it belongs, in the terrorists backyard. Those crazies tried to bring their "jihad" to us, so we took it back to them. I feel a little better knowing those looneys are being kept at bay over there blowing up their own women and children, than being over here blowing up our women and children.

I have same chain saw (Stihl 180MS) as George W. Bush and even voted for him.

I laughed when I read the joke originally and wanted to share the chuckle with the tractor boys, no disrespect was intended.

So Tim the best way to support President Bush is for you to join the Marines.Have you spoken to a recruiter[nickname professional liar]?You could be spreading freedom in Iraq right now.Support your commander in chief.The gas joke was over the line for any prez good or bad.

Sportster, I disagree that it was plan for the rich as they will find an option to make money no matter what. As for the propaganda, well that's been going since the beginning of time. In fact, my school taught us not to believe everything we saw in the news. So if you were the President, how would you solve all the problems we got while a couple thousand other politicans oppose your ideas?? Why does everyone want to blame one person? No harm intended, just a different view.

I love the fact that we live in a free country where you can tell a political joke, even about the President, and not have some secret police hunt you down (as is the case in some other places in the world). As for joking about the President, it doesn't bother me a bit and I don't think I have any disrespect for the office or for the particular person in office. I've told and laughed at jokes about Presidents I like and about ones I dislike. If you really have never, ever told a joke about a President (current or former) or never laughed at one about a President (current or former) are you sure you have a sense of humor?

Just my opinion here, so it aint nothing to shoot me over, but, I think off topic posts are subject to different discression on the part of the website hosts. Humor,wether you agree with the joke or not, usually draws only comments about wether or not you laughed at the joke, or maybe an additional joke to go along with the first one. Dating, or any off topic like it, usually brings in religeous(sp)beliefs and opinions about marriage and having children and what age is right etc., etc., etc. More times than not the discussion will get quite heated and end up with insults and profanity. Even though this one may not have, it had the same potential to and I bet that's what got it deleted.

Again, that's just what i'm thinking happened.

Agreed Tim - the thing is, when I last saw it, none was offensive - if there was a post that was, why delete the whole thing?

I seriously gave thought to printing out the thread to have on hand for the boys when my daughters get old enough to date.

Of course, they will never be old enough, but they will anyways.

Political comments / jokes will always draw fire.
As in the military, you may not respect the man, but you must respect the rank. People get elected for a reason. My only comment on that is that I wish that Congress would represent the people instead of themselves and their own personal agendas. (OK - here I go!!)
Not sure about the dating thread - didn"t read that one - too old to date or even care about girls!! Besides, I lean toward courting and not dating. Big difference!!

I can't speak to IB's thoughts on the subject But here's mine.

Dating is to courting as living together is to marrage. Just like no fault divorce, when you are tired of dating someone you walk. Courting is more like buying something. You invest time, resources, and effort is the best possible deal you can get. In short, Dating infers no comitment, little investment, and when it's over, it over. Courting, on the other hand requires comitment, respect, and leads to one place, marrage. I think thats a lot of the problems with marrages today, it really is just a continuation of the dating process. Courting done propoerly (pick wisely) it last forever, because it more about the comitment than you.

ErinOH - you nailed it!!
Plus, remember, when your son / daughter marries, there's a relationship with another family to consider. Mom or Dad-in-law's have ended a lot of good marriages by medling in matters when they should have let the kids work it out.
It gives everyone tme to get to know each other. I mean REALLY get to know them. On a date, most people are on their best behavior. As most of us know, marriage is a lot more that behaving in a proper manner. Courtship involves doing things with families and building relationships - not so easy to just walk away from, which is good when problems come up - and they will! The Bible says you should "love the one you marry", not marry the one you love. That's because love is a commitment - not a "feeling". If you aren't looking for, and willing to make a commitment, then you should stay single.

It seems so many news reporters refer to President Bush as Mr.Bush. I believe he shoulbe referred to as Mr.President or President Bush.

As far as dating or courting I dont know. What I do know is that a formal wedding in east TN requires white shotguns.
