Glad you liked the nickname! I've tossed it out a couple times, just had to, you know, since I know you love your Texas bro so much and your chosen name is so similar to another Harv and we gotta use SOME kind of distinguishing character, just like between him and his daddy, and the first part of your name starts with.......Dubya!!!.
About those moderates: they're the guys who would've had us under the Brits 230 years ago, and the Germans 60-odd years ago, and wanted to just let things be after Sept. 11, 2001.....that's the way the conversation was going back then, W. We were to blame in the moderates' eyes. When I see a "Never Forget" T shirt, I think of how some showed their real colors back then. And I think a lot of folks are not going to forget that. It's one thing to wrangle over how tax money should be spent, or if it should be spent at all. It's quite another to stand by and let evil continue unabated. Those folks are the type who would cross the street if they saw bad guys hassling a little old lady. Sorry if I can't be moderate.....I don't think you are, either, W. There's a difference between peace and appeasement. I was too young for the war you fought, but not too young to remember how it was run from home by moderates. I wish you hadn't had to go over there, but I will always remember the lessons it taught us about how NOT to fight moderately.
Your response isn't any worse or better than anyone else's...including some of my older ones from the Off Topic days. It's just that you're such a big feller and I had so much fun wrestling with you before we had to be good and stop knocking over the lamps and coffee tables in here.
You're shorter than Dubya? I thought he was a little fella and you were a big bear. Are you saying the first decent leader of the free world in 8 years can only throw girls? My impression is that he treats girls a heckuva lot nicer than that other guy we had. I always thought you could tell a lot about a man by the way he treated women.................
