RE: Beware, political discussion may ensue
"" It was especially good to see Sandy toss his hat in the ring. ""
Yes, but I still don't like it. Allow me to tell you why. I respect other people's opinions that are different than mine, and I respect their right to voice opinions that are different than mine. However, the problem on THIS board is that there is not equal representation. I think - well I am almost sure that I am the sole person of the Jewish faith who is a practicing Jew, meaning I celebrate the Holy Days, I go to a synagogue and I try to live by the laws of the Torah. However, I am NOT well versed in things political, and I admit to that. Furthermore, being Jewish I will admit that I am more Pro-Israel than many Non-Jews. So, it's difficult for me to go toe-to-toe withj well versed persons who are "on the other side" ~ and with no support on my side, I feel like a girl scout doing a tug tug-of-war with the College wrestling team !
Regarding Domestic Politics. I am an independant. I have voted for candidates of BOTH major parties. I have greatly liked a couple of not-so-popular presidents. I am not a liberal, but I am also not a conservative. I am probably catagorized as a Liberal Republican more oft than not.
So, I cannot jump in and defend many politicians, as once I do - I will be labeled!! (I don't like labels) !!
Lastly SEX! Sex, yup you heard right!
Sex in America is weird! It's perfectly fine to go see a movie like TERMINATOR or any other blood & gore movie, but Oh No, No vivid sex! Yet in the Scandanavia countries, sex is so open and accepted, yet here it's still "dirty" in many sences.
With this in mind......Had Clinton not had Sex with Monica he would not have the dark cloud above him that he has.
Clinton had many, many wonderful brilliant people around him while in office, yet you never hear of them, as you only think of Monica, & Slick Willies lying & cover ups with Monica.
One of them I'll mention, as he wears my name. Sandy Berger. Sandy was Nat'l. Defense Minister. Sandy had advised the FBI that America was in danger of air attacks by our foes. But the FBI under the direction of another person put some interest into it for a short time, and then chalked it up to heresay..... Who here has ever heard of Sandy Berger? 9/11 would probably never have happened if the FBI had taken his message seriously ~ yet, everyone has heard of Monica Lewinski !
I also think G.W. Bush has been handed a real mess, and under the circumstances he is doing a more than decent job.
I still like John McCain!! I wish he'd run on a ticket with Joe Lieberman. I know, he's a Rep and Joe's a Dem, but there is talk...... (They're BOTH nutts to want the job) !!
Off Soap Box > Time to sit on the Porsche (Oops, Porch) and smoke a nice smoooth Dunhill Diamante!!
