I am a retired Army colonel and my politics are somewhat to the left; I am a yellow-dog Democrat and voted for Bill Clinton twice. I favor serious gun control.

Krusty: Of all the rightwingnut assholes who are posting to this newsgroup after GWB's speech, your worthless and stupid remarks are the ones that finally set me off. I am a liberal. I am also a retired Army officer. I have more fucking time in the latrine than you, David, GOPUSA, and the rest of you rightwingnut cowards on this NG combined have in uniform. I was humping a ruck through the bush in Vietnam when your were a goddam wet dream in your Daddy's hand -- if you know who your daddy is. Let's look at a few liberals: -- John Kerry, Democract of Massachusetts. Three Purple Hearts and two Silver Stars. Of course, you wouldn't know a Purple Heart if your lard ass sat on one but I'll let you in on a secret: You don't get a Purple Heart out of a Cracker Jack box. -- Bob Kerry, Democrat from Nebraska. Lost a leg in Vietnam, awarded the Medal of Honor. How about you haul your dumbass to the Senate, buttonhole John Kerry and tell him what cowards liberals are. After he rips off your head and shits down your throat maybe you'll learn something -- but I doubt it. It's people like you who have never had a shot fired in your direction, who have never stuffed what you could find of a 19-year-old kid into a body bag -- people like your Rush Limbaugh who sat out Vietnam with a boil on his ass, like everygoddamone of the chicken hawks in this administration, like Pat Robertson whose US Senator daddy intevened to keep him out of Korea, like GWB who hide out in the Texas air guard, like Bob Dornan who crashed three helicopters and two trainers and never saw a minute of combat yet who is a darling of fools like you -- people like you who wouldn't know courage if it were transplanted into you. Which is the only way you'll ever get any. Whoop ass? The only thing you can whip is your own needle dick.

Listen closely. Without a doubt, you, sir, have never worn a uniform. I am a retired Army colonel -- I have stuffed more 19-year-old kids into body bags than you can think of. There is no sexual deviancy in combat --no race, no religion, no other differences. There are two colors in combat -- olive drab and blood red. The kid who carried my radio in Vietnam was homosexual and he died with a big fucking hole in his guts, trying to stuff his guts back inside -- never whimpered, never said a word -- and not a day goes by that I don't think about him. Go fuck yourself, you asshole - you aren't man enough to carry his jockstrap. You refer to homosexuals as "candy asses." You are too fucking dumb to deserve an answer.

Mr. Cornell: I wish I were as eloquent as you. However, I assume you know you are wasting your breath. Those who argue so violently against "homosexual marriage" are close-minded bigots who DO believe that marriage is to produce babies and that the role of women is to stay home and have them.

By the way, I served for 28 years, much of it in intell assignments. The reason usually given for not wanting homosexuals in the military is because they are untrustworthy . . . The kid who carried my radio in Vietnam was homosexual. He came home in a body bag -- or rather, the pieces of him that we could find came home in a body bag. The policy is wrong.

Jesus? Jesus? Oh, yes, he's the guy the Romans referred to as "ecce homo." By the way, I visited your website. You need to go to your local hardware store and get yourself a large galvanized steel bucket -- find one that will fit over your head and wear it 24/7. The aluminum foil hat you are wearing is not thick enough to shield your brain from the Ruby satellite rays

Well, I'm a Democrat and a liberal one at that and I pray to God. In fact, I pray to God often. She told me a few weeks ago that she was pissed at people like the radical rightwing Republiars who are making a mockery of what she stands for and they damn well better watch their step because, according to what God said to me, "Vengeance is mine and payback is, literally, Hell."

Frankly, my dear, I do not give a damn who the Republicans nominate because I am a yellow-dog Democrat and it gives me great pleasure to see the Republicans cannibalizing themselves. On the other hand, I hold out some hope that the mainstream of the Republican party, who are basically decent folks, will rescue the party from the "Christian right" -- which is neither -- and get the party back to dealing with real issues and not phony crap such as abortion. We need at least two parties debating on the issues, not on some nonsense created by Pat Robertson.

I would not expect a damnyankee to understand the term "yellow-dog Democrat." This is a true southern term, sort of like "y'all," "pone," and "grits." The term stems from the days when my beloved Southland was solidly Democrat -- before the damnyankess all dyed their hair blue, loaded up their Cadillacs and poodles, and moved to Florida.
The story is that if the Republican candidate was a fine, upstanding citizen and the Democrat candidate was a yellow-dog, I would vote for the yellow dog. And still would. Teach a Yankee to drive -- point him north.

Not only is Schlatter a yellow-dog Democrat, he is also damned proud of being left of center. As such, he does not associate with trash the likes of Newt Gingrich, Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, Fred Phelps, and Pat Buchanan (puke, spit).

Okay, the election is over, Bush Light stole it, and it's time for us to all cooperate for the common good. As a life-long, unrepentant Yellow Dog Democrat, I am hereby offering an olive branch to my Republican counterparts: I will embrace your Elephant and you can kiss my as.... excuse me, kiss my Donkey.

To start, the Democrats will take control of the Senate and the House in 2002. By that time, Bush Light will be irrelevant, Colin Powell will have been ditched, Gail Norton will be on her way out, and John Ashcroft will be hiding in a bomb shelter to avoid all the incoming. By 2004, folks will be so fed up with Bush Light and the publicans that the Democrats could run a yellow dog and Socks the cat -- and they'd win without the Supreme Court's help.

I am a yellow-dog-Democrat. Depending on your age and geographic origin, you may not recognize that term but it is sufficient to say that I have never voted for a Republican and never will. Also, I share some of your concern that the results of the election in Florida may not reflect the true vote count. Further, I am deeply troubled at Bush Light's apparent determination to pay off his debts to the "christian right" (which is neither) with my tax dollars.

"Borking" was nothing more than a Democrat response to Nixon's "enemies list." Repubs invented scorched earth politics -- Nixon planted the seed and totally destroyed the concept that honest men can have honest disagreements. Instead, he adopted the practice "If you disagree with me, I'll destroy you."
. . . Republicans are not bad people nor is the politics of the Republican Party of the Devil. It's just that -- beginning with Newt and his deal with Pat Robertson -- serious, honest Republicans have been pushed aside by the likes of Pat Robertson, the NRA, and similar mad dogs. I -- a yellow-dog Democrat . . .

The Republican governors' conference to which your article refers is interesting both from what WAS on the agenda and what (and who) WAS NOT on the agenda. The agenda included: plans for the 2002 campaigns and discussion of the impact the national economy will have on state and local elections. The agenda DID NOT include: -- Pat "The Liquor Officer" Robertson, Jerry "God Has Punished Us" Falwell, Gary "Behind Closed Doors With My Secretary" Bauer, Phyllis Slapstick, and any other holy-roller. -- Charlatan Heston -- in fact, not a single representative of the NRA was present. -- the line-up of gunnuts, anti-abortion hate groups, and tambourine thumpers that previously characterized Republican gatherings. Thus, the Republican governors' conference gives even us liberal, Yellow Dog Democrats hope that the adults in the Republican Party are now taking control . . .

My wife has been a public school teacher for 35 years. Because I served 28 years in the Army, we moved around quite a bit and she has taught in several school systems nationwide. My daughter has been a public school teacher for 5 years. I have NEVER observed, seen, heard of , suspected, or known of "Witchcraft, Buddism, (sic) Yoga and Any Religion Allowed and Some Cases Taught" in any school system anywhere. Well, let me correct that statement -- I have heard claims of "Witchcraft, Buddism, (sic) Yoga and Any Religion Allowed and Some Cases Taught " but those claims all came from some "christian" nut who was convinced if kids are reading anything other than the bible and if every class is not started with prayer, then they must be worshipping the devil. "Witchcraft, Buddism, (sic) Yoga and Any Religion Allowed and Some Cases Taught" -- just another figment of the holyrollers and biblethumpers.

Here in NE TN, the holyrollers are a bit more civilized -- they burn down strip clubs but they do it legally, not literally. They pushed a law through the state legislature that allows local governing bodies to shut down without due process any business the local folks think is a threat. Our county prosecutor and county commission -- who urged a local representative to introduce this bill -- now use the bill to padlock any establishment that is not serving communion, speaking in tongues, and handling snakes.
Burning would be preferable -- at least he could collect his insurance. As it is, the entire business is a loss. No difference at all between the Muslim mob in Nigeria and the holyroller mob in Sullivan County TN.

There is little or no difference between Protestant fundamentalists and Muslim fundamentalists. In fact, it is their similarities that make both groups dangerous to those around them and to the rest of the world. 1. Both are "evangelical" religions -- that is, they believe that their religion requires them to convert non-believers. What makes this belief really dangerous is that both of these cults believe that if they do not do their best to convert you, then they are as damned as you. That is, evangelical, fundamentalist Protestants believe that it is a sin for them NOT to try to convert you -- ditto for fundamental Muslims.

Well, it seems that the screaming reactionary bitch Ann Coulter is out with her new book claiming that every liberal who ever lived is a traitor and Joe McCarthy was right. Who will the radical reactionaries revive next? Will she tell us that what we really need is a few years of Herbert Hoover? Maybe she'll bring back Teapot Dome, tainted meat, and the railroad trusts.

"President George W. Bush is a liar. It's not that, from time to time, he 'mispeaks.' It's not that he has made campaign pledges that he did not exactly keep. It's that he is a liar. His college career was a lie; his business ventures were lies; his fortune -- the part he did not inherit -- was gained through lies. His most egregious lies are those he told to become president and the lies he continues to tell. He lied to take this nation into a war that will kill hundreds of young men, drain our treasury, and destroy our credibility with much of the rest of the world. His entire political program is a lie," -- Regards, Joe Schlatter
Editor's Note:
Col. Schlatter, is a Vietnam veteran who was tasked from 1986 to 1995 with running the Defense Intelligence Agency Special Office for POW-MIA Affairs. Schlatter's job while heading the POW/MIA office was to correlate and interpret the hundreds of intelligence reports about living American POWs left in Southeast Asia that were pouring into the Pentagon.
Unknown at the time to the POW/MIA families, Schlatter was a closet radical leftist working a secret agenda to help normalize U.S. trade relations with Vietnam by killing on paper several hundred U.S. servicemen described in the intelligence reports as prisoners of the Vietnamese communist.
When called upon by pro-Hanoi senators John Kerry and John McCain, Schlatter eagerly joined in attempting to discredit (killing the messenger) any individual or group that got in the way of President Bill Clinton's plans to normalize trade and diplomatic relations with Vietnam.
After Schlatter retired from the army, he moved quickly to create a "MIA Facts" web domain.
Any time information or comments pertaining to the POW/MIA issue or information critical of McCain and Kerry appear on the Internet, Col. Schlatter will jump in suggesting that the poster should visit his www.miafacts.org/ to read "the real truth" about what he calls the "POW/MIA myth." Like most of Schlatter's posts on the Internet, www.miafacts.org/ is peppered with twisted facts, lies, and distortions, pure black propaganda.
