And yes Petrus, those repukes do have a sordid track record..especially the religious ones, so those who think religion has nothing to do with any of this are blind fools who have drank the aformentioned kool-aid.



As I've often said, Dave, for me, this is the de facto anthem of the Republican Party. ;)

petrus4 said. "a Democratic President will almost always be more skilled at feigning innocence with the people"

petrus, that is one of the very very few things I have seen you say that I absolutely agree with. However your word "feigning" is not a very common term used for such subject, and some folks probably wouldn't catch the "true" intent of your comment.

So, for anyone who doesn't know exactly what "feigning" means, here is what the dictionary says:


Main Entry:   feign ?[feyn] 

Part of Speech:   verb

Definition:   pretend

Synonyms:    act, affect, assume, bluff*, counterfeit, devise, dissemble, dissimulate, do a bit, fabricate, fake, forge, four-flush, give appearance of, imagine, imitate, invent, make show of, phony up, play, play possum, put on, put on act, put up a front, sham*, simulate, stonewall


And, the basic definition of "pretend" and most all of those synonyms relate to outright lying! And yes, petrus, your point is well taken, as that is what the Democrats seem to be able to do the absolute best. And they are even better at making people believe what they say, especially the un-informed.

So, petrus, I thank you for making such a good statement in this discussion!!!
