		<description>&lt;p&gt;Watertiger,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, they say it’s your birthday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m a recent recruit to your website. Your snarkiness and chutzpah do lighten my day.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You have so much to be proud of and thankful of that your birthday should be a grand celebration of all that is Watertiger.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Enjoy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Naturally, the common people&lt;br /&gt;
don’t want war, but they can&lt;br /&gt;
always be brought to the bidding&lt;br /&gt;
of the leaders.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tell them they are being attacked,&lt;br /&gt;
and denounce the pacifists” &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(aka liberals)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“for lack of patriotism and endangering&lt;br /&gt;
the country.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It works the same in every country.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sound like a Karl Rove statement?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Its actually  Herman Goering&lt;br /&gt;
Reichsmarschall (Nuremberg Trials)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“If you tell a lie big enough&lt;br /&gt;
 and keep repeating it,&lt;br /&gt;
people will eventually come to believe it. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The lie can be maintained only&lt;br /&gt;
for such time as the State can&lt;br /&gt;
shield the people from the political,&lt;br /&gt;
economic and/or military consequences&lt;br /&gt;
of the lie. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It thus becomes vitally important&lt;br /&gt;
for the State to use all of its powers&lt;br /&gt;
to repress dissent, for the truth is&lt;br /&gt;
the mortal enemy of the lie, and&lt;br /&gt;
thus by extension,&lt;br /&gt;
the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;– Joseph Goebbels, Propaganda Minister, Third Reich&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is scary as hell.  You have just described Rove’s gameplan.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Haven’t seen this mentioned elsewhere, though some have commented on the underlying factiness:   given that everything Bush does is meant to send a political message, what does it mean that &lt;a href=&quot;http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060811/pl_afp/uspoliticsbushcamus_060811231406;_ylt=AuuH3pG6LpZ5S13VrT92WtgFO7gF;_ylu=X3oDMTA5bGVna3NhBHNlYwNzc3JlbA--&quot;&gt;he claims to have recently read Camus’s The Stranger&lt;/a&gt;, the plot of which centers on killing a randomly-selected Arab for no reason?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The strangeness of it all.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;A right-wing blogger said this about the Lamont primary win, “Sounds great, until you realize 48% of &lt;b&gt;Democrats&lt;/b&gt; voted for the Bush candidate.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What would the response to this be?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ignorance is Joementum!!!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That ignorance is bliss?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Seriously, as more people get to know Lamont and how down to earth, authentic, and normal he is, the more he looks like the winner in November.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;I’m sorry that I lost my temper about your comment a few threads back.  This &lt;strike&gt;happens all the time because I am an angry Welsh ready to burn from the Rhine to Poland&lt;/strike&gt; is a rare occurrence.  Hope you will forgive.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;OT and EPU’d, but I haven’t just been yanking your chains on yellow ties.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take a look at this:&lt;/p&gt;

Tony Snow – A vote for Lamont is a vote for another 9/11&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That sounds like something you’d hear on Faux News, oh wait… ; )&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks, Lotus!  The b’day is actually tomorrow, but I’ve been celebrating all weekend.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hey, the Queen of Britain celebrates over a period of several months.  I’m good with that as an example of celebration.  My mother had her 80th birthday party in July when the real deal was October.  I watch and learn.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
