OT, but funny and unlikely to last.

Check this out. Look closely — won’t take you a minute.

it’s gone already. what did it say?

Still there — this is the page you get when you ask for a synonym for pederast. The first line of the response is, “Did you mean …?”

Maybe it isn’t fair, but I think it is funny.

Do a google for Pederast and three or four
explanations down the page is the answer!!

I must agree it is funny….no disrespect meant!!

was a continous fountain of investigation,moral
high horsing and Clinton WH expose. That it
actively sought to discredit,disabuse or take
Bill Clinton out via impeachment historically
documented and supported.
When G.W.Bush came to power in early 2001 he
claimed very early on that his WH would be a
bastion of virtue,forthright morality and in
all ways political unblemished whiteness.
Six years later those claims from G.W.Bush
stand in most ways discredited. The Decider has
shown little inclination towards moral,ethical
or truthful conduct or the enforcement of these
in his WH.
The GOP in the House or Senate has exposed
itself has being hypocritical and acting not
out of deep felt universal principle. The last
five years clearly conducted in ways the GOP
never displayed during the Clinton WH years as
to sharp-nosed reaction,inquiry and resorting
to full Congressional means to expose or hold
in check. The GOP run Bush2WH clearly being
given a run of field the GOP never would permit
the Clinton WH.
So having fallen down on consistency the GOP
in both houses of Congress deserve to be turned
out this November of 2006. Having discredited
themselves of moral or ethical principle. By
having been derelict over fiscal governance.By
having been derelict regarding oversight. By
having been derelict regarding checks,balances
and inquiry. Dereliction the central charge.
The Bush2WH has squandered its moral and
ethical standing with its cheapening of WH
position thru fact and truth disallow and its
simple willingness to lie repeatedly.
If the GOP had conducted itself has it was
so willing to advertise it would have no real
problems today. Moral,ethical and truthful
conduct can not be attacked when evidence
points to these being present in government
action and conduct. The GOP sold out on those
repeatedly over last 5 years. Deserves all the
scorn being shown now. Deserves now a fall from
power in DC richly and amply.
