Where is that happening? I haven't seen any republicans showing moral outrage
at whet the dems are raising?

Do you think they are waiting for the right moment in the campaign to do that?

I believe that GW Bush, Inc. would do *anything*, and I mean *anything*
(murder, treason, lie, cheat, steal, etc.) to get him re-elected.
So I find it easy to believe that they could be holding Sadam or Ossama
until just the right opportunity.

I don't think they could keep something like that quiet. Too many
people would have to know about it.

Outraged????
Who said that we were "outraged," Mr. mcnally?
Even if Mr. Soros succeeds in his campaign to make the Democratic Party
his wholly-owned we, quite frankly, do not care - so long as it is done
in broad daylight.
Among the problems of those who have a myopic concern with campaign
fundraising is that they believe it is possible to solve the "problem"
through legislation. In reality, it is not. First, because U.S.
citizens have a constitutional right to donate their money as they wish.
Second, despite whatever laws may be passed, human ingenuity is such
that they will be circumvented.
Thank you.

And the U.S. would leave when Saddam is found? I doubt that.

Oh, Mr. rcurl!! You again disappoint us. Where is your liberal
compassion for the people of Iraq????
And on the mega-buck contribution front, the Democrats again score big.
Seems like their passion for fundraising limits only applies to
Republicans.
From The [Cleveland] Plain Dealer

Plain Dealer Bureau Chief

WASHINGTON Peter B. Lewis, the Cleveland- based insurance billionaire
and philanthropist, has pledged more than $12 million to try to oust
President Bush from the White House.

re resp:364: I think it's only possible to believe that if you're so
firmly against Bush that, no matter what he does, you're going to
regard it as wrong. A few people really do believe that way (about
the same number who felt the same way about Clinton, I would guess),
but they're not who I would go to if I wanted reasonable opinions
about politics.
It seems to me more of an indication of the divisiveness of modern
American politics than of realism about what a particular politician
might do.

A $12E6 donation to the democrats is a drop in the bucket compared to
the $200E6 in Bush's bucket. It is the Republican's passion for fundraising
that requires the opposition's efforts. Why didn't Bush accept the original
fundraising limits? Greed?

Perhaps the notion that he could do better in the election if he
didn't accept those limits?

$2E8 / $1.2E7 ~= 17
I've never seen a bucket which only held 17 drops..

... re 371, 374 .. carter arithmetic, of course ...
it is good that two (maybe three later) capitalists donate their
'winnings' to the downtrodden politicians who have no vision nor policy
nor concept of 'new europe', teh 'new world', the better way.
facing abject failure is terrifying. it *seems* taht democrat cantidates,
aside from liberman and kerry, have not moved past 9/12/2001.
of course having kennedy barzenly lable black, female judges as
neanderthal helped the cause. did he burbble anything about hispanic
nominees? probably, but i missed his slur.

Casting Kennedy's 'neanderthal' remark as a racial slur is prima
facie evidence of a political agenda, if only because I know you,
TS, are insufficiently ignorant to actually believe that it was one.

Re #371: It's an apples-to-oranges comparison anyway, since the
contribution wasn't to a specific candidate. I bet the Republican party
has raised a lot more money than just the $200 million Bush has.

Imagine how indignant we'd all be if a single donor had given $12 million
in "soft money" to the Republican party and earmarked it for the upcoming
presidential campaign.
Call me a fool but I'd like to believe there's still room in politics for
people who believe standards are something you expect your own side to
abide by, not just your opponents.

I'm guessing that's already happened, many times.

re #376 ... you are correct .. any balck female judge who escapes the
clutches of the democrat-welfare enclave/slavery *must* be soemting
of a neanderthal - a vicious poitical agenda not worthy of america.
