LMAO...will one of you repugs enlighten us...please... :roll:
Anyone can ask tough, intricate, confrontational questions. But all that ever does is start an argument, and it gets people nowhere. On the other hand, these are...well, easy. These are friendly questions. These are questions that allow another person to actually explain their thoughts, and explain fully. And to do so in as comfortable, as simple a way as possible.
Without feeling attacked. Without feeling pressure. Without feeling no one cares what they have to say. Friendly. Easy.
Print them out, carry them around in your pocket, and the next time someone begins quoting from a Republican talking points memo, take the list out and ask.
1. What are the Top Seven best things that the Bush Administration has done?
2. Is the Iraq War is going well?
3. After three years thus far, when do you think Iraq might be able to "stand up" so that America can "stand down"?
4. For his part in the event, how would you rate the job the President did protecting New Orleans from devastation?
5. How do you think the rebuilding of New Orleans is going?
6. When Dick Cheney and the oil company and energy executives met in private to plan America's energy policy, how much of their goal was to benefit consumers?
7. Do you believe in the President's call for an Era of Personal Responsibility?
8. Since Republicans control the White House, Senate and House of Representatives, how personally responsible are they for conditions in America today?
9. Why do you think they haven't been able to find anyone who can verify that George Bush ever showed up for National Guard duty in Alabama?
10. Would you want Donald Rumsfeld to plan your daughter's wedding?
11. Are you aware that no government in the history of civilization, other than the Bush Administration, has lowered taxes during a war?
12. Are you married?
13. Do you personally feel threatened by gay marriage?
14. Since getting elected, do you think the President has been more a uniter or a divider?
15. How do you explain the President's approval rating going from a high of 90% to the current mid-30%?
16. Do you like the government collecting personal data on you without a warrant?
17. How much money do you have in your bank account, stocks and investments?
18. What's your partner's favorite sex position?
19. If you have nothing to hide, why aren't you answering?
20. Should we build a wall along the Mexican border?
21. Why isn't anyone building a wall along the Canadian border?
22. Does that terrorist gang arrested in Canada count as a threat?
23. If you shot someone in the face while drinking, how fast would the police show up to arrest you?

27. Why shouldn't people dismiss you as a flip-flopper?

31. Are you glad liberals passed such programs as Social Security, Medicare, the Civil Rights Act, women's suffrage, federal deposit insurance, unemployment compensation, rural electrification, child labor laws, minimum wages and the 40-hour work week?
32. What are the Top Ten best things that conservatives have given to America?
33. If you were on life support, would you want a doctor you'd never met making a diagnosis about you via remote television?

35. If Donald Rumsfeld had planned your daughter's wedding three years ago, and guests were still there, how many factions would they now be split into?
36. How good is it that the terrorist Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi was killed?
37. Are you aware that in 2002 the Pentagon knew where al-Zarqawi was and presented three separate plans to kill him, but the Administration refused to act each time?

1. What are the Top Seven best things that the Bush Administration has done?
To show us the hubristic face of naked power, so that a few intelligent people may wake up.
This counts for all seven places in your question.
Quote:
2. Is the Iraq War is going well?
Yes. It is going exactly as planned. The plan all along was to create an unending war in order to break up the country of Iraq and in order to provide a pretext to stay there indefinitely. Read the PNAC document.
Quote:
3. After three years thus far, when do you think Iraq might be able to "stand up" so that America can "stand down"?
Never. That was never the plan. Iraq cannot remain in U.S. hands forever. Eventually it will be handed over to the U.N.
Quote:
4. For his part in the event, how would you rate the job the President did protecting New Orleans from devastation?
FEMA did their job absolutely wonderfully. They cut communications lines, they blocked water, food and medicines from getting to people. They blocked private companies and foreign countries from delivering aid. They confiscated peaceful people's guns. They intentionally made the situation as bad as they could possibly make it. It would be no exaggeration to say that New Orleans would have been better off had no branch of government taken any part in it.
So now, because of FEMA's intentionally "bad job," they will get more funding, power and control in order to solve this "problem."
Isn't that wonderful how that works? When you or me do a bad job, we get fired. But when the U.S. government does a "bad job" it gets ever more funding, power and control.
Is that by mistake? You can bet your life that it isn't.
Quote:
5. How do you think the rebuilding of New Orleans is going?
Ask the Bush-connected Halliburton, which got no-bid contracts in order to "rebuild" it, using illegal foreign Mexican workers which they scammed by not even paying them for their work. (When you work for cutthroats, expect your throat to be cut.)
Quote:
6. When Dick Cheney and the oil company and energy executives met in private to plan America's energy policy, how much of their goal was to benefit consumers?
None. Unless by "consumers" you mean to say their own consumption. For more on this, see the below page by me:
"The 'Peak Oil' Scam," December 5, 2005:

7. Do you believe in the President's call for an Era of Personal Responsibility?
You mean like how his wife, Laura Bush, nee Welch, on November 6, 1963 killed her boyfriend Michael Douglas? The two lovers were in separate cars, but she ran into her own boyfriend, killing him quite dead.
I wonder if Mr. Douglas had slapped her the night before. If he had, then apparently that was a strategic mistake.
While I am quite enjoying these questions, there are so many of them that I will have to put the rest off for later. That is assuming that I even get to the rest, which although I am loving them, I may have other things to attend to.
