IMO the Internet is not a valid source for anything.
Anybody can put up any web site and post anything on it
they want.
BTW, the numbers I am using are *NOT* phony because they are
from the web, but because they are cooked in the original. This
is esp true of GW Bush's numbers. As I have pointed out
repeatedly before.
He even admitted that statistics
he uses are phony - "but they're the only numbers we have."
Not even the basis for a good guess, eh? I haven't been
following: Bob, did you admit this?
Admitted? Hell, I proclaimed it back in Dec 2007. Remember when
the right wingers were saying "The fundamentals of the economy
are sound"?
I responded by showing how the unemployment stats were cooked,
and pointed out that the economy sucked.
Sadly Mr Hull died. :( I seem to remember that like a
vulture Klahn snapped it up,
thing.AFAIK the echo had been abandoned and the listing expired, so Klahnadopted
it. He certainly isn't the only person that's done that sort of
Klahn grabbed it up precisely because he had been banned from it andwanted to
retaliate against those he hates. He is eaten up with hatred.
FIDO is dying and Klahn is not helping keep it alive.
Klahn and his type are the reason why!
Notice how the invasion of the coffee klatch echo took place as
I predicted? Notice how many who posted there left when the
right wing lot joined?
Notice how many never came back?
You have personal knowledge that you have seen a great many
msgs from me that did not contain personal attacks. You know
from your own experience I have been very tolerant of those who
abuse the rules, when they do decide to comply.
And you know, from what you have seen, that Hulett posts
overwhelmingly msgs with personal attacks.
So, cut the BS. Try living with the truth.
Disagreement is a form of hate?
Only to Democrats.
I mean we all know any white, non-democrat that disagrees
with the big "O" has to be because they hate blacks and
not because they disagree with his take on issues
Only to those who try to BS their way through it. I don't know
anyone saying disagreement with the president is a sign of hate.
Then you haven't watched much political coverage on TV.
election campaign. Frank co-authored the house version with
republican Michael Oxley of Ohio. Frank did oppose amendments
that he felt compromised it, but it did pass the house. Oxley
said, when Bush torpedoed it in the Senate, Bush gave us a one
fingered salute.
From Frank's press release:
The truth is when President Bush took office, and the
Republicans controlled both houses of Congress, he did not
make any progress on comprehensive legislation to reform
the regulation of the Government Sponsored Enterprises.
It was not until 2005, when the House, on a bipartisan
basis, and over the President's objections finally passed a
reform bill. It died in the Senate in part because the
White House's failure to make it a priority.
Mr. Snow said that Congress should eliminate the power of
the president to appoint directors to the companies, a sign
that the administration is less concerned about the perks
of patronage than it is about the potential political
problems associated with any new difficulties arising at
the companies.
As Frank mentions in his press release today, two years
after it was first proposed, the House finally voted on a
bill reforming the mortgage giants.
Alas, the legislation was watered down to the point of
being meaningless; that's why it passed the House with such
wide margins (122 Democrats and 209 Republicans).
But even then, and despite his high regard for
bipartisanship now, Barney Frank wasn't among the yeas.
I guess I just have to join the crowd gathered to not talk about
Klahn...
FIDO is dying and Klahn is not helping keep it alive.
Yeah, Bob stop leaden it down with research and statistics...no right-winger wants THAT.

Where were all these know-it-alls when the piss-poor
lending practices that ended up pretty well destroying the
American economy, were first getting started? Like in the
Carter administration.....with the congress fully
controlled by the democrats?
And got even riskier during the Clinton
administration.....(again!) with the democrats in control
of congress?
G.W. Bush wasn't even on the political horizon when the
groundwork was laid for the housing mortgage meltdown.
The blame can be laid right at the feet of Chris
Dodd......Barney Frank...et al.
G.W. Bush warned congress on various occasions that the
mortgage debacle was coming, but was ignored. Congress did
nothing to prevent it, Bush couldn't do anytrhing without
congress, and as a result the economy is in a mess it might
never recover from.
*Not* G.W. Bush's fault....but still these sanctimonious
know-nothings come out of the woodwork and blame him.
Problem being: from January 20th, 2009.......*Obama* has
been calling the shots! All `bailouts'...stimulus money
tossed out there, etc etc, is owned and operated by Hussein
Obama!

By the way, you made these comments about the "all-politics" echo. As I recall, it was created many years ago by John Hull and Stan Hardegree. Stan voluntarily relinquished his co-moderatorship and turned the echoover
to John's sole control, just as Peter Bradie relinquished moderatorship of his echo a few years ago. Has John ever turned the echo over to a new moderator? Has he ever taken action to pull it off the backbone? Or isit
still his?
Hello Ed!
06 Oct 09 19:55, you wrote to Earl Croasmun:
I unsubscribed from ALL-POLITICS because of Ross' request. I don't
think Klahn's request is legitimate, but I respect Ross and don't want
any problems to arise between him and Klahn on my part.
Actually, Klahns request was as legitimate as any I have gotten for
links and users, very polite and concise.
As I said to Earl, its too late to question Klahns claim to the echo, we all conducted ourselves by defacto recognition and the prior moderator
had every chance to prevent it or protest it.
BBSes hadn't yet caught on. There is a string of people - including me
- who
would have dropped out of fidonet more than a decade ago if not for Bob's help. That is one of the reasons why, in spite of some of his post-retirement
explosions and insult-fits and tirades, I find it impossible to dislike him or to be
irritated by his behavior.

It is very difficult for dead people to protest things.

And you bought into the big lie from the right. Barney Frank
opposed the Bush "Ownership Society" with everyone owning a
home. He supported, the Home Financing Reform act of 2005, the
one McCain claimed co-sponsorship so proudly in the 2008
election campaign. Frank co-authored the house version with
republican Michael Oxley of Ohio. Frank did oppose amendments

G.W. Bush wasn't even on the political horizon when the
groundwork was laid for the housing mortgage meltdown.
Yet he bought into it big time. He had 8 years in office, the
first 6 he could have done a lot to stop it, instead he
contributed to it.

Replying to a message of JOHNJWILSON to BOB KLAHN:

Yeah, Bob stop leaden it down with research and statistics...no

that statistics he uses are phony - "but they're the only
numbers we have." Even so, they're still phony.

And if I know the numbers are cooked, and they are cooked
*AGAINST* my side, and they still support my side, then
that's just an extra point for my side. Remember, Bush was
*NOT* cooking the books to say what I wanted them to.
