Does that mean you are concedeing the argument then?”

Not concedeing, just realizing the futility of further debate on the topic and moving on….

I drive by Mary’s home at least once a week for the past 8 years.

If she is suffering it is news to me and even then, how is it Tiahrt’s fault?

It’s obvious from her writing.

Who is this “we” that has suffered?

Last I checked, you have built an extra bedroom, are building a bigger deck, have a new ariplane hanger, live on a lake, and those are only the things I see.

Where are you suffering and how is it Tiahrt’s fault?

God, let’s hope not…haven’t we suffered enough?

Can anyone offer a logical rationale AGAINST term limits for all of congress?
________________________________________________________

Sure, term limits are incredibly stupid. When you elect a congressman it takes a while for them to build up seniority and experience to become an effective legislator.

The shorter the the term limits, the more a legislator would have to depend on staff and career bureaucrats thereby taking control further and further from the voters.

Don’t like your legislator? Take your case to the voters and run against him. Todd Tiahrt is one of the hardest working legislators in Washington from Kansas. I’m sure that wen he decides to run for governor he’ll turn the office over to another good conservative!

God I hope so, Brian. Betts needs a jump start.

Could you imagine the stupidity of the entire Republican Congress stepping down and allowing the Democrats to come into power?

Isn’t this pretty much what the Republicans did in 2006 by getting the majority of their Contract on America hypocrits booted out of office?

The Republicans lost that year due to their corruption, greed, trolling for young male pages and sex scandals. And these are only the things the public knows about. Wait until the Bush Administration’s secret records are unsealed and then we will know more of the truth of the good and moral Republicans.

Does that mean you are concedeing the argument then?

Figuring that Tiahrt is still getting elected, and as one of his supporters, he has done far more than we expected from him.

The Contract with America was about enacting term limits for all of congress. It is pointless to then limit yourself when those who opposed the term limits would then have even more power and benefit to you handicapping yourself.

The problem which term limits was meant to help with, would not be fixed by then enacting said term limits only upon yourself.

Where did Tiahrt say he was going to enact term limits on himself regardless? Where did he say that his goal was term limits on himself no matter what happened?

If they don’t like it, let them go hang.

Tiahrt supported an amendment holding everyone, inculding himself, to term limits.

It didn’t happen.

Now, some liberals, who don’t support Tiahrt, would never vote for him, and didn’t support or vote for him, are sitting here saying Tiahrt should have held himself to term limits anyhow.

Absurd.

How is it like that at all?

Tiahrt is not out denouncing anyone for not holding themselves to term limits.

No one has explained anything here. I keep asking, but no explanations yet.

I honestly don’t think it really matters anyhow. The only ones who care are a bunch of liberals who never voted for Tiahrt, will not vote for Tiahrt, and don’t support Tiahrt.

No loss.

Is Fred a hypocrite?
