    The request was for the good things he did... the list was limited to that. Also take time to read the last sentence... its in the quote.

    I've also traveled the autobahns... In Austria AND Germany... they sucked in Austria (bumpy expansion joints)... but they were freaking awesome in Germany (at least the parts that were once WEST Germany). And I've been east west north and south on them.

    I don't know where you travelled on them but I travelled from Switzerland right through the Rhineland to Holland before the fall of the wall and the only place I found them to be of good standard was near the Dutch border, but then I wasn't tarvelling in a high speed car and had to contend with the trucks

    As far as I'm concerned anything to do with Nazi is not good, some outcomes may have been all right for the time but the thinking stinks. Who wants to live in a national socialist homerginised state. Zieg Heil and all that crap

    When I was on a Autobahn.. I was traveling at prety high speeds over 90 mph... sure there is traffic at certain times of the day... thats to be expected in densely populated areas. But I was talking about the quality of the roads. I traveled most of it in excess of 120 mph. (heck... some of it was in a 1987 VW Jetta, 125 mph in light rain)

    I didn't have a Ferrari or what even passed as a sports car... and driving at those speeds was as effortless as 55mph on American Highways.

    As far as what the Germans did... your argument would be the same as disregarding the person who finds the cure for cancer... because they once had an accident driving while drunk that had a fatality.

    If you are going to acknowledge the bad... you have to acknowledge the good as well.

    Hello again, tom:

    That video is brought to you by the network who told us about the death panels... Well, that wasn't so. So, I didn't sleep through it. I simply paid it no attention...

    The law needs FIXING. But, you don't want to FIX it. You want to DESTROY it. You have from the get go. Nothing you've EVER said about it wound up being so. Oh, it's wieldy. It's complex, and it NEEDS tweaking... But, it NEVER was a "takeover". It NEVER was ANYTHING you've ever said about it.

    But, all that's PASSED. It's LAW. Live with it.

    Tom you know this is all down to how much access you provide, but it may be that there were problems and therefore multiple attempts to progress

    That argument of course has always persuaded the lefties .Even when they can't change the laws through legislation or the courts ,they undermine them through executive action ,or ignore them in the bureaucracy.

    Since we know you guys never liked the way he handles his job doesn't mean everybody agrees with you and obviously your failure to take his job away should tell you something.

    But you guys are good at ignoring facts, and making up your own.

    You keep porgetting a very slim majority of the vote is NOT equal to the majority of the adult population agreeing...

    We don't like the way he's doing anything because he's a blundering buffoon.. And he's screwed up everything that he's touched so far.

    I didn't like Clinton when he was in office either... but at least there were some things he did I could agree with... and he didn't screw everything up he touched... only some things.

    Actaulyl yes... people are that stupid. Look at a lot of the posts on this site... (not this forum). Heck... just look at half the pregnancy questions alone. Not to mention the people seeing things that aren't there in the Paranormal forum.. people that believe in alien abduction and aliens that are probing their butts usually while drunk or high on something.

    Maury Povich and Jerry Springer aren't sham shows... those are real people... they breed and they vote.

    Scary... isn't it?
