You have got to be the dumbest bastard I have ever come across. Do you even have a real job, I mean besides giving Clinton and Kerry BJ's?
If you do not like it here why don't you leave?

Your web site is full of half truths and out right lies. You are distorting the facts to push an agenda. I do not mind a different opinion but the least you could do is tell the truth. This is typical for you liberals, never let the truth get in the way. Clinton couldn't tell the truth if it would earn him a freebie.

You need help and truthfully, I feel sorry for you and people like you. You probably still believe Gore won and that a small part of the country should decide who sits in the White House. Well get over it. Bush won and when he does again you can pack your bags and get the hell out.

Real witty

[Note: After trying to insult us and questioning our honesty and intelligence, that's all "Get Over It" Boy had to say! This confirms - as always - right wingers lead off with big mouthed bluster, but call them on it and they run away in tears.]

Clearly you have a lot of unthinking hatred and rage. You've exposed yourself as a hypocrite and a liar. This is ironic, considering you were accusing us of lying. Notably, we challenged you to point out "lies" at our website, and you failed to find even one single "lie." Thanks for making it so easy for us to show we run an honest, accurate website!

You probably believe Bush served honorably, even though he drank and drugged his way into a grounding by the Texas Air National Guard, defied orders to stay put in Texas, went to Alabama where they didn't have facilities to support his duty as a pilot, and no one can confirm he even showed up for a single day of duty in 'Bama. Although many people attest to his drunken bragging, crude sexual come-ons and other boorish behavior.

Confirmed uninformed liars and hate spewers such as yourself claim Bush won the election, even though the fair, full Florida vote counts all showed Gore won that state under the rule of law. Maybe you think five partisan Supreme Court Justices should decide who sits in the White House? If the Court picks the person who picks the Court, that's a closed system without any room for voters or the Constitution. That's not a Republic, that's a tyrannical dictatorship supported by a judicial junta.

No matter how many Cheney/Bush/Limbaugh/O'Reilly/Hannity lies you believe, repeat and bleat, the facts prove Bush lost Florida and the election. When Bush loses again, we can start rebuilding the American Republic and restoring honor, dignity, honesty, the rule of law and the US Constitution. Also, we can elevate political sanity over right wing fanaticism, abide by fiscal responsibility rather than Republican waste and fraud, and let science replace blind, backward ideology - make America America again.

We're not perfect, but your dishonesty and ignorance make us shine by comparison. You should heed your own advice: "You need help." We feel sorry for you and people like you. Good news! It doesn't have to be this way. If you keep reading our website and other accurate sources, if you start thinking for yourself, you too can depart the darkness of ignorance and come into the light of reason. There's no reason why you can't leave the 17th century behind and join us in the 21st.

We really hope you grow up, get a clue and "get real." Until then, we're prioritizing our time to concentrate on redefeating the inept, corrupt, anti-American and unelected Cheney/Bush Occupation. Time is short and we at MikeHersh.com have much to do. We gain nothing trying to reason with unreasonable people who support unreasoning right wing extremism.

We support America the Beautiful led by duly elected legitimate leaders, elected fairly by counting votes. We hope you stop hating America, evolve and learn. But if you won't stop betraying America - by undermining our republic and attacking those who love America with your resentment and small-mindedness - we hope you fail even more miserably than Bush/Cheney's "stimulus" plans and reckless feckless foreign polices. If such a dismal level of failure is even possible.

Don't bother trying to annoy us with your mindless rage again. You got two free shots at us, and you wasted them with childishness, wimpy insults and facile lies. That's all you get. You've clearly demonstrated a serious thinking and knowledge deficit, refused to rise to our challenge, and so we're not going to bother with more of your nonsense. We sincerely hope you mature, inform yourself, and become a better American. We'd like to educate you, but our busy schedule excludes further "debate" time with you, at least until our nation is free from the current illegitimate misleadership.

As for us. we're working for a better America, true to her ideals and promise. Unless you refuse to read books or even newspapers just like your tin god the pinhead Bush, we urge you to spend your time trying to educate yourself instead of emailing us again. Heck, if you start using your brain rather than your ass to do your thinking, you'll probably join us! Almost all smart, caring people have.

Thanks again for confirming our accuracy! Best of luck opening your mind and eyes to reality. We can always use more thinking, patriotic Americans who their put nation above misguided and misplaced hero-worship of the failed criminal Cheney/Bush regime. Adios until after November 2 a.k.a American's Second Independence Day.

With far more respect for you than you've offered or earned,
