Not Bill Agrees With Me (Out of Feline Adoration For My Canine Awesomeness)
Al Gore Is Right...Global climate Change is real and man-made. The average global temperature of the Earth is rising due to humans releasing too many greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. This is causing glaciers to melt and rising sea levels, and endangering the habitats of polar bears, the most awesome creatures on Earth (next to Dogs.)
Anyone who is breathing would note that a dog is superior in everyway to a cat. All a cat cares about, is a steady (if not free) supply of food, and warm place to to take a dump. Trust me on this.
I'm not going to pick a horse (uh, so to speak) in this race. I like both cats and dogs. I used to be strictly a dog guy until I ended up with three cats by marriage. And I learned to love the cats' independence and the like. So I dig 'em both.

George Bush Is The Worst President Ever...He appointed cronies to important positions of government who were in some cases incompetent (Brownie, Gonzalez) and in other cases corrupt (Alphonse Jackson, Karl Rove). He's turned our government into a Third World government. He has gotten us into a war in the Middle East that has been a complete Fiasco. He has condoned torture, and undercut important Constitutional principles (Habeas Corpus, Separation of Powers). He has hurt our prestige abroad and alienated our important allies. He has wrecked the good economy he inherited from the Clinton Administration, and generally been an embarrassment to our country.
Dave, your logic concerning man made global warming I find strangely compelling. Despite all evidence to the contrary, I find that I have to agree with all that you've said. It just "feels right" - it makes sense. Sometimes we need to go with our gut feelings and I'm with you on this one. In fact, I may stand to benefit as a result. With the seas due to rise between 20 and 30 feet over the next 50 years, that would put the coastline at about a 10 minute drive from my house, as opposed to the current 45. My property value will soar, and I will pocket a tidy sum. Therefore, armed with the new knowledge that we are indeed at cause of our current climate situation, I've begun to inact my own impact operation and drove all the way into work. With luck, I can sell my house in 20 years at 10 times current value.

I've gained an eye twitch.
Message 7 Proves Cats Are Evil...
NB, I must say I love your method of agreeing. This is gonna be fun, folks.
These Books Are Hilarious And Well-Researched...Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them
Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot
And Al Franken will make a great Senator.
Bush took croniism to a whole new level. He is the olympic champion of croniism - just look at Scott McClellan and you'll know what I mean. What a turd. He did indeed turn out Govt into a 3rd World Govt, but I was under the impression that it had to do something with diversity, so I must have missed somehting. hmmmSame thing with torture, he's commander and chief so that's where the buck stops, but then hey I'd like to waterboard some of those bastards too. That's just me, I'm a cat.
Worst president ever - he'll leave office with even a worse approval rating than Truman. There's something to that number, obviously.
Oh - to #14 - I believe that is the worst approval rating since these things were tracked.
Hey - I like Al Franken - have since his SNL days. I was sorry to see his movey tank, that was a pretty funny character he played. I've red the Rush Limbaugh book - very funny. I haven't read the other but if it's Al, and you say it's funny, then it must be. Al is passionate about what he does, and I can think of no more deserving a state of and Al Franken governorship than Minnesota.
...jeez typing without opposable thumbs is obviously not an easy trick...ack!
Things Not Bill Has Agreed With On So Far:Anyone who is breathing would note that a dog is superior in everyway to a cat.

[Bush] did indeed turn out Govt into a 3rd World Govt
[Bush is the w]orst president ever
I've red the Rush Limbaugh book - very funny. I haven't read the other but if it's Al, and you say it's funny, then it must be.
I took out the obviously sarcastic bits (allowing for the fact that he is a cat.)
Mod
NB is totally cheating. This is just like him.
Heh, heh. Again, what can I say - Ima cat. When it comes to cheating, we are the lowest of the low, which means we're quite good at it. Notice, that cat always instigates, but it's the dog that gets in trouble. Yes - I'm a most dirty cheater - filthy, if you will.
At least I can say on #16 that I was quite sincere.
OMG...Boomtown Rats! Love em....and it's been a lifetime since I seen that video. Back in the day when MTV was actually fun and about music. Agreed - awesome song.
:::Squints and arches back with a showy unfurling of the tail:::::: Pays verrrry close attention to Dave:::
(Pssst Dave, say you love Hippies! Talk about how great and right they are in all of their greeny tree hugging ways. Oh, and then talk about the improtance of The Patriot Act! Go on, take one for the team!)
Sorry I missed so much, I had to take my cat to the vet. No, seriously, I really did.
:::secretly ties together Amelias left and right shoe laces while she sits at the desh - unaware:::
Mod
And that is not very cat-like behavior, anyway.
Better to sit, unnoticed, at her feet until she gets up and trips over you. Or run in front of her when she's carrying something and can't see you there.
Of course, there is an element of danger for you in both of those options...
Hmmm, well, my old, growing up cat, Tom, used to wait for me to round a corner to scratch the hell out of my legs and then run off. We had a mutual loathing going on back in the day. I only started liking cats in my 20's.
Yer right no thumbs, but still very cat like. :::gives big sloppy lick between Amelias toes, then sits on her foot:::
(So your cat butt hair will stick to my foot? And, how did you know that I have "foot issues"? While we're on the subject, was it between the two where the "N" tattoo is?)
Yep, pretty much right with the butt hair. I didn't notice a tattoo, can you elaborate? Does N mark the spot? You say you have foot issues, but you get a tattoo there. Interesting. Of course, your issues might not be negative in nature.
More Conversations On Goodreads Should Revolve Around Me And How Correct I Am And Less About Harry Potter And The Twilight Series...Oh, yeah, and sports. There should be no conversations about that (unless it's about chess or chess boxing.)
Mod
You are totally right, Dave. As usual. :D
Good show Jackie. Dave points out a real peave and rightly so. Please everyone, let's remain focused on Dave, shall we? hmmmmm? Thanks in advance. And yes, please dispense with any sport references and boring Harry Potter twitterings. This is a literary site after all. Let's keep it intellectual. Chess Boxing? I've heard of Strip Chess, but not Chess Boxing.
What in the hell is chess boxing?
Mod
Dave, where did you go? We all want to know what Chess Boxing is?
Right, Dave. Because I would absolutely hate to talk about books too much on a site for readers. Yup. 'Sall about you, my friend! ;)Sigh. This is why I'm not in your top 5, isn't it?
Mod
hahahahahahaha!!! Can't outthink your opponent in a normal round of chess? Just knock 'em silly!
I dunno, we can't all be, can we? You never said I was so I assumed I wasn't! Am I? Squee if I am!!!Plus I hate Bye Bye Birdie.
I did make you those muffins, though.
Sarah Is Great...NB, take it away.
(And it's despite the fact that she's a republican, not because of it.)
Aw, I love you in spite of your liberal leanings. (That goes for almost all of you, too.)
He didn't steal it from Shatner. He's satirizing Shatner.

Have you ever heard of a cat helping a blind person cross the street? Or fetching your slippers? (Not that my dog has ever done that, but I've heard of it.) Dogs are loyal, helpful, and loving. Cats are evil bastards who are no good for anything. They're like the Dick Cheneys of the animal kingdom.
Photographic evidence that cats are evil (see message 9):
