Indiana‘s debt. Byah made dead beats out of the citizens of Indiana. Byah left Indiana in debt.<BR/><BR/>I recall America being attacked. I don't relish our country ever being at war, but some of us responded in the early 60's & 70's after a Democrat (Kennedy) started a "police action" that turned into one of the ugliest encounters ever. Then his successor another Democrat (Johnson) extended the conflict finally a Republican (Nixon) ended it.<BR/><BR/>I would never consider any war “tin-cup“, and I don't think anyone who has served Honorably, would either.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the spelling lesson. I’ll do better next time.Legacy Userhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624388336192960176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1166510032120139832006-12-19T01:33:00.000-05:002006-12-19T01:33:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Legacy Userhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624388336192960176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1166463120088675172006-12-18T12:32:00.000-05:002006-12-18T12:32:00.000-05:00Ernie, I'm sure you meant "debt" as opposed to "dept," but you're wrong on either count. The facts do not bear witness.<BR/><BR/>Gov. Bayh did balance the books by delaying payments, but the budget was balanced. <BR/><BR/>Of course, times were better. Our economy wasn't propped up by $1.5 billion a week in a tin-car war over phoney issues.<BR/><BR/>I shudder to think what this economy would be like without that federla sugar tit pushing money into defense contractors' hands.<BR/><BR/>Kinda like lunch at the Castleton Olive Garden.

He was forced out by Party leaders who didn't have the guts to say the simple fact of "THIS IS IRRELEVANT TRASH, NOT A REAL ISSUE". They forced him out AFTER Jeri Ryan went on television to say that Ryan was a good man and father. After it was revealed that the allegations involved Ryan and his wife's sex life-no one else. You want to blame someone for that- blame the moral police of your party. So, yeah, you're right, Keyes was a "filler" and a bad one at that. Ryan would have been a good candidate against Obama. Maybe, IL Repubs will figure that out and stop cowtowing to homophobic, busybody "values voters"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1166387855053852512006-12-17T15:37:00.000-05:002006-12-17T15:37:00.000-05:00Bayh didn't stand a chance. Democrats are in the mood for a leader who will actually <B> do </B> something about fixing healthcare, protecting pension funds, stopping the export of jobs and corruption in our elections. The post says, "Unlike some of his other potential opponents, he hasn't been the subject of any negative stories about his past." That's because he's never done anything. He’s played it safe his entire career, using his good looks and moderate-to-conservative positions to win elections in Indiana. He's on the ballot as a democrat, but outside of Indiana his record would never stand up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1166378238186090782006-12-17T12:57:00.000-05:002006-12-17T12:57:00.000-05:00Bayh as Governor, left Indiana so far in dept that we are still recovering.

The senatorial candidate was Jim Ryan, no relation. He was married to Jeri Ryan - who was an actress who played the role of the Borg "Seven of Nine" on Star Trek Voyager as I recall.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1166370585958319092006-12-17T10:49:00.000-05:002006-12-17T10:49:00.000-05:00This post is full of hilarious train wrecks posing as facts.<BR/><BR/>But, for the record...<BR/><BR/>Sen. Bayh is a longtime friend and a good senator. We disagree on much, but friendship is quite another thing. He would've made a great national candidate, and may yet some day.<BR/><BR/>LMAO. Gov. Ryan got "blindsided" by felonious ativites while Secretary of State? Then Mrs. O'Leary's cow was merely seeking some warmth when he knocked over the lantern...<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>I take him at his word, soft-spoken tho it often is. If that calm demeanor is truly mediocrity, as suggested above, then God help Lincoln's legacy.<BR/><BR/>Not everyone can be a Hillary or an Obama. Thankfully. <BR/><BR/>The road to the Dem nomination, moreso than the Republicans, is frought with pitfalls. Just look at recent history. To win, in those early states, unfortunately for Evan, the far-left element of the party gains disproportionate attention.<BR/><BR/>We'll see how it goes.

Barack Obama is Barack Hussein Obama <B>Junior</B> : he was named after his father (now dead). But good try at stirring up the rubes with racist name-play! The little baby who is now a U.S. Senator was named way before Saddam Hussein ever had been known outside of Tikrit!<BR/><BR/>If that's the best the wingers can do at smearing Senator Obama, he's in great shape. The Mighty Smear Machine of the GOP is researchng furiously for leftover attacks from losing GOP candidate Alan Keyes in Illinois. The Matt Drudges and Jocelyn Tandys will be unleashed to lie, smear, distort and slander. Texas millionaires will covertly fund 'citizen' campaigns ripping into Senator Obama... when they are through, he will be responsible for John Wayne Gacy, the Valentines Day Massacre and the spread of AIDS in the USA !Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/06987859307032067229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1166296224031933282006-12-16T14:10:00.000-05:002006-12-16T14:10:00.000-05:00I don't think Bayh's "Mr Rogers" mannerism and speaking style would ring the veracity bell with the rest of America.<BR/><BR/>But in Indiana, we are content with mediocrity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1166283836854723952006-12-16T10:43:00.000-05:002006-12-16T10:43:00.000-05:00Thank God!
