I've been a participant on another message board for several years now... it's an interesting mix of people that share some common musical threads and interests.
A few years ago we split off the Political side of the board so that we could maintain some civility on the "Non-Political" side... So far that seems to be working.
Today I am just cracking up there on the Political side, as supposed libertarians are defending Bush on the trailer issue...
More below...
The ranking libertarians are just falling all over themselves making excuses for Bush:

Their best excuse? The analysts just TRANSMITTED the information to the White House.... no evidence at ALL that Bush actually READ it and chose to LIE about it.
This line of reasoning astounds me. Why not just admit that the guy is a clueless moron if that's the best you can do?
It doesn't matter how much evidence you present. If we don't have a validated video of Bush's eyes actually moving down the page of the report (though they would certainly come up with something like 'that doesn't mean he was READING') then they just want to give him a pass on this one.
I posted on an open thread a while back about this board... when I was wondering whether to invite over more liberal agitators such as myself... the choice is yours...
A while back the wingnuts on the board invited over a bunch of people from a Rush Limbaugh fan board... some of them have stuck around stinking up the place... so I figure it is only fair to invite over the smartest bunch of obsessive bloggers I know to have fun too!

My handle is the same.
