TasT: Sensible approach. I like the slogan, though: Save our Troops ... Use Nukes!
Osama, the psychopathic mass-murderer, has received the relgious blessing to nuke an American city (we'll see if he keeps his campaign promise to only attack red states). The authority to proceed and nuke America in the name of Allah came by way of permission from a Saudi cleric, a holy man. How do we respond? My suggestion is that we promulgate to the w
Excerpt from The Associated Press: "France's retaliation prompted mob violence in Ivory Coast's national commercial capital, Abidjan, as thousands of angry loyalists armed with machetes, axes and clubs took to the streets in search of French targets.

The protocol I employ when meeting people from different Countries - cultures- is to emphasize what I find to be positive about that particular County and/or culture. This generally results in a gratifying experience. Likewise, my grandmother often reminds me that there is a reason God gave us two ears and only one mouth. Nonetheless, I find the left to be generally less tolerant than the right. w\Whatever happened to the concept of the loyal oppos
Gee... walk through a scanner (a walk in the park), or crash into a sky scrapper, and die? I'll have to get back to you on that one.

Distraught over the defeat of kerry, Cameron Diaz and her pubescent boyfriend, Justine Tumbleweed, emerged pugnaciously drunk from a chic L.A. night spot, assaulting a photographer for doing his job: taking their picture. Cameron Diaz, not only physically assailed this average snap shot Joe just out there grinding out a living, with her fist and feet, but

Counting large numbers of votes accurately is likely an invariable problem to be around for many more moons. I am dubious that the alleged inaccuracies are the result of wonton mischief. More likely it's a function of system overload. Honest, reliable, and as accurate a result as possible is always preferred. Intuitively, I suspect glitches, mistakes, in the end, cancel each other out.
At first, I found Eminem's slim shady satire to be droll. His movie and soundtrack 8 mile, however, really seemed to capture that ineffable something that was lingering out there at the time. His message, attitude, was transcendent; it resonated in universal tones. Now, however, he's gone flat. He's becoming a caricature of himself. Almost Vanilla Ice like. Disgraceful. Save your career and take some time off. Peace out!
CrispE: Counting large numbers of votes accurately seems not to be so much a problem plagued by wonton mishcief, but rather one of system overload. Naturally, I desire an honest, reliable, and as accurate result as possible. Intutitvely, I suspect gliches, mistakes, in the end, cancel each other out. Who knows?
"Disappointment." What is the allocation of economic resources premised on? In a nutshell, your circular argument boils down to "expecting better" from America. Why? Seriously, what do you want, expect? You resent America because you are forced to "bend over". Your Country should shed America's economic yoke of repression. Why not boycott America. 90% of your goods and services are realized by way of crossing the border to access our markets. Stop crossing the border for to p
"There is, however, one further step of analysis that is possible within the framework of social-scientific theorizing. This an attempt to clarify the relation between theoretical insights (all of them subject to empirical testing and therefore never final) and praxis based on this or that value. Put differently, the social scientist can make statements of an ‘if/then’ type: 'If your values are X, then situation Y will accord with your values more than
Crispe: I don't want a fusillade of wild accusations!
I don't believe in practicing/preaching my politics from the lofty view of having my head in the clouds. I am grown up enough to understand that are no magic wand solutions. Accordingly, for me, the fundamental issue is whether America, as a world power, is a source of good or evil? Is America a shinning city on a hill, or is it the big bully you paint it out to be? For sure, some people have it better than others in the world. Bill Gates t
You make serious assertions, indeed. Be specific with your information. Tell us which counties, the actual number of registered repub/dems. in same, and so on? Also, if you have information that the machine maker conspired to defraud the American people, contact the Justice Department immediately.

"His extreme narcissistic personality does not enable him to see fault in himself. Interesting observation; common among born-agains." Substitute blacks, Jews, Muslims for "born-agains" and what then would one, however reluctantly, be forced to conclude about you? Your romantic analysis wildly leaps to unfounded conclusions.

Col Gene: I agree wholeheartedly. Oil is a plague. We need an alternative to fuel our economy. But many of the same liberals who pay lip service to finding alternative sources of fuel are also the very same people I see driving SUV's. Sacrifice is not something they understand. All they know how to do is point the finger of blame. They demand instant solutions; they demand magic wand miracles, while offering nothing of substance. Poverty exi
