Alright, LW has said in a recent post that there is a lack of actual debate in this JU site, especially with regards to the liberal side. I will give a topic, and state a reason in support and opposition to the topic. I ask that there is no mention of leaders in either political party, in fact it would be helpful if the parties were not mentioned at
The rating system was already in place, and so was the company policy. But the rating system failed to some degree. If it was working properly the mod would never have been allowed in or the rating would have been what it is now.
She and others did see a problem and tried to do something, and maybe it was the Senate shedding light on the game that caused the industry to revise the rating. True it pales in comparison to child molestation, but she actions were effective. IG
You could just let her go. And that would be satisfying. You made you bed now lie in it. You owe this lady nothing. But yet you know what the right thing to do is. Now I can say you should be the better person. That two wrongs don’t make a right. But you already know that. The question I have is this. How do you wish your sons to see the world? As a place where karma reigns, and it’s everyman for himself, an eye for an eye? Or a world
Question... I know MRE's, what are DFAC? IG
England had a monarch, but they were also Democratic. The "problem" with england is that there is no set date when the Parliment took over the reigns from the Monarch. Is was around the turn of the century though. IG
I went and talked to him. And an excellent post it was! Brief, informative, to the point, with just the right amount of personal information. IG
What was Ireland during the potato famine? That's the problem with the question. There is no straght definition of Democracy. The famine hit in 1846, and Ireland was governed by England which at that time was a Parliamentary form of governmet. So the case could be made that a democratic country had a f
Before I answer, define Democratic. IG
I live about 30 minutes from on eand went there with the kids about 2 weeks ago. We also have 2 within an hours drive. Double features, no less. There is nothing like eating a sub or McD's Big Mac while watching a movie with the family. Can you imagine! Bring the cooler kids, we're gong to the drive-in! The snackbar, intermisison, hotdogs and hamburgers! At a movie! IG
An example. Remember the scene in Python's Holy Grail. "It's just a flesh wound"? You don't go on television saying, "boy were we screwed yesterday". No, you act like a boxer who just got it, or a poker player who was just dealt a very bad hand. You put on your gameface and go to it. Yes, the attack was successful in the fact that 3 package bombs all went off within minutes of each other causing loss of life and temporarily caused panic and t
I should have said the liberal leadership, which is the same of the LLL left. I applogize for the implication that it meant the rank and file. I rhink that if the rank and file from both parties got together we would find more opinion similarities than differences, but to me the ultra-conservatives are
So who does everyone remember? A bunch of lost colonist! Dude, it was their snazzy clothes! Big buckles and big hats. they were da bomb! IG
But as you said, there are different types of liberals. It seems from what I am readin gin the other posts, many are painint liberals with as broad a brush as possible. This was an acknowledgement of the fact that until they have been, they dont appear serious about the fight on terrorism, But
The cleanup and recovery are going on, the british police are lookig for the bombers. The threat level for the transit system has been raised to Oragne (although I am not quite sure why tell us, how can you be more vigilant), Blair is at Downing street. Thoughts and prayers are going to the Londoners. Statements of sympathy have gone out from our branches of governemt. It was a dispicable act. The perpetrators will be hunted down an
and I do not give a damn how many I offend by saying so. There is no offence taken. We are not what we were, but we are not yet what we will become. We are, to some degree, all the things you’ve said. But we are still here. In just under 230 years, no nation has gone though what we’ve gone thou
I confess, I smiled as I watched them fall. Dude, got to admit. Kinda cold. But, as we go through life, our views change. Sorry it took this to cause your epiphany. But I guess, Welcome? From an American. IG
Expelling the foreign nationals on American soil will be a problem but do-able. But the amount of support needed to expell an entire group of US citizens, by constitutional amendment, will have to be enormous. Even for an executive order will have to be massive. The one problem is that there has not been an attack on Amerinca soil in almost 4 years. And the leaders of the attacks on 9/11 were on visas and I do not think were American
No nation is going to expell its citizens. Won't happen. Bush would never sign the order. So that leaves you with the foreign nationals. That would be an uphill climb, but do-able. It would be a hard sell here, not so much France though. It would depend on what rights are given to FN when they are in a host country. SCOTUS allowed the interment but expulsion is different. You have no proof, just the remote possibility of ill intent.
I am just pointing out that this road has been traveled before, many times. It must be walked carefully. IG
You would have to check the law on exportation of people holding visas or work passes. Also then what if they are only 1/2 Arab or 1/4 Arab? IG
Oh yeah, we learned from that mistake, didn't we. Apparently not. IG
What about the ones that are born here now? No country of origin means eirther internment or the creation of a country. IG
Wow! I thought you might be thinking internment (sanctioned by SCOTUS), or perhaps a marking of some sort, (ah yes, Ve love der sound of the boxcars as they move through Poland) but you went right to a Liberia type solution. Give them their own country. I would live to see Bush sign that Executive order. IG
