YD, Are you really that inattentive? Watch any news commentary show where both parties are represented, and the Democrat will ALWAYS try to shout down the Republican when it's the Republican's turn to speak.

I think it's because Democrats are bastards (by birth ;-)

And I personally thank you for that. We have too many tourists already.

I don't think Frank can get a visa ;-)

Thank God for small blessings!

BTW, I bet he can't get any other credit card. ;-)

What does a 19th century "back to Africa" movement have to do with a

It wasn't a "fire base" then. Certainly there were other bases but we were still not forming up a battle line and sweeping and holding ground. There was no "front line". They only had perimeters around the bases or cities.

Yes and that is why they call Karzai the mayor of Kabul. We can control the cities but Osama is not in the city. He is out in the mountains and nobody really can control that ground. Bombing the mountain his cave is in doesn't accomplish much.

Most historians agree Japan was starving and isolated by 1945 and the bombs were probably unnecessary. The first one may have nudged them over the line toward surrender but the second one was just to push the Russians back.

My fault again. I do tend to say "Islam" when I should say middle eastern Islam.

They do need a place to stage the helicopters when we finally do pull the plug on this debacle and get the f*ck out

I try not to bother you all too much and I am only a few hours away ;-) I don't care if I ever see "the rat" or "I drive" again.

"S*it happens." I'm sure that gave them a warm fuzzy feeling as they jumped to their deaths.

My complaint is not that all Americans are stupid. They are not. My complaint is that the idiots are in charge.

I'm north of them, in Marion County. I used to work in Orlando. Never again. I still see a lot of tourist because it isn't too far to Silver Springs.

The part about his snob appeal to pretentious people? I snipped that to be polite.

So where's the people throwing flags and waving flowers in welcome of their liberators? The disappointed look on Rummy's face when they didn't materialize was hilarious.

- YD.

The way you ooze admiration for the current regime you'd love to see that happen, right?

I read three different flavors of newspaper daily. So shove it.

I think radio and TV debates let you see candidates in action... rude interiors always show thru sooner or later.
