Look - it's a trained rightwing parrot. He's got 4 replies! Oh, the irony. Keep spewing your bullshit cliches. Meanwhile I'll watch as you use the "white" word constantly, and TTK makes racist impressions of Clarence Thomas speaking to Chuck Schumer - among a myriad of other examples. And let's not forget this choice little tidbit--straight off Tvashy's slimy, self righteous keyboard... Seems to me a certain someone needs to come to terms with his inner demons. ...and there are those who might mail order a sense of humor. Guess I missed the humor in your blatant racist commentary. Is it really acceptable to make statements like yours while passing them off as funny? My guess is that 'fat Cuban contractor' would feed you your own ass were you to make such a statement in his presence. I wouldn't have brought it up again were it not for the predictable hypocrisy you regularly put on display here. Dumbass.

Z - Here's a thought: Go ahead and throw the money away on "Carbon Offsets"...and cancel your trip. Or, even better, climb the mountain Erden style--by bike and foot. Seriously, though; don't let the global warming cultists infect your being or plague your psyche with irrational guilt. They're a mentally ill lot. Fly in. Fire up your MSR. Have a good time. But please DO bag your shit, don't piss on the next guy's snow melt, and pick up after yourself. Enjoy!

Great Heston piece. Thanks. Too bad some of the folks here have to shit on the guy's memory to feed their own internal angst. Not mentioning any names...

History has proven him wrong.

Itinerary from the website: "Day one - Fly in" You'll be off to a great start! Remember to practice what you preach while worshiping at The Church of Global Warming. Simony and indulgences don't cut it. Good luck with your climb though.

Weak. Heston was never a member. Because he met with an ex member one time does not a racist him make. How do you feel about Democrat Senator Robert Byrd's (Referred to by those on the left as "The conscience of the senate") past membership in the KKK? Where's your indignation, man?

so it's ok to get racist as you age? how about sexist? Opposing affirmative action is not racist. Quite the opposite. And his support of the second amendment is consistent with his support of the first.

I just think it's funny that the usual suspects who beat their chests about peace-and-love-and-all-that are almost always the first ones to jump up on the casket and dance--or piss on the grave. I suppose that's why no one believes the shit they're trying to sell. Irreverent morons.

Such nice sentiments coming from someone who doesn't know shit about the man. Good journey, Chuck. You'll be missed.

THAT'S RIGHT! AND HE WOKE UP IN A BATHTUB FULL OF ICE, A GAPING WOUND IN HIS LEFT SIDE.

"May I see your LNT certification and Sierra Club membership card please? In order to access the people's wilderness, you must be pure in thought and demonstrate worthiness. You'll have to remove your lug-soled boots, comrade. Only moccasins or flip-flops are now allowed."

Unfortunately, Islam produces an especially virulent legion of followers. I doubt there is any way to ever deprogram them. You're right though; there's more to Islam than just radical jihadists: there are also the followers who tacitly approve of the violence, and the followers who are too scared to speak up. That's Islam today.

Un-fucking believable. Fuck the UN. Fuck Mohammad.

Any thoughts on this, Winter?

I was referring to the WTA, to which the link you provided claimed an alliance. Good luck with your efforts though. The Hurricane Ridge area is a unique little recreation gem--something for everyone who likes to get out and enjoy the outdoors! A great intro area for parents and kids too. You don't know how refreshing it is to hear about your inclusive efforts that will ultimately lead to a greater appreciation of the outdoors and nature.

...and this:

It doesn't matter what language anybody speaks, as log as they understand this:

Just off the press: McDermott fined over $1million. Guess Dems aren't above the law after all. What a fucking idiot: http://www.king5.com/news/specials/politics/stories/NW_040108POLB_mcdermott_legal_fees_taped_call_JM.1f6fe789.html

I like your post and will write. I would suggest that Friends of ONP be cautious in their associations and partnerships with WTA. WTA is no longer a pro trails/pro recreation organization, but, rather, they are leaning more and more toward the radical environmental and exclusionary element that exists within their ranks. They have opposed efforts to repair several primary access roads, including the Middle Fork Snoqualmie. I'm not sure what their "official" stand is on the Dosewallips repair, but many of their key leaders have called for its permanent closure in numerous editorials.

Are you one of the kooks who believes Bush was responsible for 9/11? Gimme a break. And unlike your homeland of Balticfuckvia, we don't lock up our ex-leaders. It's all part of that whole stability/greater good thing. I actually like a lot of what you say; especially about the commie fucks that once held you down. But some of the ideas you seem anxious to apply here in your new home are step stones that lead back toward the ideology you fled.

One thing worth pointing out here. Look at the division Iraq has caused within our country. Look at the constant debate and criticism. Is it even remotely possible that this division and bitter debate is NOT visible to the muslim world? Now where is the debate on their side concerning terrorism? It's pretty damn silent by comparison. But I guess we should keep "looking at ourselves". If American troops were not in Iraq, I strongly suspect that the usual america-is-bad voices both here and around the nation would be equally angry about Afghanistan. Also: I see a lot of moral equivalence claims re The Crusades. It's important to note that Christianity has undergone radical reforms since that time and the Catholic Church no longer holds any monopoly on "Christianity". Islam has not undergone any reformation--or even really moderated its 8th century tenets. Let's please stop digging up the 800+ year old Crusades as a valid point. Let's talk about TODAY. Islam is a bankrupt religion.

He IS against it...and has been very vocal in his stance opposing the Bush Administration in this regard. Maybe you should study McCain's positions on issues before you flap.

That IS good news! As of yesterday there was simply a message posted citing fear and intimidation as the reasons for the removal of the film from the site. I'll have to check it out later this evening and see what the "controversy" is all about.

I'm really not interested in seeing the Dutch mini-film, "Fitna", but the idea that Islamic radicals can control the flow of ideas through fear within societies that claim to be free is an outrage. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7d9_1206624103 ...Sad day is right.
