I'm not sure how you arrive at any of those conclusions....or their relevance to my post.

My God Matt! Listen to yourself: "Maybe the documents were forged, but, well, the story is still true!! It really, really is! Why? Well....because all the people I know think it is too!...."

You apparently agree with the neocons who said they wanted to invade Iraq from day one of the Bush presidency, back when they were complaining that the outgoing Clinton folks were obsessed with terrorism and saying that we shouldn't engage in "nation building?" 1 - Firing missiles on coalition aircraft patroling the no-fly zone in violation of the cease-fire agreement. 2 - Attempting to assasinate a former president of the United States. 3 - The post-gulf war/cease-fire agreement murder of over 600 Kuwaiti POW's. Any of these acts justify our invasion, IMO. But I now honestly believe the reason for the invasion of Iraq is similar to the reason we became involved in Vietnam during the cold war - To demonstrate American power and resolve to our enemies post 9/11.

Coward? Pretty tough language there, sport. Now, maybe you could explain your claim. I see no such vote in the record - nor is it tucked into the suplemental budget just passed. http://thomas.loc.gov/r109/r109.html

This sentiment was my first reaction too, but when you see the link posted below you may reconsider..... WARNING!!! NOT KID OR FAMILY OR WORK SAFE.... http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=h...ficial%26sa%3DN There is one sentiment that liberals hold with which I wholeheartedly agree: Free Tibet

Perhaps. But as I've confessed before - I don't really care about the bogus WMD reason put forth. There were plenty of others just as good...or better.

I think the Wilson/Plame team had an agenda and it was just plain stupid to send such a team to Niger. Obviously, someone was a little overzealous in disclosing Plame to the press. Robert Novak has claimed it was common knowledge. I don't know....and neither do you. Once again, a GRAND JURY has determined that there is not enough evidence to bring Rove to trial - and the standards are pretty low. It really doesn't matter what you or I think, but I don't think it's necessarily right to hysterically claim "cover-up" in the hope that the myth will become codified in the public psyche.

Re read the thread. It's simple enough. Foraker implied a "cover up" was involved in the lack of grand jury disclosure. I subsequently pointed out that grand jury rules prevent anyone involved from discussing the proceedings. No one is claiming your right to speculate is wrong. Once again you are either not reading the "reply-to" lines properly, or have given up the argument to your muddy-water strategy. BTW: Vince Foster committed suicide. Even his wife agrees.

I don't believe a grand jury was ever convened in the Vince Foster case. Open media speculation and political biting is not a felony. Disclosing the details of a grand jury proceeding is. But then, you know that. Why claim conspiracy/coverup when it's clear that the law is at work here?

Just bought a Honda Element (2X4 - Black). Room for 3 mountain bikes inside with wheels on. Front/rear seats join to form two beds - great for trailhead camping. Clearance is good enough. Gets about 27 or 28 mpg hwy. Good warranty, about $21,000+ with all the extras, great visibility, 5-star safety rating.

The burden of proof lies where? I was simply responding to a post (Foraker's) that claimed grand jury secrecy laws amounted to yet another alleged conspiracy.

Like Arch said, "Innocent until proven guilty". Have you lost faith in the judiciary too? It really doesn't take a whole lot of evidence to get an indictment. Must not have been much to the charges.

...Given all this, it seems almost unfathomable that Democratic Party leaders would be insisting, as have Rep. Nancy Pelosi (R-CA) and Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV), Democratic leaders of the House and Senate, that there would be no impeachment hearings in Congress if Democrats were to succeed in winning back Congress this November.... My God! Nancy Pelosi is a Republican!?!? Great reporting, and about what I've come to expect from the print rags. Foraker, I'm not really sure what your post has to do with the 'outing' of a CIA agent, or Carl Rove, for that matter! Your shocking revelation once again demonstrates the desperation of those on the left who regularly practice lobbing grenades in the vain hope that someday....just maybe....one will hit its mark.

I believe grand jury deliberations are always kept secret. Sorry Foraker, no conspiracy this time.

Nice trip. I'd like to take the kid up that route. I bought the grigri for my wife's recent interest in top-roped rock climbing - (After 22 years, go figure!) - and my own peace of mind. But after getting dropped on my ass by her ambitious grigri-levering skills at Bruce's Boulder last month I'm thinking it might be easier to just train her proper-like.

You should have called me! I would have belayed you with my new GriGri and loudly hollered for tension as you brought me up to the easy part.

Of course you realize that masturbating atop The Tooth certainly did not qualify you for mile-high membership regardless.

Good call:

We are the corporation. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated ...once your attitude improves....

That's lost testicle. I just woke up and it was gone! That's Fairweather laziness for Labral Tear.

Just had a golf-ball sized Lipoma removed from my left shoulder. No big deal...and I get a cool scar. My right shoulder is a possible LT. On AI drugs right now and got a nice cortizone injection last week. Never go straight to the rock gym after an hour-long bag workout.

Was this surgically detached from the Vagina? Are the FT's and ovaries following? (Sincere curiosity)
