That's a ridiculous notion to say that we would probably be speaking German. 1940s military technology would not have been sufficient for Germany to successfully defeat the US on home territory. In fact, it would have been insane for Germany to attack us on home ground with the intent on conquest. The only way we would have been speaking German would have been if the constitutional convention would have declared German the official language. That was historically possible as English only won out by one vote. Without an industrialized Soviet Union, Germany would have rolled over Russia without incident. They would then have had the resources we had and the manpower to launch a whole different scenario. The 40's would have been history before we were invaded. Germany would have done in Russia what Stalin did. Then your arguement falls apart.

Equating Stalin's murder of millions to the US-Indian relations is a big pile of bullshit, even for you Bug. Moral relativism: Thank you for your deep insight. As usual, your anger is all that comes through. Moral relativism? It all sucks. We just have no right to be all self rightous about our "pure" rise to nationhood. Stalin was a mass murderer. So were many US citizens who spread murder and mayheim amoungst the Native Americans. In 1835 the Steamship St Peter docked at Ft Mandan and unloaded a thousand wool blankets to be distributed amoungst the Mandan Indian. They were the ones who took care of Lewis and Clark their first Winter. The blankets were infected with smallpox. Without going into how long smallpox can live on a blanket in cold weather, the captain of the fort wrote in his journal; "Never has so worthless a lot died so quickly and without casualty amoungst us". 44,000 Mandan died that winter. That was just the start. You seem to lash out every time I bring up what happened to the indians as though they were not even people and yet talk about the tattoos on Jews goes unassailed (as well it should). Genocide is genocide. I have spent time with people who remember the old days. Their Parents were the ones who survived the "Indian Wars". They are all dead now but their stories were heart wrenching. Not just about how they lost their way of life but the way they were tortured and starved by the US government all the way up into the 1970's. Unless you are truely ignorant, you should be ashamed of your callous disregard for their tortures and repression. These were children being tortured to "Rid them of there indian ways". Ah well. America doesn't like mirrors they can't control. It's why we have so much trouble understanding the Arab complaints against us. As Ivan pointed out, he who controls history, controls the future. We, the US, will do it again and again. "They are the axis of evil" "Weapons of mass destruction" Lies. Propaganda.

That 0.0% of the population actually uses. sorry, but you forgot about Gary. not by choice, but nevertheless... I will vouch for the fact that Gary had a hot girlfriend a few months ago and she was not visibly pregnant. Back to Rumr's question; "When did you first have sex?" OK dork, when would you have had sex if any girl had let you within ten feet? Sex ed has to be more than a film strip in a gym class. The how's n why's have to be taught, re-taught, and postered where they are needed most. Jr high and Highschool. An condoms should be free and couseling for females who might use the pill, IUD's or other forms should be readily available. The alternatives are babies.

What are you saying? Condoms never tear! And the pill is 100% effective! Birth control never ever ever fails!! Birth control fails all the time (and it can happen whether you're 17 or 37), but that's not what I was talking about. Many of the posts have been blaming the pregnancy on abstinence only sex ed policy in Alaska assuming that's the reason for the pregnancy. For all we know, Bristol knew all about birth control in spite of the abstinence only teaching yet she still got pregnant because nothing works 100% of the time. logic and reason have no place here!! watch that first step off the soapbox, junior... was i actually on a soapbox? really? Don't worry. Most people stopped listening to you a long time ago.

Amazing. But no. The sherpa was more interesting. I love to climb. I don't particularly care for humping pigs up a trail.

The freedom to think independently is what gives the US it's market edge decade after decade. Russia is missing the boat here. On the other hand..... Stalin saw the west industrialize, especially the US (how many indians did we kill?) and realized it was the only path to staving off being conquered. His tactics were open and brutal whereas ours were disguised as saving souls and fighting "evil savages" but was also brutal. He oversaw an incredible industrialization of a huge area and population. Without him, we would probably be speaking German. But hey, as I have said before, "Happiness is being married to a German." Rational has nothing to do with relational.

Uh huh. Thanks for setting us straight there whipper-snapper.

and, studies show, many of the males go gay! Start your own thread big guy.

Whenever there are peanuts involved, I'm in. Basically, we have removed all doubt, once again, that we can not agree on the simplest of points. All that remains is to affix the blame for our failure. I say it is KKKK for not chiming in sooner. And G-Spotter was probably right there perpetrating the fiasco.

When there are too many rats in a cage, they kill and eat each other. Have you considered that approach?

Yeah. Good thing there aren't any other pregneant teens in the world. Good thing that under Republican Presidents the planned parenethood centers have been gutted. BTW, those are the places where pregnancies are PREVENTED through education on contraceptive choices. But hey, this is your day in the sun. Let's pretend your ignorance is not an issue and that Palin's and the Republican party's stand on sex education is not Victorian and that it doesn't lead to more pregnancies and that doesn't lead to MORE ABORTIONS. You freakin moron.

Doh. I didn't watch close enough.

Boy. She'll kiss anybody.

Thank you. I am awake now. Again.

Feakin cool Rudy. It's going to be fun to watch him.......

Holy sport gneiss batman! Quick Robin, get out the Bat-rack. We can still teach him how to climb trad.

So you whack off to pictures of Al Gore!? Please don't share anymore.

Well she is cute...........

You're hand?

Stand in line just like the rest of the rats in the cage. Did you think the world population was shrinking? That's one of the reasons I prefer alpine.

Happiness is being married to a German.

Obama has already weighed in and said to lay off private matters. I agree. What I am saying is, everybody on the McCain campaign knew about this going into the fray. It is not a surprise to them. My question is, with regard to the rat, what IS the surprise? What IS their strategy for utilizing this tactic? Stay tuned. Smoke screen in progress.

Rewind 10 years. Pretend Chelsea is pregnant. What does the media and the Republican party do? Uh huh. It's national politics and the Repubblicans are the masters of smear. "Blowjobs are forbidden but send 150 thousand soldiers to Iraq for a lie is OK". Sorry. She is fodder now. Her mother knew it going into the acceptance speech. I smell a rat.

Free. I have two pair of kids ski boots. Raichle rear entry. Kids Size 5 and 6. Must come to Redmond and get them soon as I am moving and will dump them at Goodwill soon.

Ah. You and MattP have your own special relationship. Don't try to drag anyone else into that. I do notice that he doesn't have that same response to KKKK or Glasgowkiss. You seem to spark an interest somehow. Maybe we should call you "Sparky". Anyway Between you, KKKK, Hugh and at least a couple others, this board seems well represented by the Whackoo right. And Matt is just posting. He hasn't banned you or edited your messages has he? Just sayin.
