was that a HOOAAH bar? I had a case of those things, the rock! They come in camo packaging and are like powerbars on steroids. tons of energy

that's the truth. those shots from baghdad look downright apocolyptic

silly, for the millionth time, he's busy spinning the one's and two's in Kennebunkport as all this goes down. dj saddam in the HOOOOOOUUUUSSSSEEEEE

but we deal in lead, Jim, don't you understand?

nice sample size puget, it keeps things comfortably out of context, the way news is supposed to be. by the way I saw a live yellow jacket the other day, must be august!

I dunno but one tomohawk missile would buy a hell of a lot of time to sort out this education mess in Oregon.

it's in san francisco. the city would shut down if they had to arrest all those people

hilarious when you try to act all solemn and mature w/ the quote above and then you pull out the baby stuff again and credibility is sent right back to the basement.

bush did not write that. second, and probably for the 10^2 time - SHOW ME THE W.O.M.D.'s and maybe this would make some sense

i believe anything the satellite video phones show me

yes this is the last time we should be there.

Nice! may the temps stay low

it's an extinct carnivore, and it's also a cartoon

meat is just stupid and unnecessary that's all

so be it : airtoons

Yes, I see, so clearly the best strategy is to go on international news and declare a line-item list of our enemies, just to make it clear then. After all, look what our recent state of the union addresses did for global stability. First rate diplomacy, I love it. P.S. I've no idea what your "American Idea" is at this point, but it doesn't appear to jive with this American.

Yes doesn't war simplify things in times of uncertainty? Instantly we have an enemy around which we can rally and once again set aside our real world domestic problems to cheer on the good 'ol USA and reaffirm just how kick-ass we are compared to other countries. Doesn't matter how legit the enemy is, as long as it's there and it is EVIL

You are either with us, or you are the enemy. It's like an atari game really.

Of course you would agree with him. After all both of you appear to be relics of the cold war, where the only way you can identify yourselves as Americans is to have a clear and defined common enemy, to band together around the rallying cry of war as in so many Tom Clancy novels. Now once again we must engage in a fight against somebody in order to prove to ourselves we are patriotic Americans. We feel insecure fighting terrorists as we cannot point to something with substance and say "we are against that". A war with Iraq, a country of quantitative structure and a recognized head of state renews this unity of purpose, and in some sick way, renews our self-confidence and stability in our world view. It's disgusting. Reading about Rumsfeld's past, and how his worldview is one where everyone is out to get him is both enlightening and disturbing. He is a master of the press conference, unfortunately, so I have to see his face represent me internationally every night.

he joined the board of directors for Apple Computer.

Ah the charming GregW government lesson, teaching the ignorant masses how our country works. have not seen one in awhile. I think erik is saying the right to protest this total garbage of an administration is fundamental. Don't want to put words in his mouth though, I'm sure he's got plenty to say on his own.
