Fatties

So back to the topic at hand. Latest reports state that the Russians have been luring S. Osetians into receiving passports for Russian citicenship and sending people to live there; to inflate the concentrations of Russian passport holders in the region. Georgian government states that only a handfull of families that are originally from that area remain there. The rest, are Russian transplants. This is some creepy shit. Like an exotic marine species, Russia continues to spread...

Wow. Your ability to turn every post on this board into homo-erotica is quite... gross, but impressive none-the-less.

I think your understanding of the events in Georgia are a little too simple. Do you remember the plane Russia shot down in April (I think)? This is not an isolate incident. Patch that together with the political tinkerings in Lithuania, Latvia, Ukraine, Georgia, ect. and the poisoning of Yevchenko as well as other dissidents, it becomes a bit more clear what Russia is up to. They will try to get back their old stomping grounds one way or another. That is clear. Prole. Read or take a Hilti to your occipital lobe.

If you were in charge, how would you respond to recent Russian aggression besides issuing "strong words"? Serious question about a serious issue. Q4T: Thinking people. This shit is pretty disconcerting, but not entirely unexpected, particulary when you consider the extent to which the United States has been weakened over the last seven years. Go back 8 years and... oh wait. Flux capacitor is out. I think we are being put over a rock and a hard place. We can either grab our ankles and take our pounding or we can impose real economic sancions. These would have to be harsh and likely would sting us damn near as hard as they would sting Russia. We are kinda fucked. Only question is: Do we want to be fucked a little bit now (and fuck Russia back) or hard later (and possibly not with the ability to demand a reach-around)? I say hit the gas on Ukraine. Georgia overstepped and Russia capitolized. We can do the same to Russia, but we have to do it hard and fast and as I said before, we will likely take a hit. With a shady motherfucker like Moskow, you never know what can happed. (as we have seen in the last weeks) Prole, you are ignorant.

...and before you think this IS an isolated incident, read this .

If Moscow achieves its goals in Georgia, they will have: 1) A monopoly on energy exports in the caucasus 2) The 1st domino of sattelite countries to fall from the arms of the West 3) Proof that all Russia will get from the West is yet another bout of "strong words," despite whatever villanous actions they might commit against their newly freed neighbours. There are quite a few more, but these seem the most immediately important.

Another weird thing is you have been banned multiple times from this site....yet you are still here..... Can't keep me down bitch!

The weird thing here is: The people that are arguing for a Healthcare coup by the government are the same people that are the most mistrustfull of the government and question them the most.

dremel tool or soak in warm water and shave off excess skin with a double sided razor by slightly bending between index and thumb. Both ways work, but the dremel is prety easy with the sanding drum.

Does anyone else want to take this one? It is too easy. Kev? You need a pick me up. Why don't you take this one.

It can in conjunction with other symptoms.

Here we go. I assume you're talking about the old guy and not Obama, who was in what, 2nd grade when that was going on? This is more of the right-wingers vacant attempts to conduct the usual character assination. Damn. When we have so many serious issues to put on the table and debate it's pathetic that this kinda crap comes up every election cycle. And no, I'm not confident in the ability of Americans to filter this stuff and critically analyze the issues. Look who was voted in for two terms. Gotta laugh at how you simultaneously mockingly refer to McCain as the "old guy" and then whine like a little girl about "character assassination" w/r/t your candidate. Typical libturd hypocrisy. ummm, i think he was talking about the mr ayers, not mccain..... would this qualify as a typical right-wing knee-jerk? Now that you've joined in with Jimbo it's a full on libturd circle-jerk. Oh....I want to join....spank spank spank ...and here comes the leg-humping syncophant; riding on the coat-tails of his liberal big brothers.

I think there is a difference between smoking some reefer and free-soloing some shit in Leavenworth and trying to blow up federal buildings and killing innocent people. I dunno, I think that terrorism is a little more dangerous. Also, it is hard to believe such deeply seated ideals (allowing one to blow up innocent people) would not be as easy to get rid of as a ganja habit.

It just seems rather odd how many of these shady alliances are had by Obama. One or two? Sure. There are quite a few shady shady people in Obama's life that make me a little more than curious about his intentions. I hate the choice we are given this term. It is like "Giant Douche" or "Turd Sandwich." If this is the best our country can offer, I can see why there are some that don't take us seriously at all.

"strapping on a bomb in najaf or baghdad and successfully killing a bunch of people (including American soldiers) is frankly easier than trying to do so in, say, DC or New York. " Apparently not.

KKK just got bitch slapped. Where's your report bitch? Front leaning rest position MOVE!

"What a gift! Al Qaida (and others) can pick off Americans (military ones, no less) with far less risk" Uhm... Low risk? I don't think you are aware how shitty these guys are at war.

Give you a hint Bug. Terrorists will be based wherever we are not. They will stage and attack us but will never keep their command and control centers anywhere near the fighting. They used to be in Afghanistan. Where are they now? Pakistan (among other places). If you want to destroy every country that houses terrorists, you will end up chasing them throughout the World and leave a wake of destruction in your wake. What is the solution? Damned if I know, but neither do you. Any of you.

Should we invade Pakistan then? Huh. You guys are confusing as hell. Make up your minds.

Lame. Clearly we SHOULD be concerned about whether our government's actions are making us safer or not, and we SHOULD NOT rely upon the "intelligence community" to tell us the answers. Has there been a terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11? What was the pattern of terrorism on US soil before 911? Has there been any real change? 911 was preventable by many accounts but there were mistakes made by both the Clinton and Bush administrations' handling of information. Perhaps things have tightened up but did they have to include loss of liberties or would truely objective adherence to existing policies have sufficed? And if we are really chasing terrorists outside the US, find Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan and present the bastard's head to the world. But "NO", there are mitigating circumstances that prevent us from entering Pakistan. Bullshit! What did Bush say when we entered Afganistan, "We will pursue these terrorists anywhere they go and regard there hosts as part of the problem" or something like that. Another lie made up by a good propogandist. It serverd a purpose, to persuade the public, but was never intended to have any real truth associated with regard to any country outside the oil states. Terrorists still play hopscotch in Pakistan while we get bombed in Afgahnistan and Iraq. Terrorism and terrorists outside our borders matter little to this administration other than to be used as a mechanism for social control. Follow the money. 1 every 7-10 years. It hasn't been 10 years yet.

Because despite the glaring missteps, they are the only ones who have any even quasi-factual data about what is going on. I agree, there needs to be more than the current band-aid that is holding it together, but it sure is better than embracing mindsets that assume that the conspiracy theories are true. I hear the one about GWB firing missiles at the twin towers all the time. C'mon people. I, of all people, should distrust the intel community but despite my misgivings and apprehensions, I still have not found a better way and will continue to anticipate at very least a restructuring of the current system. People like Kev would rather run around in foil hats and sew his own butt-hole shut to prevent the aliensfrom entering either his butt-hole or his mind. Kev: they don't want to be there anymore than the other six people in there do.

Damn right they should! Kev needs to get laid!

Damn.....Scott....how does it feel to be bitch slapped? I wouldn't know.

By this logic we MUST blame 9/11 on Bush. There were no foreign attacks under Clinton, hence Clinton made us MUCH safer than Bush? Right? My logic? My suggestion was to trust in the intelligence community rather than assume they are part of a conspiracy theory. You might want to do some research about attacks on foreign soil during Clinton's presidency again. Remember, not all US soil is in the U.S.A.
