    Arafat has died

    I don't know about antisemitic, but I'm against whatever you are.

    The democrats started losing the south after the civil rights fights during the 60's when the dem. leadership sided with civil rights and against the old school democrats of the south. As to the rest I don't know. I think the main factor in this last election is the way the two parties interact with their members/followers. In US politics there are only 2 parties, so each party is going to have to represent a broad spectrum of voters who in other countries would have many parties to choose from. I was on vacation durring the democratic convention, but I did listen to the republican convention. The one thing that struck me was that the republicans are good at telling their members that you don't have to agree with our whole agenda just a couple parts to be a republican. The expectation in the democratic party is for everyone to agree with all aspects of the party platform. Right now I think there are a lot of republicans out there who don't agree with the current deficit spending and interventionist foriegn policy however they feel like they are part of the party. Next election things may change; after all this election was not a landslide.
  4. Well it did take a while for Watergate to develope... As far as I'm concerned it's over.
  5. He isn't banned, but he is grumpy. You've got a shitty attitude Dave. Just cause you don't agree with him.
  6. Wow that's the most incredible news I've heard in years.
  7. I don't think our political system lends itself to multiparty government like a parlementary system would.
  8. Actually Bellevue is just down valley and I believe it's still redneck ID though the rich folks are spreading.
  9. I don't see any masive catastrophy happening in the next 4 years (with the possible exception of Roe v. Wade being overturned) What I do see is 4 more years of: Increasing budget deficit Fewer people with health insurance Ignoring more science and more trashing of the environment. More Jesus More war. I don't believe that Kerry would have had any more success in Iraq than Bush.
  10. When I was in France the french all thought people from Quebec were a bunch of slack jawed motherfuckers.

    Double Whammy!

    Too bad about the whole deal and missing out on El Vez, or getting the chance to meet C. I'm sure she would have been happy to meet someone who knew her friends.
  12. I think the ladies know what Mike really wants.
  13. This weekend...hmm I remember or something like that.
  14. I believe the point is we have to start sometime. If we start trying to reduce our output now it wont hurt us or the environment as bad as if we wait to start. Also we should probably come to terms with the fact that petroleum is going to run out eventually. Why not start working on it before we have to.
  15. Screw the place in CO. The skiing isn't that great there anyway. Try and find a place somewhere in BC...better skiing and cheaper. Patagonia sounds interesting.
  16. I don't know brands, but real chains kick butt on those cable things.
  17. Check it out
  18. This is all pretty funny. Alpinfox might have seen the bolts, but he's not sure, and everyone else is just spraying about something they don't have any facts on. It would be refreshing to see someone post who has actual information...not that that is likely.
  19. I am richer than Bill Gates. Just try and prove I'm not.
  20. I finally got the stranger link to work for me. Makes sense to me. I'm still holding out for GW to be gang raped by 20 mules in Death Valley.
  21. Despite your first post your other 4 posts make it looks like you do read, as you put it, trash newspapers... I'm also curious what's up with responding to yourself 4 times.
  22. Yes, as part of the McBride traverse.

    fuck this weather

    Poor Rudy If it makes you feel any better I was planning on going to Smith this weekend, but I'm a victim of the weather too.
  24. CrazyJZ was once the victim of a practical joke perpitrated my myself and TFM (That Fucking Mallot. He doesn't post here but reads sometimes) TFM and I decided it would be fun to convince CJZ that I had a brain tumor. So on an April fools day at Index I slowly started acting more and more incoherent; while TFM told CJZ in hushed tones that he'd been talking to my parents and that they told him that I had a brain tumor and had about 6 months to live. Ultimately we ended up climbing the regular route at Rattletale wall with me complaining about a masive headache and passing out at the belay while TFM taunted me by yelling, "Quit fucking whining timmy tumor and lead your pitch." This is one of the only times I've seen CJZ shocked and speachless.
