Doesn't one of those Air Force "We're Waiting For You" commercials feature a skateboarder?
I think that's pointing the way to the new strategy: "Hey kids! You know all the fun things you like to do, like skateboarding or shoot 'em up videogames? Well, a career in the military is just like that, only more so!"

Hey Duncan B.,
Why no mention of the rapes perpetuated in Africa by your beloved UN?
http://www.nytimes.com/2004/12/
1...artner=homepage
"The United Nations secretary general, Kofi Annan, said recently that there was "clear evidence that acts of gross misconduct have taken place" in the United Nations mission in Congo, which began in early 2000 and is known by its French acronym, Monuc. Mr. Annan added, "This is a shameful thing for the United Nations to have to say, and I am absolutely outraged by it."
No word as of yet if Kofi is as outraged that his son was on the take in the oil-for-food scandal, a fraud so bad it dwarfs Enron by the 10s of billions of dollars.
Here's hoping the disgusting UN goes the way of the League of Nations in the dustbin of history.

Darth Philly G: I am reluctant to answer your carefully considered post, but fools rush in . . .
The problem I have with the right is that they love to criticize every program they do not agree with, but always fail to offer a viable alternative. Welfare is a mess. Shut it down. And replace it with what, cause the need is still there. The UN is a mess, hope it goes the way of the League of Nations: replace it with what, cause the need is still there.
Schools are a mess so we should punish them and shut down the bad ones, and replace them with what? Charter schools? They are a joke. Private education? Where only the wealthy are educated?
With a dearth of ideas and a mouthful of criticism, you show yourselves to be self-centered boorish losers.

The Cuban display includes images of Iraqis at the Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad, and the word "fascists".

Very simple. Replace the UN with an organization representing the democracies around the world. The Sudan and Cuba do not get a seat at the Human Rights Table. Inclusion is based upon a respect for human rights and the rule of law as well as gradual democratic reforms.
"With a dearth of ideas and a mouthful of criticism, you show yourselves to be self-centered boorish losers."
This is incredibly ironic given the current debate over Social Security. One sides wants to modernize the system, and your side pretends the problem doesn't even exist, even though everyone outside of Paul Krugman circa 2004 knows there is a problem. (Remember, the Paul Krugman circa 1999 called Social Security a "Ponzi scheme".)

The UN will go away sometime after the Busheviks admit having made any mistake.
And Darth Philly G- when will the Little Green Raelians and Busheviks admit that the Busheviks encourage genocide in Burma.
The Busheviks place trade sanctions on the country, but leave loopholes for companies currently invested there such as Unocal and Halliburton who pump billions of dollars in to the genocidal military junta's treasury.
And the Bush-Cheney '04 team even sold t-shirts during the campaign made in Burma, which shows that the last folks to lecture ANYONE on human rights are the Little Green Raelians, the InstaParrot, or the Busheviks.

"Hey Philly. That story has no credibility."
Really? Did you check the link? That's from a liberal newspaper, the NEW YORK F'N TIMES buddy. Face it, everything the Left believed about the inherent goodness and morality of the UN is a complete and utter sham.
It is a disgusting, morally bankrupt and corrupt organization. It belongs in the dustbin of history where it belongs.
If you want to know why conservatives hate the UN, well this is just another reason why.

The real reason Busheviks hate the UN is because the UN isn't a US puppet anymore.
It stands for peace and compromise, things Little Green Raelians and Busheviks oppose. Like the story in the previous thread about Busheviks standing in opposition to peace between Syria and Israel.
Little Green Raelians only stand for corrupt power, greed, and racism. They hate peace, freedom, and fairness.

"It stands for peace and compromise"
Don't forget: It stands for the massive rape of Africans, literally placing countries actively committing genocide on its Human Rights commission (the Sudan), as well as 21 billion dollars oil scandals involving the son of the head of the organization being on the take.

The time stamps are off in that blogger & Haloscan have different hours, but it was pretty much just 14 minutes before he did exactly as predicted. All I got wrong was I figured he would put "right-wing" or "conservative" in scare quotes before "NYTimes," as is slightly more usual.
As you said, no thought process whatsoever. Just another self-righteous, very boring propaganda delivery system.
A bot, essentially.

Actually I honestly wonder sometimes why the guy who runs LGF goes so far out of his way to make enemies when he really doesn't have to.
I mean, the guy who runs "Tacitus" is pretty conservative but he really doesn't waste time looking for people to make hate his guts.
Why not just take your conservative positions and try to stay cordial on a personal level with people you disagree with?
Is it that he just wants the attention? Is he so jealous of that NY Times profile the guy who runs the Daily Kos got that it drove him batty?
He should take some lessons from Pat Buchanan. Buchanan thrives pretty much because he says extreme things but doesn't get on anybody's bad side when he doesn't have to.

But what gets you some initial attention goes sour at the end. That LGF guy would have gotten some real attention because of the Dan Rather memo had he not gone so over the top over the past two years.
But any mainstream press that thought about doing a profile on him probably got too spooked and just backed off and just stuck with FreeRepublic and Powerline.

Liberal newspaper? On what frickin' planet? Sure as hell not this one.
Face it, everything the Left believed about the inherent goodness and morality of the UN is a complete and utter sham.
Face it, buddy, the shit you actually know about the inner workings of the rank and file UN wouldn't fill a goddamn dixie cup. Do some real research and give us an actual update outside the crap you read in the New York F'n Times, you utter ass. Still, probably asking you to look deeper is probably a fool's errand considering your ilk is loathe to do anything that doesn't conform to your particular worldview unless your personal comfort is on the line.
It is a disgusting, morally bankrupt and corrupt organization. It belongs in the dustbin of history where it belongs.
Are we still talking about the UN? Because there's a bunch of right-leaning organizations that could fall into your description too, the PNAC, for example...
Of course, if you really wanna open this up, we can. but bring a little more than the goofy shit you've been regurgitating over and over.

That media is so goddamned liberal
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) today called for both an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Congressional investigation into Viacom International Inc.'s hiring practices.
According to today's Washington Post ("You Can Tell a Republican by His Stripes," 12/17/04) Viacom's Gail McKinnon sent an e-mail this week to offices in the U.S. House of Representatives regarding a job opening in Viacom's government relations department. The e-mail calls for a male, Republican to fill the open position and reads as follows: "Importance: High We need to hire a junior lobbyist/PAC manager. Attached is a job description. Salary is $85-90K. Must be a male with Republican stripes."

My best friend had a cat named Little Baby Hubert who jumped on her kitchen counter and ate half a loaf of fresh made bread, knocked over a carton of milk and drank it and died. The poor fellow blew up his stomach. True story.

Does it respect human rights?
How about Turkey (now that they're up for EU membership)? Don't they shit on the Kurds as much as Saddam did?

sadly, this isn't unexpected:
AP, ITHACA, N.Y. Dec 17, 2004 — Nearly half of all Americans believe the U.S. government should restrict the civil liberties of Muslim Americans, according to a nationwide poll.
The survey conducted by Cornell University also found that Republicans and people who described themselves as highly religious were more apt to support curtailing Muslims' civil liberties than Democrats or people who are less religious.
Researchers also found that respondents who paid more attention to television news were more likely to fear terrorist attacks and support limiting the rights of Muslim Americans.
"It's sad news. It's disturbing news. But it's not unpredictable," said Mahdi Bray, executive director of the Muslim American Society. "The nation is at war, even if it's not a traditional war. We just have to remain vigilant and continue to interface."
The survey found 44 percent favored at least some restrictions on the civil liberties of Muslim Americans. Forty-eight percent said liberties should not be restricted in any way.
The survey showed that 27 percent of respondents supported requiring all Muslim Americans to register where they lived with the federal government. Twenty-two percent favored racial profiling to identify potential terrorist threats. And 29 percent thought undercover agents should infiltrate Muslim civic and volunteer organizations to keep tabs on their activities and fund-raising.
…While researchers said they were not surprised by the overall level of support for curtailing civil liberties, they were startled by the correlation with religion and exposure to television news.
"We need to explore why these two very important channels of discourse may nurture fear rather than understanding," Shanahan said.
According to the survey, 37 percent believe a terrorist attack in the United States is still likely within the next 12 months. In a similar poll conducted by Cornell in November 2002, that number stood at 90 percent."

SWR, I think the criteria for whether or not a country is democratic will simply be whether or not we think they're on our side. So Egypt, Pakistan, and Russia (and Turkey, which I think is an actual democracy, albeit one that doesn't exactly protect the minority) would all be in. Not so sure about France...

The survey showed that 27 percent of respondents supported requiring all Muslim Americans to register where they lived with the federal government.
If this actually happens, it's really the moral duty of all Christians and Jews to register as Muslims and make the system unworkable.
I convert to Islam the day after they pass this kind of law (the no alcohol rule would be a problem though).

Don't forget: It stands for the massive rape of Africans, literally placing countries actively committing genocide on its Human Rights commission (the Sudan), as well as 21 billion dollars oil scandals involving the son of the head of the organization being on the take.
Now wait a sec...

Well let's see. In my little corner of the world (Union County, NJ) we have the 10th Congressional district (which is so Democratic the Republicans don't even run canidates for Congress) and the 8th, which is Republican.
The Trader Joes is in the Republican district? Imagine that. Those rich Republicans in the wealthier towns like to shop at Trader Joes.
The blue collar types settle for Pathmark.
But didn't somebody already look closely at some of this David Brooks bullshit and prove he was talking out of his ass?

Well I don't shop at Trader Joes. But I am height/weight proportional. Can I still be a good Amerken if I'm not fat? Or does walking instead of jumping into the SUV make me a commie?
What, you drive one of those japanese electric cars? Typical. Scream about saving America while you buy foreign made products.

"Restoring America to its glory rather than the welfare laden hell hole you people have created."
Hmmm how many people do I know that are on some form of assistance, that voted Republican because of their values.
They are underemployed or unemployed. I can think of one fine young upstanding Republican who decried all these giveaways of our tax moneys who went into bankruptcy because he had to have the sportscar and huge SUV, has a child and wife on medical assistance, gets many of his basic grocery needs for the child from an government program and 'should be going' to school because he can get aid as a minority and his income qualifies him.
Oh and he has a second child on the way and guess where the assistance to pay for it is coming from?
And all he screams about is lowering taxes and family values and God.
Go figure dude... go figure.

Believe it or not talking long walks through suburbia will attract the attention of the cops whatever race you are.
Take enough 20-25 mile walks through surburbia and you'd be surprised at how often you get questioned by the police.
Now of course this is going to open me up for trolls to say that I look like a hippie etc but I look pretty non-descript. Walking = terrorism.

I know that Gatekeeper is just having a fun time with a made up persona, but if somehow it really is expressing heart-felt sentiments, surely it is closely related to this red state white woman, most assuredly a southern baptist, who lives in a state that takes the hard-earned tax money of well-educated Massachussetts married couples who have the lowest divorce rate in the nation ...
MARYVILLE, Mo. - Authorities Friday arrested a woman they allege came to the home of an eight-months-pregnant woman — purportedly to buy a dog — then strangled her and cut the baby from her womb. Authorities found the abducted infant in good health, ending a day of frantic searching.

The suburbs around NYC are going to reach a point over the next decade or two where they simply can't widen the roads any more.
Then the oil problem gets geometically worse. How many cars sitting in traffic do you need before drilling in Alaska just becomes irrelevent.

OT a bit.
The problem with cars in general is we need certain cars to do specific things. Because we can afford only so many cars, we end buying an everything vehicle somewhere along the line. SUV are a good example. But for the majority of our driving, we really need very little. I have a mini van and a small pick up. The van has better mileage and the wife uses that for work as well as the grocery store and such. The truck is my commute vehicle and I use it as a truck maybe one or twice every 30 days. If we could develop an equitable and efficient system that would permit me to have access to a truck easily for those two trips, I could get away with a very economical car. The same could be said of the van. Both cost a bit of money and while the van is 'good' on gas, it isn't a 30mpg wonder. Basically if we could have the specific use vehicle available easily in a JIT fashion, we would probably be far more economical and pay less for our cars. Consider the big trucks, if 15 people needed one twice a month and they could share one, then that is 14 big gas burners that are not needed.

You can rent any kind of car or truck you want, but I think your point is that it is a matter of convience. That I would agree with.

I don't get SUVs. I really don't. I had the use of my mom's Envoy when she left it with me during a business trip. I hardly used the thing. My Avalon carried more groceries, even when I put one side of the backseat down in the Envoy, since the LJ spawn was back there. Speaking of him, the Avalon had more leg room and the backseat was wider. And the Avalon handled better and had better gas mileage. I guess if I'd needed to transport something really tall, yeah, it would have been better than the Avalon. But not by much. Not if I needed to carry more than one passenger. And if I really, really want to lug around a ton of stuff, I'll get a Lincoln Town Car before I'd get an SUV. Has anyone seen the size of those trunks? My 6'2 son got in it and had plenty of room!
Anyway, when Mom lent me her GMC supercab 3/4 ton truck--that sucker, I used a lot. Terrible gas mileage, but dang could it carry a lot of stuff. I loved it.

Uh, guys, not to be sensible or anything, but how about driving an economical car that gets great gas mileage, and possibly renting a truck or van on the rare occasion when you might need one.
I've been doing it for years. I spend maybe $25 a month on gas.

Yup. I've had over a dozen addresses in the past ten years, and rented a truck only once (you just don't need much stuff).

Has anyone seen the size of those trunks? My 6'2 son got in it and had plenty of room! - LJ
My buddy and I BOTH rode in the trunk of my 1975 Cadillac Coupe deVille to the local VFW. We're both over six feet tall. The only thing that worried me was when he lit a cigarette in there and I realized we were lying on top of a 26-gallon gas tank.
Boy that thing got lousy mileage. 500 c.i. of reckless gasoline consumption.
I sure miss her, though.

That is what I meant in my post. But the method of renting and delivery of product needs to be refined.
I do visits to the lumber and hardware stores, nurserys and such. A lot of those trips are not planned days in advance. To rent a vehicle, get it to the house and then back is not time efficient and the rental fees can be large. What I am saying if we take a look at this and find a good model for facilitating the need that is convenient, it might be a good way to go.

SWR -The problem with any international organization that only includes Democratic countries is that it wouldn't include China.
It also wouldn't include the USofA since according to the Little Green Raelians, it's not a democracy, it's a republic. Besides the Little Green Raelians despise Democratic things, so they wouldn't want to be a member of an organisation set up for Democratic countries.
But it would include the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the Lao People's Democratic Republic, since they both have Democratic right there in the name.

Actually, the front seat area was roomier than the back seat area, which required a giant shoehorn to extricate passengers out of.
The most fun I ever had with that 4062-pound, 19-foot-long beast was when we would pull up in front of a bar like we were in a 1970s TV cop show... we'd come squealing up to a wallowing stop with at least one front wheel up on the sidewalk, sometimes both, scattering any street-types... I'd slap the hazard lights on, we'd all bust out of the car and run into the bar, leaving all the doors open and the engine running, just like undercover narcotics officers (at least those portrayed on TV). We'd order a beer, sip it calmly, then leave to go to the next bar, and do the same thing again. No one ever molested the Caddy.

I got off work awile ago and I heard some strange scratching noise and I was looking around for it. String was stitting on top of some reed shelves which are about 15 feet tall sharpening his claws. I was wondering how he did that and started toward him and he jumped off scaled the couch in two bounds and disappeared up my weight bench. He's settled down now but for the first hour after my being home, he was acting squirrely. Anyways, a little later he darted out of the bathroom for no apparent reason (and he's extremely fast because he used to be wild) and bounded across the room hopped on the couch and ran right up the shelf.

Anyway, I've been thinking more about leaving. I don't want to be called a coward. But I have a lot of notoriety from my writing locally as a gay guy and not because I can't write worth a shit so I would be high on the list for the fundies and I don't want to be sitting here warning when they come knocking on my own door. So I can make money I'll probably need at another job and might stop posting here as much in the future. Doesn't mean I don't love you all and although I love the drama and all, I really do need to start making plans.

All you can do is move as far away as possible while it learns through the process andanother 40 or 50 years afterwards before it re-emerges again.
It has always been an inner struggle. Between family and my real life I've always been pulled in opposite directions. I should write a book about it one day. Sometimes I don't like my friends. Isn't that odd? The thing is, this world doesn't seem to like me. Isn't that odd? My parents had to learn to accept me. It was hard for them. But still, those people across the street are constantly judging me. isn't that odd? I would move to Canada but it is more satisfying to to be southern and note how odd it is.

It really wasn't that much better than the 1980's original. But the concept was ok. There were just too many suspensions of my dibelief for me to accept. I'm far too much of a cynic to accept most any plausible scneario on tv or movies nowadays. I'm always going "Ahh shit! That would never happen like that!"

Bushboy's war continues to produce death and/or dismemberment for many innocent people in Iraq.
They (the rightwing media) keep saying the world is better off without Saddam in power, which might be true, but what is even more valid is that the world would be far better off without Bushboy, the delusional incompetent, in power.

Without the takeover of the media by the rightwing in the last decade, Bushboy & the Goopers would not control government as they do.
The rise of FAUX NEWS, Clear Channel, Sinclair Broadcasting and the corporate cowardice of the major networks have left America in a lurch.
The messages now fed constantly to the American public is that Bushboy is "competent and good" when, in fact, he is neither.

Slack-jawed, sniping at the Joes,
New appointees that all sing like a choir,
And Chimp dressed up like G. I. Joe.
Everybody knows
That turkey of a missile shield
Helps to make us look insane,
Tiny missiles with their radar afield
Will find it hard to target stuff again.
We know that Social Security

And every mother's child is going to die,
So who needs Medicare -- suck up and say goodbye.

Here's a prime candidate for the Bobo's World series:
Baby Cut Out of Murdered Mom Found Alive
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Reuters) - A baby girl who was cut out of her murdered mother's womb and taken from the crime scene was found alive on Friday in the possession of a Kansas woman who police charged with kidnapping resulting in death.
The motive for the bizarre crime remained unknown, investigators said, though local media in Kansas City reported that the alleged kidnapper had suffered a miscarriage.
Todd Graves, the U.S. Attorney in Kansas City, Missouri, released an affidavit detailing how computer sleuthing by FBI (news - web sites) agents tracked down the baby to the town of Melvern in eastern Kansas where she was found in apparently healthy condition at the home of Kevin and Lisa Montgomery. Lisa Montgomery, 36, was named in federal kidnap-murder charges, which carry the death penalty.
Agents who made the arrest said Montgomery had told her husband that she had unexpectedly given birth. The couple has two older children but it was not clear from the document if she was also their mother.
The baby was located about 24 hours after the murder of Bobbi Stinnett, 23, who was eight months pregnant. Her body was found by her mother at her home in the town of Skidmore in rural northwest Missouri on Thursday afternoon.
The victim's mother told police she thought her daughter's stomach had "exploded," according to the affidavit. Investigators said they found a lateral cut and no fetus.
The victim bred and sold rat terrier dogs and had been in communication on her computer with someone who asked for directions to her home to make a purchase, the affidavit said.
FBI agents were able to track down the Internet address being used to a server in Topeka, Kansas and from there they found the Montgomery home and had it staked out when the couple showed up on Friday.

Lime Rickey -- it's a pastiche on the ol' Double Feature. Two "movies", each about forty-five minutes, and "coming attractions" in the middle. Same cast, same sets, one in B&W, one that lovely cheesy early Technicolor.
The second half is about a Broadway producer trying to put on One Last Show Before He Dies. ("Spats, you've got a month to live." "A month to live. Thirty days." "This is February.") Barry Bostwick plays the male love interest, a Berlin-style songwriter. ("Bravo! That's the best song you've written today!")
One of my favorites, and almost completely unknown, which is insane given the cast - George C. Scott, Eli Wallach, Trish Van Devere, Art Carney, Red Buttons, Harry Hamlin.... Here's its page at IMDB.

The Kansas City thing is scary. But when women miscarry, there is no attempt--none--made to address the serious emotional issues and psychological damage it does. I'm not excusing this woman in any way. But there has to be a better way of anticipating this kind of psychosis, the woman who cut her baby's arms off, etc.

Me thinks Iraq is not going too well, but wtf, lets give the highest medals to 3 of its key players.
Bush's giving nice shiny medals to the three stooges was absolutely mind boggling (By the way, wasn't Tenet running the CIA at the time the Rove Reich got their so-called bad intell about "yellowcake" and WMD's and such? And he gets a medal?? Just asking.) Man, the entire spectacle was something exactly like what the Soviet Politburo would have done (Medal of Freedom = Order of Lenin, you get the idea). As for the comments earlier about Army recruiters getting info on sixth graders, maybe Dumbsfeld's Denfense Department is planning to start a program modeled after that in places like Sierra Leone - you know, forcing 11 and 12 year olds into the army, then getting these "soldiers" hooked on heroin. Wouldn't surprise me, not one bit.

The commander in chief's a buffoon
a dishonest, charlatan baboon.
The rest of the world knows
that those red-staters chose
a misleader as crazy as a loon.

I've got an idea. Bring the sons home and send dad. See how gung-ho he is then.

Miz Nancy sure was mighty sweet on Bernie Goetz on LKL last nite. Looked like she was ready to hump him right there on the set in front of god and everybody. Slut. According to her, Death Wish Goetz was victim of political correctness, yet the kangaroo court in Redwood City, CA delivered justice to the Modesto Fertilizer Salesguy. Ho.

QuiltLady -- de nada. Hope it all works.
Lime Rickey -- sure. The trick, as always, is finding the audience. There's always a huge audience for any current hit... but an enduring audience for well-written songs, which is why Berlin, Gershwin, Porter, and for that matter Stephen Foster, Mozart, and Bach, still sell.
If I tried writing music to sell at Target or Wal-Mart, I wouldn't have a chance. Folk (and filk) audiences, however, place a high premium on lyrics, storytelling, performance, musicianship (although with some latitude -- you don't have to be a virtuoso, which is good, because I'm not), and interaction with the audience, and a much lower emphasis on -- well, on all the things that make Britney Spears a well-paid freak show.

hello will only work with MS Explorer, it's a no go with Mozilla and since I had already set up the blog with Mozilla I didn't want to have start all over again. Although I did consider trying to figure out how to delete a complete blog and start over.
BTW - your kids are adorable. Your daughter has more hair than my second one did at 2!

The problem is there's no such thing as a country with genuine democracy and respect for human rights.
There are some small countries like Finland that generally do pretty well but most governments have serious problems with human rights violations and representation.
Arab governments are just hypocrites not talking to the Israelis. The Israelis pull some bad crap but they're far from the worst government in the Middle East.
And we're simple hypocrites. We ignore what the Israelis and Chinese and Russians do and bitch about Cuba.
The funny thing is that if every government in the world were like Finland, we wouldn't need international organizations.

Although he's long gone, I've found a spot for Darth Philly to relocate. It's the tiny towns of La Verkin and Virgin Utah, right next to Bumfuck. The residents share so many of Darth Philly's views on the UN, he'll fit right in.
Two rural Utah towns may put themselves on the national map by passing resolutions declaring U.N.-free zones. Town councils in La Verkin, population about 2,000, and Virgin, home to nearly 400, plan to put to votes next month (July 2001) ordinances that declare the United Nations unwelcome within their town limits.
La Verkin Mayor Dan Howard hopes his town's initiative will inspire other cities where residents oppose the United Nations' global agenda. "We've been pushed far enough and long enough," Mr. Howard told the Salt Lake Tribune. "We're tired of marching to the U.N. agenda. Maybe La Verkin is the crucible to get the rest of the cities and the national government to listen."
Last year, Virgin council members approved a law requiring each head of household in the town to own a gun. La Verkin council members last week approved a resolution reiterating the town's steadfast support of the Second Amendment.
Both town councils considered the U.N.-opposition measures after listening to a speech last week by the father of court-martialed Army medic Michael New about his son's treatment by the U.S. military. Mr. New refused to wear the U.N. insignia and beret while working as a member of a peacekeeping force in Macedonia. He received a bad-conduct discharge from the service but became the darling of conservatives around the nation who opposed what they described as the United Nations' one-world-government philosophy.
The proposed laws call for a ban on using town money to aid the United Nations. They also ban the U.N. symbol on town property and protect residents from "involuntary servitude" in U.N. peacekeeping details. Residents who support the United Nations must post signs that read: "United Nations work conducted here."
Virgin Mayor Jay Lee told those who attended Thursday's town council meeting that when he considered the ordinance, he concluded that the United Nations already had control of two of the four things needed for a global government, the Spectrum reported.
"The United Nations control finances and fuel," Mr. Lee said. "All they need to control now is food and firearms."
"The U.N. is trying to get involved in too much of our lives. We live in the West and we see parks now where part of the fees that they earn goes to the U.N. because it is biosphere," he said. "Eighty-three percent of our state's land is federal land, and they have made deals with the U.N. to do certain things and have not even considered the people who live here.
"I can see our country's sovereignty slowly slipping away," he said. "I believe in the power of the people, and the people need to make sure that the U.S. Con

Miz Nancy sure was mighty sweet on Bernie Goetz on LKL
I presume you're refering to that snarling, drooling crature from Court TV - Nancy Grace. God, I want to smash the tv whenever she's on. Bernie Goetz, eh? Haven't heard that name since the 80's; they must really be plumbing the depths for stories now that Scott Peterson's going to death row (not that the conclusion of that trial has stopped the bobbleheads from talking about it). Got a memo for Larry King and others who seem to feel that there is nothing worth covering right now: We're still stuck in Iraq, losing soldiers daily and generally pissing off the rest of the civilized world; our economy is probably going to do a major crash and burn any day now, and our country has been hijacked by an Administration so corrupt it makes both the Nixon and U.S. Grant Administrations look like a bunch of boy scouts in comparison. You think, like, maybe you could devote some time to those issues? What's that? No? Just asking.

"This year, as Christmas season swung into gear, Pastor Patrick Wooden's followers fanned out to shopping malls across Raleigh to deliver a muscular message of holiday cheer: As Christian shoppers, they would like to be greeted with the phrase "Merry Christmas" -- not a bland "Happy Holidays" -- and stores that failed to do so would risk losing their business."
We hear these "conservative outrages" every holiday season: the ACLU sucking God, Christmas, and Christianity out of America; purging it of any religion, morality, or spirituality. And while some claims may hold merit (for people to be as outraged as they are, these charges have to have some credibility), all too often, they overshadow real social and political concerns.
Political cable talk shows take "the purging" on as a theme, covering it all year around, exploiting the issue and manufacturing it into a grand point of debate and discussion. Meanwhile reports of an increasing number of Iraqi veterans coming home from the war and showing up at homeless shelters, statistics confirming that this year, 1.3 million more Americans fell below the poverty line, (brining the total number of Americans living in poverty to 36 million) and how even though heating costs will increase by 24% from this time last year, both Congress and the President have underfunded the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, are all under reported.
But these stories, told during the holiday season, embody all that is good in Christianity and should spur greater charity and compassion. These are the stories that should serve as a religious rallying point and bring more people into the church. Christian charities do such work all year long (many churches help the poor may their heating bills for example) but their charity is not covered in mainstream media. And if it is, it's always second to "the moral outrage over the ACLU."

Forgive me for these stupid questions, if I knew where to get answers I would go there:
1) What does "meme" mean?
2) what does "trackback" mean?
3) Sometimes, on the homepage, it will say "3 comments", yet when you open it, there are many comments. Why is that?
4) How do you italicize a copied part? That option is not available in this little HaloScan window, nor on my right mouse.
I have more, even dumber questions so I will shut up now. Thank you to anyone who will take a moment to respond, even to direct me to some site that will explain these things.
