WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A 6.1-magnitude earthquake shook Sichuan province in China on Saturday, the U.S. Geological Survey reported, five days after a massive tremor killed tens of thousands of people.
USGS reported the latest earthquake, which follows scores of slightly less strong aftershocks during the week, was nearly 50 miles deep and hit 49 miles west of Guangyuan.
The quake hit as thousands of Chinese fled their homes on Saturday amid fears a lake could burst its banks, hampering rescue efforts after Monday's 7.9 earthquake killed about 29,000 people.

"The political relationship between the United States and Burma worsened after the 1988 military coup and violent suppression of pro-democracy demonstrations."
"U.S. corporations such as Unocal, today Chevron, quickly moved in to take advantage of the military’s brutal repression by getting big concessions from the military dictatorship for the gas and oil fields.
Myanmar has copper, tin, tungsten, iron, along with petroleum and natural gas.
It has large forests of hardwood trees and—once the world’s largest exporter of rice—it has rich agricultural land. All of these resources are of great interest to multinational corporations."

I know what it's called, but she is also v e r y conservative, always has been IMHO. The way she has conducted herself in this campaign assigns her loyalties far more to the right wing than left.
She IS a politician first and foremost, yes; but she is also cagey. Cagey enough to be trying to confound and distract the left from a hard right tact.
OK, that's all I'm going to say on the subject as it's trouble for me all around. But hey, we will have to see what goes round here come next month, agreed? None of us will know anything for another 30+ days.

The way she has conducted herself in this campaign assigns her loyalties far more to the right wing than left.
Saying stuff is different than doing stuff the last time I checked. Just b/c she's attached BHO from the right doesn't mean she's "loyal" to the right wing. It means she was trying to get righty votes.
BTW, I think her campaign sucked and have been furious at her at various points in this thing, but I don't pretend to know where her "loyalties" lie. I think she's been trying to peel off "Reagan Democrat" votes. That's it.

Nope. The way she has conducted herself assigns her campaign strategy to the 2004 election instead of 2008. She's trying to run to the center when the country is turning to the left. Worked for her husband.

No, she's not conservative. I think Sen. Clinton is very much a progressive at heart. She's made some campaign choices I wasn't crazy about, but I understand what she's been doing -- fighting like hell to get the nom. I can't imagine she would govern from the right.

Dear President Bush,
I want to thank you for assisting in another record year for recruitments for my organization.
My new employees will be happy to learn that they will receive free on the job training thanks to you and your generousity! This training has been a Allahsend for my organization.
I also want to extend a thank you for all the Americans who voted twice for you and continue to support you for giving my organization all of the free hands on training. Without you and them my organization wouldn't be what it is today...stronger than ever!
I truly hope you and your people will do whatever it takes to assure that your protege Senator John McCain gets elected as the new president of your country.
This, as you know will continue with my organization getting new recruits and will provide the excellent on the job training you so generously offer them.
Sincerely,
Osama Bin Laden

Senator Edward M. Kennedy was rushed to a hospital on
Saturday morning in Cape Cod, where he was treated for a
serious - but unknown - illness. A senior Democratic
official, speaking on condition of anonymity out of respect
for the Kennedy family, said the senator was taken by
ambulance to the hospital after he became ill at the Kennedy
compound in Hyannisport, Mass.

By pulling the troops out of SA in April 2003 Chimp basically gave Osama what he wanted. That's why there haven't been any attacks on the US since 9/11.
Ted Kennedy has served longer in the Senate than McCain, Clinton and Obama - combined.

When my mum was still teaching the social workers found a child that had been brought up in a barn. The mother was developmentally handicapped and had lived with her mother who died. There were no close neighbors, so nobody knew about the child being born. The boy was in a pretty bad shape, and my mother was part of the team that worked on his case. Not one item ever got into the news and he caught up quite rapidly in all the necessary skills.

"Okay, so why have we not been attacked by terrorists on our own soil in six and a half years?"
This is a logical fallacy, typical Repuke stupidity by Toby Butthole.
In the safety business, we call it "elephant repellant". If the elephants didn't attack, the repellant must have worked, regardless of whether it actually had a documented effect.
Just because we did not get attacked since 9-11 does NOT mean Chimpy stopped it from happening. That is an assumption that is not directly backed up by specific facts.
I know of NO large attack by Al Quaeda that was specifically thwarted by Chimpy's incompetent DHS goons, who couldn't find their asses with both hands.
The real reason is Al Quaeda was delivered a strong blow - in AFGHANISTAN - and took years to recover.
Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with stopping Al Quaeda - the Al Quaeda in IRaq are a "franchise" and have nothing to do with Bin Laden's organization.
So, the claims by idiot Chimpylovers that their beloved Chimp in Chief somehow prevented another 9-11 are completely false and bogus.
AFter all, Chimpy left our borders wide open after 9-11 and an additional million illegals per year flooded into the US. If Al Quaeda had the means, they could have easily attacked us and Chimpy wouldn't have stopped them.
Toby Butthole is a moron.

Remember this name: Patricia Perry.
On tonights CBS News, they did a feature on her and her son. Her son was NYPD, and was retiring on 9/11. He had actually turned in his badge just before the first plane hit. He immediately retrieved it, and put on a new uniform and went to ground zero. He was killed by the second collapse.
Mrs Perry is an average looking middle class mother. She gave the most eloquent critique of the military tribunals and the possibility of condemning innocent people for 9/11. She spoke about how hearsay and false accusations could send people wrongly to their deaths and how this would be a betrayal of everything her son stood for.
It sent chills down my spine. She is a true American hero.

Turns out his coworker just told him that he just got called back to fucking AFGHANISTAN! My carrier looks at him perplexed and asks him how this could be. Afghan is landlocked, right?

Sorry, I left in the middle of my artificial vagina story. The horse breeder had come across Lake Champlain on the ferry from New York State to attend a research seminar at the university. Apparently, he had the vagina in a duffle bag or something and just took his briefcase with him when leaving the boat.
Cell phone comes out, and he calls the ferry company. Has some trouble explaining exactly what his missing property is. "Well, it's a vagina. About four feet long, sort of a squishy rubber material". Hilarity ensues at lunch table, together with queer looks from people at nearby tables.

Putting Navy boots on the ground has been happening for awhile now.
I remember reading on a blog over a year ago about a Navy officer, a back-seat guy who runs the weapons and radar while the pilot flies the plane.
It takes years to train these guys in this highly technical duty.
The Navy reassigned him to defusing IEDs in Iraq and send him there after very short training in defusing bombs.
The Pentagon is spread very very thin because of Iraq. If we need troops anywhere else, we are fucked.

Nothing new under the sun. During WW2 some guys who signed up for the Navy got drafted into the Corps in 1945. The Marines were about to do one of those ball-busting landings of theirs(Okinawa maybe) and they needed warm bodies. So it was Parris Island for some sailors.

Actually, using sailors for infantry is nothing new. I remember reading about the US doing it 100 years ago. Typically when we were invading some Central or South American country to make sure United Fruit Company (now Chiquita) is unimpeded in their rape of the country and exploitation of the natives.
Sailors would be sent ashore with bolt action Springfields to show the flag.
Remember "The Sand Pebbles" where Steve McQueen carries a BAR as a sailor? Just like that.
So the Marines don't have any monopoly on ground pounding in the Department of the Navy.
Of course, that wouldn't stop right wing chairborne generals in their moms' basements from ridiculing anyone who says the Navy is putting boots on the ground in Iraq.

Chimpy's dad likes underage boys. There was a big scandal in 1991 reported in the Wash Post of all places.
And Chimpy has a gay side too, he had a torrid affair with his college roommate. He sent the guy off on an ambassadorship to get him out of the way.
Then there's JEffy Lube Gannon, a male hooker staying overnight at the White House.

It is clear to me as a minister who has counceled thousands of people, who has given lectures and presentations, who has been accepted and considered an advisor to a non-profit research board sitting next to a former NASA Psychologist who respects my professional opinions of the mind, body and spirit, that Senator Barack Obama has been using all of the techniques of a good orator, showman and hypnotist. When I have seen Senator Hillary Clinton speak, I can see and hear and feel that she is speaking from both facts she has accumulated and mastered and her own experience of learning.

Fester,
My post had nothing to do with SEX, it had to do with policy. Actually, I am dying for a woman to be president, I just don't think that woman should be Hillary. And that assessment has to do with her history, be it corporate, lobbyist, war oriented or many other issues. I just do not agree with her on so many of her policies.
Heck, I have caught plenty of flack for it as well since I am a woman, but that is NOT why I am voting. I truly believe that we (as a Party) can disagree on the candidate of choice, but not on whether to support them or the GOP.
To vote for McCain in this race is totally voting against all of our own best interests no matter what party we may be aligned.
