AAA, there is no way you can put a positive spin on this, no matter how imaginative you get. THis is a big setback for the US, as it will outrage and disgust the very ones we are supposed to be winiing over, the Arabs in the street. You really think there is no doubt that some or many of...

Off course they were prepared. They predicted all Iraqi men would say, "Hussein's toppled, dude, get the tap"

Why is it you can kill them but when you have them, you can't humiliate and mistreat them? And how do we expect to put 20 year olds over there, have them fight in a brutal and almost incomprehensible war, but retain civilized values? Iraqis are nearly hopeless.

Put them in a group of baboons and see who is the first to mate.

Police like Tasers because they don't have to tussle and get hurt grappling with an out of control suspect.

I don't know exactly what Kerry said about American atrocities and rapes, but I know some veterans who have essentailly corroborated this type of charge. I know a vet who I worked with during college who siad he had manned a machine gun on a helicopter and told me he fired bursts into groups of...

Sure they would. They are. It's probably because of what he presented himself as, A Vietnam vet against the war. How is it that his combat experience makes him unfit to be CIC when he was awarded 3 purple hearts and a silver star? That would mean the military awards incompetence or their...

What makes you think that will happen? Taser is a supplement to law enforcement, not a replacement for guns. It's a non lethal alternative, like a baton, or mace. Guns will always be here, and always be bought and sold with fervor. That will be a winner for the Gun lobby, "Don't subdue...

Yes, but Mav has always had an air of seriousness about him, so I would not be quick to dismiss the poll as merely metaphorical.

Maybe AAA will tell us the media should not have covered it, for the coverage is only intended to hurt Bush politically. Although if an Arab had done this, no other Arab would have blinked.

I understand your conflict. The best of you wishes to pay homage to the dead. The political side of you wants to sweep it under the rug and impugn the motives of ABC. Because there might be negative ramifications for Bush 2004 and even if ABC had less than honorable motives, is that any...

The US cannot tame the country - that much is clear. It's too fractious. It's not really a country, but various groups and tribes forced together as a nation by arbitrary borders with no historic basis. If the military can subcontract the job of pacifying Fallujah, why not? At least the...

Why take a poll?

Wait until the procedure of this Dutch Auction is elaborated. There may be more rational fundamental based bidding this way than pure trading when IPOs open for trading. Rather than subscribing shares at $20 and it opens for trading at $80. People put in a deliberated offer. My guess is that...

That Halliburton can do this-and gain so much of the business over there - while thier recent CEO is VP of USA shows how cynical Americans have become. They refund part of the money and go about thier business, all forgotten (they hope). Our Pres. and his Adjutant, men who worked the...

Per year? No way.

A galactic size dildo?

Except he would arrest himself and haul his own ass to jail for possession.

Bring Back the Baathists - NY TImes By ERIC POSNER Published: April 28, 2004 CHICAGO The decision by the Coalition Provisional Authority to ease its policy barring former Baath Party members from Iraqi government jobs has generated widespread criticism in Iraqi political circles...

I don't know about Kevin, but in my experience, I never met a ho that didn't make false claims.
