I think you guys may have misunderstood msfe's post. He may just be re-stating his personal motto. Or maybe there was a glitch in the msfe software, causing it accidentally to print programmer's comments that normally remain invisible during operation. I believe the code goes...

Not a bad idea, except that the graduation requirement opens up a number of possible complications. For instance, presuming that the amount of of money is substantial, it would put rather a lot of pressure on some professors to compromise their requirements for giving a student a "pass."...

U.S. Finds Iraq Contractor with No Political Ties (2003-04-19) -- The U.S. government has awarded a $7.9 Billion contract for the redevelopment of Iraq's oil industry to the only company it could find that had no political connections. The White House, under pressure from Democrats to avoid...

In terms of religion mixed in with government and the practice of "sexual apartheid," Baathist Iraq was atypically secular and egalitarian for the region: Still, after having spent years repressing and subverting religious organizations in Iraq, Saddam finally turned, like Stalin, to an attempt...

I see msfe has been busy posting articles all over ET today, but, for some strange reason, he still hasn't found the time to back up his claim, above, that the "New American Century" represented some "racis[t]" "fascist neocon" agenda. Has he read the Project for a New American Century report...

Frankly, Swoop, your response suggests a fundamental misunderstanding about the difference between an op-ed and a piece of reportage. VDH's op-ed offers a simplified version of theories and positions he's expounded at great length in several books, as applied to current events. The issue...

I don't think VDH treats the idea as an absolute: He's not arguing that a platoon of small-d democrats would be a match for a nation of totalitarians. [b] Scoreboard. [b] while being slaughtered in great numbers... [b] The kill ratios were obscene - often almost as bad as...

Victor Davis Hanson on THE ARAB DISCONNECT: http://www.nypost.com/postopinion/opedcolumnists/73720.htm EXCERPT:

I wonder what the chances are that msfe has actually read the Project for a New American Century report - at least beyond the contributor's list, which he may previously have tried to employ in an effort to spread (presumed) guilt by (Jewish) association. My guess is that the odds of him...

Day-trade the e-minis, like all fascist racist imperialists... and you?

Apology accepted - even though you've now given msfe inspiration for another of his ludicrously ill-informed comments. By the way, are you aware that Le Pen opposed the war?

What? Are you referring to me? I was basically agreeing with you. I repeat: Milliere appears to be exaggerating unjustifiably. More reasonable projections, which remain undependable even if more reasonable, suggest the possibility of a 33% N. and W. African descendant French population by...

The French Muslims are, on the whole, relatively uneducated and poor. That's not a stereotype. There are differing projections and counting methods: Some begin with the larger number of North Africans rather than Muslims in France. Others presume continuing immigration. I agree that...

Swoop, Thought you said you were in France. Apparently, your US media outlets haven't been keeping you very well-informed either. I'm not sure whether it's your fault or theirs. As for the BULL DURHAM event, I'm not now sure we're talking about the same thing, or, if we are, if you're also...

[/b] No, it's very much the point - especially when you try to turn individual acts into an indictment of Bush. [b] Yes. There've been numerous excesses: Kurds denied a chance to speak up for their human rights and against Saddam at teach-ins and peace protests; prominent...

The accusation is spurious. In every one of the examples cited in that article - including the mis-reported shopping mall incident - the complaints or other actions "against" the war protestors were made by private individuals or corporations. Even in the case of the First Lady, whose role...

In my words, not the Administration's: US policy treats Islamic fascism as a clear and present danger to the US and its allies. The bill of particulars against Saddam Hussein went far beyond his military's current possession of usable WMDs, but extended to a pattern of behavior and frequently...
