Who said anything about keeping oil prices high as an objective? That's just a bonus consequence IMHO. Control is the key objective here. In warfare, you don't truly have control unless you occupy realestate. Saddam had already expressed interest in Fina and Lukoil as his main operators while...

IMHO Iran wants nukes for the sole purpose of political leverage. Unlike a terrorist cell that can fade back into the shadows, it has to stand on it's global political feet and take a full-fledge retaliation and it knows it; regardless of what purpose it claims to have rights to push that...

Oh gracious me, leaked information about possible troop strength changes to an enemy that can't/won't engage in open field combat. Whatever are we going to do? It spells doom for sure. LOL. A newspaper operating at a profit prints "leaked" information in order to get a "scoop" on it's...

What makes you think Iran will actually use them? Nukes have been an invaluable bargaining chip until the end of the Cold War. The mere threat of using them has given more power to the nations that possess them than damn near any other political tactic ever employed. It's not their use that we...

We went wrong by going into Iraq in the first place. As you said, a limited engagement to further cripple Saddam militarily would have sufficed if it were indeed the true objective to force him into compliance with UN weapons inspection. He would have only taken so much damage to his...

So they found a pile of rusty 20 year old delivery devices and Dubya's off the hook? ROFLMAO!!! Well Dick Tracy, I see you've found the empty bag. Where's the peanuts? Use of this outdated crap on US forces during invasion? LOL! If you actually knew anything about the stuff you would...

If my memory serves me correctly, aren't you the same moron that suggested I look up a definition to help support one of your many ill-informed positions? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1093971#post1093971 Did you bother to check it yourself this time?

LOL; amusing. Some people are just so stuck on finding excuses for supporting Dubya that they are willing to believe damn near anything. Yes, what sits inside this bunker will exonerate Dubya's stupidity, but no, we don't want you to look inside. LOL. That tells me that: A) The bunker's...

That doesn't mean that they were involuntary forced into duty against their will. There were plenty of people that stepped forward after 9/11, and there are still those that do, even over the age of 50. Individuals aren't pressed into duty, units are. Since the full-pension period for...

LOL mahram, did you even bother to read the entire article you posted? If you had, you would have clearly seen WHY you were called a jackass: "Since 60 Minutes broadcast this story last fall, Howell's date to report for duty has been postponed, and he's still waiting to see if he'll get an...

"mar·riage ( P ) Pronunciation Key (mrj) n. 1) a)The legal union of a man and woman as husband and wife. b)The state of being married; wedlock. c)A common-law marriage. d) A union between two persons having the customary but usually not the legal force of marriage...

Oh do please show the rest of us where this definition exists. The only "defining" that I see here is an attempt by some to write one. Fifty percent of the same individuals trying to do so claim to hold the sanctity of marriage so high, they get divorced. Pa-leeze, thump your bibles to the...

And they are all doing so well? None of them needs further work? Using this logic, it's time for the Senate to rack up yet another POS legislation that goes nowhere. If Dubyah actually gave a damn about this issue, he would have tackled it years ago. If the Senate met the IQ requirement...

http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=2040108&page=1 Of all the problems and issues that require immediate attention and work from Washington: - 12 million + illegal immigrants saturating middle America - border and port security is a joke - Osama Bin Laden is still on the loose - Iraq is...

Ethics training is provided by employers to employees that deal with people, property, and laws in one form or another. It exists within every profession; doctors, lawyers, salesmen, policemen, etc. I'm sure quite a few, if not most, brokerages and prop firms also do the same for their...

Amen. For the life of me, I have no idea why. In another thread on this subject, you wanted to throw these boys to the Hague. Have you sobered up or what?

Five paragraphs written by Dr. Bel on the subject that praises this new procedure and you want to pull out one sentence, without even completing the statement, in order to try to keep your "turd" afloat; typical. Oh do please allow me to post the rest of that statement for you: "However, this...

Just exactly who's job do you think it is to keep the population safe from the spread of disease and pestilence in this country? Or do you not consider that a part of healthcare? Aside from that, our government ALREADY provides it's citizens with a form of socialized care: Medicare and...

Yes I have. I have already answered your question to this issue on my original post in this thread and the last one. It's clearly nobody's fault you can't comprehend what you read but you. Get hooked on phonics if you must, but you have some serious issues with reading comprehension. LOL, no...

LOL, look at you. You're so worked up over this you can't even edit and repost without slobbering all over it. LOL, what's hilarious is that you have little to no memory capacity. The tribunal to indict, try, and convict ALL who were involved in Balkan atrocities, not just Serbs, was initiated...
