    Mattel apologizes to China for product recalls

    Really? How about this part from the article you linked: "In fact, new research from two business professors shows that recalls due to problems with the U.S. maker's design accounted for the vast majority -- about 76 percent -- of the 550 U.S.toy recalls since 1988." And what about this...

    Mattel apologizes to China for product recalls

    The Republicans are at it again...

    It's paradoxical but you do need a government to keep a free market. Otherwise by the force of natural selection you'll be left with a few monopolies and nothing else. They'll rule the market just as communists. The size of the government depends on the size of its adversary. You need it to...

    Religious bigotry in America? Yep, from a republican's lips to Jesus's ear

    In the risk of spreading bigotry, here is a joke that I heard describing three of the major religions: Buddhism: I go to hell so others can be saved. Christianity: Believe so you be saved; Otherwise go to hell. Islam: Kill nonbelievers so you go to heaven. I'm not sure which one is...

    It seems that hapaboy is obsessed with other people's IQ, their sexual orientation, and their prowess. Is he compensating for some deficiency somewhere?

    The Republicans are at it again...

    "Anyone regardless of political affinity should get whats coming to them under the law." That's not a condemnation, BTW. Hapaboy so far has failed to refute the accusation that he has not condemned any of the Republican sinners, yet is quick to attack anyone who dares to mock these...

    The Republicans are at it again...

    Typical right wing tactics of bringing up other people's sins as a defense against criticism of the Republican party. I do not condemn Frank, Studds, Kennedy and Clinton, because they did not advocate a policy of intolerance, opposing something in the public while doing it themselves. The...

    The Republicans are at it again...

    You know what? I would Foley off the hook, if the law cannot find anything wrong with what he did, and if he had not been so hypocritical about the "family values." It is you who insisted that you had condemned Foley when in fact you had not. Give us a straight answer. Have you or have you...

    Religious bigotry in America? Yep, from a republican's lips to Jesus's ear

    I find this alarming too. I would seriously question someone's patriotism if they pledge allegiance to the Vatican instead of the USA (not that I'm picking on the Catholics, the same would go for any other religion).

    Iraqi Government Moves To Ban Blackwater Private Security Firm

    I could be wrong here but my impression is that they are not subject to Iraqi jurisdiction per arrangement with the occupation authority prior to the formation of the Iraqi government. They are not subject to US military code of conduct either because they are not part of US army. In other...

    Religious bigotry in America? Yep, from a republican's lips to Jesus's ear

    In all fairness, these numbers would probably be equally bad among the nonmuslim populations in Asia and Africa (with the exception of perhaps Japan and South Korea) - just look at local media coverages in Beijing, Taipei, Manila or Bangkok. The universal sympathy and solidarity towards the US...

    MoveOn Moonbats Slander Petraeus...surprised?

    Lol. You were exposed as a liar in another thread so you try to stir up a pissing match here? Have you got nothing to say about the "a**kissing little chickensh*t" general any more?

    So you found the post but too embarrassed to admit it. Your first reaction (that the post must have been faked otherwise hapaboy was lying) was correct. But you're too chicken to stick to it.

    Did you or did you not condemn Foley's actions? What did you think was "coming to them under the law" in the case of Foley? Foley was never charged with a crime. According to your statement, then, that he is off the hook. So you are not condemning his actions because nothing was coming to Foley...

    hapaboy is probably too embarrassed to tell you that he indeed posted that post. FYI, there is a nice function on ET called "search." It's a little button on the top right corner of your screen. Click it and you'll get to the search page. Search for "condemnation," and "Foley," and author...

    I had never considered the possibility that you just simply didn't get it. Now it's clear that you didn't The other poster was condemning Foley, and suggesting that the defenders of Foley (at that point, included all the usual neocons on this board) might have skeletons of their own in their...

    Did you realize that you just committed bigotry yourself? Which atheists said that there are too many churches?

    Geez, really have to dig out that hapaboy dirty laundry. I guess he was not embarrassed enough a year ago. Wonder why he is afraid of providing the link? Here it is: http://elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1218717&highlight=artie21#post1218717 And here is the discussion following...

    US troops slander General Betrayus...surprised?

    Here is another one. Also note the date of the post (before the Moveon ad). http://www.blackfive.net/main/2007/05/update_funding_.html#comments Posted by: SGT Grumpy | May 12, 2007 at 10:34 PM Petraeus’s letter indicates that we are going to lose this war regardless of the amount of...
