I saw the music video briefly at the airport. Cartoonish white figures running around, at some point jumping into a pool (I think). Like I said, saw only a couple of seconds, but it was very intriguing.

Guys would you date a girl who is short and fat, but has a great personality. If you would not date this girl what are your reasons for not wanting to date her besides her being short and fat. Also would you rather go out with a short, fat, great personality girl vs. a tall, thin, b-i-t-c-h-y, mean girl? Let me know what your thoughts are.

Why do people from the "Old World" APPEASE Terrorism?
This article is intended to be directed toward spinless Europeans and NOT the Brave one's that have, unfortunately, caught a bad name for living on the same land-mass as these morally and intelligently weak individuals. This in particular is NOT directed toward Great Britain (our greatest ally despite the BBC)..

So my question...ah...how do you explain this cowardice and lack of conviction in a just and nobal cause: DEFEATING TERRORISM

I always knew it was, but it took a GERMAN (if you can imagine that..lol) to illustrate this FACT...This is the TRUEST thing you will ever read about the European's method of foreign/world policy.........All I can say is...Thank God for America...and the United Kingdom...(whom is far closer to America than she is Europe)...
(Commentary by Mathias Dapfner CEO, Axel Springer, AG)

A few days ago Henry Broder wrote in Weltam Sonntag, "Europe - your family name is appeasement." It's a phrase you can't get out of your head because it's so terribly true.

Appeasement cost millions of Jews and non-Jews their lives as England and France, allies at the time, negotiated and hesitated too long before they noticed that Hitler had to be fought, not bound to toothless agreements.

Appeasement legitimized and stabilized Communism in the Soviet Union, then East Germany, then all the rest of Eastern Europe where for decades, inhuman suppressive, murderous governments were glorified as the ideologically correct alternative to all other possibilities.

Appeasement crippled Europe when genocide ran rampant in Kosovo, and even though we had absolute proof of ongoing mass-murder, we Europeans debated and debated and debated, and were still debating when finally the Americans had to come from halfway around the world, into Europe yet again, and do our work for us.

Rather than protecting democracy in the Middle East, European appeasement, camouflaged behind the fuzzy word quidistance,"now countenances suicide bombings in Israel by fundamentalist Palestinians.

Appeasement generates a mentality that allows Europe to ignore nearly 500,000 victims of Saddam's torture and murder machinery and, motivated by the self-righteousness of the peace-movement, has the gall to issue bad grades to George Bush... Even as it is uncovered that the loudest critics of the American action in Iraq made illicit billions, no, TENS of billions, in the corrupt U.N. Oil-for-Food program. And now we are faced with a particularly grotesque form! of appeasement. How is Germany reacting to the escalating violence by Islamic fundamentalists in Holland and elsewhere? By suggesting that we really should have a "Muslim Holiday" in Germany?

I wish I were joking, but I am not. A substantial fraction of our (German) Government, and if the polls are to be believed, the German people, actually believe that creating an Official State "Muslim Holiday" will somehow spare us from the wrath of the fanatical Islamists. One cannot help but recall Britain's Neville Chamberlain waving the laughable treaty signed by Adolph Hitler, and declaring European "Peace in our time". What else has to happen before the European public and its political leadership get it? There is a sort of crusade underway, an especially perfidious crusade consisting of systematic attacks by fanatic Muslims, focused on civilians, directed against our free, open Western societies, and intent upon Western Civilization's utter destruction. It is a conflict that will most likely last longer than any of t he great military conflicts of the last century - a conflict conducted by an enemy that cannot be tamed by "tolerance" and "accommodation" but is actually spurred on by such gestures, which have proven to be, and will always be taken by the Islamists for signs of weakness.

Only two recent American Presidents had the courage needed for anti-appeasement: Reagan and Bush.

His American critics may quibble over the details, but we Europeans know the truth. We saw it first hand: Ronald Reagan ended the Cold War, freeing half of the German people from nearly 50 years of terror and virtual slavery. And Bush, supported only by the Social Democrat Blair, acting on moral conviction, recognized the danger in the Islamic War against democracy. His place in history will have to be evaluated after a number of years have passed. In the meantime, Europe sits back with charismatic self-confidence in the multicultural corner, instead of defending liberal society's values! and being an attractive center of power on the same playing field as the true great powers, America and China.


On the contrary - we Europeans present ourselves, in contrast to those arrogant Americans", as the World Champions of "tolerance", which even (Germany's Interior Minister) Otto Schily justifiably criticizes. Why? Because we're so moral? I fear it's more because we're so materialistic so devoid of a moral compass.

For his policies, Bush risks the fall of the dollar, huge amounts of additional national debt, and a massive and persistent burden on the American economy - because unlike almost all of Europe, Bush realizes what is at stake - literally everything.

While we criticize the "capitalistic robber barons" of America because they seem too sure of their priorities, we timidly defend our Social Welfare systems. Stay out of it! It could get expensive! We'd rather discuss reducing our 35-hour workweek or our dental cover! age, or our 4 weeks of paid vacation... Or listen to TV pastors preach about the need to "reach out to terrorists. To understand and forgive".


These days, Europe reminds me of an old woman who, with shaking hands, frantically hides her last pieces of jewelry when she notices a robber breaking into a neighbor's house.

Appeasement? Europe, thy name is Cowardice.


---God Bless America

Alot of the time you make me cry.Alot of the time you treat me like I'm not here.Alot of the time you pick other people over me.Alot of the time you treat me like crap.Alot of the time you are a jerk.
All the time I wish you would love me.All the time I think about you.All the time I wish you knew how You make me feel.All the time I am sad.Most of the time I ask myself why the hell I like you.Most of the time I ask myself whats so wrong with me.Most of the time I ask myself why you don't like me like I like you.Most of the time I think I deserve better than you.I hate being your second choice.I hate being used.I hate myself.I hate Life.I hate the fact that you will never treat me the way I wish for.Everynight I wish for you. Everynight You are the last thing I think about.Everynight You are the one I wait to get a phone call from.Everynight it doesn't happen.Everyday my heart breaks more.Everyday I look at your picture.Everyday I see sadness in my eyes, and feel it in my heart.

I remember when my parents told me Santa wasn't real. The two most important people I'd never met were Saint Nick and the Messiah. My faith in the latter was seriously damaged by confirmation that the former didn't exist.

US has as large of an income gap betwen the rich and the poor as the totalitarian state of Turkmenistan where the populace are poor and the leader was hailed as a progeny of Muhammed.

But how does this relate to the difference between mean and median wages?

some of you question God, some don't believe in Him, some make nasty jokes about religion and God. You are just trying to blame God for the poor human being you are, when the problem is in you. If you are not happy with yourself, do something about it, but stop blaming God.

- My co-signer has good credit. A 10+ year record, probably flawless.
- Carries a mortgage.
- No other car or child support or any other recurring debt.

What do you guys think? My mother is afraid to co-sign for me because she is not sure if she will be able to get another car in 2-3 months for the family in case we need it, is this a necessary worry?
