Current Events - October 2006

I'm refering to the "flags of our fathers" movie that came out today.
Is it getting old for the rah-rah around the flag stuff?

Assume that the girls wearing these two outfits are wearing them as a matter of personal choice, and haven't been coerced into wearing them. Both outfits include a veil that covers at least part of the face.

If you could ban one of them, which would you choose? And why?

Here is Outfit A:

I can't believe this. That chick is psycho. She deserves the death penalty-after all, that's what she was trying to do right? Kill herself? Instead, she takes someone else's life-dumb *ss! I know she doesn't qualify for that or if Georgia allows that but she deserves the harshest punishment that can be handed to her.

What are your thoughts, should she carry on the fight, or just shup up, and go.. (A long long way ,is my opinion )

It's a mess there. I get frustrated reading about the attacks, the deaths. Why is all this happening? I don't know the history. Could someone give some specific details to understand this whole situation? What country wants what.....and what role is USA playing in all that. I read news items, but they don't give the complete picture. Thank you!

I just got done reading an article on Yahoo! news. First they take away dodgeball now tag? WTF is this world coming to when schools are forced to take the fun out of education for fear of frivilous lawsuits from greedy money hungry parents? Am I overreacting here? Is this something that warrants attention from school boards? What would you do to help keep the fun in education while protecting schools from frivious lawsuits?

Oil prices continue to drop (currently $57.00 a barrel), yet the price at the pump continues to steadily increase since it's sharp drop last month. When oil was $60+, it was $1.99 for gas here, yet, now it's $57.00 a barrel, and the price has crept up to between $2.09 and $2.19. Don't gas stations/oil companies realize that the average consumer is not ignorant and that they can no longer get away with saying they "can't control" the prices because the cost of oil overrules that? I know that we have no choice but to continue to buy gas, and yes, the prices are alot lower than they used to be, but that is no excuse, since gas should have NEVER been that high to begin with. This still is not "relief" to me, and I doubt it is to anyone else, especially when we continue to witness gas/oil companies growing profit margins.

Do you think it was "Kenny-Boy's" best friend, Mr. Bush, who after being convicted of massive fraud, was exonerated...

For all the people who have this same mind-set as Mr. Lay, when it happens to you, DON"T be surprised. A pathalogical liar gets what they deserve, and God handed down to Mr. Lay what he deserved. He taxed his a$$ mentally in the last 2-3 years of his life, and it killed him.

Is it God or is is Karma that Ken Lay is minus 72"?

Just curious as to why his identity is such a secret int he mainstream media. The only explanation I can think of, since this tactic has been used so many times in the past (Seattle shootings, etc.), is that he's a Muslim and the FBI is afraid of anti-Muslim backlash.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Friday called Israel's leaders a ``group of terrorists'' and threatened any country that supports the Jewish state.

``You imposed a group of terrorists ... on the region,'' Ahmadinejad said, addressing the US and its allies. ``It is in your own interest to distance yourself from these criminals... This is an ultimatum. Don't complain tomorrow.''

``Nations will take revenge,'' he told a crowd of thousands gathered at a pro-Palestinian rally in the capital Tehran.

Ahmadinejad said Israel no longer had any reason to exist and would soon disappear.

``This regime, thanks to God, has lost the reason for its existence,'' he said.

The answer is easy: When you're in the closet, and afraid of letting people in on your secret, the only people who can have sex with are those over whom you have power.

If every gay person would just come out, we would pretty much end these ridiculous scandals.

If you had the power and authority (such President or Prime Minister) what would you do to end or limit terrorism. It's easy to criticize Bush and America for "lies" and "war-mongering", but if you're so smart what would you do?

This is what she wrote "
If your children don't go to school they'll end up thick, not get a job, have no future and be dole queue scum. If you say you're teaching your kids at home, well, I don't hold out much hope either for their English skills if they are going to learn them from you.

Oh, and denying your kids an education will put you in prison."

...if she complements this with a low-cut top and miniskirt?

Would people raise quite so many objections?

How about if they wear diaphanous harem outfits? Would we excuse them covering their faces then?

(OK, maybe this wouldn't be suitable classroom wear....I'm taking in general terms here!)

Well it doesn't take a genius to work it out really does it? Blair has been up Bush's **** for so long now,and he did nothing to stop the Israel/Lebanon fighting.We're also an easier target than the US.So why does Blair still refuse to believe that he's the biggest single contributing factor to the current security state in the UK.How can he be so damn arrogant,when everybody now is telling him he's wrong?How can one man so wholeheartedly believe he's right and all the security experts/advisors are wrong.
Now today,Iran said Israel,the US,and,more worrying for me,the UK are enemies of this crazy country.Who they gonna nuke first.A pound to a penny it's the UK,because of Blair and his US led foreign policy.Anyone agree?
