Turkey has recalled its ambassador from Washington after a US congressional committee voted to recognise the mass killing of Armenians during World War I as genocide. Turkey denies claims it was genocide. They must claim this genocide, in order to join the EU. Can someone tell me y they cant accept it? and y is it such a big deal?

The Labour Governments,

A Politcally Correct Night Before Christmas... Santa can't
smoke his pipe, the elves have unionized, Gordon Brown has Taxed his sleigh and the animal "rights"
folks have prevented the reindeer from flying...

'Twas the night before Christmas and Santa's a wreck...
How to live in a world that's politically correct?
His workers no longer would answer to "Elves",
"Vertically Challenged" they were calling themselves.
And labor conditions at the north pole
Were alleged by the union to stifle the soul.
Four reindeer had vanished, without much propriety,
Released to the wilds by the Humane Society.
And equal employment had made it quite clear
That Santa had better not use just reindeer.
So Dancer and Donner, Comet and Cupid,
Were replaced with 4 pigs, and you know that looked stupid!
The runners had been removed from his sleigh;
The ruts were termed dangerous by the H.S.E.

Apparently, integrity and honesty aren't taken into consideration?

Gore? Come on. He’s a windbag that puts off more pollution in a month than the average person does in 6 months. His overhyped propaganda piece is pure garbage, and personally don’t think that the Nobel prize is anything more than a group that jumps on the flavor of the month bandwagon….
Anyone else see this is a political move instead of a reward for actually accomplishing something good for humanity?

and shares it with the ICC. Both deal with Global Warming. He is a great fire starter on global warming and the ICC speaks for itself, the International Climate Council. I answered a couple of questions yesterday about him and saw all the haters and didn't understand why in America if you do something positive it is always perceived as negative. The man did something very good for his country. And now he has a Nobel Prize to prove it. Why do you dislike Gore so much? What bad has he done as far as his global warming work?

Findings so far seem to describe a criminal event. What laws could they be subject to (if any)? Could they face trial in Iraq?

Please don't hit me with political rhetoric. I'm wondering honestly about this.

Heard an interview on V103 Chicago this morning w/Michael's father and Al Sharpton; please browse internet for more information. Michael is back in jail for violating probation, in front of same judge that tried him as an adult; father lost his job; family has to pay over $600/month for counseling WHILE HE IS IN JAIL. Anyone ever heard of such a thing? And the 10 months in jail he already served (as an adult, mind you) does not count as time served.

What is wrong with the people of Jena????

Please let me hear your thoughts.

Today's (12/10/07) New York Times says:

"Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates, visiting London just days after the prime minister announced that he would remove half of the 5,000 British troops in Iraq by spring, said Thursday that Britain remained “America’s closest ally” and that the force reductions were being made with the full consent of the United States."

Consent, i.e. "permission". How gracious of him!

What would he have done if the British left without his consent - nuke the UK?

I dont see what the big deal is with the jena six. the way i see it is that there were 6 of them and only 2 are facing charges as minors. They should be lucky that they all didn't get locked up. If the situation was the other way around and 6 white kids done that to a black kid they would ba facing a mirder charge. so i think that all the protesters should give it up no matter how much hell they raise it is not going to change the outcome of the courts dicisions. please let me know what you think about this.

Global warming and the protection of the environment should be a paramount concern and certainly Al Gore has contributed to awareness of the problems facing us, our children and, with a bit of luck, our grandchildren, but maybe there should be another category.

His campaign to denigrate and trash them only shows what a low piece of slime he really is.
