House Democratic leaders charted their course as Gates told lawmakers the buildup in troops is "not the last chance" to succeed in Iraq and "I would be irresponsible if I weren't thinking about what the alternatives might be." Appearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee, he said, "We at this point are planning for success." Does this mean if the surge fails we can expect a bigger, better, new and improved plan?

What do you think of people that snort cocaine for recreation or for life? Are they scum, worthless, useless and every other epithet associated with drug users? Should it be their choice to use or not to (assuming they have no kids and fund their habit on their own) or does Uncle Sam have a right to say"no, no" and punish them with imprisonment?

Sometime in the 1980,s (I think). The IT department of Wiltshire Council was privatised via a management buy out. I am researching some history and am interested in this story. If memory serves me right the whole issue was subject to some controversy at the time. I am trying to find some background info into the story. I seem to remember that there were three senior managers involved at the time.

and we pull out of Iraq, disband the military and disarm all of our stockpiles...how long would it be until we were issued our prayer mats and Cindy Sheehan was fitted for her burka?

I find it amusing that they made this statement in support of his statement that he is "totally heterosexual":

"Ralph said the board spoke with people close to Haggard while investigating his claim that his only extramarital sexual contact happened with Mike Jones. The board found no evidence to the contrary."

Ha ha! Whether he is GAY is hardly the issue: the man hired a prostitute (illegal!) and took crystal meth (illegal!).

Anybody else laughing at this absurdity? By the way - the guy was the only one in the evangelical community to tell the TRUTH about global warming, and really stuck his neck out trying to change their minds. They wanted him to shut the hell up. Gee, then this happened. (Just mentioning that).

The original 9/11 Commission omitted so many issues in their report, admitted they were underfunded and understaffed, so should the investigation be re-opened?

I am looking for pictures of Hillary Clinton in a skirt.

None of the pictures I have seen on Google show Hillary Clinton in a skirt. The few that do show below the waist all show her dressd in pants.

What I am really looking for is the view of Hillary Clinton during the last presidential speech.

I don't really know where to post this question as the question crosses many boundries?

P.S.
What would you rather see Hillary Clinton dressed in?
Pants or Skirt, or does it matter?

seriously, every book I read on Positive attitude makes me think I should become more liberal, because being a conservative and seeing what goes on (of which I can do nothing about), tends to mae me pysed off!! So in a sense, in order to keep a PMA, you kind of have to live and let live- regardless. So that's ok, but in a sense doesn't that kind of silence yourself and let the machine run everything. I mean its like terrorists- should I sit back and wait to be killed or hope to go out and kill them first- because they don't see things the same way?

It's very considerate of the US military to relent and allow the recent cockpit footage to be shown.

Considering half the world's population have seen it when it was classified, they didn't have much choice did they?

I've heard that if you have your car registered in your wife's name, and her car in your name, then if you get a ticket you can say: "That's not me driving that car!" Is that true?
