I often read posts from people fearing a "cold war psycho" like landing of talibans by boats on the US coast.

Can you describe it to me ? Are they going to arrive on donkeys like Mullah Omar ? Be frightened by their pigfat lubricated Kalashnikov ?
Is is possible to stop them using a wall of leather sofas (100% pig of course) ?

succeed 100% of the time.

I know many will say "well we should not be there to begin with", "Bush is a criminal", "bla, bla,bla"

I am a combat vet. I have been there. I swear to God almighty, If 100% of the country would support the war, I swear to God we would not have had half the amout of deaths in Iraq.

I do not like BUSH. I am not a conservative. I am not 100% liberal either. I know it is hard for a lot of people to believe... ALL OF THE PROTESTING AND DIVISIVENESS ABOUT THE WAR IS CAUSING MORE DEATHS OF OUR SOLDIERS IN IRAQ... Again, please dont reply by saying " we should not be there", well we are now deal with it. If Bush went into this war "illegaly" send him to prison "AFTER THE CONFLICT"...

I know in the answers I will be insulted somehow. I am still astounded of the disrespect shown to vets. I am also astounded that I am not believed. I HAVE BEEN THERE, MY IRAQI COUNTERPARTS HAVE TOLD ME THAT THE TERRORISTS KNOW THE US IS DEVIDED AND THAT MAKES THE TERRORISTS

When ANY gov't offical says "I don't recall" or "I can't remember" over and over. Doesn't it seem like they are just saying that to not answer the question?

And why would any customer want to go with a company that eavesdrops on your calls without permission....


AT&T provided National Security Agency eavesdroppers with full access to its customers' phone calls, and shunted its customers' internet traffic to data-mining equipment installed in a secret room in its San Francisco switching center, according to a former AT&T worker cooperating in the Electronic Frontier Foundation's lawsuit against the company.
Mark Klein, a retired AT&T communications technician, submitted an affidavit in support of the EFF's lawsuit this week. That class action lawsuit, filed in federal court in San Francisco last January, alleges that AT&T violated federal and state laws by surreptitiously allowing the government to monitor phone and internet communications of AT&T customers without warrants.

This is my friend's situation...
She's 16 years old, just got her first speeding ticket. She was doing 32 over in a 70. She's never had a traffic violation or any other run in with the law. This is supposed to be 6 points on her liscense which means they take it away. A friend's dad's lawyer says for $500 he can represent her in court and get the points reduced. But won't the ticket still appear on her parent's insurance? And is it really likely to get this reduced? the cop was pretty mean and claimed she didn't get over fast enough.
She CAN'T tell her parents or they will ship her to boarding school 'cause she's screwed up before. Telling them is really NOT an option. Anyone have any words of advice???

Im very worried about the sake of my country.Pakistan is a great ally of America and has captured many terrorists but many indain people have posted on the net that america will attack us after iran.I thank the american people for their contributions for the earthquake funds which had taken place in our northern areas.May Allah bless you all.Sure there are many extremists in our country but everyone hates them including me and the Pakistani army has shattered their evil power thanks to Allah.The terrorists r not real Muslims.They r just some illeterate evil people who r trying to give pakistan and Islam a bad name. Pakistani govt is a good ally of america.Please answer positively.Believe me, i visited america once and made many friends and i plan to visit later to find those friends.I love the USA and all other allys of our Pakisan.Thankyou.

If we cut and run Iraq will collapse into a terrorist breeding failed state (plus the world will know we've failed).

It should also be obvious to anyone with half a brain that we are not winning now, and can't ever win with the current level of troops.

Why can't everyone (including the generals) just admit the obvious - only the draft and at least 500,000 troops on the ground can win this war.

Don't both Bush & Hillary have incredibly polarizing effects on the US & might it be time for a more moderate, less radical person to become the next US President?
