Martin Bormann (June 17, 1900–May 2, 1945) was a prominent Nazi official. He became head of the Party Chancellery (Parteikanzlei) and private secretary to German Führer Adolf Hitler. He gained Hitler's trust and derived immense power within the Third Reich by controlling access to the Führer.

Hermann Wilhelm Göring (listen (help·info)) (also Goering in English) (January 12, 1893 – October 15, 1946) was a German politician and military leader, a leading member of the Nazi Party, second in command of the Third Reich, and commander of the Luftwaffe.

'Arctic Tale' 'Documentary' Scripted; Tricks Kids Into Worrying About Global Warming
Environmentalists are targeting kids and using deception to get their message out. Anthropogenic global warming evangelists and wildlife filmmakers, Sarah Robertson and Adam Ravetch, made the upcoming live action “Arctic Tale” because as Robertson told the LA Times, "Global warming to a lot of people is statistics...What we wanted to do was put a face on climate change."
OK, so there's the goal, now how to accomplish it? Adults ask all of those pesky questions, but children's minds are easier to mold and manipulate. During the credits, the filmmakers came right out and showed their cards, using kids to shill for AGW and convince their parents to change their evil habits.
The expected tugging of emotions was turned into a shell game by the way the movie was created. “Arctic Tale” is sold to the public as a heartwarming movie that follows a polar bear and a walrus through their first eight years of life. The problem is, they're not real, and the alarming story about their environment was crafted by scriptwriters (emphasis mine throughout):

Wouldn’t it be easier if liberals could just prove fox news is wrong? They can’t prove them wrong so they have to try other ways to silence the truth

Ah to be a liberal, to proclaim my tolerance and open-mindedness with a few tacky bumper stickers and then turn around and try to silence any type of political divergence:
Liberal activists are stepping up their campaign against Fox News Channel by pressuring advertisers not to patronize the network.
MoveOn.org, the Campaign for America's Future and liberal blogs like DailyKos.com are asking thousands of supporters to monitor who is advertising on the network. Once a database is gathered, an organized phone-calling campaign will begin, said Jim Gilliam, vice president of media strategy for Brave New Films, a company that has made anti-Fox videos.

I note that,increasingly, PCers and such-like are using the abuse button to silence people with whom they disagree.
One half-wit wrote "You're a racist.Enough said"
THIS exemplifies the point that I am continually making: The shouting of a single WORD will silence ALL dissent!
No need for reason.
No need for debate.
No need for discussion.
Just shout the WORD!

Another cretin wrote "reported+the date"
I can just imagine them turning to their "mate" and saying "That told him: the Fascist!"
And their mate saying "Oh,I love you when you're STERN! "
Of course, I think Yahoo! are equally at fault for being so Sh1t-scared of this self-appointed Elite.

I asked a question about electing a Muslim president and got the response, "If we elect a Muslim president, we might as well hand over the country to the Muslims." I just want to see if the analogy holds for other religions.

A world stage to either state their long list of greivances and money demands on the US like North Korea or to spew their sick venom like the Ant-Semitism of Iran. What about a toe to toe with al-qaida's leaders would he see that as also fruitful to give legitimacy to a cabal of murders like that? A group that murdered thousands of americans on one day given status of a world leader. And diplomacy is a give and take what do terrorists desire but more deaths. I don't know it this was Hillary's plan but in this give and take with the junior senator from Illinois Hillary is looking like a moderate and he like another "lite" candidate as the Breck Girl John Edwards.

During the last 27 years, the size of the US government has doubled. Federal expenditures totaled $590 billion in 1980. Adjusted for inflation that amount would be $1.444 trillion today, or $3.9 billion per day.
The current federal budget stands at $2.9 trillion, or $7.9 billion per day.
Adjusted for inflation, it is costing more than twice the amount of money to run the federal government today than it did 27 years ago.
In case those numbers escaped you, let me repeat. The government is spending today $7.9 billion per day, every day of the week. Based on the same dollar value, the government spent only $3.9 billion per day in 1980.
What could possible be so different today that requires twice as much money to fund the federal government today as it did 27 years ago?

Ok im leaving for the Army soon and I have had a lot of mentors that have been preparing me in every way possible. I keep hearing how lots of women in the Army are scandolous about sleeping with higher ranking men to move up on rank, that a lot of NCO's will try to make their move on you and tempt you to sleep with them and they can get you promoted faster or something like that........whats up with that? I am a very strong minded woman and I would hate to deal with this sort of problem and have it hold me back from accomplishing what I've set out to do.....I mean I know how to deal with it but will it affect me as far as my professional career in the Army goes?

June 30, 2007 - The Pakistani president, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, was warned this month that Islamic militants and Taliban fighters are rapidly spreading beyond the country's lawless tribal lands and that without "swift and decisive action," the growing militancy could engulf the rest of the country.

As everyone knows, or should know, Pakistan is the only Islamic country with known nuclear capabilities and that it borders Afghanistan, home of the Taliban and the bin Laden branch of al Qaeda. When will the Republican party, and their supporters, admit that abandoning Afghanistan for Iraq was an error of what could be disastrous proportions, and that if our military belongs anywhere in the middle east they belong not in Iraq but in Afghanistan, helping to protect the Pakistani border against Taliban style militants and ideology?
