:-D Well have you thank them? I know I just did! LOL!

I'm going back to school (actually already back). So please everyone be safe and well. I would not be happy knowing that my friends are not well.

Best wishes to you all, my Y!A friends, police officers and civic minded citizens alike.

Do you agree "War is an obscenity."?!? Civilized societies like Canada, by definition, abhor obscenities. How then can Canada honourably, successfully fight a future foreign war.

So far, in Asia we joined the US in arms to protect South Korea, but refused to defend South Viet Nam.

In fact US Viet Nam era draft dodgers poured into our country like Mexican illegals in the states, and became our best "peace loving" citizens.

Lately, in the Middle East, we fought side-by-side with the Americans in the "war against terrorism", in the terrorist stronghold of Afganistan ... but we said NO to the Iraq "police action".

Example: Iran might be attacked any day now, by our friends south of the border, from bases in Iraq & Afganistan, especially if Iran's terrorist-supporting nuclear bomb develoment prevokes a justified pretext for war (apparently necessary) "shock & awe" US military response? Do we go too? Why or why not? Can we seperate ourselves from U.S. vital intrests?!?

I made a question asking soemthing about the nature of american soldiers and it got deleted......I will not go into more detail about the question because doubtless i will be reported again.

Really everytime someoen makes a question that the americans don't like to hear they get it deleted. You guy's really dont like criticism huh? When a racist question about a relegion/race is posted ntohing happens the Y/A is compeletely apethetic but with a question critical of the behaviour of american soldiers is made then somehow that warrents deletion?

EuroFighter away.......

From AP News:

Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards said on Sunday that his universal health care proposal would require that Americans go to the doctor for preventive care.

"It requires that everybody be covered. It requires that everybody get preventive care," he told a crowd sitting in lawn chairs in front of the Cedar County Courthouse. "If you are going to be in the system, you can't choose not to go to the doctor for 20 years. You have to go in and be checked and make sure that you are OK."

You may recall that Hillary recommended jail time for doctors who provided health care outside of the government health care system. Will Edwards' plan be just as draconian?

The governments which encourage it?
All governments encourage it you do realize.Ours is as much to blame as any other.Especially where Mexico is concerned.So do you hate the players or do you hate the game makers?

Personally the game makers I detest.The people of our countries are just pawns in a major marketing game.

The Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act, the overturning of Posse Comitatus and Habeas Corpus and now this:

US B-52 in Nuclear Cargo Blunder

The missiles were mounted on the wings of a B-52 bomber
The US Air Force has launched an investigation after a B-52 bomber flew across the US last week mistakenly loaded with nuclear-armed missiles.
It follows reports in the Army Times that five missiles were unaccounted for during the three-hour flight from North Dakota to Louisiana.

The air force said "the cruise missiles were safe at all times." (Don't you always trust what the Pentagon says?)

Army Times said the missiles were to be decommissioned but were mistakenly mounted on the bomber's wings.

The W80-1 warhead has a yield of five to 150 kilotons, the paper said.

The flight took place on 30 August, from the Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota to the Barksdale Air Force Base, near Bossier City, in Louisiana.

I had my friend put an item on eBay that sold and the money was posted to his account. He shipped the item and paid me a certain portion of the money up front in cash and still owes me because of ATM daily cash limits. A few days later, apparently, the transaction was fraudulent, and the full amount of the money was taken out of his PayPal account, leaving him in the red. He is now asking for the money he gave me back. Because I lost my item (he had already shipped it) my argument is that I shouldn't give him the money. What would be the right path here?

I was just curious, so could you please tell me if you are a conservative or a liberal and whether you believe people are generally smart, good, bad or stupid, or any combination of the two?

I didn't have much confidence in the leadership abilities after I found out that he felt it was more important to read children's books than to sound the alarms and try to at least make an attempt to look like he knew what he was doing.

Liberals are perennially enraged that Republicans are allowed to talk back. For years, this wasn't a problem, because, in Lenin's immortal words, they had seized the telegraph office. There were only three TV stations, three major newspapers, and a handful of national magazines, all run by liberals. But at least since Rush Limbaugh got a microphone, liberals haven't been able to make arguments in a vacuum.
