...who is unable to complete his term?

Of course I'm referring to South Dakota's Senator Johnson, a Democrat who the governor will replace with a Republican if he's unable to return to Washington. I'm not talking party preferences here. Just as a general rule, either way, shouldn't the replacement be required to be of the party the people voted for?

will control Iraq? The Iraqi Shia will not only be killing the Iraqi Sunni Insurgents but also the foreign terrorists like Al Qaeda as well. And since the Shia are the majority democratically elected leaders of Iraq and they make up most of the Iraqi National Army/police why not let them fight to perserve their Democracy that US helped to create? And once a winner has been decided the US military so can do a little mop up & then leave knowing that the terrorists have been defeated and the Iraqi Democracy perserved. Mission (finally) Accomplished. Or can Bush not stand the fact that the Iraqi Shia will get all the credit for winning the war in Iraq & defeating the terrorists?

I have looked at and read 99.9% of all of them ranging from Roswell to the current notions of 9/11.

I have noticed a few common trends:
1) They all distort or bend the "quotes" of eyewitnesses
2) They all use grainy pictures
3) Use obscure documents and paperwork
4) Change and distort the half-truths into complete truths

Example: 9/11:

The Hunt the boeing farse:
Is it really all that hard to see the plane parts and compare them to the drawings of boeing and conclude that it was a boeing 747-200 that hit the Pentagon. Seriously, I am not an expert in avaition though I did serve in the USN working on military jets.

I think it is a serious injustice to the USA as a whole that the lies continue to spill forth. None of the sites bring anything new forth just the same lies: Compiled into a false truth. Is it tragic in the least.
My ability to reason and understand physics is why I refute the 9/11 inside job claim. how about you?

This is not going to happen, but lets say that Hillary runs with Bill as her VP, She gets impeached and kicked out of office or something in a month, and well, Bill is the president again. So, perfectly legal, an ex-president that has served 2 terms can not run for presidency, but he can run for VP, and can become president if something happens to the president. So for fun, do you think congress should refine the laws a bit more?

In order to understand my meaning, I must refer you to my latest blog entry.

I have had numerous questions deleted, but I see others which are simply pure bone-headed ignorance and hate get passed off as legitimate questions by the censors.

http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-riMyW3YwaK34MLyIWgoR2i3UmPvQOQ--?cq=1&p=76

The blog is an example of satire, which has the title "why is it that all white people are racist?". Since it is written by a guy with a white avatar, I would assume people know it's a joke.

So, maybe you think my humor isn't funny. But I cited many examples of non-humor which are just plain hateful. What's the deal? Is real hate ok, but making fun of hate somehow immoral?

Before you answer, I would like you to take a look at many of the "questions" that get posted on this forum. How many biased, unread, illiterate, vulgar, blatantly partisan, and racist tirades get passed off as legitimate?

Is anyone else frustrated by this?

It's true you know. And how come all the Democrats are pot smoking, tree hugging hippies? Why are all the Republicans hateful gay-bashing warmongers and gun-toting rednecks? And how come all blacks are poor and uneducated? And how come all the Latinos are here illegally? And why are Asian people so short, brainy, and have such small penises? And why are all men jerks and alcoholics who are obsessed with football? And why are women all a bunch of hormonal scatterbrains who marry for money? And why are people on Yahoo Answers always asking loaded, ignorant questions which reveal deep cynical bias and hatred, which are then answered by even more cynical and biased people who don't bother to read the entire question, never learned how to spell, and cannot understand satire when it is extremely heavy-handed AND painfully obvious?

Oh, and why are all Arabs terrorists and sand monkeys? And do your parents know that you are gay?

In all seriousness, a spell checker isn't hard to find.
