Kickin' a.s and Takin' Names - 12 Apr 2008 01:56 GMT As if this wasn't bad enough --
The House had a meltdown today in the middle of the memorial service for the late Rep. Tom Lantos, a Holocaust survivor who was chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The service, in the Capitol's historic Statuary Hall, was disrupted when a Republican House member [Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart] unexpectedly called for a procedural vote.
-- the a.shole Republicans decided to greet Lantos's successor, Jackie Speier with another display of childish petulance during her inaugural speech on the House floor.
For a few feel-good moments on the floor of the U.S. House today, Jackie Speier basked in bipartisan applause as she was sworn in as its newest member. Her family, supporters and kids cheered as she embraced her new colleagues.
Then, in her first speech in Congress, Speier spoke out about Iraq, and the boos and hoots began from the Republican side of the aisle.
"When will we get out of Iraq?" was the most frequent question she heard, she told the House, while campaigning in the special election she won Tuesday to succeed the late Rep. Tom Lantos.
"The process to bring the troops home must begin immediately," she said, as several Republicans loudly booed. Rep. Darrell Issa, a Vista Republican, bolted from his seat and left the floor.
The hoots grew in volume as Speier, a Hillsborough Democrat, continued....
"Why are they booing my mother?" Speier's middle-school daughter Stephanie asked, according to a staffer.
Nice.

ds549@webtv.net - 12 Apr 2008 17:33 GMT The Garden of Eden was in Iraq 2. Mesopotamia, which is now Iraq, was the cradle of civilization! 3. Noah built the ark in Iraq 4. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq 5. Abraham was from Ur, which is in Southern Iraq ! 6. Isaac's wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq ! 7. Jacob met Rachel in Iraq < BR>8. Jonah preached in Nineveh - which is in Iraq 9. Assyria, which is in Iraq, conquered the ten tribes of Israel 10. Amos cried out in Iraq ! 11 Babylon, which is in Iraq, destroyed Jerusalem 12. Daniel was in the lion's den in Iraq ! 13. The three Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been in Iraq also as the fourth person in the Fiery Furnace!) 14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the 'writing on the wall' in Iraq 15. Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, carried the Jews captive into Iraq 16. Ezekiel preached in Iraq ... 17. The wise men were from Iraq . 18. Peter preached in Iraq .. 19. The 'Empire of Man' described in Revelation is called Babylon , which was a city in Iraq! And you have probably seen this one: Israel is the nation most often mentioned in the Bible. But do you know which nation is second? It is Iraq ! However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible. The names used in the Bible are Babylon , Land of Shinar , and Mesopotamia ... The word Mesopotamia means 'between the two riv ers,' more exactly between the Tigris And Euphrates Rivers . The name Iraq , means 'country with deep roots.' Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible. No other nation, except Israel , has more history and prophecy associated with it than Iraq And also, This is something to think about: Since America is typically represented by an eagle, Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages ... The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible) Koran ( 9:11 ) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle.. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; And there was peace. (Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?!

You know what? I looked a copy of the Quran and I couldn't find anything even faintly resembling what you quoted. Do I have an "abriged" version? Perhaps this is another one of those urban legends that we hear so much about these days?

Clay - 23 Jul 2008 15:55 GMT I wish that you had used a different adjective than the word which rimes with truck only started with an F. I am by no way a prude and have used the word on occasion but this is a public forum and there could be many readers who should not have to be exposed to that sort of vulgarity. So you do not care for Republicans. We all get the point. There may be some who do not care for Democrats, Communist, Libertarians or any other political party. Please show a little respect.
