ToMh - 20 Feb 2007 19:41 GMT Finally a politician who understands what needs to been done in order to succeed in Iraq. Time to take control of this war away from Bush and impliment a sensible plan.

I know you forgot to put the OT in the Subject line so I'll so it for you. Hopefully others who reply to you will follow suit.

To be fair, people actually come to this group to read about Toyotas (who knew?), and filter out the OT. As someone suggested some time ago using {OT} or OT: is easier to filter and is a good idea.

However, there may be health issues which cause problems for some people. The human brain naturally makes a chemical which causes us to NOT remember absolutely everything we see all day. Without this chemical, we'd be unable to focus. There would simply be too much stimulation from all the sights and sounds. It's suspected that ADHD is related to an imbalance with this chemical. (Trivia: Marijuana interacts directly with the chemical, which explain a few things).
Maybe OT filters are for people with an imbalance of this chemical.

OT: is not good because MSOE has a bug that strips anything before : and replaces it with Re: of its own. I have mentioned this before in here and some people took note and changed their way.
Don't pay attention to Joe, no one else does either.

PRINCETON PHYSICIST - 26 Feb 2007 20:32 GMT No amount of American blood and treasure will make two peoples love each other and live in peace. The quickest way to peace in Iraq is for us to leave. The ethnic cleansing will quickly escalate and in short order we will have a shiastan in the south and a sunnystan in the center to go with the present kurdistan in the north (the only peaceful stan in Iraq)..
The only one opposed to this will of course be our commander in chief of the military industrial complex, Mr Cheney, who's 'blind' stock portfolio will stop growing. It has already tripled in value since he got into office.
Remember it was a republican war general who warned us of the MIC, and what do we geniuses do? We make its leader our VP at the same time we make a dufas our president.
God bless America.

Art - 20 Feb 2007 20:30 GMT I heard a Iraqi diplomat on NPR a few weeks ago. The fatal floor in Biden's plan, according to the diplomat, is that the populations are not stratified. In other words there is no way to divide the country into ethnic areas without large shifts in populations by sect. He also said that the belief that these sects have been fighting for hundreds of years is simply not true. He claimed that they were living together peacefully before Saddam's takeover but now they have lost decades of experience in governing themselves in a peaceful way.
I don't know whether what he said was true.
Here is my plan for Iraq. Move most of our troops to Afghanistan and attack al qaeda even if it means going into the lawless arrays of Pakistan under protest. Hopefully foreign insurgents and al qaeda in Iraq will follow us to the new war zone and leave Iraq to solve its own problems.

They have been fighting on and off for hundreds of years. The reality is that there appears to be no solution to getting them to form a sectarian government. This is what they finally did in Bosnia and they've had 10 years of peace. I think this is the only thing that may work. What alternative is there? Bush's plan is all but guaranteed to fail.

The area has been infested by us, the British and the Russians for too damned long. Time for everyone to leave. That's what they want. I'm sure they'd be happy to accept our oil purchases, though, no matter who runs the mess.

If Iraq goes into a civil war between the Sunnis and the Shiites, Al Quada will be even stronger as they support the Sunnis backed by Saudi money. In the end it will be either an Iranian controlled Iraq or an Al-Quada controlled iraq. I think Bidens plan holds the best chance for this not happening.

Calling him the "FIRST articulate black......" was certainly the problem in referring to him as articulate. There were certainly other problems.

Well, that *was* an incredibly stupid thing for him to say!
OTOH, one can't throw the baby out w/the bath water; one stupid comment does not an all-around idiot make.

For the record, I have no interest in voting for Obama, or anyone else who's in the race right now.
Jackson and Sharpton are probably the most obnoxiously loud blacks known to America, but I don't know of anyone who truly considers them our leaders. Too bad they're perceived as such.
I still say that comment shows much more about Biden than his supporters would like to see.
But that's just me...
...and many others.

Art - 21 Feb 2007 01:11 GMT Joe Biden admitted what he said was pretty dumb on the Daily Show. And it was. It was also probably incorrect. He called the guy "clean". Smokers usually stink like smoke. Certainly not a clean smell in my opinion.

I think he meant "clean" as in no criminal record, but no matter what he meant, it implies that prior black candidates were in some way dirty, and inarticulate.

Well, while I know politicians are (mostly) human, if you're going to speak publicly (I mean, come on, they prepare most of what they say), you'd better make sure your inference is clear.
I don't think that's too much to ask of those who would govern, let's face it, the world.
Having said that, I had issues with that mutton chop long before this.

If you live in Canada, you don't have the RIGHT of free speech, and criticism. It is a privilege your government grants you and can take away from you. Quite different than in the U.S. plan of government.

Labeling President George W. Bush as stupid or illiterate is something that is very popular with extremist liberals because for the most part they are Northeast elitists or have transplanted themselves their. They can't stand his Southern accent and regional dialect where he uses speech patterns that are not familiar to them. It is obvious to me that the stereotyping of the Southerner is prevalent in these snobbish types that look down upon the "good ol' boy" and have a distaste for anything Redneckian. What really gets under their skin is that they can't understand how someone seemingly so loutish to them keeps besting their chosen ones.
Having lived all over the United States I have garnered an appreciation for the multi-culturlism of our country differently than the politically correct demand of us. The Southern hospitality and true appreciation for life one sees in the Bible Belt is something I have learned to cherish and even emulate since coming back to the North. Even though I live in SE VA it is not the South culturally anymore. There is too much transition of peoples here due to the military bases. However heading out to SW VA you will start to see more of the laid back attitudes that make time for personal relationships with their neighbors. That is one of the things I miss the most since coming back up to Virginia where the hustle and bustle of the city life is no different than when I lived farther North.
All that being said, my point is elitist liberals consider themselves to be the educated ones who have been endowed with the responsibility of taking care of the rest of the little people who aren't capable of making their own decisions. When they see someone who exudes Southernisms constantly making them look foolish all they can do is attack them personally rather than in the arena of ideas.

> They can't stand his Southern accent and regional dialect where he uses > speech patterns that are not familiar to them. Don't insult Southerners. GW Bush's accent is a fake (notice that his brothers have different accents) and sure isn't like any Texan's I've heard. It's just part of his pretend macho man "swagger" and sounds like a New England Yankee going a Texas accent badly.
> It is obvious to me that the stereotyping of the Southerner is > prevalent in these snobbish types that look down upon > the "good ol' boy" and have a distaste for anything Redneckian Those snobs are more likely to be Republican Douglas Feith Ivy League types than Democrats
> What really gets under their skin is that they > can't understand how someone seemingly so loutish to them keeps besting > their chosen ones. The same could be said of the equally incompetent and egomaniacal Hugo Chavez, but neither is qualified to lead their respective countries.
> The Southern hospitality and true > appreciation for life one sees in the Bible Belt is something I have > learned to cherish and even emulate since coming back to the North. The hospitality is real, but the downside of it is more backstabbing than from New Yorkers.

This post is such a pos in its basic premise: Nobody is on GWB for being from Texas and no more than people were on LBJ's case for being from Texas, Jimmy Carter from Georgia, Bill Clinton from Arkansas, Harry Truman from Missouri, or Dwight Eisenhower from Texas (as much as the Bushes were from Texas). People are disillusioned and upset with the job and judgment he has brought to the office of the President.

I hope you don't mean to imply that everybody agrees with you. In fact there are millions who don't. I cannot say that I was happy with the job Clinton was doing either, but I didn't include everybody as you are suggesting with Bush. Clintons approval rating was very low at the end of his tenure. --

Your grasping at any and all straws to store up your support for a failed presidency is futile unless he does something to improve his own situation.

Why should we hold his kids to the same standard that the British royal family does for theirs? Like GW Bush, Prince Harry could have served in the military stateside, but unlike GW Bush, Prince Harry preferred to go.
badgolferman - 26 Feb 2007 03:48 GMT > JoeSpareBedroom wrote to tak: > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > served in the military stateside, but unlike GW Bush, Prince Harry > preferred to go. Prince Harry is certainly to be admired for his courage and determination in fighting the terrorist scourge that has dominated our world for the past five years. This certainly shows the British royal family believe in the purpose of this war enough to allow one of their own to make a name for himself.
However Prince Harry's gallantry will be short-lived. His presence will prove to be a distraction to the troops and ultimately a very tempting target for the enemy. This will lead to specific attacks against his unit in the hopes of capturing or killing him. Even the bodyguards that have been assigned to him will begin to become resentful of this added pressure he has put upon them.
If Prince Harry is ultimately harmed by the terrorists I predict one of two outcomes. Either the British people will seize upon that moment as a call to arms and demand retribution or they will bow before their new masters and give in to the evil forces of fundamentalist Islam. That is a wild card I haven't put my hands on yet.

I'd hate to see anything happen to the prince, but in order to help with his training for certification as an adult and a president, Bush needs to lose a child. This is why they should be assigned something gruesomely dangerous when they arrive in Iraq.

Everyone who has to bury a child is changed instantly. It's like a bucket of cold water dumped on your head, times a million. Bush needs to get wet, like the parents of all the other kids he's murdered.

You have got to be kidding, I want us to win some semblance of an honorable and practicable victory and get out of this mess. I didn't think the Iraq war was necessary or a prudent move given our unfinished war in Afghanistan. And I didn't think our civilian leadership would mess up the prosecution of the war to the extent that we are in danger of being unsuccessful. My criticism of GWB, Cheney, and Rumsfeld centers on their incompetence in doing what they were charged with doing by their oath of office. Colin Powell knew the the score but GWB wanted to show up his old man, rather than protect our national interests.
Want him to fail, hardly. But at the rate he and his admin. have screwed up, I'd settle for "do no 'further' harm."
