Odd how little you read about Israeli sex workers. Mostly Eastern European women held as virtual slaves.
If such a situation existed in Iran, we'd read about it, but because it goes against the MSM meme du jour, not a word. Google "Israeli sex slaves" and see what you learn.
Always has been. He's just following his orders. At ease, sheep.
He will change nothing. Hillary would be worse. McCain is a psycho. I refuse to acknowledge "Huckabee" as a genuine candidate.
I like Ron Paul. It's a shame that the MSM is blacking his candidacy out.
From an article supposedly gleaned on campus? Are you joking?
How lovely, a match made in heaven. Was McCain's campaign not just about dead in the water prior to Lieberman's breathing life into it a month or so ago?
When does McCain offer Lieberman the Vice-Presidency?
1. The ex has a key? Dude!
2. You have a nanny?! Dude!
3. Dude, a plastic vagina? Dude, dude, dude...
4. The nanny is flirting? Dude, flirting is the best part!
Let's review:
1. Change the locks NOW, what are you, stupid?
2. Hands off the nanny but flirt all you want.
3. A plastic vagina? Ick. Dude.
1. The extraordinarily unpopular former First Lady
2. The brittle old POW with the bad temper
3. The inexperienced half-black junior Senator
They're interchangeable. "Tough on terror," whatever that's defined as this week, only too happy to support Israel ("Say, friend, why do you have that parasitic organism attached to your throat?") and just plain not trustworthy.
Where's the None Of The Above option?
I don't have any credit card debt or a car payment, but I've LOST more than $1200 given the sliding dollar over the past year. I'd love to say that investing $25K in the Rydex "Weakening Dollar" fund paid off, but I cashed out after losing $2300... nice.
$600? Gas for two months? I'll probably stash it in my kids' 529a accounts (one down 2.55%, the other 4.04%). OTOH maybe I'll just trade it for Euros and stick them under my futon.
Maybe getting the fuck out of Iraq would be a brighter idea.
If Satan and a black man (mulatto, octoroon, quintroon, whatever genetic division you want to field) were in an election, Hispanics would vote overwhelmingly for Satan.
I mean, do you folks ever set foot in the real world? Hispanics DO NOT LIKE black people. Consider this a free clue. Hillary popular amongst Hispanics? Sure, right, if you say so.
You reap what you sow.
Lebanese ambulances struck by air-to-ground missiles THROUGH the red crosses on their roofs?! Hey, how about that containment wall? How's the gulag going in Gaza? Collective punishment may be a war crime elsewhere, but not when good old Israel does it.
The "blind giant" needs to lose its golem, needs to lose the insane promises and pledges weak US politicians have made to Israel, needs to lose the 30% of the US foreign aid budget it receives (in a lump sum, in Euros!)...
Why are we fighting a war of occupation in Iraq on behalf of Israel? Why is our overwhelmed dry drunk appointed President still rubbing sticks together trying to find any reason to whack Iran on behalf of Israel?
Israel ought to be isolated like the pariah state it is. A nation that has a secret nuclear arsenal and routinely ignores UN resolutions? "Regime change" is in order for Israel if it was good enough for Iraq. Olmert can look forward to being hanged in a kangaroo court in a war zone, just like Hussein was.
"Fundamental change" is in order, huh? How about pulling back to the 1946 borders..?
As far as willfully evil deeds. The Democrats were elected in 2006 with high hopes -- oh how soon those were dashed on the rocks. Sorry, boys, it's business as usual. You understand, of course.
I'm thinking that our own version of the Israeli "containment wall" built around Washington DC might work well for us, seal off every suit in DC, cut their power, destroy the runways at the airports -- trap all of those suits like Hess in Spandau so they can no longer affect the rest of the country. Seal them up and let them rot, like excising cancer.
I'm too angry to write more than that at this point.
And use it. See if that "legal limbo" bullshit applies to women who don't consent to being raped or abused.
Her purported temper, her having flatly LOST several primaries, the sense of desperation at what I'm certain she sees as her Mission-From-God campaign -- can you imagine the daily nightmare her staffers are living even as I type this?
The Wicked Witch of the West after meeting the bucket of cold water... melting... angrily... "Oh, what a world, what a world..."
Did you dodge out on the telecom immunity vote the other day? Can we take a peek @ your tax returns yet?
Podhoretz, Zakheim, hey, go for Bush43 and Cheney while the killer RC plane is fueled up. Eliminate the Neocons and the 'war' is over, is it not? A half-dozen Predators above the Bohemian Grove encampment of the rich and powerful could do a lot to set this world right. We're killing the wrong enemies.
"A Salon exclusive" -- try and avoid glorification of the military. They're an occupying army, a corporate asset used to steal natural resources from third-world peoples.
