EDIT: I cannot believe this, but I find myself in basic agreement with Osama bin Laden.

Bin Laden Urges Iraq Insurgents to Unite

BAGHDAD - Osama bin Laden scolded his al-Qaida followers in Iraq and other insurgents Monday, saying they have "been lax" for failing to overcome fanatical tribal loyalties and unite in the... Read More
Interesting, the Generals report didn't say we couldn't win the war or have a good outcome, they said if we keep doing what we are doing we will not win.
And OBL said what he said to try and win people who are against him to his side. So in other words he is trying to lure law abiding Iraqi's that are just trying to live their lives according to the true word of their religion to his side of radical Islam and terrorism. He will lure these people in and then get them to kill civilians, maybe people that used to be their friends.
I have been very vocal lately on the political articles. I am waiting to get the boot. I am also thinking about not renewing when my time is up. I still love the place but I just think I am growing out of it a little bit. Plus with them pulling Nana's set and status and all the other girls getting the boot for speaking up, I just am not sure I want to support this anymore. It started out as a way to express yourself and now it has turned into just for profit it seems.
Barack Obama makes much of his varied heritage. His father was from Kenya, his mother from Kansas. But there is one element of his family history that has remained obscure: his eighth cousin is Dick Cheney.... Read More
The latest Newsweek poll of likely caucus-goers says:
Obama: 28%
Clinton: 24%
Edwards: 22%
And his lead climbs to 8 points when first and second choices are combined.
It's important to remember that deciding the Democratic nominee for president is a sequential process that begins in Iowa. Generating momentum early will be the key to winning the nomination.
I suppose loosing a cell phone is probably better than the demise of my last two RAZR's. One ended up IN a glass of beer, the other found itself in my pocket while I was running full tilt into the Atlantic.
my baby's 6th birlthday is Oct 29 I need to do an early day, (emphasis on early) in order not to scare the shit out of her, as Faith is embracing the macabre at such a tender age.... i wanna do Knotts not scary farm for her cause of her level of genius. (she wants to be a blood sucking faeire) lol......if I set a date,. am I fucking shit up?!?
my lil grrrrrrl is so femme fatale at her age she needs to be distracted by a variety of things so I do not face a death in the very early stages of th e estrogen ocean.. I was cutting heads off of GI Joes at her age sacrificing them to SHE-Ra.............. I have not a clue
oh, hello!
hahahahaha! yeah, we can try that someday. but my spanish is awful, so be prepare because while you guys will be talking spanglish, i'll be the only one talking portuspanglish! for sure i'll mix some words in portuguese to make things worse...
err...really? well, i hope so. but what milktoast means?
and yeah, i have to agree with you. women have so much love to share...but usually we share it with the wrong men. which doesn't mean we don't have fun doing that. while we don't find the right one, we have lot of fun with the wrong ones.
I think Aretha's version of this song is profound, her lead vocal & the layering of her background vocals always gives me a chill, Kind of like in "Spanish Harlem" but this one is even better. Her piano playing & the rhythm section are communicating on some verydeep levels.
Sorry that your prayers were not answered, but that's no reason to stop "Wishin' & Hope'n", to make an obscure Dionne Warwick reference
Humility and modesty have their time and place. There is a time for beginnings
and a time for endings
Meanwhile, I am thinking a lot abt Barack Obama.
Most national polls do not take the time to poll people who actually vote in the primaries, and statistically, primary voters are the people who tend to elect the party candidates and the president (voter fraud notwithstanding,... Read More
i like that you participate in the process. such a small group really pay attention to the candidates. i am an independent/libertarian so both "main" parties make me crazy. love your fire!
I listened to Nader one night on the radio
on WPRB out of Princeton when he ran,
and I thought how could you not want him
while other runners had only "God, Guns, and Gays"
to stand upon Nader brought 20 or so issues to the party
but looking back I feel he just didn't want to lead maybe he
saw the hill wasn't worth the climb.
Obama has a lot of weight on his back lets hope he goes
the distance to the end, who would be a good vice for him ?
you look back and the 2nd guy was never in the news unless
he screwed up like a spelling bee in Trenton
I've never seen a vice( Cheney) with so much power
makes you ask - who is really calling the shots at the White House
