Stop looking for someone to blame for everything, Hank.

Funny. Ironic. Silly, almost.

Be fair, B. of the 3 of us, Ty's the only one who's read Clarke's book.

Doubtless a religious fundamentalist like him couldn't think for himself, right?

Being a fundamentalist means never having to say anything original.

Hey! You don't know Bilmore nearly well enough to be talking shit like that!

1. My wife is several categories above me in looks.

2. She also made more money than me.

3. Plus, she came into the relationship with more assets than I.

I will leave you to draw your own conclusions.

Plus, it's unseemly to turn on your own that way.

That is ridiculous to suggest that I should keep quiet when women behave badly simply because I am a woman and therefore I owe them some allegiance.

Just the opposite is true. If women want to fight discrimination, we have to be willing to criticize other women when they behave badly. And, of course, behave well ourselves.

Same is true of men. When men don't criticize piggish behavior by other men, it only encourages more men to behave that way. When you admire the lecherous partner who can fuck the secretaries because he is spending money on them while cheating on his wife, well, you only make it all the more likely that stuff will continue.

For Which of those facts is the opposite true?

No, because I am sure that the Vietnamese will offer to lend Hamas their leader:

Perhaps I have had too much to drink tonight, but I cannot stop myself from thinking about how many under 21 year olds have died in Iraq. Yet we judge them too young to drink. That is waaaay fucked up.

If you really think that 70% of Iraqis are "thrilled by our actions," you are spending too much time reading RNC press releases.

I'm not, I'm reading the polls that have been taken there.

The point it not to have a fighting force. The point is to have an international imprimatur on the future of Iraq. It's harder to persuade the Iraqis that what we're doing there is selfless when we won't let the UN help make the decisions.

Because the UN was so selfless in the oil for food program? And estimated $10 billion was siffoned off from money which otherwise would have gone to feed the Iraqi people by UN beauracrats. I don't understand constant need to elevate the UN to sainthood status. They are politicians like every other politicians. Some good, some bad, but most self interested.
