Just make sure you tell the neighborhood kids to leave before they do.

Good idea.

Got it. I will say the appropriate prayers.

Can you imagine if Clinton had convinced Arafat to take the Clinton-Setting-the-Israelis-up-to-be-driven-into-the-sea-Deal back in 2000. The nuke would have been meaningless unless they just want to self-destruct. I wonder if Israel would even exist today.

Odd that Clinton would have been so anxious to sell Israel out given that Hillary is a "self-proclaimed jew".

I have two questions (1 and 2a or 1 and 2b) for the people that supported the war in Afghanistan but not the war in Iraq.

1) If the Taliban were not connected with Al Queda would it have been morally justifiable for the United States to invade and take over Afghanistan?

2a) If no, how badly does a government have to abuse its people before another country has the moral right to invade and take it over?

2b) If yes, what makes Afghanistan under the Taliban so much worse than Iraq under Saddam Hussein?

I don't think his intent was to sell out Israel. I think his intent was what his intent always is - to benefit Clinton. It was a legacy thing.

Is this from syligisms (sp?) for dummies?

MY rhetoric notwithstanding, I agree, in part, with the cavaet being, how could he have been so willingly to put the continued existence of Israel at such risk for the sake of his short-term legacy when if, in fact, the worst case scenario occured, which at a minimum the Palis eventually would have tried, his long-term legacy would end up worse than it already will be (and it will be pretty bad as is), no??????

Schroeder..........refused to concede defeat, saying he could still theoretically remain in power if talks with other parties were successful.

Has he called President Gore for advice?

The Associated Press caption accompanying the image with a black person says he's just finished "looting" a grocery store. The AFP/Getty Images caption describes lighter skinned people "finding" bread and soda from a grocery store. No stores are open to sell these goods.

New Orleans, Sept. 1, 2005 - It's criminal. From what you're hearing, the people trapped in New Orleans are nothing but looters. We're told we should be more "neighborly." But nobody talked about being neighborly until after the people who could afford to leave … left

There are gangs of white vigilantes near here riding around in pickup trucks, all of them armed, and any young Black they see who they figure doesn't belong in their community, they shoot him.

But nobody cares. They're just lawless looters ... dangerous

The hurricane hit at the end of the month, the time when poor people are most vulnerable. Food stamps don't buy enough but for about three weeks of the month, and by the end of the month everyone runs out. Now they have no way to get their food stamps or any money, so they just have to take what they can to survive.

Every day countless volunteers are trying to help, but they're turned back. Almost all the rescue that's been done has been done by volunteers anyway.

here is the real truth, they were watching our in need of help Americans die and suffer because they are afraid of us African Americans and other poor races & it make me mad because these scum just are sitting around while people die and it is sick.

they can't even take care of our affairs here in America, how are they going to help other country's when this place is a hell hole. It made me sick to see Veterans dying and they fault for this country like my dad, & my step brother is now fighting in Iraq & even he called me & said that he feels ashamed & appalled at what he has saw this week from our fake country

I moved this post from the Texas board to here, where it is more appropriate. RT

Germany back in line. North Korea lining up, although I'm sure someone here will post some blog that shows we would have been better off if we had followed the Carter plan. The only rouge nation left is Iran, oh and France.

From FactCheck.org

Katrina: What Happened When
It will take months to get the full story, but meanwhile here are some of the key facts about what happened and when officials acted.

September 16, 2005

Summary

Multiple investigations are likely into the response by federal, state, and local officials to the disastrous flooding of New Orleans from Hurricane Katrina. New facts are still emerging, and we expect it will be months or years before a full picture can be properly assessed.

Well, Biden, technically. But he really just copied a plan of gore's.

If we've learned nothing about Clinton, we learned that he was into immediate gratification.
