Study English libel law before trying to make a point with it.

So are you saying that Lieutenant Weinberg (I'm not getting why you included the underline, unless you are saying "This is my new IM id, please please please IM me I love you!!!!!") would be perfectly capable of defending the US? That is not what the "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH" guy was implying with his statements to the lieutenant.

Question for you Bilmore. Where exactly do you go when you disappear from the Board? Others have put forth all sorts of sordid theories, but I am withholding judgment until I hear it from the horse's mouth.

I can't tell the players without a scorecard. Are you the kinder, gentler Bilmore (the one who says "fuck liberal Minnesota"), or the mean and nasty Bilmore (the one who says, um, "fuck liberals in general").

Your assistance is appreciated. Hank provided me his meds schedule so I could keep track.

And thank God for the support we're getting from such countries as Albania (75 troops in Iraq), Macedonia (28), Moldova (12), and Norway (10). Although the Norwegian contingent starts a man down when they play soccer.
