NUKE_CLEVELAND

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ May 11, 2006 -> 01:13 PM) This is nothing new. This guy was on one show last week talking one way, while his president talks another. One is a direct letter to the president, and this is something from a lower level guy. This is smoke and mirrors to keep things moving so they can keep the status quo going on. The President of Iran doesnt think Israel should exist. He questioned its existance in the previous letter, in all of his ramblings. He belongs to a religious sect that believes that when a war between the arabs and jews happen that Mohammed will come to save the world. He is insane. I see Iran getting a nuke, then lobbing it over to Israel and waiting for Mohammed to save them. If they are f***ing stupid enough to drop an atomic weapon on Isreal then Allah better stock up on virgins because there's going to be a whole lot of Iranian Muslims coming around when Isreal and the US turn Iran into a parking lot. QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ May 11, 2006 -> 04:52 PM) I love how in your world, you either hate him or love him. There might be a middle ground - one that acts with actual reason and not emotion. Personally, I hope that middle ground exists and exists in our policies. The letter from Iran to the US is way more important than people think. It's actually the first direct communication between the two states since 1979. That's 27 years. And although, it didn't answer any questions or address any issues - it's still an unprecedented step from Iran to start a process of easing tensions. Whether you want to believe it or not, this is Iran blinking first. Which means that the US government ought to be suspicious of motives but welcome the opening of dialogue. In fact our President should reply. Openly, honestly and publicly. Why? Because if we act the role of honest broker and they really are blowing smoke up our ass - it makes it easier to internationalize any conflict we may feel ourselves cornered into creating. Even if we doubt their intentions, playing out this hand only strengthens our position. We've rejected prior overtures from Iran through third countries to come to the table and start talking - and maybe help ease tensions. This is a tremendous opportunity for the US to regain influence in a part of the world where we need it and I hope it isn't squandered. Otherwise we will be looking up at China in the next 50 years. Rex, those overtures were rejected because they were BS to begin with. Iran is playing the same game North Korea played with us for the last 10 years. They figured if the N. Koreans could get a bomb that way then why not try it themselves. BTW. If we let Iran get a nuke then China will be the least of our worries.

Lawsuit is going to be filed against this group for slander in 5.........4............3............2........1..........

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,195083,00.html This is complete and utter bulls***. Who the f*** does the Mexican Government think they are challenging state laws designed to crack down on illegals?! It f***ing burns me up that our government ( the Bush Administration ) is allowing this to happen. This is further proof ( as if any was needed ) that the Mexican government is totally corrupt and is only interested in exporting poverty to the United States.

QUOTE(jasonxctf @ May 11, 2006 -> 04:28 PM) just think, if Ozzie was a weatherman, we could have skipped the whole Haegar the Horrible incident last night. Garland would have pitched last night on 4 days rest and Vazquez would have pitched Friday on 5 days rest. Buehrle on Saturday on 5 days rest, etc. Or he could have just started BMAC ( He ended up getting almost a full start's worth of work anyway ) and not spotted them 6 runs.

QUOTE(Harry&JimmyRocked @ May 10, 2006 -> 11:00 PM) no way he stays with us. funniest thing is that supposedly everyone LOVES the knuckleball. we got more time on BBTN for this scrub than we do for having the best record in baseball. send him packing now and maybe get someone in the bullpen that can actually get guys out. *COUGH* BMAC *COUGH*

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ May 10, 2006 -> 06:16 PM) Which is why this has a thread and the Republican Congressman who got a DUI last year did not, as far as I know, have a thread of his own. You guys are usually all over it when a Republican f***s up somehow. Someone's gotta put the word out when its a Dem.

QUOTE(Felix @ May 10, 2006 -> 10:14 PM) Its not Ozzie's fault that Jenks had literally nothing today. It is Oz's fault for bringing him in. No way should Cotts have been taken out in that situation.

Oz makes one mistake and they start the Conga line on us. This f***ing sucks!!!

QUOTE(rangercal @ May 10, 2006 -> 02:45 PM) What does Charlie have to do during his stint to stay up, if anything? Nothing he can do now. They're already writing up the optioning paperwork. LOL

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ May 10, 2006 -> 10:05 PM) Looks like we got 'fat' Bobby tonight. No more donuts for you FATASS!!!

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 10, 2006 -> 10:03 PM) 9-5 GOOD CHANGE OZZIE Oz = dumbass. Should already be bottom 9 right now.
