  1. Really? Well, here's what the Brits say http://english.aljazeera.net/topics/articl...3&parent_id=258
  2. I have read his two books. Nearly wet myself laughing a lot of the time. A professor I know on campus has also even been on the "No Spin Zone" (although everything tilts to the right in the 'Zone) This guy is almost the male version of Ann Coulter.
  3. It's an illegal war, yes. But I was making the statement that he would have to eat a huge PR s*** sandwich if they don't find any weapons and there was this money, all this death and destruction, etc. and Bush has no facts backing him up as to why we needed it. I think public opinion would shift GREATLY if they can't find WoMD there.
  4. That's actually been linked to both possible radiation effects from DU rounds and also the US bombing campaigns of power plants, etc. As of 2000, 9600 US troops have died from "Gulf War Syndrome"...and you know what? The Office of Veterans' Affairs thinks those people are all fine and won't pay them disability! Why are we making more veterans when we can't even take care of the ones we have now?
  5. Assume HYPOTHETICALLY that Saddam does have weapons. How does this prevent other countries who have similar weapons from selling them to terrorists, etc? And wouldn't an invasion of their homeland necessitate their use? If they have them, wouldn't this necessitate their use? And they haven't used them... Actually in '98 the UN asked the inspectors to leave, Saddam didn't kick them out.
  6. I gave him my opinion. I doubt he is that stupid that he can't tell opinion from fact.
  7. I just think that if they don't find weapons, Bush has a big s*** sandwich to take a bite out of. They said that Saddam HAD them without a doubt and if they can't find them, he looks like a real ass for calling an end to the inspections. Also, the families of all those that died will be PISSED AS f*** (I know I would be) if their loved ones died for weapons that they didn't even have.
  8. I completely, wholeheartedly agree with this sentence. Billy Joel and ESPECIALLY Elton John are the natural enemies of They are the Anti- If they were a number, they'd be ( - ) I concur.
  9. You grossly overestimate Uncle Jerry.
  10. It's only a matter of time before they find the chemical agents they're looking for. Sure, they are already in Baghdad....where else can they be?
  11. I gotta like Kansas in this. Their fast break is absolutely brutal. If they can get that going, 'Cuse is f***ed.
  12. All this debate was pretty much that I was forced to sit in front of my computer for hours (3 papers that I had to write, haha) Trust me, I got about 9 books on my shelf waiting to be read and then another 3 pages of books that I want to get from the library to read.
  13. I concur very much, but hopefully our Congresspeople will smart enough to ACTUALLY READ THE f***ING BILL this time.
  14. The WTO is an organization of economists and others that came about because of the GATT treaty. It's an organization that watches business deals etc. and tries to settle grievances that countries have about trade. But they are really almost in the pocket of giant multinational corporations for the most part. If you remember the protests in Seattle in 1999, they were protesting at the WTO summit.
  15. NAFTA has had such a great effect on the American economy! 250,000 American jobs that we didn't need going to Mexico! I love it when the US government gives corporations more ways to bust unions etc. and allows them to keep wages depressed in other regions. NAFTA f***ing sucks ass. It's one of the main reasons I am in support of Kucinich because he has declared his first action will be repealing NAFTA. The US has lost a quarter million good jobs and the Mexican workers' wage has been depressed over 20% since the movement started. Having to do a paper for my class about Che Guevara, I was reading up on when Bolivia privatized their water supply under the Banzer regime because of Bechtel. The price of water tripled per month and no people could afford basic water plumbing as they could before. They began demonstrating until the Banzer regime sent out snipers to protect Bechtel's interests. The snipers began firing on a peaceful crowd which sparked a riot. The riot ended up forcing Bechtel out and now they are going before the WTO saying that they want $200 million from the Bolivian government because they were forced out.
  16. Like Nickelodeon did to Ren and Stimpy, Rocko's Modern Life, and Invader Zim....they did move it around a lot so nobody knew when it was on. wasnt bevis and butt head one of those. Beavis and Butthead got taken off the air after the problems they had when some backwoods f***twit burned down his trailer because Beavis said "Fire". if memory serves me correctly.
  17. It could probably field better than the real Shamme
  18. http://www.heckledepot.com/ This is a great site with tons of baseball heckles. Woo.
  19. I couldn't find any Opeth (then again I wasn't searching that much since I was working on my 10 page paper about Che Guevara's revolution movement in Bolivia and discussing Bolivia's socio-political structure at the time to show why his movement failed) but I did listen to Killswitch Engage. They are pretty goddamn good. They kind of remind me of Against All Authority (without the horns).

    WTO

    Hey guys, I just wanted to see your thoughts about the World Bank, IMF, NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement), the World Trade Organization (WTO) and GATT (General Agreement on Trade & Tariffs). I am going to reserve my opinions for a while so I don't taint stuff at the beginning haha.
  21. Also, take it for what it's worth but Russian intelligence is saying that there are more deaths etc. on the Coalition side than are being discussed in the news.
  22. conquer...nice choice of words. I thought this was a liberation movement? Let's just see how many weapons they find after this. I am going to laugh my ass off if they can't find any weapons and just watch what the media does. How will they spin the egg that will be all over Bush's face? http://guinness.no-ip.com/warmonger.htm This is some pretty funny s***. It's a conversation between a Peacenik and a War Fan.
  23. he needs one of those padded sumo suits..............lol hahahaha.... But in more serious news, it looks like 6-10 wks out. for Griff.
