Good dodge, but it doesn't let you off the hook with regards to the point

Now breaking on Buzzflash and world news.sm
I cannot believe what I am reading in a Buzzflash editorial:
We don't know everything that they didn't or did do, but already we know enough to know that they were, in all likelihood, unforgivably and perhaps criminally negligent.
Whether or not they were just incompetent and lazy or were willfully allowing it to happen to create the Pearl Harbor event that the PNAC felt was necessary to galvanize Americans into a wartime footing remains to be uncovered.

He doesn't but the rest of the world
can't wait for the countdown to be over. Great men are worthy of great expectations. No doubt he will live up to them and in the meantime, all you detractors will be self-combusting, one-by-one.
News to me. Never saw anyone worship her in the years I have been posting. SM
Show me a link.
If the rest of the world doesn't hate us quite as bad,
And if the rich are finally paying their fair share of taxes, and the middle-class can at least AFFORD to pay theirs, the country can afford to put more money into a state-of-the-art military that fewer countries will think they can take on. Not like it is now, with our poor guys on the ground trying to 'win' this thing with inadequate air cover and duct-taped equipment.
It doesn't narrow our view of the world,
it expands it.
Wow, if this is all true....just boggles the mind, doesn't it...thanks for posting....nm
Good post....truth doesn't always sound good

His news conference yesterday...and there are a few real conservative economists left in the world..
that know his plans won't work, economic, healthcare and all the others.
Obama is doomed to fail miserably, and will probably blame someone else for it all (wait for it....It's Bush's fault...well, and maybe it'll be Congress' fault too, when things fail to work out according to his great plans).
Socialism doesn't work. Ask any true economist, and ask any historian how well Russia, Cuba, Venezuela socialism has worked out.
the astrological event doesn't mean the end of the world; the mayans couldn't even predict the

what was the point in posting link

You obviously live in a make believe world.....point

Heard Cheney on Rush the other day. Good man, probably the most intelligent VP we've ever had.
That was a good story - thanks for posting!

Thanks for posting - good reads to explore.

That's a good, fair article. Very well stated. Thanks for posting the link!....nm
Good point, good post. Thanks.
The good news is
Now that O is changing the constitution to allow a foreign born like himself become the next president I think Arnold might have a good shot at it next election. Or is the O only going to change it to allow only himself be allowed to be president.
A bit of good news....(sm)

TEHRAN, Iran - The lawyer for an Iranian-American student detained in Tehran said his client has been released on bail.
Mohammad Ali Dadkhah said Tuesday that Esha Momeni was released Monday evening on $200,000 bail.
The lawyer said the 28-year-old student at California State University planned to leave for the U.S. as soon as possible.
He said authorities had not imposed a travel ban on Momeni. But, he said, she could still go to trial on unspecified "security charges."
Momeni's father said he put up the deed to the family's Tehran apartment to cover the bail.
Momeni was detained on Oct. 15. Activists believe she was arrested for her involvement in a women's rights campaign.
Well that's good news
Glad you liked my rant. Man was I hot when I wrote it. I'm so sick of politics being an "aristocrat thing". How many good politicians go unnoticed and don't have a chance just because they don't have tons of money or a "name".
Where can I just get some good ol news
I'd like opinions of where you get your news, what stations do you find give an equal balance. Please don't bash other stations because as for as many acronyms as I have heard about one news station, I've heard equal many about the others.
I don't watch Fox or MSNBC - those two are so blatanly biased. I used to watch CNN until the Clinton's got in, then they became the Clinton News Network, never reporting the truth about the goings on of that administration. Today I thought I'd go back to them to see if they calmed it down a bit with the love affair with the Clinton, but sure enough today I heard Wolf Blitzer say "Is the decade of Clinton bashing over". I'm just flabbergasted and astounded at the complete ignorance of that station. Ever since the Clinton's came into action the media has fallen over backwards with their love affair for them. So, this morning I realized that all three stations, Fox, MSNBC, and CNN won't do it for me.
Where do you all get your news and why do you like it.
This would only be good news IF the.....
job market were progressing upward at the same rate; otherwise, these new houses will sit empty along with foreclosed ones. You don't think this information is manipulated to make you "feel" better about something - after listening to O talking about "crisis" for so many weeks in a row? This won't last, I assure you!
My point is not to take a NEWS organizations poll as a true representation
of public opinon. I don't care if O has a good approval rating or not; news polls are skewed towards their base audience. Better to have an impartial poll rather than a left or right leaning poll. Relax and have a drink!

Good news - 2 things
Item #1 is that Michelle Obama has strongly stated she does not want HC picked as VP. (Am sure she is thinking the same thing - she wants to see her husband live through his term).
Item #2 in a poll of 80% of 550 major political figures, 43% say Barack will be the next president, 38% John McCain & 19% HC.
Good news if you want to believe a liberal

About time we got a little good news! nm

Good for Fox News...they refused to run an ad against Obama...
put together by a private citizen (not the McCain campaign), the same guy who was behind the swift boat ads against Kerry. They could have run it and they chose not to. Good for them! I admit, there is cause for concern about Obama's connection to Ayers, but that kind of ad where it is mean accusation and innuendo with no real proof shouldn't be run, in my opinion. Good for them for stepping up.
Good Source for (more) objective news

North Korea: This is not good news
I was surfing a bit this morning and found this news article from N. Korea. I doubt things will cool off for a long time, if ever. The article headlines state: "Lee Myung-Bak's Group Military Provocations Blasted. From there, it calls him a puppet war monger and states how Myung-Bak outbursts "over the non-existant provocation (my emphasis) by the North."

Good discussion on PBS' Lehrer News Hour
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/political_wrap/july-dec05/bop_9-2.html
Very good discussion of the political ramifications of the current governmental failure in this emergency - includes New York Times columnist David Brooks, a Republican with some rather surprisingly accurate statements.
This is good news. It is a reflection of public opinion of the..sm
republican party and how they are running the country. Hope this tide keeps on rolling.
Housing market on upswing - good news!
Part of an interesting article on housing market upswing - inflation slowing down. Good news if it stays the course!

US housing starts rose sharply in February, providing some good news for the struggling housing industry. (Photo: AP)
Washington - New U.S. housing starts and permits unexpectedly rebounded in February, according to data on Tuesday that provided a rare dose of good news for the recession-hit economy and fractured housing market.
The Commerce Department said housing starts jumped 22.2 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 583,000 units from 477,000 units in January. That was the biggest percentage rise since January 1990 and also marked the first increase since last April.
"That is an encouraging sign for the U.S. economy. It is good signal of what is to come. With the rally in equities we hopefully have seen a bottom for the economy here," said Matt Esteve, foreign exchange trader at Tempus Consulting in Washington.
U.S. stocks have been on the rise over the last several days and the major indexes opened flat on Tuesday. U.S. government bond prices trimmed gains after the data and the U.S. dollar fell against the euro as risk aversion eased.
Good. I hadn't heard the news yet that he's finally
going up for trial. I've listened to all the stations but haven't heard it yet. It's about time. There's plenty that crowd needs to be held responsible for. However, this post was not about Bush is was about the messiah. How convenient for you to switch the subject.
What a trash mouth....make you feel real good to be profane with a stranger on a posting board??
and yes, it is murder. When you kill a human being, its murder. You can justify it, rationalize it, whatever it takes so that you feel good about killing it....but it is murder. Very simple...it is living and growing. You introduce a foreign object and slice it into pieces and suck it out of the one place that should be SAFE. Biology 101...the child is alive. It is growing. would not grow if it was not alive. The life was terminated. That's murder.
And of the 1.2 million abortions performed in this country every year, how may do you think are due to rape (by anyone), incest, or to protect the life of the mother? Less than 20%. All the others are oops abortions. So let's start with delegalizing abortion except in the case of rape, incest, and endangering the life of the mother. That would save about 800,000 babies a year. That would be a great place to start. It might also encourage better stewardship of those uteruses you want the government to stay out of. You don't mind the government going in there to kill babies though, do you?
So now you want to round up all the pregnant women who are poor and abort their kids? You hinting that poor kids aren't loved by their parents?
So if being dominated doesn't feel good,
This has nothing to do with any of the other drivel about Nazism, socialism or what. Its time for your medicine.
I'm sure it "sounds" real good...too bad he doesn't really believe it and you....
What you get if O is elected, is a whole lot of not what he's promising.
Such gullible fools half this country is.
That doesn't sound good. I worry myself
as I have life insurance through American General who was supposedly bought out by AIG because everytime I get a letter from the insurance company, it comes in an AIG envelope.
I dealt with this life insurance company since 1975 and I would sure hate to lose the insurance since DH now cannot be insured by another company without a rigorous PE, which he wouldn't do.
Another thumbs up or "I told you so" from hubby if this happens and I sure would hate to acknowledge he was right. I'm beginning to think he can see into the future. So many of his predictions have come true.
She doesn't have to tell me....good grief, it's a free country...
I just asked. You read all these posts and all you got out of it is that we just insulted each other? :) And you don't have to tell me anything. Just an observation.
Who says Obama doesn't have a good sense of humor?

Good point...sm
There is no blaming liberals for Bush's inaction. He hasn't paid us any attention for the past 6 years, so anything that he has done is of his own accord, including the handling of the war in Iraq.
Suzie mentioned not taking out al Sadr above (sound familiar?).
Good point
I remember a disagreement several of us had with our pastor years ago. Several folks were talking about leaving. One of the elders told us, "You don't leave, I don't leave, this is our church, not his. He needs to remember that he works for us, not the other way around." Brought lots of things into perspective for me.
Good point
Yeah, they are both raking in the dough, but why should Hillary or anyone be forced to pay our health care costs? Your right, the post makes no sense.
Good point - :-)
