1. LIKE THEY SAY-THE TRUTH ALWAYS COMES OUT
Edited on Fri Nov-03-06 07:29 AM by luckyleftyme2
First the nuke deal: Doesn't this pretty much show how incompetent our government has become.
Not just the "bush" administration but most of the individual departments.
It boils down to pay backs for elections ruin the departments. Look at the appointment of brown to femma.
How many of our clergy in various faiths have cheated on their spouses? How many are bi-sexaul,what and who can you believe today?
My guide line is : damn few!

2. Obviously, they don't understand about "the google" and all the tubes on the internets
They have no idea what they're doing.

7. What it does is blame Government...
Not the Republicans who are running the show...

That is a problem with the way the Media Frames this issue...

Government runs far better than private business, more than 30% of businesses here today will not be here in five years...

It's how government is run and by whom and for whom that is the problem right now...

4. It's because it looks like the dems are going to take over
and they want to get their lobbying in asap. Always make nice to the powers in power, especially when you want a bill passed.

5. It is still nice to see it.
As the mother of an almost service aged child, I am very happy to see it.

6. Anybody mentioning the Arabic linguists fired because they were gay?
Gay Linguists Get The Boot

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14, 2002

(AP) Nine Army linguists, including six trained to speak Arabic, have been dismissed from the military because they are gay.

The soldiers' dismissals come at a time when the military is facing a critical shortage of translators and interpreters for the war on terrorism.

Seven of the soldiers were discharged after telling superiors they are gay, and the two others got in trouble when they were caught together after curfew, said Steve Ralls, spokesman for the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, a group that defends homosexuals in the military.

Six were specializing in Arabic, two were studying Korean and one was studying Mandarin Chinese. All were at the Defense Language Institute in Monterey, the military's primary language training center.
