it is like watching Fox news and NPR slap fight. Some days I rather enjoy it, others, not so much. I have met Sandy, never met Mark.

:applause:

Actually I'm done. With the exoneration of the Haditha Marines and the Guardian supporting Bush's geo-political strategy the only thing left is for others to accurately pen history.

As for Chris-St. Louis . . . . . and the fact that Garrett and I grew up in the southern suburbs of St. Louis . . . . mmmmmm

Something in the water?

I am far happier stating I am from PA. I had a great childhood in St. Louis, but after moving away it became so clear what a shithole that city really was and maybe is. There are some great 'burbs though that rival the best in the country.

At least we have a "beach" that's not known for cancer! :)

If this is a poll, x2

Am I the only one who finds it hilarious that CHAPMAN is calling for someone else to be banned?:smilelol: :rofl:

According to the Kevin Willey cheering section and fan club, Dan's been banned from every other site on the internet except this one.

(I'm gonna keep my own radical politics to myself for awhile to avoid the band hammer)

Hey, if getting banned is the price for speaking out against gross incompetence, abject stupidity, war profiteering, and the casual disregard for the rule of law - including referring to the document he has sworn "to preserve, protect and defend" as "just a god-damned piece of paper" - then "bring it on". It's just that when I see so many crimes being perpetrated against our great nation, I have to speak up - as Dennis Kucinnich did Monday with his 35 separate articles of impeachment (not that it's actually gonna ever happen). And when I see someone defending, nay, *championing* all things Bush-league, it gets my blood up - something I shouldn't be doing at my age. Life should be pretty good right now: I've got a new grand-daughter, the wife got a big raise, I'm turning away work, we're virtually debt-free, and both Rovers are running well (knock on wood). But then I look around at the damage that this administration has visited upon this great country - and the shit that will be hitting the fan for years to come - I'm very worried for our nation's future - especially the mountain of debt left for our kids and grand-kids to deal with. I don't want today to be considered the "good ol' days of $4 gasoline" by future generations. I marched on Washington in 1970 with a half million other folks to end the Vietnam War; certainly getting banned from D-web is less painful that being beaten and gassed for one's political views on an ill-advised war.

Some of y'all might not know who I am, but there's only one person on this list who has owned a Land-Rover for a longer time (and that's by just a few months); I was one of the founders of the oldest Land Rover club in the Americas, published a quarterly newsletter for a dozen years, and organized some of the largest Rover rallies on the continent. I've written regular, feature articles for several "alternative weeklies" and newspapers, was one of the earliest participants in the grand-daddy of all LRO lists, and with four or so years on the D-web, there's a fair amount of text out there with my by-line on it. All of it is factual and/or historical (and I hope informative, even if you didn't have a dog in that particular fight); I challenge anyone to find something that's not truthful and accurate.

I don't know what most of you might do for a living, but in my line of work, I have to testify in court. A lot. Litigation valuation is my specialty. With hotly-contested cases involving many millions of dollars, I've seen some whoppers told under oath by others. Truth is an absolute defense, so logic, reason, and compelling evidence usually wins. Not always, it seems, which explains how Bush won not once, but twice.

I see a lot of similarities between today's D-web and Bush's reception at the EU summit and his farewell tour across the continent last week. Police all across Europe were gearing up for the expected, massive protests - which simply didn't happen. "Bush fatigue" - there and here- appears to be very much in evidence: people can't even be bothered even to boo any more, as apathy is that great. Fortunately for us, the end of this disastrous administration is in sight. Unfortunately, a recent poll by the London's Daily Telegraph found that more people in France, Germany and Britain view the United States as a 'force for evil' than good in the world. Thanks a lot, Georgie....

And if I get banned, so be it...and thanks for all the fish. ;)

Cheers

I know a few baby boomers that marched in protest of the Nam War. They have a %100 Douchebag rating in my book. Most of them, to this day cannot put down their bongs for a entire day.

Not saying you are a douchebag, yu might be the 1 who isn't.:rofl:

I will say, Beyond a doubt, 50 or so years of Baby Boomers running the world have collectively done FAR more damge to our country then G.W. ever can.

Your Dad didnt bitch about fighting in WW2. He did it, came home and picked up where he left off. What ddi the boomers do?

Tell me why I care what France thinks of us again.....
:rofl:

C'est la vie ! :rofl:

X3! Like I live my life, I don't give a damn what anyone thinks of me. It doesn't matter at all. My country nor me are on this planet to make others like us. Do what's right, enjoy yourself, be happy, and to hell with what people think!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Once you have the confidence to just be yourself in life the rest is cake. Individuate!

Cheers,

Mike

Nah, We still have some. If your looking for one, just look for a Harley. :rofl:


Most of the ones I knew were professers in college or News reporters. I wonder if their views would change if they really had a job.

"Save for retirement? No way, thats what Social Security is for.":rofl:
