Pretty sure the economy falling off a cliff had more to do with that election than Palin...

The public is just doing what it always does with respect to former presidents... and with respect to current presidents. Nothing more. Give up the quest to vindicate Bush... nobody has to be mean about it now but that doesn't mean things didn't end up about as bad as possible. lol

haha scrambling? if you believe that Bush is in some way recovrring from his presidency outside of basic time passing...then that is what you believe. and I could care less of course but thebskewed overall view you have of the public opinion of bush and obama is simply your view

This really means nothing given that it is expected. If anything it took Bush too long to even get near 50 post presidency. Active presidents are another story all together.

THIS POST IS A SPOILER FOR BOOK READERS ONLY: Looks like they are incorporating a particularly nasty aspect to Robbs dead from the book in the next episode: http://i.imgur.com/D3Co1OW.jpg

That particular issue isn't even about that....there are plenty of services for people who speak other languages...that one is just about some psycho running external enforcement for CRC in DOL.

I think the bottom line is ... they're going to have to show us the bacon on this one. 7 years? Show us some bacon...classified or not they need to declassify it and tell us specifically how this has been successful. They can do that or explain specifically what it is they get.... If it is deidentified markers matched up to numbers, mined to fine some patter, then identified for those that pass the pattern, then analyzed and possibly get a warrant for it...I think (contrary to what a lot of us like to say) most Americans would be ok with this PROVIDED that they could certify those numbers that become identified (after passing a pattern) are very low AND that there are a number of terrorist activities that have been thwarted... But the bottom line is we can't continue indefinitely condoning this without declassified information that allows us to consider it intelligently...

How is that a difficult question when they waived the hearing?

That was pretty gnarly to see.

I could insert some long post here...detail the complexities of the region and our complicated and delicate involvement...the effects this could have on our allies if it goes a certain way...and then appeal to fear about possible weapons and emotion for cultural and religious point...or I could just say "you are right."

Obviously there are probably good people in Syria we could help if we put an end to the open warfare...and I'm sure some rebels aren't monsters and would hope to win and have a solid non-radical Syria...but for the most part (especially in terms of what would likely happen in reality)...I would agree with you. And to top it off...it's some countries civil war...this isn't even an international war (officially)...it is only b/c it some refugees are fleeing and terrorist going on and then alliances and strategy...the alliance/strategy/involvement crap...not worth it in this case. Monitor for insane weapons being sold/supplied and other than that keep out.

In my personal experience, I do find that men tend to negotiate for higher wages and more responsibilities. Not in some drastic way, but that is what I've seen in my professional experience.Not that it means anything what I have seen relative to what is actually going on throughout the economy...

Just seems like some sort of emotional appeal designed to get readers to want to take action about something that, whatever you think about it, we shouldn't take action on...

Is Ralph Peters implying that it is our governments responsibility, or that that the majority of Americans think it is, to preserve Christian and Jewish culture on the opposite side of the world?

Actually quite the silver lining if we stay out of the dispute and let radicals freak on each other.

You pretty much need robots doing everything

do not agree

If you think he's better off in prison than out...you are just wrong.

Just watched that heart eat video. !@#$ing freak show over there right now.

I doubt it.

The injuries are consistent with a fight. Of which clearly George took damage. All I'm saying is if you want to talk fact sand direct conclusions from them...there are few...and some are bad for George..and it isn't as if George has a ton of them that directly support anything positive for him. The location is clearly the best of what he has though. Much better than the injuries imo. Now, don't confuse my little discussion of this as to say that he won't walk. He'll clearly walk. I'm just pointing out that most of everybody's outrage, IMO, is traceable to the media and not the situation. It is not outlandish at all that this went to a jury. However, he'll likely win unless they have some stuff we are not aware of...

So it all comes back to character assassination and a general propensity argument. The wounds are evidence of a struggle....but not the important parts of GZ's story. The location of the struggle is perhaps the only actual evidence that supports anything GZ claims...and even that can be argued either way given the holes in what happened.

it is confusing the issue to point out that George described Trayvin running away on the phone as it happened?
