I'm Libertotalitarian.

I think a shootout is a lousy way to decide who goes to play for an olympic gold medal.

What do we do with Sweden after the invasion?

In the media there are a few powerful forces at work: 1) Ratings/Sales 2) Careerism - (Nobody is remembered for breaking that incredibly happy story.) 3) A filter that streamlines news to fit 1 and 2. Ergo, your nightly news is pre-chewed so there is little ambiguity or complexity to digest, and iconic. Just think, what are the images of the Iraq war that the media has broadcast and rebroadcast- I can think of a few - the statue toppling, the bagged head guy at Abu Garaib, Jessica Lynch, that armless and legless little boy, etc. You can be familiar with all these iconic images and know sh-- about what is happening there.

There is more than a grain of truth in that.

Guilty on 9 counts of Juxtaposition. Who is? That's for the jury.

Lies Everyone in the know knew he was huffing glue.

He wanted Megabucks and Megayears and was Mega-full-of-himself. He didn't take the offer, so it was withdrawn.

8th Amendment and Youth executions. Over time shifting moral standards tended to view those under 18 as children rather than adults, or minority age was a factor that reduced culpabitity and made capital crimes for young teens "unusual"

good answer. I am about to exercise my 21st amendment rights in about 30 minutes. Those were absolute, abolished, then reappeared. It's my favorite amendment. One I can celebrate with my 15th amendment brothers and that 19th amendment crowd too.

He refused a one year deal from Darcy.

Do you mean Bah Bah Bah? 333?

I think you need to come up with an NFL equivilant type coach, to make the comparison, Ditka come to mind, but of course that is inexact. Who would really want Ditka coaching their investment?

The girls are a little on the hairy side, but very polite.

I don't have a problem with Professionals competing, but I think I would rather see it become an Under 23 tournament like the Olympic Soccer. That would make the USOC put more time into player development.

damn. caught me. Hey wait a sec...didn't you just....

Hasek's hammy hurt hence his halt. you asked.

!@#$. There is no good turn of phrase with Latvia.

A clown shot them with a laser? hit them with a plank? These remain mysteries.

Could be. There are tough coaches. Keenan for one always seems to resurface, which gives you the idea that there is more to Nolan's story than anyone hears. I think he at one time was asked if he would take the Ranger's job, but he always gave unrealistic conditions - he had to bring in all of his own people is the story. The other part of it is exactly what kind of system did Nolan bring to Buffalo during the years he was here? I think it was have a great goaltender and punch the other team in the face, slog em out, and scrap. Good times.
