I'll add to that Hang and say we came together as a nation, one people, on December 7th, 1941.

My brother sent it and it goes directly to Times Online .co.uk article on Palin with an interesting photo. I just checked it and went right to article. It is a U.K. site

I'm getting the exact same error Texasmom is getting. I'm using Firefox and it is asking for a username/password.

Oh, I'm not passing judgment on her.  I think almost everyone would try to get him fired.  If he did what they SAY he did, I'm not sure why he wasn't fired, if they had proof of it.

The trooper was suspended for 5 days.  :rolleyes:

On March 1, 2006, Grimes sustained the allegations, saying, "The record clearly indicates a serious and concentrated pattern of unacceptable and at times, illegal activity occurring over a lengthy period, which establishes a course of conduct totally at odds with the ethics of our profession." Wooten was suspended for five days.

There's been other moments, too. But, with that observation crops up an oddity.. a quirk we have I guess. Any number of crimes can be committed against the citizens of this nation abroad.. children can be kidnapped, raped, abused, sold into slavery... our citizens abroad snatched off the streets, decapitated on video. Our soldiers, fallen in combat, dragged thru the streets... even our warships, like the USS Liberty attacked with many lives lost.. we'll absorb that. It seems that any number of atrocities may be committed against our people, the symbols of our nation when abroad..

But if someone... any foreign entity; should have the temerity to attack our Nations citizens on this sovereign soil, there's gonna be hell to pay.
 
Use caution with this link... language. Funny.. but considering the source, telling.

<<During the next 24 hours, Castro had 20,000 troops advancing on the beach and the Cuban Air Force continued to control the skies. As the situation grew increasingly grim, President Kennedy authorized an “air-umbrella” at dawn on April 19, which called for six unmarked American fighter planes to help defend the Brigade's B-26 aircraft flying from Nicaragua.  But the B-26s arrived an hour late (most likely due to time zone confusion) and were shot down by the Cubans. The invasion was crushed later that day. Some exiles escaped to the sea, while the rest were killed or rounded up and imprisoned by Castro’s forces. Almost 1200 Brigade members had surrendered and more than 100 had been killed.>>


You read that or just jump for joy when you saw the first line?

Like I said - back off from the coffee


And maybe go back and read the first post....carefully and slowly...and understand the context... then post... without the coffee...or coke or whatever

(Image removed from quote.)

There's people who think that the CIA actually hit the WTC buildings with a cruise missile fired from a F-117.

Hell, there's people on this board who to this day, profess that the building didn't come down from the airliners, but from controlled demolition.

My example would have been Dec. 7th, 1941; But there are people convinced that FDR let the attack happen so that he had an excuse to go to war with Japan...There's always someone dissenting, somewhere.

Kinda funny how that works isn't it?

That link was pretty funny too, a lot to truth to it, but still funny.

Oh wait, people think THAT was staged, too.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

You beat me to it. There's a great scene in the movie "Best Days of Our Lives" where a guy starts telling a disabled sailor what a shame it was he had to sacrifice his hands to Roosevelt for no good reason.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Don't worry I'm sure McCain can whip her into shape in no time...  :lol



Btw it's being reported she fired the chief of police while she was mayor of Wasilla (Population 9000), because he didn't support her running for governor. If true she's got quite the history with abuse of power, she should fit in well with the current crop of Republicans. I think I'm now quite sure that her year & a half as Governor along with her mayor ship of Wasilla has adequately prepared her for the oval office if McCain happens to have a heart attack.



 :rofl I wonder if the city hall doubles as the town laundromat during the off hours.
