St. Peter explains that the one clock has never moved because it belonged to Mother Theresa and she never told a lie her whole life. The next clock belonged to Abraham Lincoln and since he only told two lies his whole life, only two seconds had clicked. Hillary asks, "Where is Bill's clock?"

St. Peter says, "Bill's clock is upstairs in God's office. He's using it as a fan."

But we do. Come home. Leave that sickening, self-defeating and ineffectual state of mind known as the Democratic Party far behind...

Come Home. Finally - to your place in the sun as a true Republican Man. :)


Hehe, weazel will probably join the Republican or Democratic party when someone takes the Constitution from his dead, cold hands.
Just assuming here  :D

     Ah, you mean if you're in the upper 5% and you get good tax breaks. You mean if you want to make the gap between that 5% and the rest of the people even bigger. Republican's are always about "big business" and making those businesses bigger. I used to work for two Republican brothers. The only reason they voted that way is because their business was going to get bigger tax breaks. By the way, that would break my Democratic heart if they had to pay more in taxes. NOT!

You never know. Weazel is a smart guy.

People have been known to change their views with increasing life experience.

I really think Weazel has some worthy conservative traits... its in there, inside him, wanting to express itself like a hidden gene... but he won't allow it to manifest.


Weazel, if you are out there, I want you to contact a very good friend of mine who would be happy to reach out a hand of conservative welcome to you:

Welcome  :)

Yes he is very smart. Smarter than most of you are giving him credit for. Until either the Democratic or Republican Party goes through a complete overhaul, then maybe, just maybe he'll join. Until then, don't hold your breath.  ;)

Gscholz - I understand what you say, but wouldn't have that escalated the situation into a full blown conflict where any idiot with a rifle would be taking pot shots at UN personnel? If the UN forces suddenly went onto the offensive with a full blown fire-fight at Srebrenica - wouldn't such an outcome been inevitable? What would the civilian casualties have been like? How could the Dutch troops defend a compound that was filled to the brim with refugees? Could the UN troops have lasted a day? How could airstrikes aid the Dutch once they were locked in a fire-fight at close quarters?

I agree on the loss of life to UN personnel aspect affecting UN decision making.

The truth of the matter is that you can't hope to have an armed, neutral posture in a war zone. Peacekeepers should be depolyed to keep the peace once established, not try and enforce it while obeying rules of engagement that doom them to failure.

BTW - did you get my email... are you ok to dual tonight? :)

Sounds like a porked situation all round - there was no political will to commit to do doing the job properly, so the member states involved allowed the situation to persist and glossed over the fact that the UN was technically at war with all the protagonists. Well, thanks for the insight.

BTW, choose your weapon carefully... you should know I am highly regarded among the C-47 aces of AH. :D

Dowding accepting the full impact of your argument leads to what happend at srebrenica, basically the Dutch UN not taking sides and not doing anything because they migh get hurt while knowing for certain what would happend to the refugees they abandoned. And plese dont tell me they didnt have intel by July 1995 that serb armies were commiting genocide since 1991 on the Bosnian and/or Croatian populations. And thats why I hate them particularly so for this incident and in general resent the UN.

A sad miserable episode in UN, Dutch and European history.

I have a question for you, Grunherz. You left Croatia in 1987 or 1988 (IIRC), years before the general war in the Balkans. You're an adult now. Why don't you go back and help rebuild your country, instead of perching yourself atop an ivory tower in a country far away from your homeland, castigating those who tried to help?

Let's not forget Balkan history in that little story of woe. Let's not lose sight of the fact that it was Serbian, Croatian and Bosnian fingers pulling the triggers and lighting the fires.

I'm an American more than a Croatian, most of that country has died in me I really dont think I could live there anymore regardlesss of economics or the beuty of our adriatic sea.

And I know it's our fault, we started it because the country went downhill econmoically when the loans ran out - the country was not econmically viable because of communism. Then we just turned from focusing on that to bashing each other because of supposed past injustices and voila 250,000 dead...

I dont like the UN because the only things they were really effective at and seemingly committed to 100% was an arms blokade which made it incredibly difficult for croats and bosnians to defendthemselves against the serb dominated JNA which was one of the larger ground armies in the world at the time and ivading and shelling our homes- my huse was almost blown up and took several mortar hits. The other was maintaining cease fire lines from i think 1992 to that summer of 1995 which guaranteed the serb armies 1/3 of croatia and 1/2 of bosnia through illegal conquest.
 
I'm just mad at the way the UN acted and the indecisive way they they went about it. Like it or not there was a principal bad guy, and i know you brits have an affinity for serbia like the germans have for croatia but even you have to admit the clear main agressor and warcriminal was serbia. The UN never allowed itsef to recognize this until far too late and only near the end of the war if ever.
