Why the Terrorists Made Iraq the Epicenter of the "War on Terror"

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 15 Dec 06

The goal in war is not just to "kill people and break things" (as many would have us believe). The goal is to deny the enemy the ability to continue the fight. True, killing people and breaking things is a major part of doing...

pemaldak Everyone has the right to self-defense. When a certain group travels across the seas to destroy buildings and more than 3,000 innocent lives, for no apparent reason other than hatred because they are of a different persuasion, that country has the right to...

pemaldak It's amazing how people can consider Bush as the dumbest person in the world while at the same time think Bush is intelligent enough that he is able to make Blair act as his "lapdog". Which is it?

NY City Trans Fat Ban

Itallie @Itallie (65) • Italy 12 Jan 07

How do you feel about the fact that NY City has banned trans fat in restaurants? I think this law is a violation of the constitution. Why can't people just be responsible for themselves instead of the government deciding what is...

pemaldak Personal accountability, my friend--Personal Accountability. No one wants to be responsible for their own actions anymore. Just find someone else to blame! I hope your tribe increases. We need more people with your attitude!

English as First and Only Language

pemaldak @pemaldak (79) • United States 21 Dec 06

Seinfeld

One of my favorite shows is Seinfeld. After numerous re-runs, this "show about nothing" still appeals to me and makes me laugh. Anyone else following the show?

pemaldak Yep, I guess one of it's appeal is the range of characters is so broad, yet they have so much in common. Does that make sense?

pemaldak @pemaldak (79) • United States 25 Dec 06
