Do you guys live in far away isolated cabins with internet access?

Actually Jelly we started a limited total war during the height of the insurgency (egads sounds like Vietnam doublespeak) after watching the Brits employ it with results in Basra. Take sniper fire...

I didn't say soldiers particularly support the war, they just go about their business with amazing professionalism and dedication. Just about none want be in Iraq.

Obama didn't will by a popular...

Yeah, one wonders were you used to buy your food Bango, did someone put a gun to your head and force you to always buy over processed crap?

Umm, like I said DJ, have you actually talked to a US...

The British do indeed field a well trained, highly disciplined soldier with a lot of tradition behind him. Call me a nationalist but I'll stay with the common US soldier. No other country has the...

I don't mind waiting a few months to gloat. USA, Western Europe, Eastern Europe and then China and India, look for the Chinese market to flatline next. Domino's. The US sets the market, the rest can...

Just a general btw to all of you that have been following my political and economic postings in general. The line forms to the right for all the naysayers who said oil would never go under $50/barrel...

Have you actually talked to anyone who serves in the US active military? Their professionalism and high morale always amazes me. Most of them realized when they signed up it wouldn't always be a...

It was the policies (the draft) and failures of Vietnam, which caused the decline of the US military. Which still at that point were a more effective force then the Soviets on their best day (a very...

The power vacuum in Iraq has been filled and there is seemingly now a dominant faction. The US won't be leaving Iraq for a long time, unless the situation goes Vietnam. There will be a draw down of...

Run, an article of JayZ humanitarian efforts from 2002, eh? I don't think Mother Theresa or Bill Gates for the matter will be too worried about the competition. Mr Z has taken a lot and hasn't given...

DW, entertainers are just that. What exactly doesn't JayZ stand for? Making $? Big deal. The real people who make a difference are those who leave the world a better place from when they came in....

DJ, I don't see how your percentage math adds up. Obama won 53% of the popular vote and McCain 46%. On an unrelated note it's time to do anyway with the electoral college.

Ezinho, this thread was...

The US president makes 400k/year, not exactly a high paying CEO job, however the corporate jet and company housing is pretty sweet.

DW, Obama is black and he's a man, he's also the first black...

The US has and will continue to have (for the foreseeable future) the largest military in the world. No one else has even shown a remote inkling of dedicating the amount of resources it would take to...

Happy to say Obama said in a TV interview if she's in the country illegally the laws should be obeyed and she should be deported. I was on the fence on Obama, I was going to vote for a third party...

The situation in of itself isn't about Obama, it's how he reacts to it that will be the most telling. His best course of action would be, 'I believe the immigration officials are investigating it...

As I said, slowly but surely we are overcoming that.

Do you think it was a coincidence that they picked a black man to voice Darth Vader? :)

I know what you mean about the last part. I was...

Dr S, I like to keep it simple, Obama and Kravitz are men, they are black skinned, that makes them black men. Is it inherently bad to identify them by their skin color? Of course for the next four...

Most people think W and company have brought the country to the brink. People look at their 401k's, know (or are) people who can't find a job or had their house foreclosed/foreclosing on. And...

Joe,

1) No
2) Sarah Palin is very good at doing what grandfatherly white men tell her to do, whether it's God or the powers at the RNP.


To all,

I always like to think of W as Grant, a...

DD my secondary education was in Geneva and I went to a university in Cambridge. You are right, I probably don't know too much about the Ivy League. :) The Ivy League is all about legacies and...

Who, where to start...

First off Barry O'Bomber - his high school basketball nickname is pretty white bread apple pie. Dropped his middle name? Change his first name? The Republicans are still...

Sad to say most of the anti Obama's I encounter are racists (not to imply if you are Anti Obama you are a racist). Either in the closet or openly embracing their racism, personally I prefer the ones...

Dirk I think if you read some of CB's recent comments he has all the touch button's checked off. Why are you bothering? ;)

If you dress like a professional and act that way people generally treat...
