Your are quite right Smithinjapan, about me being prejudiced. I don't have a problem with that because not all prejudices are wrong. Until you can show me the demonstrations by the islamic people who say they are peaceful who not only condemn these kinds of acts, but call for the criminals to be prosecuted as well, I will maintain my prejudice. Sorry if that doesn't fit into your politically correct world.

Moderator: Please do not bring your prejudices to this discussion board.

The only thing that surprises me is the amount of time it is taking to outlaw tobacco usage. Smoking and driving are a dangerous combination. There is no valid argument to the contrary.

Kind of funny that they outlaw the use of cell phones when driving, but they allow drivers to place burning objects in their hands and between their lips when driving. If you apply the same logic to tobacco that they applied to the use of cell phones while driving, then smoking and driving should be against the law as well.

Moderator: Readers, cell phones are not relevant to this discussion.

Not a very well thought out statement. He has provided the enemy with a goal, and stated targets that would be the best bang for their buck...Who's side are you really on Obama???

Posted in: U.S. seeks to smooth relations with Afghan leader See in context

It seems that the Obama administration has a trend of poor international diplomacy. The Karzai issue is endemic of Obama's weakness in the international community, as well as the Obama administration's problem with Israel, Iran, Iraq, Venezuela, Cuba, and Japan...What seems to be the problem Obama??? No leadership abilities???

Posted in: Obama urges patience as health care law kicks in See in context

The bill won't work until they take health and medical insurance out of the hands of insurance companies and put it in the hands of the government. Only then will a socialized health program have a fighting chance to work...

All they need to do now is arm them with stun guns and 9mm automatics, and they will be all set. If they were in the US, it is likely that they would have their Segway stolen on the first use...

These days, anything that is associated with Australia is over priced. This guy is a famous breakfast chef??? Never heard of him. If you look at the lineup of the celebrities that are mentioned, most of them are known as the cooks of Hollywood. I guess if you have their kind of money, you can be a fan of whatever you like...

Posted in: U.S. troop deaths double in Afghanistan See in context

HeyLars...The reason there is more shooting and more encounters is because of the push against the oppressive taliban. If you had been following the news, you could have figured that out...as most other readers can...

Posted in: Arab League chief urges closer ties with Iran See in context

When has the Arab League ever taken a position on anything that was favorable to Israel??? Seems like a pretty biased lot if you ask me... Polarizing politics in the Middle East is what prevents any progress in the peace process.

Doesn't it stand to reason mathematically, that the more shooting and more encounters you have, the higher the amount of casualties??? There is a direct relationship between the two...

Just because they are famous, they think they can coerce anyone to talk with them...I don't think so...further, people have the right to not be filmed in their daily activities if they so desire. Hence the walls and tarps.
