I am not saying that we were bit players. We were in Afghanistan with both feet. What I AM saying is that our participation in Afghanistan in the 1980s does not immediately translate into the Al Qaeda of Dar Es Salaam/Nairobi/Port of Aden/9-11. The mujaheddin turned into fodder for Al Qaeda because...

Were you not just arguing that everybody is privvy to democracy and some have chosen otherwise? Or are you willing to admit that certain cultures for a variety of reasons are behind the times and haven't had the right opportunity? BTW, I'm a sitll a nomad...of the wild Eastern Washington steppes . ...

We all descended from nomadic tribes. Some are just futher down the road. :coffee: There are men in the house of Saudi who's grandfathers were Nomadic Tribes rulers - I don't know about you but my grandfather worked for the railroad here in the USA do you get it..? Recently descended - like - famil...

I'll read a book as soon as clitorus answers my question: How can you make the ridiculous claim that people have "no interest in democracy" when they've never been exposed to it? He equates lack of action against the government with approval for their system of government. The two are not...

I think people in some countries living in dictatorship have no interest in democracy primarily due to religion... and usually monotheism. A country with a population of fervent, fundamentalist citizens with the belief that their dictator is ordained by God have no desire to overthrow, rebel agains...

Another factor in the modern sense is colonialism which could be argued has interupted the spread of democracy from time to time. An example would be Iran where the Brits and the U.S. removed the democratically elected leader Moussadeq from power in the 1950's right after he threatened to nationaliz...

Going back to your original point. I think self determination, egalitarianism, upward mobility, cooperation...democracy are very strong human impulses perhaps partly innate but definetly learned throughout the ages as man progresses. People don't simply chose a life of indentured servitude and livi...

There's a significant difference between a revolution and an "uprising". And most of those listed by wiki are in completely unstable environments like Niger, Azerbaijan, Darfur, Sudan, etc. Weak effort, at best. :ohno: :ohno: No, you're just WRONG... Governments change - frequently - and ...

Why not grow your own like UD does?

Wait...

nevermind.

I prefer home grown as well, but we've had two qb's since 2003 so perhaps we're due.

So you think companies like WR Grace that pollute and directly cause health care costs and deaths from mesothelema should be subsidized by the governement? Not much of a conservative small government guy are ya? :thumb: How do you get THAT out of my statement? :? :? :? :? I don't think the cleanup ...

:roll: And Montana got an Oregon QB last year, and NAU got a Missisippi State QB the year before that, and Montana got a WSU QB the year before that... Herrick was from Ole Miss, but the point remains the same. Oops, my bad. None the less I'm thinking there will be 4 BSC QB's (including EWU's Juco ...

Here's one them. You must be so proud. :thumb: http://sydwalker.info/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/lawrence_summers.jpg Actually, kalm, Summers did a damn fine job as Harvard president before the feminazis chased him out of town.

Good luck...hope you have better luck with your California JUCO transfer than UMass did... Kyle Havens came to UMass last season described as "Rivals position rating of 5.5. viz. "5.7-5.5 All-Region Selection; considered among the region's top prospects and among the top 750 or so prospec...

Agreed.

You could probably fit all the conservatives at Harvard into a phone booth, with room to spare.

You bastard, I thought the exact same thing when I watched the clip.

He might be one of the few in congress who is starting to get it. He might actually be a real progressive. I'm guessing he is not very happy about the health care legislation either. I don't blame you for disliking him Ive, we often tend to fear that which we don't understand. :kisswink: Yeah, but ...

From an article posted on the EagSports.com website: For the past two seasons, Modesto QB Greg Panelli (6-3, 230) has been one of the top passers in the California JUCO ranks. He almost left last summer, but when recruiting interest waned he decided to play one more season with the Pirates. On Wedne...

Oh, I forgot. Public schools can't do that because we can't hold parents or kids responsible for their actions. The race towards mediocrity starts and ends with watering down the public schools in an effort to include everyone. Ironic. That's a very big problem especially after grade school. But ag...

I'm sorry you feel so threatened by populist speech. Let me guess, you're not a very big fan of Jesse Ventura either. The hoi poloi and those of us who count them as customers however appreciate a little plain talk and blunt language from time to time. We've figured out these type of ideas are bett...

On second thought z fuck it.

This is a piece of shit bill that exemplifies all that's wrong with our political system. Unintended consequences, corporatism, political buy offs, etc.

Old Newt is just pissin' because he's not the one who gets to take credit for it.
