    oh.. wait - he's just a "disgruntled employee" http://electromagnet.us/dogspot/modules.php?name=N ews&file=article&sid=67

    Does that mean this event didn't happen in the US? http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/f ebruary/26/newsid_2516000/2516469.stm

    Are the groups identified here not terrorists?

    How about the KKK or any group who has the word Aryan in their name?

    Terrorism has been occuring in this country since its founding. The fear-mongering regarding terrorism is much more dangerous to the stability of this nation.

    And what evidence do you have of any attacks on American citizens or property by Saddam Hussein or any individual or group under his direct influence since we kicked him out of Kuwait?

    Or do you believe that he is somehow linked to the 9-11 attacks and Al-Qaeda.

    Replace American with Israeli and you'll then have
    a case for Israel to have done the job instead of us.

    Saddam Hussein did not start the war. We were attacked by a fanatic group supported by oil-rich Saudis who hold a similar fanatic world view.

    If feeble-minded Americans continue to believe whatever their mass-media and government spoon feed them we will be worse off as a country than Germany in May of 1945.

    George wants to be seen as some sort of conquering hero. A 'hero of freedom' throughout history.
    Such megalomania by anyone in power is extremely dangerous in any age.

    >> What Bush did was the EXACT opposite of treason, he is the only one who had the guts to go after the enemies of the US.

    Yep, Thanks to Bush, We can breathe easier now that Osama bin laden is in prison and that Al Qaeda is a shell of it's former self.

    Thanks to Bush, Iraq is now a stable democracy, where everyone lives in peace. It is now a shining beacon of freedom in the Middle East.

    Thanks to Bush, the rest of the world is praising the strength, character and honor of the good ole US of A.

    Uhhhh. oops. Nevermind.

  12. Re:Conspiracy on Researchers To Climb Ararat To Seek Noah's Ark · · Score: 1

    you said:

    "I take exception to that statement. The Bible states that two of every living thing and seven of every clean beast and two of every unclean beast were taken aboard. Most people just think it was two of everything."

    Huh??. which is it 2 of everything or 7 of some and 2 of the rest.

    So you _know_ that Noah loaded the Ark with two of every living thing (Gen 7:8-9) or was that 2 of every _unclean_ animal and 7 of the _clean_ animals. (Gen 7:2)

    If the former, then the "clean" species were extincted when Noah offered on his newly built altar: (Gen 8:20). So I guess the two of everything _must_ be true since _clean_ beasts appear after the flood.

    If the bible is inerrant than Gen 7:8-9 must be a misprint in my copies.

    Oops, Excuse me for using logic to question this. I'm averse to using fantasy and superstition when I try to think logically.

    You start off slamming the tool but the most of the rest of the rant lists complaints about the users of the tool.

    Replace the word Access with Paradox, or FileMaker Pro in your rant and the effect is the same.

    Any tool is much more useful to a professional than to an amateur. Too many amateurs think they can be just like a pro when given the proper tools. You should blame the "marketeers" for that.

    30%. This initiative was generated by the Federal Coordinating
    Council on Science and Engineering Technology (FCCSET, which is

    project has been pushed both by Bromley and Sen. Gore (D-TN),
