It was always drawing to an end. In 1967 it was almost over, samething a year later, in 1970, same thing. People got tired of the bull

With the human population growing, with the middle class of the world set to expand upon the resumption of economic growth, it behoves us to do something about energy, pollution and conservation whether global warming is real or not. In my view the environmentalists are right even if global warming is wrong. Things will change whether we lead or do nothing. Its better to get out in front on this and ignore the howls of the pro-pollution crowd. And it looks like Obama is serious about this change: http://www.salon.com/tech/htww/2008/12/10/steven_chu/

Vietnam is finally over with this last election, IMO. It played a role in 2004 but McCain's loss this year showed it just doesn't really matter that much anymore. The "Stab in the Back" theory much pushed on the right that the media is to blame for us losing in Nam is taken to absurd lengths by Jim here. The Stab theory relys more on Tet in 1968 than anything. That battle WAS a huge American victory looking at it on the face of things. It was a failure for the United States if you put it in context of the time. LBJ, McNamaa and the rest of them were going on and on about how the war was just about won, how we just needed to get past the 1968 election and all would be fine, blah, blah. Then the Vietnmese pulled off a stunning attack. Why was it so stunning? Because the very people that were were suppose to be protecting said nothing while the North smuggled in thousands of troops, weapons and other supplies right under our noses and no one said anything about it. All across the south this was happening yet the attack was a surprise. After this happened many Americans, including Walter Cronkite turned against the war. Yet it went on for another six years

Not at all. These things are awesomo! https://www.wegmans.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s...:ProductDisplay

OMG! I read a few posts! LOL!!!

Well congradu-f**kinglations to you sport! This is really something to be good at!

Job? How do you find the time? Seems like posting here is your job.

"Major combat operations in Iraq have ended" quick, who said this while standing in front of a banner saying "Mission Accomplished"? Taken out of context, of course

Maybe that's why Boomer used the "praying" icon for him. Freudian slip

He'll probably get a job from one of Obama's public works projects

The Blues Brothers

Yes, you knit wit, much like Milliard Fillore helped create the telegraph by getting funding to put the infrsastructure together. You are a tool

Go back to sleep

Oh Kay

LOL, no, they are pre-cooked and then frozen. I should have said that. Don't care what anyone thinks, they are awesome!

Ya? I still think she is more rational and intelligent than that baboon Hannity who really is a hysterical screamer. I use to love listening to him during the Terri Schivo flap, "And, just as she was about to....to....talk...and they had her killed."

Best wings ever. Go to Wegmans and buy the frozen wings. Put them in the microwave for like four minutes. Take them out, shake them up and back in for 3 minutes, take them out and pour Frank's hot sauce all over them and put them back in for another 3 to 4 minutes. Take out, let cool and then pour blue cheese dressing all over them. It's like a chicken wing soup, and absolutley fabulous!

She may be biased to the left, but she is way more balanced--and sane--than Hannity

It might be inevitable. And I dunno, a little rioting might be fun

Perhaps that's the problem

What if you are out of beer and need to go to the store???

As the economy slides down, I wonder if we will see more of this? http://www.salon.com/wires/ap/world/2008/1...iots/index.html

Wonderful! Sound bite history. Just to play contrarian, do you think it was ok for the United States to launch a massive bombing raid on Cambodia, or to undermine and help overthrow its ruler? And how many more bombs should we have dropped on Vietnam? That tiny country country had more American bombs fall on it than we dropped in World War Two. Hadn't we done enough damage to those countries by 1973?

Great news! I feel great for those workers.
