The Iraq war has been a HUGE....jittter to the world oil markets.... The price of crude dropped $1.00 in the last 30 minutes. I guess that means we're winning the war. From August of '06 to Jan. '07 the price of crude fell by 35%. Was it caused by our activities in Iraq? All the more profit for Exxon-Mobil and friends.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

skydyvr 0 #54 May 31, 2007 QuoteI think Planned Parenthood folks see a difference between a few-week fetus and a kid. I do. Among other things, if I miss a period and then have a heavy one (often a sign of an early miscarriage), I don't have a funeral. Sure, you have to draw a line somewhere, but I suspect PP draws it a lot further south than you portray. . . =(_8^(1) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
