They should give that mother fucker far more than that. Asshole. Maybe it's a thing with people who have 'Berger' in their last name. This fuckwad needs the living shit beaten out of him. I wonder if he stuffed it in his pants/socks like that other piece of shit Sandy Berger. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

I was in Zimbabwe in 2001. Beautiful country. When I was there and speaking with some locals, I knew trouble was coming. It looks like it's far worse than I imagined it would be. Mugabe is a worthless piece of shyte and should be exterminated. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Boortz, who doesn't like Bill O'Reilly, had a good commentary about race: "Last night on the "Talking Points" segment of his show O'Reilly was talking about Obama's speech and the racial dialogue in this country. O'Reilly said that we are never going to be able to engage in a constructive dialogue on race in this country as long as there are so many bogus charges of racism. He's right. Whites in America know that they can't engage in any honest dialogue on racial matters because there will always be some race-baiter out there who is going to start yelling racism. Whenever you say anything of a critical nature about a black person in this country ... whether you're criticizing actions or beliefs ... you can bet your last dollar that somewhere someone is going to start yelling "racist" in your face. Better just to keep your mouth shut and go about your business. This is something I have been ranting about for 15 years. Yes ... we have racial difficulties in this country. Frankly, I don't think that there is any well in hell for people of different races and cultures to live together without some degree of friction. I know several bi-racial couples. These people love each other, yet their relationship is not completely free of bumps in the road caused by their differences. Fact of life ... not going to completely go away. Racial difficulties can be caused by racism, to be sure. They can also be caused by bigotry, prejudice and simple misunderstandings. If you try to address the problem of bigotry by identifying it as racism ... you're getting nowhere. But try to expand the conversation to cover all of these elements and what do you get? You get called a racist. And let's not forget the element of culturalism. Now there's a word you don't hear often. This would be because it is far more permissible to discuss race, though you will certainly be branded a racist, than it is to discuss culture. Let's just look at the crime rate in this country. There is no legitimate challenge to the fact that young black men commit violent crimes in this country in greater proportion than do young white men. Now does anyone with any logical thinking ability at all actually think this disparate crime rate is due to the color of one' skin? Is there something in the genetic makeup of a young black man that makes him want to pull his sweatshirt up over his head and rob a convenience store or kill a young college coed? Hardly. The propensity to follow a life of crime comes from the culture you were raised in ... not the amount of light that reflects off your skin. And don't give me this poverty nonsense either. There were times in this country when young blacks lived in poverty far more severe than anything experienced today ... yet the predilection to crime was not there. Do you know why we can't discuss culture in this country? Because culture can be overcome, that's why. A person can overcome their culture, but not their skin color. Once it is understood that a person's behavior is based more on cultural influences they can overcome than on a skin color they can't change the victimhood disappears. Victimhood is a cherished status in this country ... something not given up freely."

Interesting. What a large thread this has generated. Sign of a good speech. Couple of comments: - The Reverend Wright is a racist - just like Al $harpton, Je$$e Jack$on and Farrakhan. That being said, I'm glad Obama stood by his friend. You can disagree with somebody and still be their friend. - All you left wingers who have slammed conservatives for speaking @ Bob Jones University - think about the current dialogue over Obama & Wright. Speech vs long time association. Now look in the mirror and say 'hypocrite, hypocrite, hypocrite' for a while unless you recant slamming coservatives for making a speech or two at BJU - unless you're also slamming Obama for his association w/Rev Wright. Hope you're rethinking and won't slam Mr. Obama for his friendship with this fellow. - "his time we want to talk about the fact that the real problem is not that someone who doesn't look like you might take your job; it's that the corporation you work for will ship it overseas for nothing more than a profit." - what a dumbfuck. Corporations EXIST for profit. Dumbass. - I don't like the term 'black community' nor the term 'white community'. It's self identification by race that's a problem. - I don't like Obama's politics, but this wasn't overall a bad speech I would say. Not very deep, but it played well to its intended audience and he seemed to orate it quite eloquently. Haven't paid much attention to this stuff from over here, but this caught my eye.

If a contract has been awarded by the Source Selection Authority then the shopping around has already been done.

Clicky This is tacit approval of violating acquisition law on the part of these buffoons. Sweet Jesus. Do these people WONDER why they've no credibility with most people of any intellect availing themselves of its use? When these idiots criticizing McCain's role in the Boeing imbroglio speak of respect for the law and on any budget issues, it's going to be hard NOT to think 'fucking idiot with no credibility' every single time.

It IS March! LoL! Sounds like you need to do some tai chi or yoga. Hope your foot gets better. I partiipated in the Highland Games here in Bahrain yesterday. Great fun, but I'm a bit sore. Tossing the caber was no joke - it was FUN, though. My first attempt sucked but I turned it at 12:00 the second toss. Hehehehehe. I'd like to try that again a few times. My team took second. Hope a nice run, some stretching, and swimming tomorrow will make the soreness go away. Going to run with the Hash this evening then hit the pool for a mile or so tomorrow. Jet lag has been beaten down so now it's time to kick ass. I drank enough beer, scotch, and tequila at the Games yesterday to make me feel frumpy, so I NEED to work out. The more I work out, the more I can drink with a clean conscience

That is interesting to read! I don't like it that race and Hitlery's gender are even issues. Maybe if hell freezes over and I have kids they'll see that day. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

I did read it. Having a nice ability to digest statistics, I note an incredible improvement between 1995 and the year the report was published. With that in mind, when anyone quotes a # of veterans being sexually harrassed/assaulted and those vets being unhappy with the response the military had, if they don't state when the veterans served, they have no credibility with me. Different eras=different military climate. I've seen discrimination and don't like it. Note my abhorrence of affirmative action.

I just read the Israelis did not break off peace talks. Good for them. Hamas claimed responsibility on its radio then back-tracked. Shitheads. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

What same old shyte is that? Demanding proof of a hypothesis prior to agreeing with it? Reading objectively? Having a better than average knowledge of statistics? Get used to it - I'm not stopping any of them. The 'you're just sexist if you're against Hillary' argument is just as goat-fuck stupid as the 'you're a racist if you're against Obama' argument. Misogyny shouldn't be a major issue of the day because there's really only one side to the argument - nobody supports it. Deal with it. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Yes, you've thrown horseshit, but none of it proves anything about your point that misogyny should be a major issue of the day or that folks denouncing Madame Clinton are misogynysts. If one were to consider accusation equivalent to guilt, assume that any report should be acted upon and end in court martial, that the military should be able to act upon charges never filed and allegations never brought, and actually not read the articles objectively, I suppose they MIGHT come to a similar conclusion as you seem to have done. The article in the LA Slimes by the feminist peace activist is just outright stupid. About what one would expect from that paper. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Bullshit. Whoever wrote this article is quite obviously wanting to draw attention, make this an issue, and then accuse anybody who disagrees w/Mrs. Clinton of sexism or misogyny. The part about the military is abhorrent: "The sexual mistreatment of women in the military is widespread. The Defense Department financed a study in 2003 of female veterans seeking health assistance from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Nearly a third of those surveyed said they had been the victim of a rape or attempted rape during their service." When did these women serve? They were SURVEYED in '03. Times have changed drastically over the past several decades. No details on the eras when those surveyed served equates to this being a frivolous statement about today's military. This is slander - completely unsubstantiated by the facts therein. "The Associated Press reported in 2006 that more than 80 military recruiters had been disciplined over the course of a year because of sexual misconduct with young women and girls who had considered joining the military." 80 out of how many? What defines misconduct? A person in their 20s having consensual sex with an applicant or a potential applicant is considered misconduct. Unprofessional? Absolutely. Misogynystic - not necessarily. "There continue to be widespread complaints from women about rape and other forms of sexual attacks in the military, and about a culture that tends to protect the attackers." In EVERY unit I've served - bullshit. The accused would have FAR more need of protection than someone making the accusation. The author should quantify that or shut the fuck up. Baseless accusation unsubstantiated by any evidence - just like the aforementioned slurs. The 'you disagree with Hillary therefore you're sexist' argument is just as stupid as the 'you disagree with Barack Obama therefore you're a racist' argument. Sexism and misogyny aren't issues in the campaign because they're both detested and despised by the majority of the electorate of all political affiliations. Pedophiles and murderers are even more reviled by society - rightfully so - and neither have been mentioned in the debate. There's no need. Mediocre article at best. The slander on the services is despicable. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

I don't think it so difficult to implement - no more so than the current code. I'm against having taxes collected from gasoline specifically placed towards one particular line of accounting.

I support kind of a hybrid. I like the idea of a flat tax, but only if it's kept at a low level in conjunction with a national retail sales tax which would exempt gasoline and groceries.

Moi? A congressman I'm not...though I DID just email the idea to Neal Boortz, my favorite political commentator. Perhaps I'll shoot a line to my congressmen and senators as well. The idea IS ingenious and would make the socialists who propose such moronic taxes look like fools to everyone and not just those of us with three digit IQs...

I've got a GREAT idea for some extra cash! A Windfall Union Donations Tax! Since a bunch of dumb-fucks are whiskey bent and hell bound on taking $$ from oil companies who have record profits via an abomination called a windfall profits tax - the same dumb-fucks who don't know the difference between profit and profit margin - they should be oh so happy for a Windfall Union Donations Tax! After all, if those unions have so much $ to donate to political campaigns, which is not the core function of any union, then they most assuredly have a few extra $$ to contribute to the federal budget. ROFLMAO! Bwaaaaaahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa!!!!!!! Somebody should propose that on the national level every time some dumb bastard mentions that stupid tax on the oil companies, just to watch the left wingers squirm!

I've been on travel for the past week and just got back to the Middle East. A marathon friend took it upon herself to damage me running while in South Carolina. I hadn't done over 7-8 miles in a while, but wasn't going to stop either. Swimming and my usual blast of calisthenics will be the order of the week for me! Hope you like the sugar free syrups.

NAFTA's a good thing and will continue to be a good thing...a bit of US leadership at the Doha round of the GATT would be a good thing as well. Dem's will blast NAFTA because it's something a large chunk of their ignorant voting base will be able to recognize from recent history. They might make some mileage on it - might not. They SHOULD have been screaming bloody murder about the GWB lack of interest/leadership at the DOHA round, but that wouldn't earn them points with their base, most of whom couldn't even find Doha on a map. NAFTA views from either party shouldn't affect swing voters much, I would think. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
