Israel Preparing to Strike Iran Without U.S. Consent
airdvr replied to airdvr's topic in Speakers Corner
I've never been either but I know there are some grumblings from the younger folks who dislike the Imam religious/political structure. Nonetheless, it will be the government that will attempt to obliterate the Israeli's and history has shown Israel won't wait for that to happen. I say good on them. Please don't dent the planet.

Actual age - 49 Some days I feel 60 - some 40, and with all this gray creeping in I'd guess I'm looking a bit older. I too wish I hadn't spent so much time in the sun, so much $$ smoking, and done so many drugs in my youth. Still act like I'm 21 although I'm not so sure that's a good thing.

Israel Preparing to Strike Iran Without U.S. Consent
airdvr replied to airdvr's topic in Speakers Corner
On October 26, 2005, IRIB News, an English-language subsidiary of the state-controlled Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, filed a story on Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's recent speech to the "World Without Zionism" conference in Asia Our dear Imam (referring to Ayatollah Khomeini) said that the occupying regime must be wiped off the map and this was a very wise statement. We cannot compromise over the issue of Palestine. Is it possible to create a new front in the heart of an old front. This would be a defeat and whoever accepts the legitimacy of this regime has in fact, signed the defeat of the Islamic world. Our dear Imam targeted the heart of the world oppressor in his struggle, meaning the occupying regime. I have no doubt that the new wave that has started in Palestine, and we witness it in the Islamic world too, will eliminate this disgraceful stain from the Islamic world. If Ahmadinejad wants to flex he ought to be prepared for the consequences. We've pussy-footed around with this guy enough already. I think Israel realizes the US is not going to handle it so they might as well before Barry takes office. It'd be nice to settle this diplomatically but I don't think that's a possibility.

It just gets more insane.... United Auto Workers: Union Will Restart Contract Talks With Big 3 Car Manufacturers http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,461145,00.html "We're going to sit down and work out the mechanics," Gettelfinger said at a news conference after meeting with local union officials. "We're a little unclear on some of the issues." He's not unclear at all. He knows the UAW has Detroit by the short and curlies. ANd only when they get close to being able to tell him and his UAW mafia to fuck off do they respond. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

Worst Sales Performance of Any Car: Toyota Priushttp://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/12/car-sales-drop-prius-most.php Back to my point. DC will require small, fuel efficient vehicles the American buying public doesn't want in the numbers it will take to be profitable. And yet we get this.. Obviously, the more forward-thinking automakers that have built hybrids and concentrated on fuel efficiency have done better in the marketplace. Any bailout funding should be tied to requirements that they commit to building hybrids, clean diesels and other highly fuel-efficient vehicles. Look out...being told what you can drive is near.

True. And a large fraction of the US auto industry is already controlled by Japan and to a lesser degree the EU. Without doing a ton of research I'll go with that I think I know... 1. The big 3 sell alot of cars in the EU. Small, fuel efficient cars. I'm not sure why they don't sell them here but I think it has to do with government regs and the buying public's appetite. 2. The UAW has squeezed the big 3 to the breaking point. 3. Management doesn't know what to build anymore. My guess is DC will madate small, fuel efficient cars. I believe this will lead to the end for them. 4. As much as everyone hails cars like the Prius, Toyota hasn't yet found a way to make a profit on the sales of those cars. Giving them our tax money will only delay the inevitable. People are repulsed at the thought of the US car makers going bankrupt and the ripple effect it will have on the economy, but there will be new players to take the place of the folks that got burned. Detroit's bankruptcy won't be the end of them, it will be the transformation that needs to take place. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

Count me in for a copy. Melissa, I met and jumped with your Dad in Quincy when he brought in the C130 . He had an infectious laugh and an energy level that was amazing.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2008/12/03/congress-reviewing-survival-plans-big/ Am I missing something here? Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., said the mood in Congress "candidly is not supportive" of the automakers, although he called the consequences of just one of them failing "cataclysmic." "Two of the Big Three say they cannot survive until the end of the year and if one or more goes down, all three go down," Specter said at a round-table discussion in Philadelphia. Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, said the automakers still need to prove they can survive and be profitable. "If these companies are asking for taxpayer dollars, they must convince Congress that they are going to shape up and change their ways," Dodd said in a statement. Did these bozos require the same from the banks and insurance companies? For the record I am not a supporter of either "rescue plan". I think it ultimately weakens both industries. Steel manufacturers begged for the same in the '90's and were turned down. Steel is now a viable industry again. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

That either went over your head, or I stated it badly. I'll try again. I adore Joni Mitchell. Her musical and lyrical composition, her guitar virtuosity, her magical and incredible voice, her face, her hair, her lips, her eyes, her laugh, the curvature of her back. I really dig Graham Nash's music, too. Ah, but for a couple of years, he was her live-in boyfriend; thus, my former teen-age faux-jealousy. Get it now? I was torn between the two possibilities also. you phrased it like a lawyer ambiguously Ya know...I never got that whole Brit humor thing. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
