    I think that is REALLY reaching. Was there infidelity before condoms were around? Of course there was. You take away the condoms, you will NOT stop premarital sex. You will just make it less safe. Do you think the a spouse thinks, "Well, I would not cheat but since we got these handy condoms things, I think I will?" I don't really think that goes through his/her mind. If someone is going to cheat, they are going to cheat. And if they are worried about pregnancy and they have no comdoms...well, blowjobs are still cheating. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    And that is the problem. You can wish for it, you can teach, you can preach against it, but you WILL NOT ever stop premarital sex. It does not even matter if the people involved firmly believe in only marital sex; everyone has the possibility of a breakdown in their self-restraint at some point. So, the best thing is to ensure that people know ALL available tools so if they DO breakdown, at least they can TRY to be safe and responsible within that breakdown. Sound illogical? Perhaps, but the world and reality often is. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    You are arguing against this with something that is not going to change: the family stationed overseas is doing a tour of duty. They are not coming back right now and the families know that. This is ONE way the families are coping. They requested it. No one has said this is some solution to the larger issue (bringing the troops home), but you are making it into that. To use your analogy, if the family said to the Navy, "hey, I know you cannot bring my family member back right now, but that Big Mac sure would help me feel better." would the proper response be "No?"

    Exactly. As I said, I think it is dumb, but then I am not in their position. Everyone deals with stuff in their own way. If it helps thems, who cares? I remember when I used to work in a high stress restaurant. Ocassionally, I would go into the freezer and punch boxes of frozen peas and carrots when I got overworked. Is that rationale? Not really. Does everyone need to do the same thing? Nope. Did it work for me? I am pleased to say I left that job without harming a single individual. The peas and carrots are another story.

    This tells me you either did not read or did not bother to understand it. That article was nothing but lighthearted and positive about the situation. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Troops on the battlefield and families at home are QUITE different things. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Did you even bother reading the damn article or are you just spitting because it is Maine? A Sergeant First Class started the program and families have REQUESTED to have the cutouts done. Furthermore, it is not necessarily a MAINE idea: No one is forcing it upon them and it is helping some of them. Just because it doesn't work for you is not a good reason to discount it for others. Personally, i think it is dumb, but I am not coping with it, so who cares? What, do you not support the families of troops or something? See how dumb that type of statement sounds?

    As long as we can keep the situations as polarized as possible then we are clearly doing the best we can for the country. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Yes, he may have been going 200mph but that was not a DOWNWARD velocity. It was FORWARD. If he was up for over 4 minutes, I am sure the downward speed was much slower. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    No quade. Every problem has to be political. Have you learned NOTHING from SC? In anycase, the article says the families REQUESTED them. Who am I to say how someone is supposed to deal with having a loved one away? Weird, but hey so is alot of stuff I do. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    This is moot. The domain is registered in America. The IP is also located in America. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    The British controlled Palestine. They had a MANDATE to be the administrators. It was a territory of the British empire. Before that it was a territory of the Ottoman Empire. It was not sovereign. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Actually, the main point was an increase in violence. Civil war as a result was a secondary point. You even said that the first article did not address what bill was talking about. You chose to focus solely on the civil war aspect, while bill focused more on just the worsening of the situation. So you both are arguing different aspects of the same problem. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    "inhabitants of Palestine". There's that "P" word again. So basically Israel was a nation established within the borders of Palestine and Israel was supposed to respect the Palestinian inhabitants within the borders of Israel. That sound about right? Yes, and that little fun fact was incidental (being that I believe neither side is taking correct action) to the main point I was making: Palestine was not a country before Israel came about. You tried to imply it was. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Did you type it in invisible text? Because otherwise, I missed the omission of whatever point you were trying to make. If you point was solely that there are sources, I think the fact that he responded to them is not an omission of the point. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    I have a bad habit of doing that. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    He responded to the points of the articles. You just don't like what he has to say so you write it off as "slick" or "lefty-tactics" instead of giving counter-rationale of why he is incorrect. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    See attached. You need to look up what mandate means. In this particular case, Britain was given control of the territory as adminstrators by the League of Nations (superheroes AWAY!!! ...sorry, I think that everytime I hear LoN). The area was called Palestine, but was a British territory. Before that it was an Ottoman Empire territory. Furthermore, and I had no idea about this...but in 1922 the League of Nations passed The Palestinian Mandate which stated explicitly that adminstrators (Britain) would: ' "secure the establishment of the Jewish national home", while "safeguarding the civil and religious rights of all the inhabitants of Palestine"' Why yes, my license number is a palindrome.

    And yet, you give NO real data. Very critical of his post, yet little to back up your own. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Oh yeah? That's what we want you to think Wendy W. Geez Wendy. Why don't you just TELL them our plans? Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    He was hardly alone in that. There were three training camps in Ontario, Canada. Don't see you invading us any time soon. Still doesn't explain why the US has really turned the far majority of their effort on Iraq and almost completely abandoned (in comparison) Afghanistan, which really is much more related to it all. I believe the bigger picture is Iran. Iraq is a part of that equation So now we invaded Iraq to get to Iran? Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Honestly, I have no idea about Lott and whether he is trustworthy or not. But I am more inclined to believe peer-reviewed articles than to trust him just because he says he is correct. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    Oh my god! You got a responce [sic] from the guy telling you that he is correct. Well then, it must certainly be true. "Hey, I found problems with your research." "No, it is correct." "oh, okay then." Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

    I know. I never said you didn't. Well, I did and then I rescinded that bit after I realized my mistake. I was just pointing out the actual purpose here.
