  1. What do you want to do, put a black line around a picture? This is super simple is Illustrator
  2. It's subject is HI (It says that in the link above)
  3. I really doubt it was because we invaded iraq... maybe it was because we said we would withdraw all economic sanctions against his country? or maybe so they wouldn't have to pay all those families for the panam incident? What has the attack on iraq really proven We don't know he has the weapons of mass destruction... we know the un inspectors couldn't find any, and iraq couldn't account for their destruction...

  5. Yeah, plug it into the front where the volume control is?
  6. Dirty President... Dirty Administration... Not even surprised anymore... Every Friday (The day the least people pay attention to the news), The White House makes announcements like this that quickly go unnoticed, camouflaged by stupid news like Jackson dancing on the top of a truck. Dirty, disgusting, and globally embarrassing. I can't even fathom how people who call themselves Republican don't acknowledge the things this administration does as wrong. It's not a leftie, democrat, liberal, or left wing kind of thing. This is about practical right and wrong and how many behind our backs types of things these guys can do before even the righties, republicans, and conservatives stand up and say what the fuck is this crap!
  7. It's all about the external monitor with the 12" powerbook. It extends the desktop, rather than duplicating it, and you can move all your menus to the monitor, and make the powerbook screen an extension of the monitor. Add a cheap usb keyboard, and an optical mouse, and throw that powerbook in a drawer or behind the monitor and you've got a ton of desk space and a super powerful computer. The 12" powerbook is super, but please purchase the extended warranty (you have a year from initial purchase to activate an extended warranty on these), and consider insurance.
  8. These freakin' people are so freakin' dirty... It is honestly depressing, even if it is just a rumor.
  9. That's the girl from MTV Road Rules!

  19. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/news/archive/2004/01/12/national2022EST0762.DTL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Army War College article says invasion of Iraq was 'strategic error' BOB JOHNSON, Associated Press Writer Monday, January 12, 2004 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ (01-12) 17:22 PST MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- A report published by the Army War College calls the Bush administration's war on terrorism unfocused and says the invasion of Iraq was "a strategic error." The research paper by Jeffrey Record, a professor at the Air War College at Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery, said the president's strategy "promises much more than it can deliver" and threatens to spread U.S. military resources too thin. Record also wrote that Saddam Hussein's Iraq did not present a threat to the United States and was a distraction from the war on terrorism. Record is a visiting professor at the Army War College at Carlisle Barracks, Pa. The paper was published last month by the Army War College's Strategic Studies Institute. Lt. Col. Merideth Bucher, public affairs officer for the Army War College, said Monday it is not unusual for students, mostly higher ranking officers, at the war college to be exposed to critical thought that might be contrary to current national policy. She said students are often exposed to speakers with varying views. The director of the Strategic Studies Institute, Douglas Lovelace Jr., said it was originally founded by President Dwight Eisenhower to take a critical independent analysis of military issues from an academic perspective. "Dr. Record is a noted national security specialist. It's not at all at odds for us to analyze a given mission and arrive at a conclusion that seems at odds with national policy," Lovelace said. He said in the past the institute has released studies analyzing U.S. policy in Haiti, Afghanistan and other hot spots. Record could not be reached immediately for comment Monday through Army public affairs offices and he did not immediately respond to e-mails from The Associated Press. He is the author of six books and is a former legislative assistant for national security affairs to Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Georgia, and former Sen. Lloyd Bentsen, D-Texas. Record's report concludes that the war on terrorism is too widespread and should focus on al-Qaeda and other terrorist threats to the United States. "The United States may be able to defeat al-Qaeda, but it cannot rid the world of terrorism, much less evil," Record writes. Interesting...
  20. Thanks for bringing this a little closer to being locked...
  21. Saddam let the inspectors around the country... They reported that there was NO evidence of any weapons program in Iraq. It didn't clear him, and the country is unstable anyway. The US is beginning to quietly withdraw the inspectors (400 last week), and will probably continue to do so until June where the Coalition passes control to the governing council.
  22. I think the issue in the article isn't that there was a plan of attack for Iraq, but rather that the administration was already planning it's attack on Iraq before 9/11. Forget about Deepthroat, forget about ex-politicians being bitter... These are just disractions from the real issue. That issue is whether or not this administration is doing the best things for the people of America, and its economy. Being Lied to is just the tip of the iceburg. Axis of evil? 45 minutes away from a nuclear strike? Active WMD Program? Ties with Al-Qaeda? Tax cuts for everyone? There's a serious trend here that's simply undeniable... But hey, what do I know? I'll just stir the pot with my ignorance.

  24. I think that this is one of the more f&cked up things I have read about Bush... http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/01/10/oneill.bush/index.html In new book, ex-Treasury secretary criticizes administration Saturday, January 10, 2004 Posted: 7:21 PM EST (0021 GMT) Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill served nearly two years in Bush's Cabinet. (CNN) -- The Bush administration began planning to use U.S. troops to invade Iraq within days after the former Texas governor entered the White House three years ago, former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill told CBS News' 60 Minutes. "From the very beginning, there was a conviction that Saddam Hussein was a bad person and that he needed to go," O'Neill told CBS, according to excerpts released Saturday by the network. "For me, the notion of pre-emption, that the U.S. has the unilateral right to do whatever we decide to do, is a really huge leap." O'Neill, who served nearly two years in Bush's Cabinet, was asked to resign by the White House in December 2002 over differences he had with the president's tax cuts. O'Neill was the main source for "The Price of Loyalty: George W. Bush, the White House, and the Education of Paul O'Neill," by former Wall Street Journal reporter Ron Suskind. The CBS report is scheduled to be broadcast Sunday night; the book is to be released Tuesday by publisher Simon & Schuster. Suskind said O'Neill and other White House insiders gave him documents showing that in early 2001 the administration was already considering the use of force to oust Saddam, as well as planning for the aftermath. "There are memos," Suskind told the network. "One of them marked 'secret' says 'Plan for Post-Saddam Iraq.'" Suskind cited a Pentagon document titled "Foreign Suitors For Iraqi Oilfield Contracts," which, he said, outlines areas of oil exploration. "It talks about contractors around the world from ... 30, 40 countries and which ones have what intentions on oil in Iraq." In the book, O'Neill is quoted as saying he was surprised that no one in a National Security Council meeting asked why Iraq should be invaded. "It was all about finding a way to do it. That was the tone of it. The president saying 'Go find me a way to do this,'" O'Neill said. Suskind also described a White House meeting in which he said Bush seemed to waver about going forward with a second round of tax cuts. "Haven't we already given money to rich people... Shouldn't we be giving money to the middle?" Suskind says Bush asked, according to what CBS called a "nearly verbatim" transcript of an economic team meeting Suskind said he obtained from someone at the meeting. O'Neill also said in the book that President Bush "was like a blind man in a roomful of deaf people" during Cabinet meetings. One-on-one meetings were no different, O'Neill told the network. Describing his first such meeting with Bush, O'Neill said, "I went in with a long list of things to talk about and, I thought, to engage [him] on. ... I was surprised it turned out me talking and the president just listening. It was mostly a monologue." White House spokesman Scott McClellan brushed off O'Neill's criticism. "We appreciate his service, but we are not in the business of doing book reviews," he told reporters. "It appears that the world according to Mr. O'Neill is more about trying to justify his own opinion than looking at the reality of the results we are achieving on behalf of the American people. The president will continue to be forward-looking, focusing on building upon the results we are achieving to strengthen the economy and making the world a safer and better place." A senior administration official, who asked not to be named, expressed bewilderment at O'Neill's comments on the alleged war plans. "The treasury secretary is not in the position to have access to that kind of information, where he can make observations of that nature," the official said. "This is a head-scratcher." Even before the interview is broadcast, the topic became grist for election-year politics. Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, who is the early front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination, issued a statement in response. "I've always said the president had failed to make the case to go to war with Iraq," Dean said. "My Democratic opponents reached a different conclusion, and in the process, they failed to ask the difficult questions. Now, after the fact, we are learning new information about the true circumstances of the Bush administration's push for war, this time, by one of his former Cabinet secretaries. "The country deserves to know -- and the president needs to answer -- why the American people were presented with misleading or manufactured intelligence as to why going to war with Iraq was necessary." Democratic Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts also issued a statement. In 2002, Kerry voted to support a resolution giving Bush authority to wage war against Iraq if it didn't dismantle its presumed illegal weapons program. "These are very serious charges. It would mean [Bush administration officials] were dead-set on going to war alone since almost the day they took office and deliberately lied to the American people, Congress, and the world," Kerry said. "It would mean that for purely ideological reasons they planned on putting American troops in a shooting gallery, occupying an Arab country almost alone. The White House needs to answer these charges truthfully because they threaten to shatter [its] already damaged credibility as never before." This is a dirty Administration...
