ReBirth

I found that his books all seemed to start to take on the same theme of the creepy northeastern town and its whacky inhabitants. I loved the way Randall Flag was inserted into multiple books, even for just cameo appearances. And the way he tied different stories together with crossover characters and locations. But I think my tastes changed to something more indepth than anything he's capable of cranking out. The last couple books I've read have been The Divine Comedy and The Brothers Karamazov.

Oh...and let's not forget the fake news stories about Medicare that the President had produced in an effort to decieve the American public. But yeah...I have nothing to stand on. He's as honest as the day is long. Guess it's not the same when he pays other people (with federal money) to lie for him.

Ummm, I believe it was quoted earlier where Bush stated that we had secured WMD sites in Iraq, that Rumsfeld stated we knew specifically where stockpiles were hidden. Are you claiming those exist? That stuff wasn't based on intelligence. Those were claims of supposed fact made by the administration that were WRONG. By the way...can you name one campaign promise that Bush has kept? Seems to me they were all lies as well.

Good point...some of them proved themselves wrong, too.

I read everything he ever wrote up to Needful Things. Most of it before I was 14. Then it seems like he just stopped trying to do anything original.

Hmmm, I could have sworn it was out before The Stand. Maybe I'm thinking of a different book.

Well...it doesn't much matter what any of them think does it? They didn't invade and prove htemselves wrong.

And he ripped off The Stand. Take a gander at Swan Song sometime. Storyline almost identical, came out before The Stand. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0671741039/qid=1132011110/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-9265846-7712827?v=glance&s=books&n=507846

you playgerigizer!!!!

A married woman seeking an abortion had to indicate that she notified her husband of her intention. Basically she had to tell the doctor that she informed her husband. That is the undue burden you are referring to. As I've said, I'm pro-choice, but I don't see that as an undue burden. The finding that "A significant number of women will likely be prevented from obtaining an abortion just as surely as if Pennsylvania had outlawed the procedure entirely." is flawed IMO. I don't see how asking a woman if she told her husband would be likely to prevent her from obtaining an abortion. IMO, the following is more on target. "The undue burden standard adopted by the joint opinion of JUSTICES O'CONNOR, KENNEDY, and SOUTER has no basis in constitutional law, and will not result in the sort of simple limitation, easily applied, which the opinion anticipates. To evaluate abortion regulations under that standard, judges will have to make the subjective, unguided determination whether the regulations place "substantial obstacles" in the path of a woman seeking an abortion, undoubtedly engendering a variety of conflicting views."

Hmm...didn't realize Reuters printed editorials. Should I direct you to your instructions on reading a byline? I know one thing. Bush diverted funding for those programs to the war in Iraq.

Is she still dating Jimmy Kimmel?

That's pretty funny.... Yo...check out the top left pic. I think it's a cropped shot of the set in Gia's thread.

Ratings... Success. BTW...poor choice of words there...splash indeed.

As I said above, he's right, it doesn't. Why? If the man has demonstrated the ability to rule based on the law, why do his personal opinions matter? I'm prochoice but I think democrats are reaching with this one. I haven't seen anything that indicates he has an ambition to overturn RvW.

...according to GWB. So why isn't enough being done about it? http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051114/pl_nm/security_usa_commission_dc half the nuclear materials in Russia still have no security upgrade. "This kind of grade -- unfulfilled, insufficient, minimal progress -- those grades are failing grades ... That is an unacceptable response," Commission member Timothy Roemer said. on a separate note.... Meanwhile, Vice President Dick Cheney has spearheaded an effort in Congress to have the CIA exempt from an amendment by Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain (news, bio, voting record) that would ban torture and inhumane treatment of prisoners. Bush threatened to veto the defense bill containing the amendment without the exemption. ---------------------------------------------- Nice to see our gov't efforts are not being directed toward stopping nuclear arms proliferation, but rather are toward the legalization of torture.

I was an evil clown for halloween. I won scariest costume at the party I went to. I picked it b/c it was the scariest thing I could think of.

Guys...relax. They have earthquakes like that ALL THE TIME in that region. It is a very rare and unusual set of circumstances that would result in a tsunami.

Last 60 days, name one non-US nations military to inflict collateral damage on innocent civilians.

How do you know they're not natural?

Is anyone really willing to dispute that?

She is mocking you, but only because she hates you.

buehler?

Damn you! Why do you keep giving credit to others for what I said first?

Wow...I think this is the first time I've ever agreed with you on anything. The worst thing the democrats could do is try to run with her.
