Considering the price of diesel fuel, is this so bright? FEMA Sends Trucks Full Of Ice For Katrina Victims To Maine created: 9/19/2005 8:31:47 PM updated: 9/20/2005 10:46:21 AM The trucks started arriving this weekend, and they're expected to keep coming through Sunday. City officials say they have no idea why the trucks are here, only that the city has been asked to help out with traffic problems. But the truck drivers NEWSCENTER spoke to said they went all the way down to the gulf coast with the ice -- stayed for a few days -- and then were told by FEMA they needed to drive to Maine to store it. The truck drivers, who are from all over the country, tell us they were subcontracted by FEMA. They started arriving over the weekend, and city spokesperson Peter Dewitt says as many as 200 trucks could come to the city by the end of the week. The trucks are storing the ice at Americold, a company with a warehouse on Read Street in Portland. People who live nearby say all the traffic has been baffling them for days. The trucks can only unload 4 at a time -- so the city is allowing some of them to sit at the International Marine Terminal and at the Jetport's satellite parking lot. No one NEWSCENTER talked to has any idea when, or even if the ice will go back to the gulf coast. WCSH/WLBZ

I don't think you understand the problem. Or you do and just choose to ignore it because of your hatred of whatever. They had been taken by the militia, which doesn't conduct trials - just beheadings. They rescued the soldiers in order to ensure that they could get a fair hearing to find out what happened. __________________________________________________ That's the story you read. Not necessarily the Truth. __________________________________________________ And there is already a thread for this stuff underway, so why did you have to go and start another one? __________________________________________________ Believe it or not ,John, I don't read every thread on DZ.com beforwe I post. By the title of the other thread alone ,how would I know it had anything to do with this subject? Blues, Cliff

[I would think you would give these professional soldiers a little more benefit of the doubt than this. __________________________________________________ "Profesional soldiers" dress in uniform. These are clearly illegal combatants and do not deserve any of the protections of the Geneva Convention. Certainly they can't be considered as "coalition troops" and there fore the police were not required to turn them over to the coalition. Goes both ways. Blues, Cliff

What? And take all the fun out of bashing Bush's war? Facts:The incident began when the two undercover soldiers, dressed in Arab garments, fired on an Iraqi police patrol. Violence broke out and at least two Iraqis are reported to have been killed. (They must have had some good reason, but "why" is not stated yet.) __________________________________________________ You left out the part about the SAS driving a car packed full of explosives and attempting to dodge the police checkpoint. Who is setting off all those car bombs in Iraq? Blues, Cliff

So knowing that they were caught *red-handed* wouldn't it have been smarter for the British forces to just let those two undercover agents suffer the consequences of an Iraqi trial? I mean .., really,.. seems the jailbreak by tank kinda blows the cover (-up) off the ongoing operation. Blues, Cliff

And stating something like that will get you serious time in Federal-pounded-in-the-ass prison. __________________________________________________ This is where us Black Folks have an advantage over the Whites! See.., we don't fear prison like y'all do . To us it's sort a like a vacation. A family reunion and a break from the *mans' world* if you will. In prison we hold the majority and we rule the world !!! Yes that's very true. And the government knows that's how it is. They use us to scare you into conforming to their laws. Want to be fucked in the ass by a big black dick? If not you best not be breakin' the law ,boy. Blues, Cliff

Should we cease sending military aid to Israel, and let the Arabs exterminate all the Jews? __________________________________________________ Allah b be willing ! Blues, Cliff

Any reputable firearms training course (Thunder Ranch, Gunsite, etc) will tell you that you shoot to STOP - to get the person to STOP what they're doing that has put you in fear of your life. __________________________________________________ Anybody with any sense knows that you never point a firearm at anone you don't intend to kill .

The point of a two party system is that when the two parties stop effectively representing the needs of the people, a third party is supposed to spring up and fill in. But we are all no more than pupets of the media. __________________________________________________ Realize that there is no "two party system". There is only the wealthy running things. Corporate wealth control every election on the national level. People talk about they voted for the lesser of evil. They forget that the two evils were both presented by Americas corporate wealth and bothe of the evils couldn't lose. No common man could win either. How can we beat this system and take back the government ? Can it be done short of an armed Revolution? Blues, Cliff

Wow. What luck! I usually have to pay $39.95 for the benefit of such wisdom. But, wait...are you willing to throw in a free Ginsu knife? __________________________________________________ I'm a Constitutionalistand a Spiritualist ,not a game show host or a car dealer,Dammit! Blues, Cliff

_________________________________________________ Self-healing does take longer for some than for others. Don't worry my freind,as soon as you set aside your ego you will be on the path. As I stated previously, they used their nearly unlimited resources to corrupt you psychologicaly. Surely you don't believe that wars which leave so many from both sides physically crippled and psychologically deranged to be the best alternative when Men disagree. Surely you realize that these particular wars,Afganistan and Iraq ,were sold to the people on a hoax and a lie respectively. I'm not the hoaxter nor the liar. Neither are you. But we all know where the hoax and the lies originated. Still behind the Liar in Chief? Blues, Cliff

Shit ...uhhhh Cliff, yeah thats right Cliff. I'm still trying to lengthen my penis with some of that joy juice they send me emails about. You want me to lengthen my radius of knowledge at the same time? __________________________________________________ Generally I don't give out sex advice but just this one time.., Listen, what good is a longer schlong if you don't know how to use it?

I believe CM is crazy based on a personal definition. I haven't told you what that is, so you can't know the basis of my personal judgement. Could you quote to me where I stated that Pres Bush is sane or not? You seem to be making unfounded statements at every turn. These avoid misquotes and fantasies. You might want to reconsider your judgement. __________________________________________________ It is obvious that you have reached a pivital point. My post has effected you in a most obvious manner. You now realize that the president who you have been supporting has some very serious flaws. You also realise the wars against Afghanistan and Iraq are unjust and that the blame for the many casualties are partly on your shoulders due to your support. Take it easy ,Happythoughts, it isn't really your fault. You were duped by conspirators who have nearly unlimited resources. There is no shame in that. The shame is in continuing to support them after you know. Blues, Cliff

A. YOU are the one making the claim. It's YOUR burden to provide the evidence. That's how the game is played. -Always-. __________________________________________________ I'm not trying to convince you of anything and I'm not playing a game.. I'm merely attempting to lead you on a path to your own enlightenment. I'm attempting to help yourself in expanding your radius of knowledge. Your hostility and mistrust are tangible in your reply. May Allah grant you Peace Brother. Blues, Cliff

Charles Manson is crazy, isn't he ? __________________________________________________ Why do you think so? Your government doesn't believe Charley is crazy. If they did , surely the compasionate conservatives would house him in a mental institution instead of a prison. But Charley is in a prison. And you think he's crazy but Bush is sane. Charley may be responsible for a few deaths but he was never convicted of even 1 murder. Bush has admited "responsibility" for the deaths of hundreds at the gulf coast and we know he is "responsible for thousands and thousands in Iraq. Do you believe George is sane? Why isn't he in prison? . Might want to reconsider your judgement. Blues, Cliff

Before you jump to any conclusions, remember that you are reading a translation of a translation of a translation. Mahmoud Abas does not speak English. Bush does not speak Arabic. If Bush said these words, or something like them, Abas heard them from a translator. Then Abas repeated them, as he remembered them a couple of weeks later, in Arabic. Some unknown person wrote down what he thought he heard Abas say. Then Regular, or someone at Ha'aretz, translated them back into English-or perhaps first into Hebrew and then into English. __________________________________________________ Shoot Jimbo, You make it sound as if it deserves as much credibility as the Bible!

__________________________________________________ What makes you believe that? Blues, Cliff

I'm just not so sure you have the knowledge, experience or maturity to offer psychological counseling based on what I have seen you post here. __________________________________________________ Fantastic. Now , Do you believe that God talks to the President? Or do you believe that George was lying when he stated that " 'God told me to strike at al Qaida and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did, and now I am determined to solve the problem in the Middle East. " or do you believe George is a nut job? Blues, Cliff

Sometimes, it's not the answers, it's the questions. __________________________________________________ So do you believe that "GOD" told Bush to invade Iraq? Blues, Cliff No, __________________________________________________ So you know he is a liar or a nutcase. Great. Still support him? Blues, Cliff

I have no reason to believe he has claimed this. Do you have a link where he's quoted? __________________________________________________ Yes. Do you need to be spoon fed? I mean hell, he's your president making war in your name! You should be ashamed of yourself !!! Blues, Cliff

Farrakan is an idiot. __________________________________________________ OK ,GTAVercetti, If you say so! Because you are so much *smarter* ,ey? Thing is that people only realize and believe what is in their own radius of knowledge. Anything outside of that circle ,to them, is impossible.It is not to be believed! It is ludicrous! I suggest you may want to increase your radius of knowledge, GTAVercetti. Just a thought. Blues, Cliff
