  1. I would suggest you take some time to read and investigate before you make these types of statements. http://www.who.int/child-adolescent-health/NUTRITION/complementary.htm The world health orgnization does NOT use 'being able to ask for the tit' as criteria for weaning. Really, thats laughable You mean this: How is that contrary to the claim of children over three shouldn't breast feed? I would suggest you take some time to read and investigate before you make these types of statements.
  2. Great thread, folks. Love the PC browbeating of anyone who spoke against breast-feeding in public. Seems like it's a matter of tolerance and discretion. In other words, don't stare.... it's none of your business.... and if it's feeding time in a public place, mothers should do their your best to be discreet. And as far as I'm concerned, there is no reason for any child over two (or three, tops) to be feeding on the boobie.
  3. So you'll conclude that the Chicago Tribune (which also owns superstation WGN), having twice endorsed G.W. Bush in its editorials, has a proven right wing slant. I was being sarcastic.
  4. Which "Libby Leak" investigation are you talking about? The Plame/Wilson drama? I may be wrong, but I'd guess Nightline aired more than three stories. Who was convicted? BTW About you're previous post on Time covers - an example of non-bias doesn't prove the absence of a bias. Can you imagine someone claiming a politician is honest and using a single example to prove it???
  5. Nor does he represent the vast majority of all other soldiers. From what you wrote, it's easy to infer you think he and soldiers like him are something more than the rare exception.
  6. Gasoline isn't. You mean there's not a one to one correlation between international crude prices and domestic gasoline prices? Who knew?
  7. Crude is the lowest it's been in 17 months, back to its October '04 levels. More Exxon et al manipulation???
  8. BTW, it was posted 30 mins prior to me posting mine, it wasn't as if it was around for days...geez Those new threads, up at the top of the page, are so easy to miss.
  9. I can hardly wait until this gets played up as a Patriot Act issue.
  10. Does anyone know what the charges are? The only mention I could find of Patriot Act or terrorism came from non-US sources. None of the US media sources I checked mentioned those hot button topics. Keith Olberman(sp?) didn't mention it. Long before the passage of The Patriot Act, it was a federal offense to threaten, harass or intimidate a flight attendant. From what I've read, the charged couple scored a trifecta. It doesn't matter how shitty a flight attendant acts, you can't pull the kind of nonsense those two pulled on an airliner. It's about reading comprehension, folks. Get it right before sounding off..... in the wrong direction. Speaking of reading comprehension the flight attendant is a man.
  11. I read the indictment yesterday and if he did half of what they are accusing him of he's toast. http://news.findlaw.com/cnn/docs/crim/uspersing101106ind.html That's all just cover. Anyone with their eyes open can see this clearly another example of the tyranical, oppressive, fascist Bush regime taking away our civil rights.
  12. The underlying message here is the Dems announced they have an interest in pursuing a moderate agenda.
  13. Yeah. I missed where it said they were charged with terrorism.
  14. I look forward to the ads attacking obesity. The liposuction ones should be a hoot.
  15. It seems like it was just yesterday that non-smoker sections were being designated in theaters, airlines and restaurants. What was that Virginia Slims slogan???
  16. I read the transcript. It's pretty compelling. It does a fine job of showing Iran's president talking out of both sides of his mouth. Other segments looked at the indoctrination of hate being spoonfed to children. The last segment addresses the numerous examples of moderate Muslims criticizing the extremist factions. My take on it is Islamofascism is much more prevalent than I previously thought and it's generally looked down on by a large portion of Muslims worldwide.
  17. THAT'S NOT HIS POINT!!! AND YOU KNOW IT! Quit trying to change the subject.
  18. WE'RE FROM THE GOVERNMENT AND WE'RE HERE TO HELP YOU
  19. Here is the transcript: http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0611/15/gb.01.html
