Don't compare me to that fucking cow, OK? Those are fighting words. If you have a valid argument of your own though, I'd love to hear it. BTW, as I stated before, the Sec Def. agrees with me. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

You didn't answer the question. In my opinion, politics is the reason. Bush is putting politics before security and justice. The only other possible explanation is that it is thought that David Hicks poses little to no threat, which makes one wonder - what was he held in the first place? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

The distinction is not moot for a society facing the jeopardy of releasing captured international illegal combatants while the conflict is ongoing and compelled unwillingly to make the tough choices that objectors carp about from sugar plum fairy land. Then why are we releasing them? If David Hicks is a danger, why is he being released? If others in Gitmo have cases similar to his, can we expect a bunch of releases soon? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Anyone else following this story? After simply agreeing to a one year gag order and signing an affidavit that he had not been "illegally treated", Austrailian David Hicks will serve only 9 months for pleading guilty to supporting terrorists. This raises so many questions: -If he is the 'worst of the worst' how many people in Gitmo should probably not be there? -Who WOULDN'T sign that stupid affidavit? It seems it was either sign it or remain in jail forever with no appeal. Seems coercive to me. -Why a gag order? What is the government afraid he will say? -If this guy is guilty of supporting terrorists, why is his sentence so short? Burglars get stiffer sentences. Every day, the tribunals at Gitmo and the facility itself are exposed as more of a sham. Why is nobody listeding to the Defense Secretary who wants it shut down? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Or even better - actually be in control of your life. One great way to meet a woman is to get really used to doing your own thing and making your own rules. Women hate that, and one will come along and feel the overwhelming need to screw that up for you. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Health Care System - which design would you choose?

Why bother with the study? You seem to have it all figured out. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down. -

Got a link for that? I'd like to see their criteria. Yes - WHO’s assessment system was based on five indicators: overall level of population health; health inequalities (or disparities) within the population; overall level of health system responsiveness (a combination of patient satisfaction and how well the system acts); distribution of responsiveness within the population (how well people of varying economic status find that they are served by the health system); and the distribution of the health system’s financial burden within the population (who pays the costs). http://www.who.int/inf-pr-2000/en/pr2000-44.html -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down. -
All men are assholes. All you have to do is figure out which asshole you want to spend your time with. Bingo! I was a nice guy for many, many years, and always ended up in the "friend zone." When I became a bit of an uncaring dick things went much more smoothly. And I'm still a dick - just ask my wife. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

It is? There are lots of Christians in Iran - are they all in jail? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

If science one day provides proof for the existence of God, will this question be moot? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

He wrote all of that just to have a chance to take a jab at Clinton. Amazing. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

This is possible. The question is, do you want to pay 60% of your income to government? If you count what I pay yearly for health care coverage + taxes, it is close to that now anyway. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down. -

That is one country I will never care to be compared to. You can have the attitude, taxes and all the other bs they have right along with the WHO rated health care systme You forgot about the hot chicks, superb wine, long holidays on the Riviera, and climbing in Chamonix and the Verdon gorge. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down. -
What a British hostage says to make sure that his head isn't removed from his body by his captors is not relevant. We'll just wait and see what they sailors say back on British soil. You're doing pretty good with that yourself. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

They haven't left that spot for 2 years. You can also spot mountain bikes, a wet suit, climbing gear, a boat motor, etc, etc..... -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

France, with universal health care, (socialism) is ranked #1 health care system by the World Health Organization. The USA, who spends more then anyone, is #37. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down. -
Yes, it's a bit small for me, but so far I'm having a blast on this- '91 CR80 Frame and 2002 motor. I'll probably move up to a 125 later in the summer..... -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

If a law was passed by Congress and signed by the President that required the Environmental Protection Agency to direct the disposal of all lead wastes into Lake Superior, the that's what the EPA would do. Sounds like a genius way to run a country. I thought the issue was the EPA choosing NOT to enforce the law? If congress passes a law and then the Prez puts his cronies in charge and they tell the agency not to ennforce certain laws, the system breaks down. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

There are more hits - try a less specific search string. The news will pick this up if it has legs. Right now there are bigger fish to fry. US Government State TV isn't even covering this yet, so your argument is a bit weak. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Holy shit, you mean the Environmental Protection Agency is supposed to protect the environment?! Thank God for the courts for figuring out this complex legal issue. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

I did? Where? Go read some of my previous posts(other threads) and you will see that I am no hypocrite on this issue. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
