that is why you didn't pledge, before god, to give up all that you own IF saddam supports an attack on the us

nor have you pledged to do the same if we go marching into Baghdad, guns ablazing, and discover he doesn't have a nuke...

isn't that, too, telling?

i really don't get this. saddam is a nasty, nasty man, but there remains no tangible evidence he poses a threat to us. so why waste our political and military resources going after him when we can go after a country in the same part of the world that has demonstrated a capacity AND willingness to hurt us very, very badly.

namely, saudi arabia.

that would make much more sense to me...

Skeeter Bug,

Re: poising the water supply in la doesn't hold a candle

Do you actually have a clue how difficult it would be to adulterate a major metropolitan water supply? Have you taken the time to comprehend the nearly incomprehensible volume of water moving through such a system? Or how many tanker trucks of poison it would take to create a dosage of any significance? I doubt it. Please take the time to educate yourself. You'll end up a lot less frightened of your own shadow and by the propaganda that the Bushistas endless spew to poison your mind. Now there is one poison flow that most assuredly is having its effect on the weak minded.

That's great news. Now stop listening to his lies. :)

that is very telling, imho.


You are coming dangerously close to coming across as a crackpot with this silly "affirmation" nonsense. I won't take the pledge, and I don't drink the Kool-Aid. First of all, the preponderance of evidence indicates that the belief in "sky-gods" among the three major mono-theistic religions is the greatest example of mass delusion on the planet. Secondly, the very illogic of this pledge is risible.

A friend of mine sent me this recently:

If the Jews, Christians and Muslims would all just give up on their religious hatreds being allowed to mask greedy moves and territorial aggressions, the world would be a much happier place.

Salaam aleikum, Shalom, Peace NOW! Ray
