And in an oh so typical revisionist history response, you got this, "Innocent Iraqis started to die only after the US troops entered Iraq, is how I would put it." Is he really that dumb? Or do they really buy into their revisionist history the instant they invent it? Either way, it's pretty scary. These people walk the streets & look like normal people. Yikes!

"Heteronormative" Ace of Spades What does it mean? Well, it starts off "hetero," so you know it can't be good. Seems to mean "encouraging and validating heterosexual norms and lifestyle choices." So, you know-- big bad. Apparently Jada Pinkett Smith is being accused of "heteronormative" speech, and that's got the Harvard GLBT community all up in a lather. You really gotta read what the woman actually said. Basically, just a you-go-girl bit of fluff, but she made the big mistake of suggesting that women could have, should they desire such, husbands and babies as well as a career. And you know-- that's practically hate speech now. Kaus snarks off this idiotic contretemps with as much sarcasm as is necessary, without putting too much work into dispensing of such nonsense. slate.msn.com

Wow, the stuff over there is amazing and unbelievable. Message 21098163 If you can tell me that innocent Iraqis were dying before the US troops showed up then I would toe your line. Makes you wonder what Chinu thinks was found at all of those mass grave sites. It does remind me of an old saying; It's better to remain silent and thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
