nd I fear he will be tested in a direct confrontation with Al Qaeda before the end of 2009.
 
And how did Bush confront Al Queda? By going to Baghdad and spending over a trillion dollars in a country where Saddam Hussein was very effective in torturing and killing Iraqi Al Queda members. That IMO is a very indirect way of confronting Al Queda.
 
Obama/Biden wants to directly confront Al Queda in Afghanistan and Pakistan with more troops. That IMO is a far more direct way of confronting Al Queda especially since that is exactly where most of Al Queda is hiding.

When life is great and everything seems fine, and suddenly you are told that you could die, your priorities do shift.
 
Life is uncertain; fortunately, it is also hard to be defeated . Health is a more fragile status quo, however. And hospitals are a danger in themselves, even for healthy people. Tiring, depressing, boring.
 
I'm glad you are fine.
 
Regards,
Jose

Agreed, but the crying and scare tactics have just started. The 3 CEO's are probably DEMANDING a bailout because the emotion bar has just been raised after Octobers disastrous sales.
 
Now all of a sudden the media is saying bailout first and make them competitive second.
 
Wow!

I feel your pain. I was in Santa Fe a few weeks ago and couldn't wait to get back to the Florida warmth. However, the food and coffee were terrific. They take both seriously over there.

Once upon a time there was born a man who could bring peace and stability to Iraq.
 
His name was Saddam Hussein.
 
A true story.

The story continues...
 
Then one day he was dreaming that he can be the second coming of Hitler so he started killing the Kurds and ultimately invaded Kuwait.
 
A true story too...

Yes, but there are a lot of despots in the world committing atrocities-think parts of Africa, North Korea, China, etc; Does that mean we should attack all of them?
 
Like the USA cared so much about the Kurds?
 
Cheney and Bush cared about one thing and one thing only: OIL.
 
Sounds like a criminal case to me, but that would require guts. I'm not holding my breath.

In this particular case the Germanium Man and the Titanium Man are no longer in disagreement.
 
Millions and millions have gotten killed in Congo by war criminals . There is massive genoicide going on in Sudan. Many African countries do have serial killing leaders who have been in power for years. Would Pres. George W spend over a trillion of dollars to militarily solve just one of these African problems. I dont think so.
 
When did Saddam Hussein kill and gas most of his Kurd victims? During the early 1980s when Saddam shook hands with his ally Mr.Rumsfeld himself.
 
I promise everyone this is my very last political post because this discussion can get even hotter than those Lexus vs. BMW discussions.

Creative destruction and creative innovation is the source of prosperity and not government handouts to firms that cant compete.
 
Very well put! I couldn't agree more.
