Eighty-five percent (85%) of Republicans have a favorable view of Powell, as do 81% of unaffiliated voters and 77% of Democrats.

That should be 'had', not 'have'. As soon as he started his ridiculous behaviors of late, ?CP? was put on the black list, and ignored by most of ?those that matter?. You know; the ones that celebrate being an American by having jobs, working hard, and maintaining good hygiene; and fighting in wars when we have too.

This is a joke post, right?

Of course not.

I'm just trying to help you out dog, these jokers is outta pocket...
Damn, you had the chance to squirm away, and you blew it.

I don't think he can help it, clear OCD.

If you're not too busy stomping on fetuses or kissing terrorists, you should really spend some time getting to know the facts about you're beloved 'chosen one'.

You need to do three things right now in any order:

1.) Learn the difference between "your" and "you're".
2.) Learn that if you're going to websites like 'obamacrimes.com', you might not be getting the most objective information available.
3.) Recognize that your (see?) ranting about stomping fetuses and kissing terrorists makes you impossible to take seriously.

What is it that you don't recognize about 'only the facts'? This isn't a tread on grammar is it?

That what is being presented to you as 'factual' on those sites is far from it. All you're doing is making yourself look bad by using them. If these sites are reporting facts, then surely you can get the same information from a reputable source.

All you've done here so far is come in spewing ridiculous right wing attacks on absurd liberal stereotypes. It's not constructive, and if you hoped to get anyone to listen to you, you're turning them off by acting this way.

"Al-Qaeda will have to support McCain in the coming election," said a commentary posted Monday on the extremist Web site al-Hesbah, which is closely linked to the terrorist group. It said the Arizona Republican would continue the "failing march of his predecessor," President Bush.
Don't they know that mccain wants to drill in alaska? That's supposed to make us no longer dependent on middle east oil. Or, maybe not.

Now i don't have much choice but when i am at home i've made it a point for 20 years NOT to buy oil from any company that buys from the ME, i use Hydro, Norwegian from the crude to the petrol.

Fucking small contribution, i know, but i at least i'm no fucking hypocrite.

In the u.s., I can't imagine how to ensure this with supplies being mixed, multiple companies sharing pipelines, independents with various suppliers...

We just go for whatever is cheapest here. Even walmart and kroger (big grocer) sell gas now.

Not to mention that kind of boycott actually doesn't make a difference. Not because of the size of the boycott, but even if you were an entire nation that chose to just start going off of Norwegian oil it would drive more business to the Middle East, therefore nullifying your boycott.

No probleme, if you got no choice, you got no choice, i'm not putting you men down, i'm using my ability to do that and i'd feel fucked up if i didn't when i HAVE this opportunity to buy it from Norway, it was absolutely not meant as a slam against anyone else.

Not really, heat exchangers are extremely pouplar, so is nuclear. wind and water we EXPORT natural energy.

Now your infrastructure looks more like a bad case of herpes.

From what I understand of what you said, you only buy petrol if it is not made from products of the Middle East. I don't really understand the reply, but what I'm saying is you're still purchasing oil which increases the demand for oil and makes money go to the Middle East regardless if you are actually the one handing over the cash.

I know it's easy to get hyper-sensitive around here, but a slam never entered my mind.

I was actually impressed that a person would attempt this.
