Scalia repeated his earlier statement that people should "get over" the court's ruling in 2000 that halted Florida's vote recount, giving the presidential election to Republican Bush over Democrat Al Gore.

Excuse me, but didn't it halt like the THIRD recount?

Taliban bitten by a snake in the grass

The spectacular blowing up on March 20 of 40 gas tankers at Torkham - the border crossing in Khyber Agency into Afghanistan's Nangarhar province - sent shock waves through the North Atlantic Treaty Organization-led (NATO) coalition. So much so that it made a deal for some supplies to transit through Russia, a much more arduous route.

The Torkham success was followed by a number of smaller attacks, and the Taliban's plan appeared to be going better than they could have expected.

Then came this week's incident in which the Taliban seized two members of the World Food Program (WFP) in Khyber Agency, and it became obvious the Taliban had been betrayed, and all for the princely sum of about US$150,000.

Their Khyber dreams are now in tatters.

The US went to war against Iraq because Iraq flagrantly and continuously defied the terms of the cease-fire agreement of Gulf War 1 in 1991.

We enforced the agreement.

re: #10 Ben Hur

The comments over at the Politico were completely unhinged. Scalia was quoted as saying Algore initiated the court action (which is true, in the Florida courts). Some nut was hyperventilating that eeeevil Buuuuush had actually gone to the courts first. Actually, he just asked the Supreme Court to review it, basically moving it from the state court to the federal court. Also, as Scalia pointed out, it was a 7-2 decision. Not exactly controversial, except in the fever swamps.

NEW YORK - Three detectives were acquitted Friday in the 50-shot killing of an unarmed groom-to-be on his wedding day, a case that put the NYPD at the center of another dispute involving allegations of excessive firepower.

Scores of police officers surrounded the courthouse to guard against potential chaos, and as news of the verdict spread, many in the crowd began weeping. Others were enraged, swearing and screaming "Murderers! Murderers!" or "KKK!"

My observation....

The Dems just stay constantly pissed! EVERTHING just torks them off. Except for when they are raising taxes, dissing the troops, or holding up needed legislation and exerting their majority powers, can anyone tell me what makes them happy?

Now they are all pissed because their primary election is all screwed up. Last year they wanted to play hard ball with Michigan and Florida and now they see that isn't gonna work out when millions of voters in FL and MI are left out of the convention and their votes don't count and it all might backfire on them. They have a candidate that they are beginning to realize can't win the general election. A typlical Dem goat roaping!

I'm a Floridian and I'll be damned if I will vote for another Democrat again. I'm tired of them manipulating the Florida vote. Recounts, Gore was robbed etc. Just sick of them.

Olmert is offering 1/2 Jerusalem, the Golan, has already given away all of Gaza, has allowed the PLO armored vehicles, has trained their police force, has turned over numerous cities in Judea/Samaria to PLO control, and is offering to practically go back to the 1967 armistice line (with Jordan) in Judea / Samaria (West Bank)....yet they still complain that "Negotiations must fulfill Palestinian hopes." (alluding that we don't have peace because they don't).

So...this begs the question...if a state on the 1967 armistice lines in Judea/Samaria, and Gaza, and full autonomy does not "fulfill the hopes" of the Phakestinians.....what exactly are they expecting to achieve?

We've been at war since 1991. The Clinton administration made regime change in Iraq a national policy. Every intelligence agency, foreign and domestic, said that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. After 9/11, we could no longer afford to wait for Saddam Hussein to comply with UN resolutions.

Plus....they have oil.

We invaded Iraq because we needed an excuse to blow up the World Trade Center.
/duh

The Criminal Bush did it. No wait, he had Cheny do it. No wait, Cheny did the levees in New Orleans. Maybe he did both.
Or maybe it was all due to Global Warming & it would still be the Criminal Bush's fault.

I wonder if they have any idea that it's their ideology that's bringing it down or are they going to remain blind and blame the internet.

Yeah. I guess that's why the biggest sites on the Internet are all conservative blogs... or... wait...

Do you know where he's headed yet? You don't have to say it - just wanted to know if he has his orders yet.

He's going to be a dirty tanker! a Tread-Head! I was a 19D Cavalry Scout and my Son ends up a tanker....the shame!

If it was due to Global warming, then its clearly Algore's fault. He started it.

If they had content someone wanted to read, they'd be able to attract advertising dollars to keep going online or otherwise.....

No content, No NYT......or so I can hope

Indeed. If only anyone would visit the Times' site...

Oh, they have content, it's just that Al Queda's demographics doen't have the commercial affluence they used unless Madrasahs and Halal companies start advertising.
