    Bush protesters get $50,000 state settlement

    Ah, such silliness. Teachers behave badly and irritable guards way over-react. The teacher’s claims regarding the reasons for the strip are nonsense and the guards turned off their brains, discipline, and judgement faciities.

    So the guard should probably be sentences to a dozen good face slaps from the teachers in question and the teachers should be banned from future events.

    Will Russia get away with it?

    PROTECTION FROM WHAT???????????????

    How can you think they are great?  A country that has a weaker economy, lower cultural level, higher criminal level, and lower lifestyles.  A country that supplies prostitution (with a high infectuous disease rate), drug and arms trafficking because of a corrupted regime and army, etc. 

    We are apart of a great regime that has more liberties than I care to extend.  A country that still favors INDEPENDENCE!!!!!!!!!   AND FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!! 

    As far as being over in Iraq. 

    We made our move to help stop the war on terror.  What has Russia done?    We have taken our own means to "HELP" rebuild a country that counld one day become great again. 

    What positive influence has Russia had on this world???????

    Bush to gut endangered species laws

    Yes, let’s trim the fat off budget. Or, at least, lets have no new spending and no rate increases beyond inflation. I can already hear people howling.

    No species will be harmed by climate change. every species on Earth has gone through far more drastic climate changes (warmer times and ice ages) than anything we’ll experience in our lifetimes or that of our great grandkids. The idea of catastrophic CC as put forth by the Goracle is total nonsense. By the way, the Polar Bears like less ice, their populations are increasing quite nicely, much to the chagrin of the people who have to live near them.

    Politicians like to buy votes, Dems especially, Obama in particular, but R’s too (which is one of the reasons they lost big in ‘06,) so there will be no spending decreases. I have little hope that McCain will do anything to do more than slow the rate of spending increases.

    While the Endangereed Species Act maybe doesn’t need to be gutted, it does need to have some hard science behind it and it needs to have some respect for property right and people’s rights.

    I dunno that Bush will hand out all that many pardons, he seems willing to let people take their "punishments." I expect there will be some, though.

    Communists are great !

    Don’t you think the fight is perfectly similar with the Korean War in 1951 between China and America ?!  Just a kind of self-protection. Much better than the invaders!

    The real guy who needs to stay where they belong is the one who should  GET AWAY FROM IRAQ  right now !!!

    This is a small counter balance to the way Clinton locked up coal resources at the end of his term.  And something tells me that Bush will have plenty, but fewer pardons to hand out than Clinton.

    It’s about time we start trimming the fat off of the budget – 1300 consulations per year!!!  Let’s make room for 5 and go from there.

    Umm . . . species that might be harmed by climate change?  How about humans?  There’s an important one.  How ‘bout we focus on ourselves and then start worrying about the polar bears.

    The Endangered Species Act laws have needed review for quite some time. They’ve done a few good things and have been used as an unjustified club in many ways. Of course, this applies to pretty much ANY set of US Gov laws. I don’t consider them to be good laws just because there’s a nice idea behind them.

    As far as review, let’s get a real debate going on this thing, with sceintists from both sides getting equal air time, not just envoros.

    I’d be happy to send Bush on vacation if we couild get a decent candidate to replace him. Impeach him? For what? It makes for good Dem press, but let’s get real here. The last clown needed impeachment, though it didn’t amount to anything.

    Unfortunately, as a replacement McCain looks to be merely adequate and Comrade Obama, with his plans to abandon Iraq to the fires of chaos and destroy our economy looks to be far far worse. As it stands I’d vote for Bush again over either of those two.

    Too bad Someone like Allen B. West, runing for Florida’s 22nd, isn’t runing for Pres. He sounded pretty good in the interview I heard the other day.
