    The Truth about Pit Bulls and Lipstick | The Agonist

    Are you a hockey mom? My son played hockey from the time he was 6 through highschool. Hockey moms are a tough bunch and they can be like pitbulls protecting their young at times. It is an analogy for the tenacity and toughness hockey moms must have in the world of youth hockey where it can be tough at times. I am just amazed at how people are trying to spin every little thing in some negative light—- get a grip!

    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???????

    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 !!!
