I think what you meant to say is...Is this a complete sentence? Is this grammatically correct? Your post would have made more sense but perhaps would not be as funny... shmekle… (not English) See the difference?

I asked if it were English because there were certain words in your sentence that doesnt exist in the English language (Oxford or Webster definitions). It was so badly written that it could be anything. Deal first with your spelling then we'll deal with the nightmare that is your grammar.

Zap, you left yourself open on this one. I can't believe that nobody has jumped on it yet.

Zapper di do da, that little tete a tete with Lim was all it was. Just what are the rules before one gets bleached. As I've mentioned before, I got done for calling someone a shit and something else not overly bad. I think we find that a lot of the Merkins are over sensitive, ill informed, and led by the media nose. Now it seems to me that the rednecks, and southerners are more opinionated and will stand their ground. On another site that we use, that is mainly used by UK and Irish we find a more tolerant attitude, and you are never permanently dumped. Perhaps 3-4 hours, but we all get back on because the commentators and the moderator let a lot of things go. You'd love it. And as for the anti-semitic bit, I think that the Americans have got the wrong end of the stick altogether. For example, if you criticise Israel, you are deemed to be anti-semitic, and that is not the case. You never got that reaction from Fixit in Switzerland, and you don't get it from ItsikH in Israel, and I never got it from Saar (aka 777).

Political satire is very powerful (see Garry Trudeau, I'm sure you've heard of him) & you are aware, no doubt, that one rule about joke telling is that all jokes must have a "kernal of truth" in them for them to be effective. Without truth, there is no humor. Political cartoons are very relavent & make people think. People remember things that make them laugh, however tragic. Like Rumsfeld's pronouncement that body armor is'nt the "be all end all" because one can be killed in a tank or humvee. He was basically saying that you're going to die anyway, in this "war of choice", so stop you're bickering
What was it, 43 dead yesterday

In fact, he resembles most of those watermelons that Gallagher has smashed.

Cut the cursing young man...

Sir, I will stop the cursing if you stop the gramar s*it. I disagree with you very much so on carlin's I.Q. He has grown so much as a comedian since he started out, [when he was on the mind latering drugs]. He is very smart, and very clever. Did I mention funny? Oh I guess he is a stupid f#$king pea brain right? Right on up there with Michel Moore

Thanks for the prompt. As i said before, I could stand outside a convienience store & pick someone, at random, & the odd's would be that they would be able to answer various questions on the spot (basically be smarter) than our current president. I have no doubt about this. Bush has few if any accomplishments. Let's see-1) he has gotten us into a war of choice w/ a country who was not an imminent threat-as his sec.state had contended who to save what little dignity he has left resigned his tenure & relegated to the dustbin of history any chance he has, in the future of running for the presidency, 2)he has exempted companies from complying w/ the clean air act, 3) someone in his admin. "outed" a cia officer (treason?) as a punishment for a diplomat who didn't parrot the admin.s view & exposed the "yellowcake fiasco" for what it was. 4) He has taken more time away from Washington of any pres. in history at exactly the time when a pres.'s presence is needed the most. 4) Record deficits & job losses... I would go on but i'm growing weary from typing. After all of that,
So the answer is Yes !!!, George Carlin would make an astoundingly better President than Dubya.

Well, in military terms the U.S. hasn't lost huge numbers of troops, although the number of wounded is far higher. The problem is the task is an impossible and vague one: Make Iraq a democratic country. How can the military possibly complete such a mission by force?

They believed that America was in "Front and Kicking arse Big Time" with no "Loss of Life Regarding Their Troops". I was accused of lieing to them to further my point about G.W. being a crook. They even changed their ISP to cut out the mail, well, that's what they said they were going to do?

There's none so blind, as them's who do not want to see?

"Big It Up For the Boys On The Front Line, they need our support, poor bastards?

Have any of you seen the report that a lot of those troops who are actually returning home, have very deep phycological trauma, it's no wonder, WAR is a crazy, bloody, insane, business, anybody for a job in IRAQ, no qualifications required, just be prepared to die?

Insanity has it's price....Please have correct change? TBC

Your right, it can not happen ad thousands of inocent people are dying. Dubya is just trying to convince very one that we are "liberating" iraq. Pardon me but that is a big crock of bullshit. Just a distraction from the real reason we are in iraq. Wealthy people who start wars, for no reall reason but politics and money, well.......that is the worst thing any one can do. over 100,000 inocent iraqies dead, I beleve it's over 20,000 troops dead, and more than that wounded. And for what? for what? he calls him self a christian He should send his daughters over there to fight. Just remember "theres alot of good people workin hard" and dont forget poland!

god bless michel moore, and you to george [dont take it the wrong way]
