Whew...... I don't intend to quote your entire Post over and over.You were directed to the correct Post. . . . . . . As to your indecorous use of sexual innuendo to attempt some form of debasement? Oh my, back to 25 cent words are we? I never have seen so many insecure minds at play as on this board.... This is not your Playground! How old are you again? Old enough to see through your Bullshit!

Post: You're right, and a school yard bully with a AK47 (or a triggerhappy government with gazillions of weapons) is not strictly someone elses business. But in some aspects they have it right. Not with the content, there's the truth with you, not with the Bushies, but with the form. A good example is your self-quoting some messages ago. Why did you do it? Does it help your message anyhow? Or isn't it just feed for the PZ-bashers?[/quote] The wheels on the Bus go round and round, round and round, round and round, the Wheels on the bus go round and Thump, Thump, Thump. Sanger Congratulations...and expert are we. You will find that I very, very rarely use a link to an article. In the case you are speaking of, the only way that Paul could see that every media outlet did not belive as he was to Post the Article. Which he dignified with his rhetoric. And You Amplify. he disounted the Author of the Article....but he did use his own words. Just not Zippy's cup of tea. In order to rescue Paul from the bilges that he has placed himself in, you will have to offer him Sanctuary and direction as stated earlier. I guess from where you stand, you are climbing to reach the same platuea where Zippy's throne sits. the problem is "us little people get Nose Bleeds at high Altitudes. You know everything too...can you run this country better...can you inform everyone with what is wrong with the US? Do you tell everyone in Germany how to correct their problems without the means of effecting change. I am not complacent about anything..I served my country proudly. Can Paul say the same? |

Post: *But he doesn't support the illegal war your government has started (or the Orwellian tactics by the American far-right at all). Is that your problem now? Mr. Grüße vom Sänger, I have found many of your posts to be very informative and helpful to many people in the past. I also am not surprised at your alignment with Paul Zimmerman. You seem to be very well versed, and very capable of using your own words in Post that you make. I have found very little repetition in your posts. I do however find it in Paul Zimmerman's Post. Where were you when Paul was running for Political Office In Alaska... "Out of the Country I suppose".Since you have chosen to jump on the Zimmerman's bandwagon, maybe you could direct him to the proper places where he could earn the necessary votes to actually effect change to the Masses. Since the "media" is so wishy-washy in the way they report, I am sure you could teach Zimmerman the correct tactics, in the correct forums, to spread his rhetoric. Sanger..a DEAD HORSE is a DEAD Horse. How many times a day, do you have to be reminded of your countries "Shortcomings", or "believed shortcomings" . Not that often I assume. Are you an Activist in your country? Or do you hold or aspire to hold a Political Office in your Country? If you do, then Paul could definitely use your help. It is very easy for those outside our country to knock what goes on in our country. Most of us do not agree with every aspect and every undertaking that our president and Administration take on. But that's what makes this a Great Country. We have the ability to say what we feel. We make our feelings known, and move on. WE USE OUR OWN WORDS! We do not have to rehash the same thing over and over and over, using Links to other peoples feelings. Mr. Sanger, you may be a Man Among Men in your country, So instead of jumping on the Zimmerman bus, teach him, direct him, take him under your wing. Just remember the bus makes the same sound no matter who it runs over...thump..thump... Respectfully, Rocky |

Post: Most Doctors Surveyed Believe in God By LINDSEY TANNER, AP CHICAGO (June 22) - A survey examining religion in medicine found that most U.S. doctors believe in God and an afterlife - a surprising degree of spirituality in a science-based field, researchers say. In the survey of 1,044 doctors nationwide, 76 percent said they believe in God, 59 percent said they believe in some sort of afterlife, and 55 percent said their religious beliefs influence how they practice medicine. "Belief in 'a supreme being is vitally important to physicians' ability to take care of patients, particularly the end-of-life issues that we deal with so often." -Dr. J. Edward Hill, American Medical Assoc. "We were surprised to find that physicians were as religious as they apparently are,'' said Dr. Farr Curlin, a researcher at the University of Chicago's MacLean Center for Clinical Medical Ethics. "There's certainly a deep-seated cultural idea that science and religion are at odds,'' and previous studies have suggested that fewer than half of scientists believe in God, Curlin said Wednesday. A previous survey showed about 83 percent of the general population believes in God. But while medicine is science-based, doctors differ from scientists who work primarily in a laboratory setting, and their direct contact with patients in life-and-death situations may explain the differing views, Curlin said. The study is based on responses to questionnaires mailed in 2003. It is to appear in an upcoming issue of the Journal of General Internal Medicine and was released online to subscribers earlier this month. Dr. J. Edward Hill, president of the American Medical Association, said religion and medicine are completely compatible, as long as doctors do not force their own beliefs on patients. Belief in "a supreme being ... is vitally important to physicians' ability to take care of patients, particularly the end-of-life issues that we deal with so often,'' said Hill, a family physician from Tupelo, Miss. Religions among physicians are more varied than among the general population, the survey found. While more than 80 percent of the U.S. population is Protestant or Catholic, 60 percent of doctors said they were from either group. Compared with the general population, more doctors were Jewish - 14 percent vs. 2 percent; Hindu - 5 percent vs. less than 1 percent; and Muslim - almost 3 percent vs. less than 1 percent. 06/22/05 21:03 EDT |

Downing Street Memo Shows Prudence And Planning by Allies

Post: The mainstream media organizations deny there's any news in the news from Downing Street. Date published: 6/23/2005 THE SMOKE HAS just about cleared following the small brush fire caused by the Downing Street memos, and responsible observers agree that we can ignore them. Perhaps I shouldn't have said smoke. I didn't mean to imply that the secret British documents are smoking guns that show the Bush administration made up its mind to invade Iraq as early as March 2002 even though the intelligence did not support such action. These memos certainly aren't smoking guns. In fact, they don't even tell us anything new, and if you had any sense you'd know that, just as you'd know that our leaders choose war only as a last option, that we invaded Iraq because we were attacked first, and that the Iraqi insurgency is in its last throes. The wise folks on The Washington Post's editorial board summed up the irrelevance of the British documents in an editorial last week: "The memos add not a single fact to what was previously known about the administration's prewar deliberations. Not only that: They add nothing to what was publicly known in July 2002" (when the latest memos were produced). The Post's editorial writers are authorities on all this prewar stuff. After all, they could see that Colin Powell's February 2003 presentation to the United Nations amounted to an "irrefutable" case against Iraq. As they put it then: "It is hard to imagine how anyone could doubt that Iraq possesses weapons of mass destruction." They also could see that Saddam and al-Qaida were in cahoots and that an invasion of Iraq was "an operation essential to American security" But if you really need a second opinion about the Downing Street memos, how about The New York Times? They're real smart, too. After Powell's U.N. speech, the Times said the then-secretary of state "may not have produced a 'smoking gun,'" but his presentation left "little question that Mr. Hussein had tried hard to conceal one." See, these people know a few things about smoking guns. And the Downing Street memos aren't smoking guns. Or, as the Times put it in a news analysis last week, "the memos are not the Dead Sea Scrolls." That's right. If it's the gospel on Iraq you're seeking, you should listen to your government, or to those who serve as loyal operatives of your government, such as former Iraqi exile Ahmed Chalabi, who taught Times reporter Judith Miller everything she needed to know about those scary WMD that Saddam's mad scientists were making. Like the Post's editorial writers, the Times noticed nothing new in the Downing Street memos. "There has been ample evidence for many months, and even years, that top Bush administration figures saw war as inevitable by the summer of 2002," the paper said. See? A lot of yapping about nothing--that's what this Downing Street flap is. So you can stop reading this column right here and go find something more interesting, like another story about Tom Cruise and whoever that schoolgirl is he's supposedly marrying. But since I have to fill up the rest of this column space, I will run through some of the current hysteria surrounding the Downing Street memos. Those waving the memos around and yelling for impeachment proceedings to begin say it is, too, news that the United States' closest ally thought the case for war was "thin" (British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw's assessment, according to one document) and that it nervously sought to concoct some sort of legal cover for an invasion. The memoheads also wonder why, if everything in the documents was "publicly known" by the summer of 2002, the Post's and Times' news coverage and editorials were not much more skeptical of the Bush administration's prewar claims and machinations. To buttress their charge that the decision to invade Iraq was made well before the president said it was, some of the memoheads have begun citing reports about the increase in U.S. and British bombing attacks against Iraq in the months preceding the ground campaign. One recent article in The Sunday Times of London (which first broke the story about the Downing Street memos) said there was a spike in bombings in May 2002 and that the purpose was not to defend no-fly zones in Iraq but to goad Saddam into retaliating so there would be a pretext for all-out war. Like the Downing Street memos, this war-before-the-war story has gotten quite a bit of attention in Britain, yet not much over here. But I'm sure the reason the story has been ignored by the likes of the Post and the Times is that it is old news. Heck, the Post probably even did that story before the war, and it's not their fault if you didn't happen to see it on Page A20 below a piece on the plight of Tanzanian goat herders. The Downing Street memos controversy points out a definite contrast between the U.S. and British media. It's no wonder one of the memos stated that the British government "had to manage a press that was very different than anything in the States." All I know is that I'm sure glad I live in America and not over there, where my judgment could easily be clouded by a bunch of hyperventilating journalists out to sensationalize the most trivial things. Say, did you see the ring Tom Cruise gave that little teeny-bopper? RICK MERCIER is a writer and news editor for The Free Lance-Star. Date published: 6/23/2005 |

Post: Thank You Very Much My friends! As I stated in NC someone in my house apparently could not keep silent. But I am home now, and very tired still. So I will be on a little less the next few days.(But I will still check messages).Most of you know that I take massive doses of Blood Thinners (ie: Heparin, Lovenox, and Coumadin) well unfortunatly one of the side effects to this is the occasional "bad Bleed". I awoke yesterday in a terrible "haze", unable to stand and maintain my balance. An hour or so later I was waking in the recovery room. Apparently I had a vein burst in my neck, that they were able to patch together with a "synthetic sleeve". A couple of stiches on the outside, God knows how many on the inside, a couple of units of blood, and good as new. Thank you all for your kind words. I am the one truly Honored to call you FRIENDS! Have A great Day And a Better Tomorrow! Very Respectfully, Rocky |

Post: No one's even picking up that the conviction was MANSLAUGHTER? Considering the amount of time that has passed, they were lucky to get what they got. Put into consideration, that so many from that period are now deceased. Kinda hard to drum up convincing testimony from a corpes, to support Murder 1. The others convicted were also of Manslaughter.
