Is Zinfandel (shudder) still the biggest seller ? You don't like White Zinfandel? SV I tasted a nice Zin over a steak in a great restauarant in the Marina complex at Long Beach, but it's the only one I've tasted that appealed in any way. Zins have grown in popularity over the past few years here. It appears they seem to appeal to the same individuals who enjoy full-bodied cabs and merlots. Good zins are excellent wines; that white zinfandel crap is what gave the grape a bad name. Some zin vineyards are so old that the vines are beginning to die off. When it was not as popular, the best zin grapes were often used in blended meritage wines, but now old vine zin is selling better than merlot and shiraz. Max |

. .. Time to just pull out of Iraq. The terrorists won't ever win. Their philosophy is morally bankrupt. America bailed on Communism in Cuba, North Korea, VietNam, and bailed in Somalia, Haiti, plus dozens of other places and they all failed eventually. Really?? Last I looked, the commies were doing just fine in Cuba, North Korea and Vietnam. The people weren't but the commies were fat. Moreover, the Taliban was had a strangle hold on Afghanistan til we came along and the ayatollahs are still running Iran. Worse, Iran and N. Korea are building atomics. Evil only exists because immoral American politicians support it. Without support, evil collapses upon itself. Depends on what you call evil. IMHO killing women for being literate is evil but Muslim regimes flourish. The Republicans are lying swindlers, big spenders and on a religious war. Let's stop supporting that evil too. Amen indeed! But the SOBs have already opened Pandora's box when they toppled Saddam and began turning Iraq into a clone of Iran - possibly the greatest blunder in 500 years. What would you suggest we do about that?? |

A vietnam vet said it best. He's a victim of Bush's propaganda. " I have no regrets concerning our involvement in Iraq. I would rather, MUCH rather, get the terrorists in thier own neighborhoods than coming through my kitchen door. Saddam had zip to do with 9/11. In fact he was the strongest bulwark against the jahidists who did in the middle east. Toppling him is the equivalent of having suddenly attacked Stalin whilst trying to get ready for the Normandy invasion in WW2. Fact is we did the real anti-US terrorists a big favor by invading Iraq. I don't think the media is doing a good job of telling us what is really happening in Iraq. They show us a crowd of a 100 people that are ****ed about something, but they never show us the 900 people that are tickled to death that we have set them free..... Sure, free to join Iran and other radical Shiite radicals in their drive to impose a Taliban-like government on the world. How long should it take to "impose" freedom on a suppressed population? Please understand that these people dispise what we call "freedom". They don't want it and they don't want anybody else to have it. They believe Allah made the law (Sharia) and the government should enforce it. Should we help freedom to take root, .... We would have to utterly destroy Islam to do that because Islam is the very opposite of freedom. Muslims don't believe in free choice, they believe that everybody must be governed by Islamic law. Should we sit silently when we are outragiously attacked, No! But we should punish the ones who attacked us, not Saddam! Guess what - bin Ladin and company are still free and planning their next attacks! Why? Because Blundering Bush diverted our military and intel resources to attack his personal enemy and to find non-existant WMDs to justify his blunder. Worse yet, he didn't provide enough troops to secure Saddam's weapons dumps so, in effect, he handed them over to the real enemy - the enemy that perp'd 9/11 - and that enemy is using those weapons to kill our kids right now. Jeeze, what if some American had supplied Ho Chi Min with tons and tons of weapons and explosives that Ho subsequently used to kill 1000s of Americans - would you call that man a traitor?? I would. And yet that is exactly what Bush has done regarding the terrorists who perpetrated 9/11 and more. He toppled the 3rd biggest army in the world and left all its material to be picked up by these terrorists and used to kill our sons and daughters. Hanoi Jane did nothing that bad yet many Americans, including me, deem her a traitor. should we stand up for our own rights and way of life? How did toppling Saddam do that? How did handing Saddam's military equipment to al Qaida do that? How is turning Iraq into another Iran doing that?? Personally, I am going to defend my way of life, even if that means that I will be sending my own kids and my neighbor's kids into the line of fire. Then you should be doing your best to remove Bush from office then try him for treason - and to bring our military and intel resources to bear on the jahidists who perp'd 9/11 and are our real enemies!! |

Winemakers use extra grape skins to improve the color of Zinfandel. They then make that weak and characterless "White Zin" from the waste grape pulps. Previously the pulps had been used as compost for fertilizer. Making alco-pop from them is far more profitable. Fish fins and scales are thrown into beer to clear it up. Why isn't that done with wine? I, myself prefer a "Perth Pink" or a "Chateau de Rod Laver". Do you have any idea of the bouquet? Praise! |
