Seems the sailors have a small 'motorcycle gang' called the 'Wasp Raiders' aboard and bring their bikes along so they can terrorize foreign ports. One Petty Officer 1st Class has a Harley Davidson 2000 Electra Glide. Seems more like a Club Med cruise! http://www.hfxnews.ca/index.cfm?sid=39084&sc=89 I don't see a problem with the motorcycles. But, this is disturbing: "No offence, but I've never heard of Halifax." But E2 Mike Beck, a young sailor from Philadelphia, said couldn't wait to get off the deck of the USS Wasp to explore the city. "I know you guys probably got some maple syrup," said Beck, who's only foray into Canada previously was to Niagara Falls." Maybe it's just me, but don't some people ever open an atlas, even once or twice in their lives? I wonder what picture he sees in his head when he finds out his ship's going to the Mediterranean. "Oh boy - Mexico!" Here are some of his relatives. Watch what happens when the idiots are sticking pins in the map. http://www.digitalfog.com/gallery/invasion.html It's good bet that the undereducated will be electing our leaders soon. Better be nice to them. "Is our children learning?" The uneducated have already voted twice, John. Your CiC's entire campaign (and stage act) were designed to appeal to the uneducated. |

I take this to mean that if you met your kid's teachers and they said "Is our children learning", you would have no reservations at all about those teachers. True? |

I was observing your statement of voting twice (for a republican I take it?) And I was merely stating that they had voted twice (for a democrat?) previously. No association with Fox News, but trying to be "fair and balanced" |

No association with Fox News, but trying to be "fair and balanced" Any Bush supporter who voted for Clinton must've done so because they liked his hair, because they sure as hell didn't understand much of what he said. On the other hand, here's Bush: "This process has been drug out a long time, which says to me it's political."-Discussing the controversy surrounding Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez, Sofia, Bulgaria, June 11, 2007 In case you're the type who likes to say the president's words must've been twisted or misunderstood by a reporter, here's a link to the video. His attempt to undo the efforts of English teachers everywhere can be found at about 23:18 (23 minutes and 18 seconds): http://mfile.akamai.com/5913/wmv/whi...070611-1.v.asx |

Right, and that's why I pointed out that I think it's unlikely there was much voter overlap between the two candidates. If I'm wrong, then this country's got some very serious problems, and teachers should be allowed to waterboard kids and "urge them on" with cattle prods. |
