No Permanent Bases in Iraq
House Passes Lee Bill to Ban Permanent Bases in Iraq
WASHINGTON - JULY 25 Today, by a vote of 399-24, the House passed legislation introduced by Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-Oakland) to prevent permanent military bases in Iraq and bar U.S. control over Iraqi oil resources. Lee's bill, H.R. 2929, declares that it is the policy of the United States not to establish any military installation or base for the purpose of providing for the permanent stationing of United States Armed Forces in Iraq and not to exercise United States control of the oil resources of Iraq and prohibits the use of funds for these purposes. Damned clever way of Congress to send a message to Bush/Cheney, who obviously still have designs on that oil. I bet there's a bunch of neocons running around trying to figure out how to create a private standing army to protect American (corporate) oil interests. jps |

You either need one where the people are too damn dumb to read the paper and will rely on you to cut and paste the news.....(to what point? If they can't read it in the newspaper, there's no chance they can read it here) Or one where the participants come together for some other purpose other than a recreational pursuit like boating. |

No... you are clueless. I'm fully aware what a Ninja is. Maybe he was just responding to your personal attack. There are people who don't know much about motorcycles and wouldn't get the play on the word 'ninja'. Personally, I'd never have one because the riding position is too extreme for my old joints. I've never known a crotch-rocket rider who could go for much more than a half-hour without a break. -- John H |

I talked to my friend in Holland yesterday. His mom, quite old, just moved from her apartment in Gouda (cheese capitol of the world) to a senior's home on the edge of town. She finally realized that she couldn't do as much for herself any more. If discussing your mother causes you to reduce the personal attacks on folks, then that's a good thing. It's funny how you would make that association though. -- John H |

The law in Calif. says you have to have insurance to drive a car. But if you get caught with no insurance, the penalty is nada. And if you crash into someone, they will not sue as you have nothing to sue for. |

Fact is I have not had anything to drink since SWMBO and I split a 1/2 liter of nice Salt Spring Island wine while eating some great Vancouver Island lamb chops at House Piccolo in Ganges. And the bill was more than you could spend on dinner. As to drinking, rarely imbibe. What is your excuse for always sounding drunk? Just stupid? |
