The country I would stand behind would have French/N. Italian chefs/food, Australian wanderlust, Canadian sense of humor, Czech beer, German autobahns (with less traffic, please) American computers (as long as they were Macs), Finnish education, Mexican beaches, the cleanliness of Singapore...

Nope, American. Aber im Herzen bin ich Deutscher. I use the flag in a couple other forums and it can create some interesting reactions.

Fuel cell technology is still in its infancy. Japan has made great progress and has a huge vested interest in it. They have little oil/gas of their own and are unwilling to fight wars to obtain it ;) The best estimates are that it will be widely available in 25-40 years. Some Arab...

Run is what I'd do. gw did! http://www.motherjones.com/news/outfront/2003/02/ma_217_01.html Seriously though, it would depend upon the war. The war in Iraq was pre-emptive and ill-advised. If another country attacked the US then yes, I would. If it was a pre-emptive strike against N...

It is still debatable as to whether they did or not, the Kurds did, definitely, but they make up only a small part of the population. And the majority of those who did welcome the troops with open arms were kids in search of chocolate, not exactly "proof" is it? Where is the proof to back...

Yeah, sorf of sad huh. Unfortunately, Wolfowitz was hired not elected or even appointed. The only way to get rid of him is to get rid of gw.

No they don't. Most of them are transformed by the power of the office, seduced might be a better word. gw has never had a definining moment. He went awol, his daddy's buds bailied him out of failing businesses, and from that bailout he bought the rangers. Owning a baseball team is like...

According to this website, your camera is supported. But, according to Apple Toshiba is not listed as a supported camera link Toshiba's web site isn't very helpful and the info they give about Apple does not include your camera model. link I would contact Toshiba and see if they have...

You're beginning to sound an awful lot like the people your father escaped from.

I disagree with you on the desert issue. They have the home court advantage. Most GIs don't come from deserts and the Iraqi desert isn't a huge, flat expanse of sand, rather hilly, rocky and full of ravines. Guerilla warfare would be more difficult in Iraq than in Vietnam, but it wouldn't be...

The US spends twice as much as France does on healthcare. That should mean, according to your reasoning, that the US healthcare system is twice as good as the French one. Recent analysis seems to indicate that France is near the top of industrialized nations when it comes to health care and...

I agree that it is a clash, but I would call it a clash of cultures. Americans who are accustomed to a certain sense of order, albeit one that is pretty rough around the edges, have to deal with Iraqis who knew only the order of oppression. A Slovak friend once told me that in the days of...

Ummmmmhhhhhhhhh!!! Nice and dark and thick enough to drink it with a spoon. I think I'm gonna go make one now.

Oh, so the amount of money spent on the military should have, by your reasoning, prevented 9-11, The Murrow building bombing, the first twin tower bombing, the USS Cole attack, the embassy bombing in Kenya, hmmm, what else is there? Outspending the world on military muscle does not mean...

I remember those numbers very well even though I was younger than Androo. Every newscast had the body count for the day, it was surprising how easily most people dealt with it. I haven't seen any comments about a post war war, so I can't comment on that but the war in Iraq can in no way be...

Terrorism, just like the word hero, has lost its meaning these past couple of decades. America's heros have become overpaid, whiny professional sports players. Terrrorists are now tree sitters and nuns protesting the College of the Americas. One man's terrorism may well be another's...

Well, Androo, let us see how it looks!

What an incredible photo!!!!

That is a tough call,,,,,,, I think I like On & On the best. But BFFT is a little more edgy.

I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. What an excellent spoof!
