    Paid for by special interest groups, I love it! Look at how much they said 37 in Oregon would cost and then look at the acual costs, MUCH DIFFERENT. It is nice to see the enviromental groups admiting how much they have taken from private land owners.

    Zogby: Democrats hold leads in races for 11 out of 15 key Republican-held House seats. Not OPEN seats. Republican-held ones. WHoops, I’m wrong. Five are open seats where a Republican is retiring.

    “The Democratic edge is such that their candidates lead in seven of the nine House districts that contain Republican advantages in party identification…The Reuters/Zogby package of tracking polls did not include former Florida GOP Rep. Mark Foley’s specific race and it did not include races where Democrats may be endangered.”

    The gig is up. The righties have been trying to shift blame all day on thi by saying the Dems knew and sat on it. well that red herring lasted about a minute. Now Foley’s own right hand man said he told Hastert two years ago and old Denny was more interested in power than protecting the pages. Now what you lying shitbag, asshole republicans? Now what next?

    WASHINGTON — The United States in its starkest warning so far said on Wednesday it would not live with a nuclear-armed North Korea, while Japan and other neighbors hardened their responses after the reclusive state announced it planned a nuclear test.

    “We are not going to live with a nuclear North Korea, we are not going to accept it,” U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Chris Hill said. He warned Pyongyang that “it can have a future or it can have these weapons. It cannot have both.”

    Hill spoke after a U.S. defense official said the United States had detected activity at potential test sites in North Korea, indicating possible preparations for a nuclear test. North Korea, which has said it has nuclear bombs, on Tuesday said it would conduct its first nuclear test.

    Hill refused to say what steps Washington might take to see that North Korea did not succeed in testing a weapon. But he said: “We will do all we can to dissuade the DPRK from this test.”

    You Girlie Boys better start building that bomb shelter I see mushrooms sprouting in North Korea. Maybe your mommie can help you pour concrete Saturday.

    In fact, the U.S. government admits that crude oil inventories are at 7 year record high — with 343 million barrels of oil stockpiled in the U.S. alone!

    Don I could explain that but you would not believe what I said because you have never been in that part of the world. Now if you wanted to fight a war what would be the best place to fight it to your advance? This place would require you the advantage to hunt and kill your enemies and keep your casualties down during the conflict. The other requirement it has to be near where the enemy lives and they can cross the borders unopposed and armed. Don these folks do not wear uniforms or name tags and carrying a weapon exposes who they are, and making them free game. Have you been in North Korea you would know that that is not the best area to conduct a War, and they have over a million man army defending that DMZ? That does not make them safe from being blown away in a few weeks, but requires different weapons and tactics to win. Now the mind sets of the two cultures are as different as night and day and require different strategies on bring these conflicts to an end. You know it is Politically Incorrect to teach Military Strategy and Tactics in Seattle schools today so this might be hard for you to understand. PS; WMD had nothing to do with us invading Iraq and oil wasn’t a factor either. That is idea came from Move on dot org.

    I am a bit confused by the logic behind the “I-933 would cost $X bajillon” ads. Suppose I’m considering voting for I-933, because I believe that, if the public wants the enjoyment that it gets out of leaving someone’s land un-developed, it should have to pay for that enjoyment. When a group runs an add saying “I-933 would cost $X bajillon”, they are essentially saying “we were planning on taking $X bajillon worth of value from private land-holders without compensating them, but now we would actually have to pay them for it.” In that case, doesn’t a bigger X make me more resolved to vote for I-933?

    Clearly, if you believe that the government should always decide the use of private property, you will vote against 933. Clearly, if you believe the government should never decide the use of private property, you will vote for 933. The interesting people are those in between, people who belive there needs to be some government interference in the use of private propery, but who believe that government should not interfere too much.

    Suppose you tell those moderates that 933 would prevent $X worth of government interference. If X is small, you are telling them that the government isn’t interfering much anyway, so they may conclude that 933 isn’t necessary. But if you tell them X is large, presumably they will be more likely to conclude that something like 933 is necessary in order to reign in government interference.

    David,

    Read the last few graphs of that Seattle Times article. Some poor shmuck wants to subdivide some property, but can’t due to GMA-mandated regulations. So, said shmuck applies for compensation under I933. The local municipality decides to waive the regulation, at which point an environmental group steps in with a lawsuit against the municipality and/or the shmuck. How long before the shmuck either receives adequate compensation or is allowed to subdivide the property? Looks like a great way to line the pockets of a number of land-use attorneys and screw just about everybody else, no?

    KKKlake, the only flip-flop going on here is on your foot. You came up with this scare tactic about North Korea, yet did the do-si-do in defense of invading Iraq when the real threat is North Korea. Sorry, pal. The only person doing any ass-kissing is you, and the ass you’re kissing is your own. And, frankly, you’re just too damn stupid to get away with the William F. Buckley, “You just don’t understand” schtick.

    MWS @ 69:

    The point being? Khameini says we’re not supposed to drink alcohol, wear short-sleeved shirts, or eat pork at any time, Ramadan or no. This hasn’t cut down on my consumption of Montepulciano, changed my dress habits, or made me foreswear dead pig.

    The fact that there are fundie Christian assholes in the United States that I don’t care for very much, does not mean that I hold fundie Muslim assholes in somewhere far away in higher regard.

    Frankly, no matter how much disdain I have for Pat Robertson or James Dobson, neither of them have spent a day in their life promoting the development of a “Christian Bomb” to wipe nasty secularists like me off the face of the earth. Khameini has. As such, I keep my dislike for these gentlemen in perspective.

    Klake, will you PLEASE take an adult ed class on spelling and grammar. You write like a fucking moron (come to think of it, it was probably because of two fucking morons that you’re here to begin with).
    I will say a couple things for you, you sure know how to copy and paste (without attributing credit to your source), and you sure know how to parrot old right wing talking points like “Kerry was for the war before he was against it”.
    You Klake, are a fucking moron parrot.
    In case you missed it, a lot of people supported Bush when they were shown the misleading evidence that this lying president showed them. Once the truth became known, they reversed their positions. It take an upstanding person to admit they made a mistake. I haven’t heard King George admit to any mistakes yet (and we sure as hell know he’s made one or two (or 67,349 or so).
    So KKKLake. Go get an education and then pop off.

    The “Mainstream Media” are merely lap dogs for the Islamo-Fascists.

    If I asked one of the Westerners Hezbollah will say it is a terrorist group backed by Iran and Syria. But if you want to know the really personal opinion, listened carefully to what to say after that.
    The impacts of the Israeli aggression on Lebanon. growing interest in Hezbollah and keeps articles and discussion programs and reports in the course of aggression and beyond. These articles and graduated from the pro-Party for closer to neutrality and even hostile to the ideology and presence. But reflecting these essays and short stories transpires seems very clear, Everyone from loyal friend to the malevolent anti Bastthinaih share the conviction that the Party and distinctiveness of the most xenophobic paid him to respect the abilities based on faith and creative stock of the human person in the world has lost his faith in human beings, and the measures strength material like anything else.

    In this report we will present a few examples of articles and Western positions clear in its hostility to Hizbullah, to discern from between the lines of hatred that the image of Hezbollah as witness.

    In the military field
    Despite the elaborate book essays and lecturers in the adjective Hezbollah terrorism, everyone agrees on the efficiency of the party men hostilities. FBI official said any John Kavanagh in his testimony before the Congress of International Relations, Hezbollah continues to be one of the most “terrorist” organizations and capacity, “the gangs of well-trained expert in military tactics and the use of weapons.”
    In an article on the site ( http://Www.theeveningbulletin.com ) Under the title “Lessons of Lebanon : Hezbollah and wars vehicle,” Frank Hoffman says in the course of discussion of the steps that must be followed in the United States of America to develop their military capabilities “to terrorist groups.” he says, “Hezbollah confirms a growing trend that cells with high disciplinary and well-trained and able to confront the forces distributed a mixture of traditional guerrilla tactics and technology in the urban centers of high density.” And adds : “Hezbollah is clearly the ability of the players, not the States to study and the dismantling of military weak points western style, and devise appropriate countermeasures. ”
    The performance of the media
    In an article published on the web site ( http://Www.camera.org ) On 9-26-2006 under the title “Hizballah media.” make the writer Ricky Holander painstaking effort to prove that Hezbollah had manipulated the media and journalists in the course of the Israeli aggression on Lebanon to the benefit of the media war against the Zionist aggressor. The author of the article, the shipment of the article and the proofs of evidence to prove his theory. and despite the fact that what was provided not stand up to logical scrutiny without recourse to evidence or proof countermeasures, we will move beyond this point because it is not within the scope of our search now. What concerns us is that any reader who has a neutral analytical capability independent of the direction in which any writer might want to deny him a key draw from the article, is that Hezbollah played brilliantly even exceed securities embargo, which prevents the arrival of his media Kalmenar to Western public opinion in particular.

    The writer, having paved the attention of the party to explain the information and the establishment of the Al-Manar channel, which broadcast sought to become a satellite channel, then after that prohibits broadcast in the United States and some European countries, he says, “but Hizbollah’s media were no longer limited to only Manar” goes to explaining how Mr. Hassan Nasrallah chose neo NTV television appearance for the media after the end of the first war, terming this as an example to overcome the Hezbollah to the restrictions imposed on it through the delivery of messages to the public by the Arab media broadcast widely considered this evidence of the complicity of the Arab media. To then moves to provide examples to prove that the party had been able to also broadcast his views and his vision of the events via the international media, saying : “More than that, Hezbollah media campaign has expanded beyond the Arab news stations to reach the international press as well. ” And this trend increased in the absence of a substantive way that the writer put the point of view of showing that the exploitation wants Hezbollah to the international media seems incomplete intelligence and largely unconvincing any reader of the average culture, However, the conclusion could be out by this reader is that Hezbollah has already succeeded in spite of the lack neutral in the Western media that the broadcast of the way substantial part of the picture of what was happening on the ground. For instance, the writer says in the context of explanation of the press tour, which was organized by the Hezbollah in the southern suburb “of Hezbollah benefited fully from the scene of CNN that, for verbally attacking the Israeli military, and emphasizes that the objectives of the Israeli army is a civilian, and to shout echoing that Hezbollah would not surrender. ” The writer goes on to say that Host Zambia Robertson perhaps realized that it had been used for the later, and after several days.
    And in the position (The Philadelphia Jewish Voice), in its issue of 10 – 15-2006 an article entitled “from the victim to the criminal,” the writer Ranan Gissen. the writer discusses the importance of public diplomacy to Israel paved saying on the performance during Adonha Israel against Lebanon “So, instead of that war is about Israel’s right to self-defense, the Hezbollah was able to reverse that, bringing the topic in the international agenda is the destruction of Israel to Lebanon, and that Israel is the cause of instability in the world. the victim has become the criminal. ” In this article, which Sitmad all its considerations from the point of view of Zionism net, the writer says the Anti-Zionist entity “This war is a symptom of the inability of Israel to prepare a strategic public diplomacy tool of war. it would be useful to learn from Hezbollah and follow what he has done in terms of preparations to meet the requirements of the general strategy of diplomatic initiative. ” And adds, “We need to realize that the media is a tool that can operate a system of weapons. Hezbollah before Israel ten years in terms of the ability to use and exploit information for strategic goals. ” The general message that the writer wants delivery that Israel must act in order to give legitimacy through public diplomacy to kill civilians and the destruction of civilian installations for, as the writer says, “armies fighting each other in the desert is something of the past. From now on it will be the dirty wars, This means that the role of public diplomacy has become much greater. ”
    And on the Newshour Anternashnol magazine, singled journalist Kevin Beraino full article under the title “win hearts and minds.” on the advertising campaign carried out by the party in the suburb after the war, in the framework of preparations for the festival of victory divine, showing his admiration for the high professionalism of which was carried out this campaign, he says, “Even some Israeli officials acknowledge that Hezbollah may donate in the battle over international public opinion.”
    Hezbollah inside Lebanon
    The other point that it seems clear consensus in the West, is the cleanliness of the hands of Hezbollah. In many articles critical of the Western Hezbollah and the pro-government current Lebanese, we find that it states that one of the strongest points better than the party on the current government is clean hands in the face of corruption. In an article by David Schenker entitled “important new Hezbollah” analysts speak writer Address by Mr. Hassan Nasrallah, the last act, and to explain the difficulties faced by Siniora government to impose its agenda supported by the United States of America, and in one of these points, he says, “and in the light of widespread corruption in the government of Lebanon. this call for a clean government provides another argument for the non-specific Hezbollah to keep arms. ”
    And in an article on the site (themedialine.org) titled “War Hezbollah political,” put the writer of the Roman Ederer view of the chapters of the Lebanese internal politics, a summary of what he wants to say in the first two lines of the article, where he says : “Hezbollah says it wants to develop its regional Almlichi in the form of more constructive persons, But Altassarihat issued by the group recently do not support this assertion. ” , But he says in the article also during the recount of the entry of Hizbullah in the elections in 1992, “eight of the candidates succeeded in entering Parliament, Based on the basis of his reputation as an uncorrupt serve citizens. ” Later, he adds that “there are more than 160,000 damaged or destroyed homes, construction Jihad to Hezbollah started to take the leadership once again that began submit to the victims of the recent war, the assistance that the government did not wish Siniora, or are very slow to make. ”

    These profiles quickly from a limited number of articles by Western hostile, and doubling times of articles that reflect the achievements of Hezbollah. imposed on the enemy before the friend acknowledged, the reader finds in the pages of the press the Zionist state that the news of soldiers shooting Hezbollah activists, politicians and political intelligence, which distinguishes the unique leadership of this party.

    Democratic Organizer Quits After Calling Allen ‘Macacawitz’

    Thursday, October 5, 2006; B02

    A field organizer for Democratic congressional candidate Al Weed resigned yesterday after it was discovered that she referred to Sen. George Allen (R-Va.) as “Macacawitz.”

    In an e-mail sent last night, Meryl Ibis asked Democratic supporters to protest “George ‘Macacawitz’ Allen” during a Republican rally in Danville.

    The term “Macacawitz” is an apparent reference to Allen’s use of the word “macaca” and the recent discovery that he has Jewish heritage.

    Weed spokesman Kurt Gleeson said the staffer “made a mistake in her language that was not sanctioned by the campaign.” Weed is challenging Rep. Virgil H. Goode Jr. (R-Va.) in the Southside district.

    Dick Wadhams, Allen’s campaign manager, said Ibis’s e-mail “fits a pattern of anti-Semitic behavior” by Democrats. Wadhams said Allen’s opponent, Democrat James Webb, should be held accountable for Ibis’s e-mail because she also was one of his volunteer organizers.

    Kristian Denny Todd, a Webb spokeswoman, said Wadhams sounds desperate.

    “I’ve never heard her name,” Todd said. “She is a Weed for Congress staffer, and they took care of it right away.”
