To be honest, I would not want to see them on the end of a rope... the sentiment is just a way of expressing the anger I feel for the greed driven destruction they have caused, particularly to those who can least afford the consequences of this financial meltdown.  However, while I am a non-violent pacifist who does not believe in taking another human life, do do believe these people should be punishied for the damage they've caused... siezing their assets would be one way, and prison terms for those who broke the law to profit.

Meanwhile, Sarah Palin's 'Igloos Across America' project is gaining momentum and backers. An un-named Alaskan engineer has put forward an idea to save on power/refrigeration to lowerinfrastructure costs.  This engineer, reportedly a relative of Palin, proposes to cut off a piece of the Arctic Circle and tow it South to somewhere in US central, thus negating the need for artificial cooling by naturally lowering the temperature with Arctic ice.

Another backer of the scheme, a great white hunter, is going to herd up all the polar bears and shoo them all over the Russian border to Alaska... the idea being to eliminate the eventuality of yellow snow and ice, something he believes would present a health hazrd to igloo dwellers and burden the health system.

Apparently, Ms Palin is quite enthusiastic and excited about the project, believing it will completely eliminate homelessness right across america.  OK, so she's a gun toting moose murderer, but I have to commend Ms Palin for investigating an alternative to the housing/mortgage crisis to what those reverse Robin Hoods are thinking... to give to the rich so they can keep stealing from the poor.

Yeah, idiot Bush just opened the door for Iran.  With a strong Iraq, even with Sadam in power, Iran could,'t move on any of its neighbors.  Now there isn't a country there, save for Isreal, to stop Iran.  So that would mean someone elses presence there.  Who, Russia?  France?  Nope, U.S. with the Saudies paying the bill.

John, please dial it down a bit....No one kills babies as a requirement for thinking left as opposed to religious right.

Oh yes, and thanks for helping to elect the fool who accomplished what Al Qaida couldn't: The destruction of The Constitution and the loss of the crown of Jurisprudence and Justice: Habeas Corpus.

WOM: Yep! Aren't you proud of the "Mission Accomplished" from TX? (actually, Connecticut).

Pictoratus:

Aye, ye knows how to kick a feller wot be down!  Next ting ya know, I be awaken up wit no legs or doctor to see neither!

And me not liken Hillary?  Ow can ye say dat?  Cause me huevos not be in her lock box mayhaps?

Aye, careful der Cap'n.  He be doing your next operashun!

The reminds me of the baby shower my work threw me after my 4th was born.  My best friend and coworker was there.  Some of the others gave me a "Do It Yourself" vasectomy kit.  I thought it was funny.  My best friend - still single at the tiem - would not touch it!

So you see Capn' Starkers, I really do know hillary - She wot was da one that marketed the kit!

I simply don't understand how anyone that thinks killing an animal is wrong could agree that leaving an aborted baby (that is born alive) to die is right.

While it is not a requirement that if you are a liberal that you must support this, the guy being put on the pedestal as the liberal representative did vote in support of it.

And before you accuse me of being some right wing religious whacko, I realize that he merely voted in support of abortion language that he approved of and not necessarily for this specific language. I guess some of us respect human life and others respect it all the way until it comes in the way of our agenda.

I also realize that all this cross posting crap causes long time members that have never been active on the JU side to get a peek into what's going on here. You should be mindful of the jabs you toss.

Yup. That's why I've worked my butt off for 28 years days and nights as an M.D. Because human life is not on my agenda. Makes sense.

What I think is that people are conglomerates of beliefs seemingly contradictory or not. No one has a right to criticize anyone else's beliefs. America is advanced citizenship: It's not enough to "tolerate" others' beliefs. You have to be willing to fight to the death to support the right of another citizen to espouse beliefs abhorrent to you.

It is precisely none of your business if another person can abort a fetus or not. Incidentally, a glom of cells or even a fetus is not a "killable" entity until it draws it's first breath. Just because there is a "conceptus", nothing says it will gestate successfully or be capable of life at birth. There is a spontaneous "loss" rate in each trimester. Therefore, no one can say with certainty that a terminated pregnancy would have ended with the birth of a viable human.

As for "long time members (what that was in reference to I'm unsure) take note of mine.

Hit me now WOM. I'm in the mood.

Just found it! The DIY Vasectomy kit!

Me mate Starkers be right wot Republican be wantin' and jealous! I be findin a 'shopped pic o' Palin and 'er vasectomy kit!

(This is Urban Legend and a photoshopped pic. Not Genuine) And as lotsa this thread, tongue in cheek.

and just where does this happen? if you have specific knowledge (not some rumor you've heard) relay it to the proper authorites immediately.

Don't know, JesseJ. I assumed it was on WC. I almost never visit JU.

They are rubber - They bounce.
