Response to Scott Steiner's comments about Triple H
2008-06-08 15:13:00 From Matthew Fargher of wrestling-edge.com:Ok, I was just reading about an interview that Scott Steiner gave with some magazine and the things he said in that interview I find pretty funny. First of all, he was going on about how the only way that Triple H got to look good is because he married the boss? daughter. Now, I am not going to say that getting married to the boss? daughter didn?t give him an in with the boss that few other wrestlers have, but to say that?s the only way Triple H got over is ridiculous. First of all let?s consider who is running his mouth about how bad Triple H is, Scott Steiner.Now I haven?t followed Steiner's career back to front but from what I have seen of him recently and in his WWE days he is one of the worst workers in wrestling. He is so stiff and old that it?s even difficult for someone like Kurt Angle to get a good match out of him. I have heard people talk about him being able to deliver a good promo but I have to disagree. I watched his ridiculo...

Same Old Santorum: A response to the Elephant in the Room
2008-05-31 03:29:00 by Mel Seesholtz Ph.D. Rick Santorums extremist views and abrasive rhetoric were the reasons Pennsylvania voters overwhelmingly booting him out of office in the largest margin of defeat for an incumbent senator since 1980. It seems he didnt learn anything from the experience. On May 22, 2008 Santorums biweekly Elephant in the Room column appeared in The Philadelphia Inquirer bearing the title A wake-up call on gay marriage after '03 alarm went unheeded. Its pure Santorum: fear-monger, self-aggrandizing, misleading, illogical. The first paragraph set the tone. Those were just a few of the terms hurled my way in 2003 when I said that the Supreme Court's Texas sodomy decision opened the door to the redefinition of marriage. When I wasnt ducking the epithets, I was being laughed at, mocked, and given the crazy-uncle-at-the-holidays treatment by the media. Or I was being told I should resign from my leadership post by some Senate colleagues. Wrong, Mr. Santoru...

Response to Zionist Apologist
2008-05-25 10:31:00 Always-excellent commenter James Schipper responds to Zionist Apologist from a previous post.Pretty good stuff here. The notion that the problem with Jews is Judaism itself is similar to the arguments of Gilad Atzmon and Israel Shamir. However, Kevin MacDonald points out that Jewish ethnocentrism does not go away in the absence of Judaism. A good document that makes that clear is his book review of Yuri Slezkine's The Jewish Century.I disagree with a lot in that review, but all you have to do is look around at a lot of Jewish radicals, and it's clear that they have not yet, and never will, make a complete break with their Jewish identity. So pulling the Judaism out of the Jew does not solve the problem. As my physician noted when I told him that according to Jewish law, you never quit being a Jew, "So they get a piece of you, eh?"In an unpublished interview with me, I asked Kevin MacDonald if the Jews would ever become less ethnocentric with time. He said emphatically, "No. The Je...

McCain 2013 ad and Biden's response.

Such ads tend to be ripe targets for satirists, but you can't be scared of that. They also create conversation. Here's Joe Biden feigning even more ignorance than he already has: In his speech, Senator McCain says that by 2013, "the Iraq war has been won." How? What's the strategy? Ever heard of the surge?

Islamâs Response to Terrorism
2008-05-15 08:33:00 by Abdul Ghany Jahangeer KhanIslam means the religion of peace. A person following Islam will find that he or she is surrounded by noble teachings, the aim of which is to establish peace between man and Allah, the Creator of all; between man and man; and between man and the rest of Allahâs creation.How does such a religion deal with the issue of terrorism? And what does the word terrorist mean? Dictionaries will define a terrorist as one who systematically uses violence and intimidation to achieve political ends â or one who controls or forces others to do something by violence, fear or threats.All these definitions are covered by two words in the Holy Qurâan, the sacred book of Islam: Fitnah and Ikrâh.In the Holy Qurâan, God begins to deal with the issue of terrorism by teaching Muslims never to become terrorists in the first place. Two of the very first verses of our Holy Book say: âAl-Fitnatu ashad-du minal qatlâ â meaning that in the sight of Allah, âpersecution...

Newsweek and the GOP onslaught- McCain response
2008-05-12 17:16:00 Man! Obama sure is lucky that he has more money and academia, most major newspapers, and almost all of the television networks on his side. He's going to need it when he goes against the vicious GOP attack machine this fall. Poor guy. In more evidence that I have, in fact, entered an alternate reality, Newsweek claims that the Republican attack machine, not theirs, is the scarier monster. Have they ever heard Howard Dean? Daily Kos? Huffington? How about using this Newsweek attack piece to preempt any McCain criticisms of Obama? I think this whole "GOP is meaner than us" is catching on amongst the easily self-deluded and self-righteous left. Here's the original Newsweek article. Below is the McCain campaign response by Mark Salter: Dear Jon, A useful way to read the piece would be to try to imagine you were a Republican reading it. The characterization of Republican presidential campaigns as nothing more than attack machines that use 527s and other means to smear opponent...

Yankee response in the hemisphere: the Fourth Fleet of intervention
2008-05-11 05:07:00 IT was created in 1943 to fight Nazi submarines and protect shipping during World War II. It was deactivated as unnecessary in 1950. The Southern Command was meeting the needs of United States hegemony in our region. However, it has been reborn in recent days, after 48 years, and its interventionist purposes do not need to be demonstrated. The military officials themselves, in their statements, are making that known naturally, spontaneously and even discreetly. The problems of food prices, energy, unequal trade, an economic recession in the market most important for their products, inflation, climate change and investments required for their consumerist dreams, are weighing down and consuming the time and energy of the leaders and the led. The real case is that the decision to reestablish the Fourth Fleet was announced in the first week of April, almost a month after Ecuador?s territory was attacked with bombs and U.S. technology and, by the latter?s pressure, killing and injuring...

Response To Bennett Interview Coming Monday
2008-05-10 19:58:00 The self-proclaimed "embodiment of the change people want" also known as Sam Bennett was interviewed by blogging bastard Bernie O'Hare last week. Bernie let the people post the questions that we wanted answers to.Bernie picked about 30 questions to ask her; she responded to all of them, however, she only answered some of them. Some questions she answered really well, others she avoided, and others she altered (added to) through e-mail.Bernie didn't do much follow-up after asking the questions, and I'm happy he didn't. Bennett was asked questions and given a fair chance to respond without any interviewer influence. There wasn't any added pressure put on her, nor was there an opportunity to sugarcoat her responses. Although she didn't allow a tape recorder, Bernie quoted her every response. Bernie did give Bennett the chance to e-mail him to add to and/or correct her responses, which is visible here.I'm going to have a responsive and opinionated blog on Monday regarding the int...

What is being prepared for the future stage and which coincides with US President George Bush's tour of the region? Has internal dialogue gone without return, and if it takes place, then what is its agenda? What will Hezbollah and the opposition do to face the new challenges?" Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Naim Qassim during a just completed May 8, 2008 interview Hezbollah sources concede that they were taken by surprise and some were shocked by the intense, incendiary bombardment of the last few days by pro-government operatives.
