    Patriot Act rule rejected by judge

    It's good too read that piece, the way the Patriot Act was headed it reminded me of the House of Un-American Activities Act, from the 1950's. Remember in the McCarthy Era, how they arrested and put to Secret Trials, Film Directors, Screenwriters and such for supposed Communist Sympathies. Just...

    Lets get one thing straight about iraq and Al-Queda...

    Exactly, and you could also say that because the US helped Iraq in there decade long War against Iran, and knew they had chemical Weapons then, is why they thought they still had them now. Also I am certain in that War against Iran, the Taliban and Al-Queda where helping Saddam under US...

    Starbucks Coffee

    They've tried opening a few Starbucks down here in Australia, however they have not been very succesful. As some may know Australia has a High migrant population, so going back to the 50's we had a huge influx of Italians, Greeks etc, so we've grown up drinking good coffee. Never been into a...
