You are missing the forest for the trees. The administration knew about this leak A YEAR AGO and tried to suppress the NY Times with the 2004 elections looming. A YEAR AGO, and yet there was no attempt by the administration to find the "leakers". But now that it shows up in print and is hurting...

But then we'd have to hold mid-term presidential elections, and that would be a major pain

Don't forget that Behe is an evolutionist. This is always fun to bring up when creationists try to use ID for some kind of proof of special creation.

Yes

well, that was completely unnecessary. The guy ends his post with a quip (and that's all it was) about your knowledge of history... and you call him a moron, a misogynist, a jerk and even toss out an F-bomb. You need to seriously chill out. When you are posting, ask yourself "What would Jesus...

My real problem with this movie is that they are trying to make it more historical, but insist on using the fantasy characters of the Arthurian Legends created around the 12th century. King Arthur was indeed based on a real person. Lancelot, Merlin, and the others are all just literary creations.

USincognito, I thought Helen of Troy was a travesty. Troy is far more faithful to the original story. The TV version didn't even have Patroclus!

Troy was an outstanding movie, in my opinion. The concern about the 'sex scenes' is vastly overrated. There are two scenes with Pitt's backside, and only the second is a sex scene (mostly implied) The interplay between the characters was outstanding. I was afraid this was going to be all...

GREAT MOVIE. I can count on one hand the number of movies I've seen more than once in the theatres, and "Troy" is about to join that list.

Gephardt looks like a fool for these criticisms. Just days after Dean was originally criticized for these statements, the country went to Terror Level Orange for over 2 weeks. Obviously, we are not safer. And don't forget the dozens of soldiers in Iraq that have since been killed. Gephardt...

It's hard to imagine how a minority that is less than 10% of the population and has 0% representation among elected officials and judges, is somehow able to persecute the vast majority of people through the legal institutions they set up. It boggles the mind, even for a conspiracy theory.

That was a senseless post. He has declared war on Israel without actually doing it? Arafat's whereabouts are well known. He can be arrested and put on trial by Israeli authorities. The only reason to kill him would be to satisfy bloodlust.

Because that is what just societies do with accused criminals?

These posts are interesting to read alongside the claims that our law was founded upon the Ten Commandments. How do you keep your heads from exploding? Arafat is not hiding anywhere. Why would you kill someone you could simply arrest and put on trial?

I think it would be nice if the Christians spent more time doing what Jesus told them to do rather than just focusing on what Moses told them not to do. However, I can see how it is easier to tell other people what they are doing is wrong than to make sure what you are doing is right.

You don't know that he used her to settle a score with his ex-wife; you're just speculating now. He's an atheist, so he has a legitimate reason to object to the California law that required his daughter to affirm a religious belief. Unless there was some kind of legal arrangement between...

That's a weird definition of cowardice! I think we can all agree that parents have a right to control the religious education of their children. Christians don't want their kids to be taught the 5 Pillars of Islam as fact, and Muslims don't want their kids to be taught that Jesus as the son of...

Michael Newdow may be a man on a misguided mission, but he is certainly not a coward. We should avoid being quick to insult those we disagree with.

9/11 happened because the US meddles, often violently, in the internal affairs of other countries. We overthrow the Iranian gov't and establish a dictator who will give us oil. He is overthrown in a mass revolt. Fearing the revolt will spread, we arm and train a petty dictator in Iraq when he...

Franken's research is well-documented. Calling someone a 'liar' is bad only if it's not true. O'Reilly, Hannity, Coulter, etc have every legal right to sue Franken for liberal if anything in his book is untrue. I especially appreciated Franken printing that little "inappropriate content" excerpt from...
