Pretty simple dove. Sodom had WMDs, Sodom hates the Jews, the Jews are our allies which makes Sodom our enemy also. Had he hit the Jedws with a WMD, you have WWIII, and I don't think you can comprehend what that entails. what seems to be the part you don't get? You need to look up what it takes to be a true ally and not a pansy.

Ok, you said there were no white slaves, there were........now you bring up you dont need a history lesson. PNGkid is throwing facts as I do to support my statements. The history is history, it cannot be changed, BUT we can learn from it. In order to learn from it, you have to know it and understand it! About 40 messages ago I gave my spill on the things I thought Bush did well. I have to agree, Homeland security is one of the best things he's done. Although I did pose the question about if white people had been slaves...earlier than that, I posted that there were white people that were indentured. I believe there is a slight difference in the two. My eternal thanks to you and kid for "learning" me about slavery with all of your facts. Sadly, many facts have never been published in books, but as long as America was able to prosper and the select few were able to become profiteers at the expense and maltreatment/murder of others...hey, it's all good. I don't know what his legacy will be. Maybe that he rid the world of hussein, but at what expense? 9/11 was a test that no one could have truly been ready for. I think that we had no other choice than to go after binladen and it was the right thing to do, but I think that invading Iraq was not. I mean, in the history books, what will be said about why we invaded Iraq besides that hussein was responsible for some horrific atrocities. I just wish that he would have had the ability to either realize that he made a mistake (and not just with Iraq) and apologize for that particular decision. How about we knew he had WMDs, he had UN resolutions to answer to, he had to let our weapons inspectors see if he was indeed hiding anything (we know he was, what do you think he did, kissed those 250,000 Kurds to death?). Our inspectors were getting close and he ordered them at gun point to leave, which they did. Do you think he got rid of those weapons during that time? Hmmmmm. Sadaam Insane had scud (dud) missiles to deliver his explosives. I, to this day, don't know how we kept the Jews from all out attacking him. We kept them at bay by protecting them with our patriot anti-missile defense system. Some scuds still got through and did some damage and killed some people. Do you realize the magnitude of the situation, had he been able to hit the Jews with a WMD?????? Anyone here that doesn't think Sadaam Insane had WMDs is a fool. BTW, where were you when all of this was taking place....under a rock? One more thing. Americans did not execute Sadaam Insane. We turned him over to the Iraqis and they let him drop. I still love what the soldiers said to Insane when they found him....''Greeting from President Bush!"

Gabe, good luck to your Lakers. I think they will have to step it up a notch for Denver. As far as I know, Denver is healthy and rested.

Copy/paste works fine for me.

I had a litle extra money this week. I sent some to LA trying to buy the Rockets a bucket, but to no avail. > I think the Lakers played a very average game (Gasol had a good one though). My Rockets couldn't hit a bull in the arse with a bass fiddle. They also made some of the stupidest passes I have ever seen. I'd pull Artest and insert Wafer. Battier couldn't hit a three. Scola couldn't hit and probably should have fouled out. Still love my Rockets, but they should have played much better than they did. They should have gotten beat by 40 again. That's why I say the Lakers played average. I'll give the Lakers credit for holding off a scrappy Rockets squad and winning in seven games. Hey, the Astros beat Chicago today!!!

What has he ''fixed''? Who do you think elected him president, the black vote? Dream on dude. He is my president, and as my president, I expect him to be truthful to me. From day one he has denounced Bush's policies and blamed him for the economic downturn, plus attempting to have him criminally charged for Gitmo. When someone acts as if they truly believe in one thing, then do an about-face, I question the integrity of the individual. Throwing trillions of dollars at the automakers and Wells Fargo hasn't helped. Where is that money now? Did it just disappear? That money did belong to you and me once. You are the racist. You can't discuss anything about Obama without bringing up his race. Let him stand on his own as a man....I am.

I've got an old Beatles album that sounds better than smitty. Coop, do your stuff. What a waste of bandwidth.

Quit agreeing with me, that is scary :D My bad. I'll be more careful. After Kobe and Gasol, the one player that scares me is Farmar. If the Lakers are down and he is in there, he can flat out hit those 3s and erase a deficit real quick, especially if the Lakers get a stop. I'd take him on my team anyday. My Rockets are doing something not many other teams could do without their stars, and that's win against arguably the best team in the west. Let the Lakers lose Kobe, Denver lose Carmelo, Cleveland lose LeBron, Miami lose Wade.....I don't think these teams could win without them.

Sorry guys. It seems we can't talk current affairs or 'recent' history without going back hundreds of years to serve other's agendas. I just decided to go back thousands. tvc, hippy, and bandkid (is he just a kid?) make excellent points and are well rounded in their knowledge. I struggle at times with memory loss. I'll just jump in there when I see fit.

tvc's, bandkid's, and hippy's posts covered most of this. I am only interested in if you are inferring that Cleopatra was black. If so, I wonder if they were slave owners? Took a long time and lots of people to build all those pyramids.

Anyway, she's about as truthful as Cheney...... Well then that makes it ok, huh? When does one stand on one's own two feet and stop pointing fingers? She has gotten herself into the same place as Obama....between a rock and a hard place. Bush's poilicies are looking better all the time. Maybe now, the ''fickle finger of fate'' will be pointed in the right direction.

Isn't that really a shame? I mean, instead of David slaying Goliath, it reads Goliath forgot to duck. Go Rockets!!

Here's a link to the 4A format... [Hidden Content] Keep it going Dogs!!!

Final.... Ned 15 C.E. King 3 Way to go Dogs!!!! Nederland will play Montgomery or San Marcos

Amazing, so many people wrote the Rockets off. Even predicting sweeps from several people. Then Yao went down and it looked like lights out, but I knew how well these guys can play. Let's see how well they do in LA this time knowing that ''this is it''....there is no coming back to Houston. I will actually get to watch this one. Win or lose, I will be on here talking my Rockets up. This should be the top story in sports right now..... how well the Rockets are playing the Lakers without their stars. What say ye, old great sports writers? ;D

Unbelievable! But as I think about the history of this country, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised of this type of callous attitude towards human beings. Especially since they had nothing to do with the attacks in NY. You need prayer; and real bad. Human beings?? I pray everyday that the world be rid of scum like this. I rejoice in their removal. It is what has to be done and a softy can't get the job done. I pray for you that their evil deeds never strike you or your loved ones. Are the Kurds human beings? How about Afghan women? How about Daniel Pearl, Nick Berg, Paul Johnson, and that Korean guy??

Looks as if there will be a game 7. Magic up by 8 with 49 seconds left. I like 7 game series.

The best thing Bush did was keep this country from being attacked again. I love how Sadaam Insane's two sons...udoo and poo poo were killed in a fire fight. They looked nothing like they did when alive. Sadaam looked appropriate with a noose around his neck. Good for him. The Taliban learned what a daisy cutter is and how well it can implode a mountain. Obama Bin Laden is probably dead. We haven't seen any ''in your face'' propaganda from him lately. I hope he died of kidney failure. I hear it's pretty painful. Or maybe he's under tons of rock in Afghanistan. Zarkawi (sp.) is dead too. Woo Hoo!!! I guess now that someone is going to tell me how shameful I should feel about my attitude, and how I should be more politically correct and not hurt anyone's feelings. Nope. I'm glad Bush was president for 9/11. Otherwise we would be apologizing to the Saudis for having two skyscrapers in their way.

i hide from no one. Too late for me to be up. Some of us have real jobs. I didn't see any Laker fans on here after the game 4 except for Buc2010, and he at least gave kudos. My Rockets got the snot beat out of them, which is at least being able to man up about it. At least I haven't been ridiculous and predicted TWO sweeps. Good, you can come read my 150 emails a day, listen to 10 voicemails, design the A section of the paper and cover baseball playoffs LOL. I hate emails, most of them are stupid jokes. Voicemails should only be use for important stuff, not just to say "call me''. I applaud the last two. It was a joke anyway. Lighten up dude. I like how you excerpted my post to one sentence. Care to address the last statement in that post?

First game this season that the Lakers trailed from start to finish!!!!! and without YAO!!!!!! Someone already mentioned their 22 game streak last year. Yao played in like the first 8 games of the streak and then got hurt. Best 2 out of 3 now. Until my team is eliminated, I stick with them. Go Rockets!!!!!

I have a certificate that even Nederland would hire me today. I chose to be where I am. Was not meant to be snide. Once again, reading this entire post about the bond and the attacks on Smitty by NISD people, I am SO glad I am not there..... ;D Yep, I was talking about our terrible loss the other day. Where are you now that you don't even care to mention it?

That one will make all the NBA highlight reels!!! I'm so glad I watched that game!!! No one gave the Rockets a chance except the few fans on here. ;D This game proved that you don't have to have superstars to win!!! Just play as a team, hit your shots, and rebound!!! That Brooks...what a player!!!

Sounds like a case of sour grapes to me. Maybe you applied and were turned down or weren't up to snuff. I had friends in the NISD 20 years ago, so keep your snide comments to yourself.

About time you showed up Soulja. ;D These Laker fans think the Lakers are some kind of gods or something. : Since Yao joined the Rockets, the Lakers have never won when Yao was out of the lineup....at least that's what I thought I read in a caption after the game. Battier and Brooks tore them a new one!!! Go Rockets!!!
