The ultimate goal is a world wide Islamic caliphate under sharia law and that is not something that fits with western style democracy.

Uh, Turkey comes to mind. As to the ultimate pipe dream you talk about; that ended FOREVER with the fall of the Ottoman empire.

Many points of view coexist here. They are debated, analyzed, cussed, and discussed. Talking points that are repeated without cite by relatively fresh participants tend to have mountains of scorn and disdain heaped upon them.

Fox and Friends in the morning had Trent Lott so while I channel surfed AWAY from lott, I saw a CNN somebody saying bush lost his chance to talk to sheehan.

This keeps in line with the fact the left NEVER wanted sheehan to meet with president bush, now they must be afraid he would actually do it and come out as the good guy again.

putting it in News, Activism without any disclaimer as to authencity is uncalled for

It is from scrappleface. That should be disclaimer enough. ;o)

I am new to the FR. I have not posted a general post as of yet. All of you need to be aware of something:

This morning my daughter was on the net researching Pres Bush on the Wikipedia site, a free encyclopedia websit that anyone can edit. We found under the Bush page, a stop sign and statement that says "NEUTRALITY DISPUTED". It just lists basic facts about the president. I noticed no such statement under his copredessesors. I was rather concerned since alot of kids use this site. When you google a topic, Wikipedia gives many results.

I felt that this is such a shame.

Although I too love the letter - putting it in News, Activism without any disclaimer as to authencity is uncalled for.

I did not claim it was autherntic. I put this in the comment section, post 1

"Written by Scott Ott of Scrappleface"

Doesn't that count as a disclaimer?

[mhking]

Thanks for your input, Kreskin, but no one asked you...

Troll....

[golfboy]

To think, I was expecting Scrappleface's usual humorous tint and I got chill bumps instead. Awesome response.

Seconded!

[Lekker 1]

And that is what is known as....reality

Uh with all due respect to your gazing into the future, I would hesitate in calling a prediction "reality" unless your name is Jeanne Dixon.

"..a country run by a strong man, like Saddam, which is why he maintained power for so long in the first place- because it was the only way to actually run the country. Or a group of strong men - military or mullahs."

A prejudice liberal..imagine that.

[oldfarmer]

The running story on the news networks should be the valiant efforts of our troops -- the merchants of mercy who export freedom and import honor. They trade their own lives for the sake of others.

I knew it was fake when reached this sentence. The president would never use such a stupid metaphor.

Just because iyamspartakus has a spelling problem and airs a contrary view I don't think s/he should be zotted. Does this site not adhere to the Americans with Disabilities or Stupidity law? Have we become so elitist that opposing opinions are Zottable offenses?

There was just on Fox some guy from one of (former) Russia's Stans who was saying that even tho they have a 40-44% Muslim population, they have a market economy. So, iyamspartakus might be wrong. S/he made me think and make mental notes. That is good.

If all we are to see here (FR) is the party line, then FR will no longer be the place for intelligent discussion, and, yes, learning.

For the record, I disagree with iyamspartakus, but I did learn something. (Now, if I were a Dem, I could probably justify a Nazi expletive hurled your way, but I'm not, and I'm German and getting pretty darned tired of the overuse of that epitaph! After a while, it looses its effectiveness thu miss-use)

[Bahbah]

Wow. I am speechless.

[A.A. Cunningham]

putting it in News, Activism without any disclaimer as to authencity is uncalled for.

Most people with at least room temperature IQs recognize Scrappleface as a source of satire. Too bad you fall well short of being one of them.

Get a grip -

Indeed.

[L98Fiero]

Sounds like wishful thinking. Maybe your dreams will come true. Unlike you, I hope not.

[Natty Boh III]

Huh. And all this time I thought her son died because the CIA screwed up and convinced us all that Iraq had WMDs.
