My schedule at work changed I work on Sundays now. Missing this thread is the worst part about it..
I wouldn't count on this being Putin's last term, but other than that I completely agree with your post.
Who is there that we can trust to step up and lead? George W. Bush, IMO, will go down in history alongside Ronald Reagan as one of the greatest presidents we've ever had. But who will follow him? Who is out there to pick up the gauntlet?
McCain? Allen? Giulianni? Who?
This is a serious task for me. I intend to spend some considerable time pondering this question.
Last week we learned that the rats had gone to Texas court to demand that Delay's name be kept on the Texas ballot even after he tried to dropout of the race.
So now we learn courtesy of alis link here, that Delay will now run again for Congress in Texas!!
This may go down as one of the dumbest moves ever by a political party if he should win and odds seems good that he will. Unbelievable.
Delay is running again?
Thanks. It now appears that the "spinning plates" are about to drop, given recent remarks by William Perry, Ash Carter, and Walter Mundanedale on the need to slap Kim Jong ILL around.
Glad to see ya, bummer about the schedule
#366, that is a good question.
Tritium is only required for a fusion (H bomb) reaction, not a fission (A bomb) reaction. The shaped charge is designed to push the fissionable material together in the precise way necessary to provide the critical mass for a nuclear explosion.
The two bombs used in WW2, Fat Man and Little Boy, worked on two different principles. One used shaped charges much as we use today, surrounding a sphere of fissionable material and creating an implosion to provide the nuclear fission. The other used a "rail gun" of fissionable material being explosively fired at another fissionable mass. The shaped charge mechanism apparently proved more workable.
A fusion device uses a fission bomb as a trigger and bleads off a tiny fraction of the energy in the first few pico seconds (literally referred to as "shakes," as in shakes of a lambs tale) to create a fusion reaction in another mass, such as tritium. An A bomb becomes the fuse for an H bomb.
Richardson has a bunch of reasons to continue to try and hold high office, that way he can probably stay out of harms way(the slammer) for all the misdeeds of his past.
#376, I had to leave to take a couple of phone calls(the curse of dialup),so I am really behind now. I was able to clean the kitchen and dishes while I was on the phone calls though,cannot do that freeping.
"Albright and Berger just want to defend Clinton and their own self-glorifying contributions to the Clinton legacy."
It is criminal the way the msm covers the clintons et al. But the truth is out there.... somewhere!
ASIA PACIFIC ECONOMIC COOPERATION (APEC) Both Jo and Kim indicated that North Korea would be willing to negotiate away its long-range missile capacity. With Albright and Kim toasting each other’s ...
But then the Clinton administration squandered the momentum. The pool of U.S. journalists came away from Pyongyang with their worst prejudices confirmed, Albright scrambled to defend her reticence on human rights issues during her trip, pundits lambasted Clinton for overreaching himself in Korea to save his foreign policy legacy from the flames engulfing the Middle East, and follow-up bilateral talks in Malaysia failed to yield an agreement on the missile issue. With the U.S. presidential elections in a procedural cul-de-sac and Clinton’s visit to Pyongyang postponed, U.S.-North Korea relations remain stalemated.
Albright’s visit to Pyongyang, while a step forward for U.S. policy, demonstrates how out of step the U.S. is in relation to many of its allies. Since the summer Britain, Germany, Canada, Belgium, and the Netherlands have all extended diplomatic recognition to Pyongyang, following earlier moves by Italy, Australia, and the Philippines.
And Albrights visit ends with their famous 'together toast'. I wonder if their emailing is thru E-Harmony!
#392, I am still laughing because it all fits so perfectly, and it is very funny to look back on in another time of you life where you were so much more serious.You could have the answer to BDS that all the move on.org crowd has pile drive that 500 cc of Thorazine. This thread is making me laugh so much I am choking.
#402, his columns in the last few years with few exceptions have been perfect for Bird cages, and fish wrapping.
I know it was discovered AFTER the Dubai Ports Deal was dropped...that somehow Schumer was connected somehow to Dubai...(at least that is what my faulty memory is telling me)...
which COULD be the link between he and Maddie.
#411, Priceless find.........
General Hayden. Hadley is Condi's replacement as Bush's Security Advisor.
#414, and his beeber may get stuned.......
The things you learn on FR!
