Well, just about everyone captures data these days. Fox has as much right as anyone to do it I guess. While they are certainly taking numbers and blocking calls, that doesn’t necessarily indicate they are building long term data. It might and it might not. As a general rule, I do not approve of data gathering.

I dislike the idea of any building of political dossiers. It's like the old Soviet police states or the Nazis. I don't like the idea of employers looking at a young person's favorite candidates and that information following them through their lives, never knowing that this information is collected and disseminated.

I didn’t notice about Waziristan. I do think we walk a fine line with Pakistan though. The current guy’s rule seems to be becoming iffy. I think we could do a lot worse.

Harboring our worst enemies, a nuclear Islamic state, poor, desperate, radical, the worst nuclear weapons proliferation state, rewards its top proliferating scientist openly, refuses to prosecute him. Under a dictator but one who is so amazingly weak he can't be a real ally or control his own country. My goodness, it's like the poor helpless Saudi royals, isn't it? Absolute dictators ruling another police state under sharia and yet they are utterly helpless.

Poor helpless totalitarian sharia/Nazi dictators. I really do feel sorry for them. If only they dared to help us, the poor helpless things.

Doesn't that strike you as a rather strange explanation? BTW, the Pakis are supplying technical assistance and materials for the Saudi nuclear weapons program. That is the Islamic nuke program that no one wants to talk about. And the Saudis should not have nuclear weapons either, given how many of them attack our troops in Iraq and the 15 Saudis in the 19 9/11 attackers.

There are a lot of blatant lies and gross falsehoods told to protect certain relationships and certain privileges. Much of what we are told about the Saudis and the Pakis is a complete fiction.

If someone wishes to compare Iraq to Vietnam, then the Saudis and the Pakis are Laos and Cambodia. Setting up certain safe provinces which harbor our enemy and placing them off-limits is, as Ron Paul says, the way to lose yet another post-WW II war. Declaring war and cleaning out the entire mess at once would solve these problems. That is, if we really are serious and not just conducting a ordinary guns-and-butter war.

Do you remember what replacing the leadership of Iran cost us thirty years ago? Why are you so convinced that turning Saudi Arabia upside down would turn out differently. 60% of the populace are radical Wahabbi adherants. Who would the next leaders be and why are your sure they’d be any better?

If there’s a nuclear program going on there I’m unaware of it. If so though, I do not approve and would want the site taken out just like I would Iran’s.
