    I have been following the latest problems in the Middle East and I've become concerned about the media's portrayal of the current events. On the plus side, I feel they are shooting themselves in the foot by showing their support for Arafat and his scum. I know, they do their best to hide their true feelings, but look between the lines. Take a few moments, hold your breath and listen to Christine Amonpour's reports (CNN) and you will no doubt hear her bias filter through. Notice that not too many democrates have expressed there feelings about the situation. They want...

He had nothing but kind words for the Cuban community in his district. Has he always expressed this kindness to the Cubans or did he take a poll and find out that his chances for re-election have hit a big bump in the road??

    I'm not sure of the exact time and city but there was a situation in, I beleive Cincinati, when the city counsel passed a law requiring registration of all privately owned hanguns in the city. They told everyone that there was no need for anyone to fear this new requirement. There were no plans for future confiscation. So they said. At some time later, the counsel decided to ban a certain type of firearm, I beleive the so called "Saturday Night Special". Where did they start? They went to the database created during the handgun registration process to find the ...
