Where are the British air craft carriers ???????

go allen!

???? if we do get hard with a nuclear bomb and mass causalities take place - we should go into Pakistan and everywhere else and wipe out the termites terrorists from the face of the earth - The President by that time would have declared Martial law and any goes per the President then.

Republican Conspiracy to win the elections!

how did she get across the border????? does she has a visa????

was one named Hillary?

it is not over yet - I am from Hagerstown and I love the weather back there- now I am in Oklahoma - and spring is exciting for us with the twisters - read the Herald Mail on line ever day

Home Grown = Pakistan, North Korea, etc.

Israel can make Nuke zone out of both Syria and Iran - if they attack Israel

What Syria and Iran forget - Israel has the NUKE OPTION

The clinic I think the boy is going to - has an excellent cure rate for many cancer types - with the chemo - he has a worse chance of survival than the natural treatment

The next big showdown in World History with be the USA vs. China - which will lead to the old game called "Blink"

resulting in almost nuclear confrontation

Probably true except they deny

Our next big conflict showdown will be with CHina - count on it!

They are begging for help here in Ok - where did she come up with her numbers?
