Has America ever captured the leader of a foreign country that was our enemy before? Revolutionary War: Nope. 1812 War with Canada: Nope.Spanish/American War: Nope.World War One: Nope.World War Two, Germany: Nope.World War Two, Italy: Nope.World War Two, Japan: Close, but I don't think we actually took the Emperor into custody.Vietnam War: Nope. This is an unprecedented event. Our behavior will be scrutinized. I have no doubt we will behave honorably -- it is our way -- but this is a precendent-setting event and will probably be the model for all other countries we invade, should the need arise. That...

He was ripping! He's better than he has ever been before!

A stock broker, on his way home from work in New York City, came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this seems much worse than usual.He notices a police officer walking beween the lines of stopped cars, so he rolls down his window and asks, "Officer, what's the hold up?"The officer replies, "Hillary Clinton is depressed, so she stopped her motorcade and is threatening to douse herself in gasoline and set herself on fire.

LOS ANGELES -- Congratulations, Bud Selig, you're off the hook for the All-Star Game tie. The baseball commissioner is looking like Winston Churchill next to the six commissioners responsible for concocting a system that prevented the No. 1 team in college football from playing in the national championship game. "The polls are clear," USC coach Pete Carroll said. "There's not even a question as to who the No. 1 team in the country is." The Trojans are No. 1, but they will play in the Rose Bowl against No. 4 Michigan. No. 2 LSU and No. 3 Oklahoma will play...

I'm in a debate on another forum. If I'm anticipating correctly, I need some on-line pictures from left-wing rallies in the U.S. where protesters had signs that equated the Star of David to the swastika or carried a mock Israeli flag with a swastika in place of the Star of David.

Rush has spent the last several minutes likening Bush to Nixon. Nixon gave us OSHA and the EPA. Bush is giving us Prescription Medicine benefits for seniors.

On each episode a team of five heterosexual males will do a "makeover" on one homosexual man. Preview screenings of the pilot showed the five guys uncomfortably shuffling around the menswear section at Wal-Mart picking out trousers for a guy named Maurice, who they refused to take with them. The men get frustrated after about 30 seconds...

Apologies for the vanity post. But I want to rant a bit.In the past few months, ping lists have proliferated to the point of annoyance. And it is especially irksome to find oneself on a list without having requested inclusion. There's a word for this: .Ponder this question, Chester: Did I ask to be on your #%&@ing ping list? No? Well, then. Draw the logical conclusion. If I wish to be on your ping list, rest assured you'll be the first to know. But while you wait with bated breath for my entreaty to be a party to your wisdom,...
