Now there is one of the seven deadly sins!

Curry, who copied the message from an ornament at a Christian bookstore, is now a rising sophomore at Heritage High School in Saginaw, Mich.

Shoulda stole it from Wikki-he'd be running for President as a Gopper.
"today we're all candy canes".

"The boy made the ornaments as part of a classroom project in which students develop and "sell" products. School officials told the youngster to remove the message, even though he received an A on the assignment."

I take this to mean that no response to any classroom assignment can contain any religious material whatsoever. Does anyone else find that obnoxious? The point of the establishment clause is to prevent governmental endorsements of religion. One person's religious expression within the boundaries of an assignment does not, to me, seem to be the type of coercion of other students by the government that this clause has been held to preclude.

I think Mark Spitz should get another gold medal for his whinnig about not getting a free invite to Beijing.

Breaking news!

The Palestinians just got a gold medal in the bomb-difusing event at the Olympics. Iran got the silver and Pakistan got bronze.

Man, just saw the video of the Hungary weightlifter break his arm. Nasty!

Ok...don't think it's a break but still nasty!

Andyuhenet -- are you Walt by any chance?

Andy--stay safe!

Lip--the same for your son.

I am not Walt. Am I Walt-esque or something?

Leeatwater-check your email soonest

No, Walt was a poster who was stationed in Afghanistan that hasn't been around for a while. I think CC was just wondering if you might be him.

Im Chevy Chase. and your not.

Hey Lip the closest I could've come to Kirkuk was during a trip to Baghdad in June. How does he like it over there? What branch is he in?

No, it's just that Walt (who had worked for one of the security firms over in Iraq and had then gone to work over in Kabul) hasn't been around DR for awhile. He was posting fairly regularly and then when he said he was leaving Afghanistan we didn't hear from him again. Thought maybe you were Walt and had come back to Kabul and were blogging under another name. No insult intended as Walt's a really nice guy.

If he's still here (in Kabul) I've probably run into him, I try to talk to all the contractors I can because you never know when you could use a connection at a place like this. If hes at HQ ISAF it would be a small world.

He's an MP in the army.

LIP - I can imagine that job isn't quite as cushy as the digs I have here at Kabul. It's great that we have people like him doing those jobs, as opposed to a comm guy like me who could stay on base the entire deployment if I wanted too. Good luck to him.

Sounds like th GOPpers are finally getting in to the election mood:

LITTLE ROCK The chairman of the Arkansas Democratic Party was hospitalized in critical condition Wednesday after an incident at the party headquarters, a party executive said. A television station reported that three shots were fired and that a man escaped the area in a blue truck.

doesn't say where Huckabee or his kid was at the time.

If the incident would have occured at the Little Rock Buffet, you can bet Pa and the kids were in on it.

CC

I heard from Walt. He got tired of the junior high discourse.

ON THE GYMNASTICS AT THE OLYMPICS:

If two of the Chinese women's team were 16 I'm Santa Claus.

They looked and sounded about 12 or 13. Of course, when you're from the host country birth certificates can (and probably were) falsified.

georgia bought McSame's support:
The Post's Matthew Mosk and Jeffrey H. Birnbaum reported today on Sen. John McCain's April phone call to the president of Georgia. McCain was prepped for the call by his top foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, whose lobbying firm signed a $200,000 contract with the Georgian government the day of the call.

Dam, Arcade. You surely do pull posts fast. Especially if I just posted. herm

I just had about six righties trapped in a corner and was pounding the shit out of the lot of 'em (on reproductive rights) when zap - it all disappears! herm

And turns up in a different position! Sorry. herm

Osteen update for those who just need to know the latest...

HOUSTON - Three airline passengers testified Wednesday they never saw or heard any indication that the wife of megachurch evangelist Joel Osteen

Continental Airlines flight attendant Sharon Brown claims in her lawsuit that Victoria Osteen yelled at her, threw her against a bathroom door and elbowed her when a spill on the armrest of her first-class seat wasn't quickly cleaned up. Brown claims she suffered physical and psychological injuries.

However, three first-class passengers on the plane testified Wednesday that they never saw or heard anything to indicate that Victoria Osteen assaulted Brown before the start of the flight from Houston to Vail, Colo.

Damn, herm, you sure do bitch fast.

BUSH SENDS RICE TO GEORGIA

Posted by sitdown

Well, I guess they eat a lot of rice in Georgia, don't they?

Too bad it's not Bush that went to Georgia:

Looks like Bush is an defeatocrat surrender monkey in Iraqa too:

American soldiers will withdraw from cities across Iraq next summer and all US combat troops will leave the country within three years, provided the violence remains low, under the terms of a draft agreement with the Iraqi Government.

In one of the most detailed insights yet into the content of the deal, Hoshyar Zebari, the Iraqi Foreign Minister, has also told The Times that the US military would be barred from unilaterally mounting attacks inside Iraq from next year.

In addition, the power of arrest for US soldiers would be curbed by the need to hand over any detainee to a new, US-Iraqi committee. Troops would require the green light from this joint command before conducting any operation.

President Bush today refuted allegations he doesn't know Shi'a from Sunnis:

Of course I do he said, one's little Indiana Jones, and one's married to Woody Allen.

CC

I heard from Walt. He got tired of the junior high discourse.

That's too bad 'cause I enjoyed talking with him. I don't blame him for getting tired of it though because he was always getting beat up on here with everyone calling him a mercenary and a hired gun. Walt did his time in the military so let him be. Besides, he had interesting stories about what was going on over there. oh well.

About 3 of those little girl gymnasts were age 12 -- at the max. Olympic rules require they be no younger than 16. These kids were provded passports for proof of age and guess who provided them -- the Chinese government. Can't you tell a kid's age by whether or not they have their wisdom teeth or not? I'm not sure.

Those girls on the Chinese gymnastics team were certified by the government to be of legal age for competition. I mean the Chinese government! you can't question authority and honesty like that.(or you face prison or deportation)

Update on the Name the Gerbils contest scheduled for the weekend from noon eastern time Saturday till noon Monday. Some judges have excepted their roles and I am waiting to hear from possibly more. The problem seems to be qualifications. They were required to certify that they are posters (easy), and humans-still waiting on that part.

Get you typing fingers warmed up and submit your choices of names(2). RCADE should after all know his bosses names.

Keith:
Rove and Snow-both are rodents and good only for spinning things.

Thar be judges!!!

To make the selection of you offerings, the following judges are on board

BRIWO-Of The Free World Radio Network

LeeAtwater-A very high seniority member and frequent poster

The DR's very own Satyr, the irrepressible GOATMAN who is at the moment somewhere in the water on a platform

Still deciding if the "Human" tag is appropriate and yet to be heard from REVDARKO. Now this man shows the ability to pick names and is another of thr Free World Radio Network with the "Dark Side"

The contest will open Saturday at noon.

The usual "Describe the following...will as usual be there for your maligning pleasure.

Keith, why do you talk so much?

AGENT_Z-Old habits are hard to break.

Everything can be broken Keith, it's a matter of will.

Why?--Quite happy as is-have a nice year1
