Yes you are right.  I have been learning Spanish lately and I transliterated a mixture of the Latin word for for always "semper" and the Spanish word for always "siempre" and came up with "siemper".  I had expected learning Spanish to be easier than it turned out to be and sometimes my spelling gets overwelmed by it.

Hi lswote,

I don't usually spell in Latin, but my English spelling has suffered tremendously since I learned Spanish. My Spanish spelling is great, however. )))

Me too Dave!

I have to laugh whenever I hear that ridiculous crap. Why don't the anti-war demonstrators ask the troops if they think they are being supported by their protests. ROTFLMGDAOTNTPIMGDP!

Ask them! The troops will tell you what they think of your phoney "support".

Hey Ray,

Last night when I was about to fall asleep, an idea came to me. Since these anti-American, errr...I mean anti-war protesters have the right to free speech, lets help them do it in an orderly manner, without causing civil disobedience, breaking laws, and taxing our police departments. I believe that they should be required to rent sports arenas, such as football stadiums, to stage their protests. They will have the opportunity for great camera coverage and get big scoreboard screen playback for instant self-gratification. Also they will pay the cops for their off-duty stadium security detail time. This would also protect them from being run over in the streets by cars, trucks, and SUV's driven by us warmongers. ;o)))

Maybe we can save them a few bucks. Camp Pendleton has plenty of available space and I'm sure there are plenty of off duty marines on base who would be overjoyed to provide "security" on a volunteer basis. The protesters could march around the parade grounds with their idiotic signs that say "No Blood for Oil"... ROTFLMAOTNTPIMGDP!

Hi Ray,

That would also allow the soldiers another form of PT. ;o))) My original idea was internment camps, but I have become 'soft' as the war is winding down.

I'm not Anti-war as Hum says. War can be a good thing for
the right reasons. I will say I'm Anti-BUSH(s).

I'm very happy for the people of Iraq, I have Iraqi friends
and they are happy as well.
It's just that Mr. Bush has multiple agendas two of which
is OIL and avoidance of our economic problems at home.
That is a FACT.
I have a couple of Anti-war Liberals at my work and I have
to listen to their crap all day.

BUT there is and can be a middle road here.
It doesn't have to be Anti-war or Pro-war only.
There can be a middle ground.

I know most of the posters here are middle aged white good
ole' Americans...YEEEE HAWWWW !!!!!! I'm just not one of them.
BUT I do share the common interest here of relationships with
Filipina's and Philipino Culture.

If it was up to the majority of our Republican  Politicians
there would be little or no Immigration to the US by
ASIANS.

Once again, I'm glad Saddam is gone, I support our troops,
I hope North Koreans can be freed next. I just don't like
Mr. Bush never have never will, He reminds me of a deer
stuck in a set of head lights and I find him very disingenuine.

Things to think about:

1.) War is entertaining

2.) War is great for the Media. Think of all the increased    viewership and therefore advertising Revenue $$$

3.) The US has a new 21,000 pound bomb capable of
creating 1,500 new Terrorist with a single blast.

4.) Freedom Toast? Freedom Fries?, what next Freedom Kissing?
LOL

"It's all about oil"

Correction: You may "think" that it's about oil, but that doesn't make it a "FACT". It's still only your opinion...

What is wrong with it being about oil?

Oil is power and in the wrong hands headaches.

Don't seem to complicated.

... in response to The Big Liberal Lie, posted by Ray on Apr 18, 2003

No It is YOUR Opinion that it is only my opinion.
It is a FACT that it is about oil. Anyone with
2 working eyes and 2 working ears can see and hear that it
IS in fact about oil. The key here is, it is not ONLY
about oil.
I never said it is "only" or "all" about oil so please do
not put words in my mouth.
It is about other things as well.

Is it about?

Finishing what his father did not? Yes
Terrorism? Yes
World stability? Yes
Political Gain? Yes
Peace in the Middle East? Yes
A show of force to the world that we are #1 and we are in control? You bet and
we are.
Eliminating one of the "axix of evils"? Yep
Protecting America's Oil interest? Yes again.

Agreed , but, how is it about Oil, as in , we are going to go over to iraq and control the oil, How are we going to control the oil, if we wanted to take over the oil fields, we had control of those in 91?, just exactly how do you define our "oil interests"..........iraq as a supplier of oil which we purchase? or........taking over the oil fields?
