The Iraqis have an evil chief and they do not follow best societal practices, so we have a moral obligation to remove their chief and force on them best societal practices. Of course we know what the best societal practices are because we are the best people. That should be obvious from the facts that we possess the most powerful and most numerous weapons and we have the greatest ability and the greatest propensity to destroy civilization and the human race, either economically or militarily." .
Sask. woman wins legal battle against drug dealer
Look soon to seeing"tougher"legislation being passed regarding alcohol. Ritalin use is up not only in kids but adults as they found out it could be snorted like cocaine. Same has been found to be true for asthma inhalers. Legal drugs are just as dangerous as illegal ones. So if you are serious about a"tough on drugs'legislation,then it needs to go after the "legal" dealers also. .
King Liberal..with every passing day...
These questions surface in the wake of her victories in New York-New Jersey-Massachusetts and in California-Arizona and her defeats everywhere else except in her former native state of Arkansas and its two next-door neighbors, Tennessee and Oklahoma. In the first flush of her California victory, it seemed Clinton had a clear path to the nomination. But the picture looks different on closer examination a day later. While she was winning the dwellings of America's elite, Obama was sweeping everyplace else - Utah, Idaho, Minnesota, Illinois, North Dakota, Kansas and Colorado, many of them states with virtually no black population. And his success in Missouri, Alabama and Georgia show that he continues to dominate Southern states with their large minority populations. Why is Clinton doing so poorly in the heartland? There, away from the liberal media and establishment bias and from the coastal immigrant and Latino concentrations, she seems at a loss.
BIG UNIT MAKING PROGRESS (2:23 p.m. ET)
This year second baseman Jeff Kent played the role of prickly judge Simon Cowell and Juan Pierre played the role of judge Randy Jackson. Nomar Garciaparra was the event's host, in essence taking the role of Ryan Seacrest.
As of Thursday afternoon, no winner was announced, though Kuroda's performance was memorable.
Kuroda is scheduled to start for the Dodgers for the first time on Friday against the Braves in Orlando, Fla. Though he is a major-league rookie, Kuroda, 32, pitched 11 seasons for the Hiroshima Carp in Japan.
"There's a curiosity for someone who is brand new but in a sense established too," Torre said. "It's something you want to see for yourself. Everything that I've heard about him is that he really competes well."

BREWERS EYE IMPROVED DEFENSE (1:02 p.m.
Florida down. Giuliani, too?
Rudy's? Surprisingly extensive, and all of them right under the noses of Manhattan liberals who still resent him for his dexterity. That nonsense about incest was shameless oppo crap (and quite expensive, I understand). The libels about his multiply felonious lobbying? Straight out of Hillary's shop, brought to you by CNN care of Bloomberg—-that's the established trapline. The stuff about his billing the City for his "affair"? Impossible. Not possible. Not billable, not voluntary. In every case the press was either too tendentious or too utterly broken to perform even the rudiments of Journalism 101. They dislike Rudy; they distrust Romney; they like McCain; they love Hillary. Still, how ludicrous to base a campaign on Rudy's 9/11 performance, as if one cent should have been spent on media buys to tell the American People what they already knew searingly.
Interview With Gina Khan - Part 1
She is a British Muslim and has spoken out in the past about the problems she and her community faces from extreme Islamists. Described as "a very brave woman" in an article for the London Times, Gina will, over the coming days, be stating her experience to the Westminster Journal as a British Muslim and calling out, especially to the British Government, for help in solving the Islamist problem the West now experiences from within. This is the first of two parts of the interview.
Q: So, Gina, tell us a little about yourself, your background and your motivations:
I'm a British Asian Woman from a Pakistani ethnic background; a Sunni Muslim and a lone parent. I grew up in Birmingham in the English Midlands - in an area with a preponderance of Muslims.
Today the rhetoric you hear from extreme Islamists or the stories you read in British papers about honour killings or forced marriages doesn't shock me or many others at grassroots level.
Favre's game has taken Packers to new level
The Green Bay Packers might not be one win from Super Bowl XLII if the Brett Favre of recent seasons had resurfaced in last Saturday's 42-20 victory over Seattle. That Favre could very well have reared his turnover-prone head while pressing to erase an early 14-0 deficit. After the game, he admitted his historical M.O. has been to "try to get it all back right now" when falling behind. .moreTeamsDiv { position:relative; float:right; padding-right:10px; } .moreTeamsHdr { background-image:url(/fe/img/Story/moreTeamsOn_header.gif); background-repeat:repeat-x; background-position:top; height:35px; color:#000000; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12px; padding-top:4px; padding-left:4px; font-weight:bold; } .moreTeamsLinks a:link, .moreTeamsLinks a:visited { color:#1266a4; text-decoration:none; padding-top:4px; padding-left:4px; padding-right:4px; padding-bottom:4px; } .moreTeamsLinks a:hover { text-decoration:underline; } .moreTeamLinks { font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-decoration:none; } .storyPoll { padding-bottom: 5px; float:right; } .
Under the Hood With Knight Rider 2.0: Trans Am vs. Ford Mustang ...
Then we brought in a prop maker to create side skirts and spoilers out of wood, smooth them out, and sent them to a fiberglass shop to make molds. Once the parts are formed from those molds, we finish them and attach them to the car." One of the cooler features of the Mustang KITT is air-ride suspension, which allows its driver to lower the car's ride height when the vehicle morphs from Hero to Attack mode. "When it goes on the offensive, it gets slammed to the ground," Moser chuckles. Very aggressive, indeed. There will be three models used in filming: Hero (essentially a stock GT500KR); Attack (the tricked-out model); and Remote Control (operated via RC, obviously). "All of the ‘transforming' will be done through CGI animation like in the Transformers movie," Moser admits. (Click here for behind-the-scenes digital wizardry from this summer's blockbuster flick.) For all you Trans Am holdouts, Mustang droolers and Hasselhoff haters, here's the very first look at all of the new KITT's gee-whiz specs and functionality, matched up to the original to determine which is better equipped for Hollywood crime-fighting.
Keeping up with Clinton
The crowd is going wild. 10:54 a.m.: Traffic is light with hardly any traffic congestion. About to turn onto 44 from 77. Traffic is only in the right-hand lane. Parked cars lining curb from 44 to the fairgrounds, wherever you could park a car, someone has. Line of people is stretched around the perimeter of the parking lot. 10:55 a.m.: Parking at the fairgrounds is almost full and cars are being diverted to the parking lot at Fairgrounds Field. The line of people waiting to get in to the fairgrounds extends from the Central Pavilion into the main parking lot. It snakes through two aisles of the parking lot and into a third. 10:56 a.m.: Local dignitaries have been allowed inside the pavilion and the gates have opened to the public. People have been trickling inside for about 20 minutes.
