RE: What really unites the United States of America these days?

You can say that again........

RE: What really unites the United States of America these days?

Me thinks, I read the foul of jealousy.....Oh were does the poster pontificate from......yea course, I should have known.....that Emerald Island of shrank personages.....the Island of blarney stone affection.....and serpant's guile (Saint Patrick)......of loyalty lack in last great war......and of Libyan affinity with modern fear making (IRA training in Libyan training camps)........

Just a little Shakespearan reflection on the Great country of Ireland. So much for culture, history and heritage. Jwl you wish to take it from here?

But hey we will not hold it against you. We have large numbers of Irish here in the US. I always wonder why they immigrated here. When they had all of the world to go to. After reading CS Irish, I think that I know the why.

RE: What really unites the United States of America these days?

I cannot add word to that as much I want too! Anytime someone says "sunggled" and "Dolly Parton" in the same paragraph, it does not get any better.

RE: What really unites the United States of America these days?

I lived 26 years on Michigan. A lot of good people in the state.
They all get covered ever winter with a lot of snow. If you like lakes and water. Michigan has it. 3 Great Lake on outside. And 10,000 lakes on the inside. Mainly it is one big coastline with some pine trees.

The rural area are the Upper Penn.....which is mighty cold....some have said frigid even....but I forget her name now. Intense prolonged temperatures below 0 degrees cause memory lose, you know.

And the northern part of the lower Penn.

And the ultimate Michigan joke is?

Q) How can you tell a Michiganer?

A) He is the person looking at his/her left hand for driving direction.

Some explanation is needed here, for Atwo. The lower Penn of Michigan is shaped in the form of hand....actually of a hand in mitten. Because it so cold there in the winter, they even put a mitten on the state.

RE: What really unites the United States of America these days?

Each his own. But Leigh tell him about Tennesse. Please before he makes this decision. Just mention Dolly Partin and Gatlinsburg to him.

RE: What really unites the United States of America these days?

Nebraska?

Atwo, You are smart guy. Why retire in a state that is so flat you can roll a bowling ball from one side to the other side down the middle of the interstate?

RE: What really unites the United States of America these days?

How soon can you get it done? Can we expedite this? Rush it along in some way? Plant nuclear devices into the San Andreas fault line to jar the State loose from the rest of the country?

Anything here to help, Juan...........

Go USA Go USA Go USA......

Yes and we have to give the Japanese Women's National Team credit for a well played match and stunning goal tending at the end. Twice they came back from being a goal down to tie and then to win.

That doesnot happen much in advanced level play.

Congrats Japan!

RE: Is Casey Anthony guilty?

Not to mention the 1m Dollar interviews offers that Casey Anthony is getting now.

The interveiw broker that tried to make the Jerry Springer interview happen. And failed. Just put together his own production company to offer Casey Anthony 1m for a interview. The 1m coming from 'unnamed investors'. He says it is a 'done deal'.

Casey Anthony's attoreny is saying no such deal has been done.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm....can this get any uglier?

RE: United Nations Shock!!The UN Goes Political Incorrect!!

That is such a interesting concept at this point. Just let the world biggest communist country in world be the policeman on the block.

The US has done it since the end of WWII. We seem to have as many brush fire wars today as ever. So?

We let the Chinese do it for a time. Image the Chinese in Somolia or Iraq? The days of mission monitoring by JAG and 48 hour of watching a target prior to close air support strikes are over with.

And you thought GITMO was bad?

When the Chinese have those Islamic detainee digging tunnels for rare earth metals...there will be human outcry like world has never heard.

RE: Eric Cantor is embarrassing my state

We can place the band on the Abram's back and dance on the turret. Just don't fall thru the hatch. And if you want some trees or telephone poles removed.....easy enough done.

When we drive down Main street of your home town......music playing and turret dancing......at 3 AM.....no stopping for traffic lights and a Chinese fire drill every 5th song.

RE: Obama will make frennds with outor space aliens for outor gullacti piece!!! TELEPORT!!

The Hive's Queen was thinking about committing suicide when the first Obama came out of the Hive cocoon....and started talking about healthcare.

RE: Eric Cantor is embarrassing my state

You better say it now, Rapheal.....In November with all the political rhetoric that has flown around.....few will be listening.

RE: Eric Cantor is embarrassing my state

Of course. Ford offers (Please note Ford the only auto firm not to get a stimulus bailout) can give you a Abrams dressed up anyways you want it.

Heck the Abram is so big, you can carry your own 10 piece band on the back and have your own mine sweeping system on the front.

And what will the neigbhors do when you pull your own Abram into the driveway?? Don't even think about placing it in a garage. Of course they will want one. They are not going to let you get ahead of them in the block's conventional arms race.

HI Leigh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: Obama will make frennds with outor space aliens for outor gullacti piece!!! TELEPORT!!

I just got Star Trek:The Vouyage Home to watch.

So just a question. If the Capt of the Enterprise were to go into the Hive and find President Obama being genically duplicated into 1000s more.

He should?

A) Run like heck

B) Release and save the Original President Obama from the Hive

C) Release all the President Obamas from the Hive

D) Destroy the Hive with everyone in it

E) Other

RE: Is Casey Anthony guilty?

What I posted was pretty much what every local news channel was saying about her release. Casey Anthony is still a topic of discussion at least locally. Personally, I know that double jeopardy on murder charges means that she will never see another court on them.

But that she still does have legal issues with her falsehoods and lies of earlier.....should be discussed some. Then you also have the Caylee Anthony laws that are sprouting up in the country. Another good topic.

RE: Eric Cantor is embarrassing my state

Just a thought Ooby Dooby.......why do they call them (those in the military)....citizen soldiers?

That 19 yo kid that is driving a Abram is a citizen. He might like to knock trees and small buildings with it. In fact they teach him how to that.:-) But he has all the same citizenship rights that you or I have.

I know ....but they are 'professional soldiers'. They were professional since the Revolutionary war. They got paid both in money and in other benefits.....like uniforms and shoes...food and housing.....all the way to then. But they were still 'citizen soldiers'.

But your point on the average citizen going down to his Ford dealership and not being able to buy a Abram....even in your favorite color is well taken. Make mine fire engine red.
With white treads with chromed tread nuts. We can do something that 20 foot 120 mm barrel and coaxil machine guns later.

RE: Is Casey Anthony guilty?

Where did I show anger?

Go USA Go USA Go USA......

China? The US is broke remember?

RE: United Nations Shock!!The UN Goes Political Incorrect!!

But don't talk or write about them....the UN will be unhappy with you. So will Ireland and Islam. So much for any future Don Quixote's.

RE: Is Casey Anthony guilty?

Just to pump this thread.....

Casey Anthony was released from jail earlier this morning. She went first to her attroney office in Orlando. Then non discript several cars left the under ground parking complex.

Most here think that she is headed to Porto Rico. But none are sure were she is or is going.

There have been a number of secondary law suits filed regarding the Casey Anthony case.

Mr. Crock has filed a defamation law suit against the private investigator. Eqa Search the TX firm that does human and human remain searches has filed a law suit against Casey Anthony. A
diver (he did a search in a local river) has filed a law suit against Casey Anthony.

RE: United Nations Shock!!The UN Goes Political Incorrect!!

My lips are sealed :-|! I cannot comment on this thread! The UN will not let me. Ireland will not let. Islam will not let me.

RE: Obama will make frennds with outor space aliens for outor gullacti piece!!! TELEPORT!!

I was going to post this in Dude's Obama thread.....but since it went poof.....

Solomian pirates are threatening to sue SKorea (a while back SKorea did a special operation to free some hostages and in the process killed some of the pirates and detained other that are now in SKorean prisons.)

Anyways the Solomian pirates want their brother pirates back and payment for the dead pirates. Else they are going to sue SKorea.


They must consider piracy a ligitmate business in Solomia.
Like Real Estate or selling used autos. The car dealer is showing car and the prospective buy has a accident and the dealer is killed. Sue the driving buyer for a wrongful death.

The real estate agent is showing a house. The potential buyers arrests her and takes her out of the country to face a prison sentence. Sue for habious corpus to get her released.

These Solomian pirates do have a sense of humor......

RE: Obama will make frennds with outor space aliens for outor gullacti piece!!! TELEPORT!!

Rapheal and myself are the last two legal poster in the poof thread.

All I did was ask why Murdock wants Obama to fail. Opps sorry Katt......I did it again.

Go USA Go USA Go USA......

They train at Sylvan Park in Seminole County. I use to train and play a men's side there. It is former World Cup complex of our 1994 WC. A nice small complex about 6 fields with lights.

But the way it works in the US.

They will hold a training camp for putting a National team together for a tourney. Many times they don't even announce the camp publically. Invite only. Or the camp was in our off season. So no, I have not seen them train. I use to know some of our older (yikes I better be careful here) women players on the National team of the 90s thought.

Most of these on the World Cup team. Played in our College soccer programs. And now are on women professional teams around the country.

Go USA Go USA Go USA......

Since no one has placed a thread on it. I will. But the USA Woman world cup team has played some of the top team in the world to get to the World Cup finals in Germany. They face Japan in the World Cup Finals on Sunday.

France (3-1), Brazil (1-1) R (2-2) O 5-3 PKs, NKorea (2-1), Columbia (3-0) were all wins in the World Cup. They lost to Sweden (1-2).

IN 2011, in their last 15 match the team is 12 and 3. That includse two 2-0 wins over Japan. The team they face in the finals.

The team is a young American team by the way. This team will play again in 4 years. They score goals as you can see by the scores. And can play with the best (Brazil) technical side in the world.

They have scored 34 goals in the last 15 matches. And gave up....just 13

Go USA Ladies....bring home the World Cup!

By the way. The Women national trains near me here in Central Florida.

RE: about Pakistan Development

I am going by a earlier report in day. With large explosions you have many that are trapped and caught in the building debrie. They are not necessarily counted until found. You have those that die after being taken to the hospital.

I suspect that these were vehicle bombs. Hence very large detonations. Very large debrie fields with massive building structure collapses.

I would not get upset at the media that reported the bombing some errored numbered on casualities. I would save that for the terrorist group, the country and the people that it come from.

RE: about Pakistan Development

Personally, I think that the US Gov't should start legal proceedings against the government and people of Pakistan
for aiding and abetting bin Laden and alQeada in the Haque.

With the evidence from his compound and other witnesses to the
bin laden prolonged presence in the country. A legal victory in the Hague is near certain.

A similar lawsuit has been filed against Iran for aiding in 911.
$100b is being sought from Iran.

In the case of US vs Pakistan, the charges can be:

1)Hosting (aiding and abetting) of a mass murder (911).
2)Hosting (aiding and abetting) of a international terrorist(911 and other acts of Islamic terrorism).
3)Providing weapons and explosives to a mass murder for criminal activities in Afghanistan.
4)Providing intelligence for civilian deaths in Afghanistan.

The awarded claims for such should be well over $100b in settlement payments and restitution to the victims of bin Laden and alQeada terrorism that was hosted from Pakistan.

I figure it about 1/2 to the amount of foreign aid the US has given to Pakistan for the last 10 years.

On the compound walls of bin Laden compound were found weapon targets for zeroing weapons for alQeada small units that were sent into Afghanistan. So bin Laden's Pakistani neighbors had to know by the sound of many light weapons recoils in the compound that some kind of terrorist group was housed there. Yet they did nothing. They reporte nothing to the Pakistani government.

Hence they (the people of Pakistan) acted in manner to aid and abett bin Laden and alQeada in Abbottsbad.

We want our billions in foreign aid to Pakistan back.

RE: about Pakistan Development

Pakistani Terrorists struck again in Mumbia India. Three blasts at public sites killed 17 and wound 81. One bomb failed to detonate.

From now on instead of placing a Islamic terrorist group name (alQeada, LET, etc) on these attacks......we can just start using the more generic term...."Pakistani Terrorists"
