when the rifle recoil would still knock me on my little rear. I learned real quick to spread stance...lol. I was not and still am not a hunter...though my best friend is. To each his/her own...my brother and dad hunted. I can, however, defend myself and my property. And will...unless your guy is elected. I look for them to want to change gun laws. I know what he SAYS about it...I just don't believe him. :)

Shoot. Looks like they let the
Bigotry sure does make you look bogus.
Shoot...
Look at all those girls (young ladies) sending filthy pics all over the place as well. Of course, I'm talking mainly about the teens, but even the older ones (more the Facebook crowd). That stuff comes back to bite them in the butt when potential employers scope out FB and myspace...wowza!
Shoot...
From the information I found, a crime such as this committed on the high seas is a federal crime and yes, they can shoot all they want!! Unfortunately, it sounded like the Navy personnel were not on their toes when the captain jumped and therefore the pirates starting shooting warning shots at the captain, so since the Navy wasn't watching when he jumped and wasn't expecting it, they weren't prepared to take out the pirates in the lifeboat.
Maybe they're not taking their eyes off now!!
They can't shoot.
U.S. rules of engagement prevent the Americans using their vastly superior fighting power to engage the pirates if there is any danger to civilians.
Oh shoot. Answer above. Sorry again! nm

So don't shoot the messenger.
Of course, disease is a choice and I know many doctors who believe the same way. We can prevent diabetes, heart disease, cancer and many other diseases simply by making changes in our diet and lifestyle. We may not realize the choices we made contributed to it, but nonetheless, we can be healthy if we work at it. Unborn babies have to rely on their mothers to stay healthy. None of us really know the damage we may do to our unborn by ingesting things we "consider to be healthy. I'll let you make your own deductions of what that may be instead of inciting you to anger, based on what this country perceives as "health food." I don't really care for the way you present yourself either but I wouldn't make a judgement call based on the way you do it. My baby sister died from CF in 1959. It is a lung disease. Now that I know much more than I did back then, I realize what may have caused her death and yes, my mother (bless her heart) unknowingly could have probably prevented it. There is more info now but most people simply refuse to believe it can be as simple as it seems. I do believe it.
LOL My dad taught me to
shoot with a 12-gauge shotgun that had belonged to his dad. That dadgone thing would kick so hard it's a wonder I didn't shoot myself! Went on to learn to shoot rifles and handguns. I don't hunt either but let's just say it wouldn't be a good idea to stand where I'm fixin' to shoot. LOL
First of all...who taught you how to
spell potato? Second of all....even if we let N. Korea be...there is no stopping them from nuking us if they really want to. You cannot reason with these people. Give em an inch, they take a mile. Being nice to them and bending to their threats won't make them like us any more. It will show weakness and they will continue to make threats to get what they want. The only time bullies stop is when someone is big enough to stand up to them.
Is shoot the messenger the new mantra here.
You have no idea what my politics are. Do you know who Richard Cohen is? He is a very far left liberal columnist and he thought it was over the line. See, this is why no one, from anywhere, can have a discussion with people on this board. If someone doesn't agree with you, they are a *neocon* whatever the heck that is. I find that mindset disturbing. You are not worth arguing with. All you can do is label. Pathetic.
Oh well, shoot, I forgot....Obama already said...
we should be calling Europe and talking to them about it. So why doesn't he call? Do SOMETHING other than campaign until this is over. I would have thought a lot more of him if he had joined in this. What would it have hurt to put off the debate for a couple of days? Seriously. Can't you get your head around that? Geez!
Well, then, don't shoot somebody for stealing your food. LOL

Shoot - Let me know if you want image that bigger (NM)
I do not agree about what we were taught...
Just my opinion and FYI....
I do not agree with what you said *all jews are taught that the story of Job is a play and did not really happen* (or words to that effect). I am Jewish and had an orthodox father and I also had 8 years of formal studies on Saturdays and then Sundays, and in my Holy Scriptures from 1917 which I just checked (Old Testament) on page 924 is the story of Job, and we, where I come from, were never taught that the story of Job was not true.
Guess we were all taught somewhat different....all of us, everywhere...it's what makes the world go round actually.
Excuse me but I was taught
abstinence only in school and if I would have had a daughter, I would never have allowed her on birth control pills, etc. because of the risk of blood clots, heart attacks, and it being almost a consent to have sex before marriage. I see nothing wrong with teaching abstinence only.
Whoa - hold on - Don't shoot the messenger
As that saying goes "Don't shoot the messenger". I was just passing on an article I thought was interesting. I have no idea if it was from a conservative or liberal view point. If I find another article that goes opposite will be happy to pass that on too. I'm for neither and probably won't even vote this fall because I don't want to have the responsibility if the "bad one" is picked that I would have contributed. Just thought this point of view was interesting.
I was only taught to put my hand over my heart for
.
I always remember what my mom and dad taught me growing up
Treat others how you want to be treated. Don't call people names if you wouldn't want to be called names. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and if you don't like what is being said (this pertained more to racial slurs in public when they would look at me and call me a name) keep walking and soon you will not hear them talk anymore.
Hope the board will now come back to what it is meant for. You have a good night and don't let people get to you. You are a valuable person with valuable ideas and thoughts and that's what makes our country a wonderful place.
Shouldn't someone who taught school
for 20 years know it's 'twice as well to be thought half as good"? And besides, that slogan was stolen from the feminist movement. A woman has to work twice as hard and do twice as well to be thought half as good as a man."
No points for originality. Minus 1 point for grammar.
Tolerance is NOT what they're being taught......
What they are doing is pushing crap down the throats of little children, undermining what their parents are teaching them at home. My children were not taught homosexuality is "okay" but neither were they taught to hate others just because they live a lifestyle that is different. There is a huge difference. Public education is paid for by the "taxpayers", not the federal govt, who is allowing this garbage in the first place. Obviously the federal govt forgot where they get their money from as well!!
If tolerance is your ONLY argument, they why aren't they teaching tolerance of the Bible, prolife, etc. THe list could go on and on. We all know what is going on here..... PUSHING A GAY AGENDA in a public school.
Children are sent to school to learn knowledge skills, not how John and Matt like to live together, which in case you don't get it, is morality. The last place I want my children learning morality is at school. They should be taught that at home in the first place. They see enough garbage in school as it is.
children were being taught to accept the
lifestyle of homosexuals in their sex education classes, is that right? Might we assume that is why you don't teach them your views on this issue at home? Please explain the great truth you found in JTBB's post to us.
Shoot..left out the best part...subpeona specified 30 days! LOL. (nm)

That's like saying because I LOVE Ray Charles' music, I must shoot up heroin, as he did???....
Do you guys really believe your own rhetoric in these postings, or is this just delusional, absurd thinking by otherwise intelligent people because Obama won, George is gone hallelujah, and McCain/Palin lost??? Don't get me wrong, I am sick of BOTH parties most of the time, like lying, spoiled children, I would love to see a truly Independent party take hold with a REAL candidate, but when you have to pick on Obama's musical tastes in order to make a point, that is showing DESPERATION.
Your mamma taught you no manners. Nice to have

Grandma taught me that only BORING people

Maybe because the Christians taught the Muslims how to be ruthless...
murderers during the Crusades? Good enough reason for me.
Rush Limbaugh taught 'em how!
 Desperate to say something bad, even if they have to fake the film to do it! Because they know their loyal viewers are such sheep they'll believe anything they see on their show as gospel - even if it is debunked later!
What we were taught though was to SING the Star Spangled Banner...sm
Hand over the heart and sing the words. It amazes me that not everyone does that, but that is what I was taught. Most people do not even know the words.
Good point. I see no problem with both points of view being taught...
and letting indivdiuals decide. Isn't that what America is about?
