THE GANG THAT COULDN'T SHOOT STRAIGHT
Good points all on the privacy issue. However, I would still argue that the VP is a little different than an ordinary citizen.
Also, just because the Administration is getting flack for this doesn't make withholding the info right. As I say in the article, sometimes you have to take your lumps in the interest of the public's right to know.

It's not news when the Veep shoots someone and no one in government thinks of informing the people?
Um...'kay. But it does illustrate the larger point I was making in the piece - that this Administration is overly secretive and that this is deterimental to our democracy.

It just ended. And the time here is CST.
If I get an opportunity, I'll make it available on the website.

HOW CAN YOU TOP "OVER THE TOP?"
Biff:
I did not seek to define race. What I said was it is scientifically ignorant to delineate Arabs as a separate, distinct race, something that no cultural anthropologist in their right mind would do.

Cato:
A simple correction without the implied disapprobation would have been in order, thank you.
And it's hardly a $10 word. That there is a full blooded, gold plated, $25 Saturday Night Special of a word.
And wasn't Cato tied to a pillar and pilloried? Or is it the othe way around?

Um...yeah. And if you can't see it, pity upon you.
Ragheads is a perjorative for an entire ethnic block. Crazed Islamists refers to a subset of that block that accurately describes their state of mind.

Love that movie. Jimmie Stewart was outstanding. And Lee Marvin as Liberty (his first major role)was pitch perfect as the half-crazed killer.
How about Strother Martin as Liberty's whacko sidekick. His laugh while Edmond O'Brien was getting beaten up was so unsettling.
One of Wayne's more interesting movies...

JMC:
Thanks for the info. And you are correct up to a point. I think you would agree that the gentleman is a voice crying out in the wilderness and until there are many more like him, there will be little or no pressure on the radicals to stop the killing.

Amen. We are sleepwalking into disaster. The more we give the more they take.
