		<description>Afghanistan and Iran are the hot spots in the Middle East.  Obama said he would add troops in Afghanistan and talk to Iran.  

It took nearly a month to call President Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan.  Obama made his troop decision without talking to the Afghan President?

On Iran, Obama has a Special Adviser on Iran, neocon Dennis Ross, but no envoy.  The &lt;em&gt;Jersualem Post &lt;/em&gt;reported:

&quot;The United States views Iran acquiring an illicit nuclear capacity as a grave threat to ourselves, to the region and indeed to Israel,&quot; Rice told National Public Radio in an interview airing on Friday and Monday. 

&quot;Our aim is to combine enhanced pressures, and indeed the potential for direct engagement to try to prevent Iran from taking its program to fruition,&quot; she said. 

Also on Friday, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said that the international community must work together to urgently address Iran&#039;s uranium enrichment activities. 

Gibbs called Iran an urgent problem that has to be addressed. &quot;We can&#039;t delay addressing it,&quot; he said.

What&#039;s the more immediate threat as it would take 2 to 5 years to enrich the uranium to weapons grade?  It&#039;s the prospect of the Iranian people electing a reformer this summer.

Israel/U.S. can&#039;t attack without a boogey man.  Israeli newspaper are aflame regarding the Iranian threat.  Bombs over Bushehr.</description>

		<description>That article about the food banks is incredibly irritating.  In a country where people will line up around the block for a free mini Slushee at 7-11 or a single free taco at Taco Bell, and go through the line again and again, and then hit every other store they can get to and do it all day long, now those same people are hitting up food banks for way WAY more than a taco or slushee.    $55,000 a year, you have a multimillion dollar place to live all to yourself, you already have one kid and you got yourselves knocked up AGAIN, and you&#039;re still grabbing food out of a food bank??  Gold earrings and a designer purse, and a brand-new car?  The people in that article sound like they&#039;re just there because hey, it&#039;s entire bags and boxes of free food, why the heck not?

They all sounded like a bunch of obnoxious, greedy, entitlement-minded twats.  How can anyone have the GALL to show up at a food bank dripping with gold and jewels and driving a brand-new car?  Sell some of your useless crap and feed yourselves for months, you greedy grasping chuckleheads.

If nothing else, they should realize they&#039;re probably going to be followed home and robbed, or just flat-out mugged before they even get that far.  

The worst part is that this is going to cause people and companies to stop donating.</description>

&lt;strong&gt;Q U E S T I O N:&lt;/strong&gt;
If Leahy is dead set on a &quot;TRUTH COMMISSION&quot; that is &lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; out to seek indictments, then why the need to assemble people to testify under the guise of immunity of prosecution...
... NO INDICTMENTS = ALREADY IMPLIES IMMUNITY!

		<description>Ooooohhh, watchdog....

thank you for posting that instance. That makes it clear to all, the depths of lawlessness to which those filthy dem libs will stoop. There is no, I repeat, NO comparison when looking at the republicans going back at least that far. Those nasty, horrid little demlibs are just the most evil, selfish group there is. How dare they?  Those lazy never do well scumbags who think that medical and pharmacueticals should be rights -- what a load of crap. They just want to leech off of other people&#039;s money, unlike the hard working corporate executives who earn their pay, and the hardworking stockbrokers and investors who shift paper around for money:  it is they who keep the system alive by producing... umm... well, more paperwork to move around, and, most importantly, they make lots of money for their shareholders (who don&#039;t have to work for that money, but it is a risk to invest, so they earn it through that risk.... and if the risk goes bad, they can recoup their losses through the federal government, which keeps the government working, so it is one of those &quot;win/win&quot; situations).

Man, those dirty demlibs and their dirty tricks: they are &quot;the man&quot; trying to keep down the hard working, productive, oppressed, and misunderstood wealthy types. 

Oh, and as a good friend of mine once said, &quot;There are no such thing as &quot;basic human rights&quot;. Same fellow was very vocal that the solution to 9/11 was to &quot;nuke the entire middle east off the planet&quot;.  well, I don&#039;t know what that makes him, since he did not show the proper republican deference and allegiance to the great nation of Israel (seig heil!).

I think my indignation is showing (I&#039;ll get a towel....).</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;The Republic of Stupidity Says: 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Truth Commission = appease those who are calling for justice until the statute of limitations runs out on torture and other high crimes.
_____________

Does the statue of limitations run out on crimes like these?

They’re still hunting down old Nazis and putting them on trial.&lt;/em&gt;


Yes. As unbelievable as it sounds !  Torture - in the United States of America - has a statute of limitations of 8 years!

Internationally, it&#039;s a different story.  I&#039;m resting my hopes on the World Court.  I don&#039;t think there&#039;s the &quot;cojones&quot; in this country to punish these &quot;evildoes&quot;.</description>
