    A Solution to the Iran Situation?

    To this my response is very easy and very accurate: If you take away the momentum, there won't be any form of support. A politician can make bold statements, it's not hard for him to do so. But it takes a lot more to actually go through with said statements. What I mean is, if all the...

    A Solution to the Iran Situation?

    Ah, ok. Then I don't know. To me the israel issue is more a symptom than a cause. As in: if everything else was ok, they probably wouldn't have such strong feelings about it (although I'm not sure).

    Raziaar, could you be clearer? I don't understand what you ask.

    A Solution to the Iran Situation?

    Here's the answer, and in that respect I must admit I wonder what was written in that letter. The only real solution, a solution that would defuse the middle-eastern crisis entirely, is to have the leaders of the western world make a public apology. That's right. Then, our leaders...

    Stephen Colbert addressed at the White House Correspondents Dinner

    Yeah, I know. I admit I lurk a lot compared to how often I post. But this topic got my blood running faster. I really enjoy how the confrontation between mainstream media and internet (anonymous) reporting is headed in favor of the latter. This wouldn't have been possible just five years ago.

    Stephen Colbert addressed at the White House Correspondents Dinner

    This thursday, Rumsfeld heard hard questions from a former cia agent, just after having protesters removed from the room. The cia guy asked Rumsfeld why he lied about the WMD's, and quoted Rumsfeld words from back in 2002. Rumsfeld stuttered, of course...

    Stephen Colbert addressed at the White House Correspondents Dinner

    I read the guardians' article, and I do agree with their point. (This is what I meant by asking if Colbert planned this all along) Still, over here in Europe, everyone saw the twin Bush act, while noone even heard of Stephen Colberts' name, let alone his satire speech. The main difference with...

    Stephen Colbert addressed at the White House Correspondents Dinner

    I think this is what happened (consider this a recap): Firstly, Colbert gave his performance, where he made fun of the press and the president. Secondly, noone in the audience laughed. Instead they were offended. This is because this was a dinner composed out of press and governemental highly...

    Stephen Colbert addressed at the White House Correspondents Dinner

    I don't think that's all that matters. This is the first time I have endured with my own eyes that mainstream media can work together on an international scale to ommit something just because they want to. Lately I can't stand to listen to the radio, I feel like they're forcing their "news"...

    Stephen Colbert addressed at the White House Correspondents Dinner

    I think the media is boycotting him because they were offended? This is mere speculation though.

    Stephen Colbert addressed at the White House Correspondents Dinner

    You guys don't find it strange that we didn't see anything in the mainstream news? And I mean total international black-out. Is it really because he offended the media folks who were at that dinner? (...you know, fiction) Does this mean the mainstream media doesn't care that so much people...

    Banks and Loans...

    In my experience, there are two things that enable loans: -having a work contract -having someone who will pose as a warrant (I don't know the exact terms) Having either one of these conditions should be enough. Of course, they'll check if you have debts, but you said you didn't. The fact that...

    Capital I?

    If it's because it's the word that you use in place of a name, your contradicting yourself. If I say "you" to you, I mean you. Get it? You've got a name too and all that jazz. I think it's just the way it's done. I don't think you'll find a etimology report that'll be 100% certain of its...

    Anyone know ear pain?

    Please note: I am not responsible or liable for any legal issues and anything I write is pure fiction. ruptured eardrum sounds pretty much spot on though. I had a ruptured eardrum a couple of years ago, also while sparring, I got a boxing glove right against my left ear. I knew something was...
