You (all) lie!
In honour of the political quote of 2009.

I feel this title slights those socks that never post their own thoughts but instead simply copy the thoughts (or blogs) of others. I would argue that Ty has never lied on this board, but instead he unknowingly copies the lies of others.

For the very same reason I would have gone with "Critical habitat of the post hoc." |

Food board crossover
On the Food board today, as many may be aware (although having said that I am not really sure how many crossover posters we really have), there was a discussion of things that grow in CA, and it was implicitly asserted that everything grows there.........and apparently as related to small business failures that is a true statement........
Small-business bankruptcies rise 81% in California
Well done Arnold and the Dems of CA. Way to make what was once the land of promise one of the most business unfriendly states in the nation.....world. Of course the politicians who lie will blame it on the larger economy........but anyone who has ever had the unpleasure to do business there knows that the problem transcends the Great Recession. No offence.

Bush lied!
Tora Bora constitutes one of the greatest military blunders in recent U.S. history.
The tax cuts notwithstanding, I truly believe Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld should be drawn and quartered in the public square for the failure outlined in that article, assuming that it is true. I hope after healthcare reform is done, Obama has the cojones to pursue a process that could yield this result.
No offence.

It was a blunder in how we deployed/utilised (underdeployed/misutilised?) our military, for what, ultimately, is a military action that continues to today, no?
eta: merde! I whiffed, oui?

Shit, I hope so. Otherwise, I've been watching a qualified defense by Ty of the Bush Administration, and a criticism of it by you, and I don't think I can fucking take that. |

Re: You (all) lie!
The military effects of the screw-up haven't been huge. That's all. Needless to say, I would like to see bin Laden on trial in a courtroom in the Southern District of New York.

I read the first two pages, but there are eight pages! does the guy say how we could have sealed the border with more men? I know he says they wanted more men, and I'm sure cheney says no at page 4, but he also says you cannot seal the border.
does he say we should have paratrooped guys on the afghan side to seal behind?

I think the idea is not that we could have sealed the border per se, but that we had bin Laden pinned down and very well might have killed or captured him.

Really? I would like to see him shot through the penis by a Marine sniper, begging for his life from American captors but inevitably dying because the nearest coalition forces medic is a woman and he won't sign the consent to treatment. But maybe I'm just a different breed of cat. |

Don't you think he'd prefer to be a martyr like that? Why give him the satisfaction.
And one assumes that in this situation you'd be able to overcome your prior reluctance to truck with prison rape.
