Given the respective number of civilians killed by Hezbollah and Israel in the last few weeks, what exactly is it that makes Hezbollah "terrorists" but not the IDF?

Not a rhetorical question, and not a defense of Hezbollah.

IDF is a defensive force.

I like the Claret and the Rosso too. Maybe we vote the same (I am voting for Lieberman, you?).

I'd like to taste the Rubicon.....

It's a beautiful place on the Leelanau wine trail. The original post shows ignorance. to question the rise of Michigan wines is ignore list ignorance. I was making a sincere recommendation. www.cicconevineyards.com

I keep waiting for Spanky to come around and kick your ass for saying these things, since I know he cares strongly about such epistomological matters, but maybe he's on vacation or something.

If Israeli bombs didn't kill those kids, who did?

1. WaPo? Is Janet Cooke involved?

2. I'll stick with Haraatz for now.

3. Who?!?!

4. Hezbollah.

Why do you feel the need to justify terrorists? They represent very clearly who they are and what defines their identity, what part of it do you like or agree with?

See, when you were pressing Ty on whether Hezbollah staged photos or killed their own kids or somesuch shit, I thought you did so in order to make the point that they're even MORE evil fuckers than we thought.

But if you're not saying that -- if you're saying instead that they're the most evilest fuckers the world has ever known from the moment that Bill Kristol said so, then that's cool. Makes your Qana Staging Photo Scandal a bit irrelevant, but I can be down with that. It does sound like your meter's already set to 11, and the posting's becoming a little unhinged, so I suspect we're passing the inflection point in this discussion anyway.

Why the hate? He was trying to be helpful. Craft wineries are growing industry. I have no doubt there is some wine coming out of MI and some of it may be worthy of discussion. No offence, but CA's days of prominence (based on quality) in the US wine industry are coming to end.

Indeed. Why, I see their Pinot Grigio bronzed at the 2004 Michigan State Fair. I take it all back.

You're the Orwell fan. Coming from you, it would have been allusive. Penske was just evading the question.

2. Oregon wines are better than Californian. California is becoming Oregon's Mexico.
