    Russian media censorship goes way beyond shutting down a satiric magazine:

    "Russia is the third deadliest country in the world for journalists over the past 15 years, behind Iraq and Algeria," the Committee to Protect Journalists said in June 2007.

    Since 2000, according to the CPJ, 17 journalists have been killed in Russia "in the line of duty". A total of 14 were murdered in retaliation for their journalism; "two died in crossfire; and one was killed while covering a dangerous assignment". The CPJ continues to investigate the deaths of eight others to determine if their deaths were work-related. None of the 14 murders since 2000 has been solved and "13 bear the marks of contract hits".

    I kinda find the button offensive. It reminds me of the phrase "They don't call it a 'White House' for nothing"

    From what I hear (aka: read) cabaker...you make cakes, which makes you a good person by default. Smiling Everyone is entitled to their opinions and interpretations.

    All this McC hottie talk made me forget what I was gonna say. But he was handsome.
    Oh, yes, what they did to Kerry's heroic career was disgraceful. They could do the same with McC. Just watch.

    No comment on the swiftboating. It disgusted me when they did it to Sen. Kerry and it'll discuss me if they do it to Sen. McCain.

    Vladimir Putin is one power hungry s.o.b. and somebody needs to have a little come to Jesus with him.

    I'm sure you'll have your usual construction worker and high school student making cracks about the Black House.

    As for saving gas people to often forget preventative measures. When I say this I speak to my experience so stay your billy clubs. In my life 9 out of 10 people had & have no idea how to maintain their car. An unturned car, running pistons on low and or dirty oil, and tires not filled to specifications alone contribute to so much wasted gas.

    I once made love to Phyllis Schlafly. I won't go into details but let's just say if being wrong means sleeping with the right, then let me be wrong.
