       Even more foolish is the current claims that the Seals should
       have taken the injured wife of Osama with them when they left.
       An operation like this is planned out to the least detail, and
       they are sent in to accomplish specific tasks, and nothing else.
       The reason why it was so successful was because the mission was
       kept extremely simple and focused.  The last thing they needed
       was to have responsibility of bringing along a screaming,
       injured woman.

       Did those spice merchants have barbed wire at the top of their
       high walls?

       … If they can counterfeit $100 bills, I think it’s a million
       times easier to counterfeit a birth certificate, if you ask me.
       So, all it is, let’s just see if it’s real. Anybody can produce
       a document, so let’s check it out.

       This hasn't been a good week for pro athletes and their views on
       current events.

       Why couldn't we have traded for him when we had Milton Bradley.

       From the Luke Scott article:  n a profile by ESPN that revealed
       the fact that Scott is proud to say that he legitimately
       believes that President Obama wasn’t born in the United States,
       Scott also added as an addendum that his friendship with fellow
       outfielder Felix Pie involves throwing banana chips at Pie when
       he think she’s acting like an ‘animal’ or a ‘savage’,
       The writer is actually more amusing than Scott.
       The writer essentially tries to ridicule Scott for believing
       something which roughly half of the country believed, and by
       suggesting that Scott is racist for doing something which would
       be ignored if Pie were white.  Unless there is some reason to
       believe that Scott would not do the same thing with Pie if Pie
       were behaving the same way but with skin several shades lighter,
       the racist would not seem to be Scott, but the writer.

       "Did those spice merchants have barbed wire at the top of their
       high walls?"
       They did not, but your question got me curious, and I just
       called a friend still in the spice business who goes there every
       year.  He says that for the past 10 years, just about all
       private (country houses) have not only barbed wire, but also
       armed guards.
