  1. You are deep into the area of alternative facts. Just stating your opinion is pretty meaningless. If you want to respond to something I post, to persuade me that you are correct, add a link to some facts somewhere or other. Iraq gave an 11,000 page report to the UN. The Americans refused to respond to it. Iraq was fully in compliance with UN orders and requirements. Iraq was crawling with UN people who were finding nothing. Bush got impatient, ordered them out (without any authority to do that) and invaded. The post war American effort to turn something up which cost hundreds of millions of dollars, found nothing. It's all in the public record.
  2. Iraq did use chem weapons..... with American assistance. 1. Curveball alcoholic liar, Chalabi, convicted criminal fraudster, German intelligence warning, Valerie Plame, yellowcake african country crude document forgery, Judith Miller, Iraq survey group conclusion no wmd, illegal invasions, Downing Street memo. Depleted uranium, Fallujah. Al Quaeda not in Iraq. Collin Powell United nations WMD mobile labs. "We know where they are" have a look at those.
  3. watched useless desperation reach around from behind with stick move by Orpik 44 as Penguin skated by him to score winning goal last night. This reminded me of some Jets defencemen who often seem to be in the same position and use the same usless move.
  4. sctv (original)
  5. well thought out comment, thanks Johnzo, you have clearly thought about nuclear deterrence more than a little bit. The other side of the coin is, that the Americans would not have invaded Iraq if they truly believed that Iraq had nuclear and chemical weapons. Which was a lesson that North Korea learned from. If you get nukes, you will not be invaded by the USA.
  6. lol description of getzlaf; yeah he'd be a great player to have tough/ nasty but good hockey player. Too many times Jets players were victims of dirty play, and no response of any kind from the refs or the other players.
  7. ducks fans whining already and so on. "Canadian team" slams. (Jets need a player like Lucic.)
  8. sure would be nice to see the Duhcks lose this series.
  9. more Trump hot air. This a-hole likes saying stupid things, then watching everyone run around reacting while he has cake and who knows what else. we'll be lucky to get through this idiot's tenure without some major damage.
  10. Guess we might as well bomb south Korea while we're at it associated press. South Korea was ruled by brutal dictators, including the father of the recent president. But they were our brutal dictators. Therefore the tortrure is ok.
  11. if espn was your only sports news source, you would not know that NHL playoffs are on. However, you would know what LeBron had for breakfast today, whether he liked it or not, and whether this will affect his performance. Also, the ethics of his breakfast choice. Morally ok or not? And what effect the breakfast will have on his legacy. absolute drivel, almost non stop. The other day I heard Mike and Mike whine that LeBron was being treated unfairly. Can't listen for more than one minute.
  12. Unreal.
  13. Are you sure? They are pretty stupid. Abysmally stupid. had a quick look at n korea weaponry. all kinds of evil crap chemical weapons, gas, biological, missiles, scuds. Trump's found the keys to the gun cabinet. Somebody's going to get shot.
  14. could not find a direct link.
  15. Not that Trump cares about South Korea, or even understands this. I doubt that he does. By his own admission He didn't know what Nato was 6 months ago.
  16. edit
  17. delete
  18. The prevailing opinion here was that DesJardins was not very good at his job. Read that a number of times. Also, lot of people informed that Ottawa had a terrible O line. (Atomic the exception) Also, Burris was terrible.
  19. He said one thing, where he was being honest. Probably a slip up. He said in business it's important to be heartless. Anyone expecting anything different now is stupid. Strong early contender for one of the worst non war world leaders in modern history.
  20. The Americans have been doing this for decades. BC can ship raw logs to the states but not lumber. Mills have closed in BC partly cause of that. "The Canada–U.S. softwood lumber dispute is one of the largest and most enduring trade disputes between both nations.[1] This conflict was given rise in the early 1980s and its effects are still seen today. British Columbia, the major Canadian exporter of softwood lumber to the United States, was most affected, reporting losses of 9,494 direct and indirect jobs between 2004 and 2009. Not sure but you also see live hogs shipped to USA from Manitoba, maybe the same kind of thing. Trump building defences for when the Russian **** hits the fan.
  21. saw some of that ap interview. Something wrong with Trump's thought process.
  22. Not sure, but I think therecan be partial tears, of those ligaments.
  23. Capitals had numerous close scoring chances in the third period, specially Kuznetzoff. (sp) Holtby was good too, but Leafs goalie was what kept them in the game, I thought. And the game winner, the leaf D man was a spectator as the guy went around him , in, and scored. got some defence problems. But Mathews, that guy appears to be a real team leader. Leafs are going to be good next few years. I disike the city of Toronto as much as anyone, but I don't mind a Canadian hockey team being good.
  24. Montreal..... The Wild......beaten by the coach they fired... some good p.r. needed Coach changes not always working out so well.
  25. Some Blackhawks fans at hfboards are a bit down on those two.
