Re: Was the war with it?

Re: Was the war with it?
Yikes. One heckuva response.
Wait wait. I didn't say necessarily evil or genius, just lying. Or "misstating themselves" if you prefer.
The "real" reason to invade Iraq was strategic -- it...

iTunes. Or you can find them on that one thing that sort of plays music that it thinks you'll like based on you entering the name of another group that it thinks is similar. They're on there. Or:

Re: Was the war with it?
I held back then that invading Iraq might be a good idea, but the pretense of WMDs was/is utterly false and the Neo-con hawks knew it. The CIA released publically prior to the invasion information...

Re: Sweeney Todd
That would've been the performance all right -- somewhere in the 90/91 school year. I remember the [your instrument] section sounding especially good that night. :)

Re: Natural Urge Apologetics
Then maybe the way you're coming across here on CG isn't how you intend to come across. Your rhetoric sounds like one of general contempt for all gay people with no willingness to respect them as...

Re: Natural Urge Apologetics
I know you're not saying it was right back then, but to me it was absolutely *wrong* back then too. To me, it's very much like the kids I grew up with in church. There was a boundary shift in our...

Re: Natural Urge Apologetics
Not sure how we're defining apologists here, so maybe I'm not one, but my main contention isn't that Everyone Should Be Carnal, but rather that Mormons should stop being jackasses toward people who...

Re: Sweeney Todd
Not that I know of, but I haven't given it much of an opportunity. I saw a few way back in BYU days (Don Giovanni, a really crappy student production of Barber of Seville, the Magic Flute, Parsifal)...

The thing that frustrates me about the dems is that there's actually some sound economic philosophy behind their platform. They just don't bother mentioning any of that and instead just pander to the...

Re: Nominate your best authors by language
Um, Schiller, right? I think Lessing probably played an even more important role in the development of German literature than Goethe did, but reading Goethe's prose is amazing. I mean, it's 200 years...

Re: My vacation plans this summer
Best things about New Zealand:
1. No advertising. It was amazing to spend two weeks in a marketing vaccuum. Amazing in a positive sense.
2. No people. The natives complained about how crowded...

It's competently written, but it also comes across as VERY safe. There's nothing in it that would ever stand out. Inasmuch as they're testing to see if he can communicate effectively, he's golden....
