Add Discovery channel, CSI and the military channel to your list and thats about all I watch.

Put it on Tivo and eliminate the commercials and life is good...

Excellent point, we wouldn't want to be responsible for that... perhaps drop her in the Antarctic where she could be eaten by polar bears... they are used to blubber.

Rosie is an angry lesbian celebrity, I can't think of a worse combination.

Definite tsumani.

Even her farts have reached 4.2 on the Richter scale. Combine that with the stench and you've got a WMD even Techweenie would recognize.

While some may argue about man's contribution to global warming no one doubts Rosie's.

Wow, I've never been called a "liberal scumbag" before... That's a first and is pretty ironic since I'm a very conservative veteran of Desert Storm and a 9 year USN Corpsman veteran. I've had in-depth conversations with about 25 current and former military who are adamantly opposed to our presence in Iraq and Bush's actions/policies and none of them are "liberal scumbags" either, they just have opinions and they don't happen to agree with the current administrations.
Well, you have twenty five fiends who are against, but served, and thank you for your service as well, I do mean that. I too have/had friends who served in Gulf 1, the one who had the most impact on me served and saw action in both the Vietnam and Gulf Wars. He won numerous medals and citations during his 30+ year career including Bronze Star, Navy Commendation Medal, Vietnam Service Medal, Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal and the Kuwait Liberation Medal. One of the others is a retired Pentagon Col., the private club I belong to has many retired officers, then add the number of retired & active military
that participate in the local & Zone PCA events, the number of people in the know is greater than 25, then add in my work & clients, well the number of people who do have a clue grows even larger. Like I said, most of the people who serve/served I come across & know, support the action, but not all of them, but far fewer feel as you do than support our President.

In my work I run across many veterans (I am one myself) both enlisted and officer. I work with them every day as clients and as fellow employees- some of whom have recently returned from Iraq- and one of whom just returned to Iraq- commanding over 7,000 marines.

Not one doesn't think we're doing the right thing there and to a man they despise the media for their portrayal of the military and our efforts in Iraq. They feel undermined and betrayed; their scorn for the media is almost palpable.

They all support Bush but some do question his conduct of the war. OTOH...almost all of the officers I've spoken with didn't like Rumsfeld and were glad to see him go. Many said so before his departure.

I have yet to come across one- and I've probably talked to over a hundred in the past year- who is "adamantly opposed" to our presence in Iraq.

Sorry but I have to question the veracity of that statement.
