1745 – John Jay, first Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court
1863 – Painter Edvard Munch (he got a Google picture today)
1875 – Field Marshall Gerd von Rundstedt
1893 – Edward G. Robinson
1915 – Frank Sinatra
1923 – Bob Barker *snicker*

1943 – Grover Washington, Jr.
1946 – Emerson Fittipaldi
1952 – Cathy Rigby
1978 – The Dahm triplets, of Howard Stern and Playboy fame…
And, on the opposite side of the spectrum:
1712 – Prince Charles Alexander of Lorraine was born. He got his butt whipped by Frederick the Great at Chotustiz in 1742 and Hohenfriedberg in 1745, and at Rocoux in 1746. In the Seven Year's War, while commanding the Austrians at the Battle of Praguein 1757, got his butt kicked once again, and finally, one more time, this time by Frederick the Great's nephew, at Leuthen. After that illustrious military career, he finally retired.
Today in Liberalism History: In 2000, Al Gore pioneers the "get fat and grow a beard" lifestyle.
Now is the Mexican army going to fight the drug war like they did earlier in the year, where they were actually aided the drug runners?
How pathetic does someone have to be to steal a christmas tree. They lucky I'm not the owner, I would make it easy to get in but you would be leaving a leg or arm if you decided to steal from me.
Why isn't there a public uproar about the 12 1/2 year sentences handed down to the two Border Guards, who did more for their country in one day than most do in a lifetime. They do not belong in jail !!!!
PS If I missed somethhing about them that says this is justice, please email me or post it.
Misterbill, seen your post and had to ask for your help, please pass this link along to as many people as you know.
There is outrage out there, just not loud enough, I posted this awhile back and got several NB's to send a petition as well. Thanks for any and all help on the issue.
Okay, I am going to boast of one of New York's own: Mark Finkelstein of Right Angle. I was recently honored to receive a most kind email from him, in regards to an article of his posted.
Mark, recently came back from a trip to Iraq, where he conducted interviews and personally saw things for himself. He shares his findings with viewers of his local talk show (Right Angle), findings that will not be seen or heard on main stream media shows. This is a link to an audio of the local TV show in Ithaca NY.

Mark discusses the America Supports You! program with Deputy Assistant Defense Secretary Allison Barber, then describes his just-concluded trip to Iraq... (They speak of the web site: www.AmericaSupportsYou.mil.)
That would appear to be a fair assessment according to this wackjob. He doesn't opine about the causes of gay women, though. Also, there is not one source, link, or study cited in the article. Are their more gays now than in the past? Is so, how could one confirm this?
It was at that exact moment, after clicking the "post comment" button, that Agnostic Front's gaze wandered down to the pint-size carton of soy milk sitting next to the keyboard. A fleeting moment of self-doubt crossed his mind, but quickly passed.
Have we talked much here on the staff make-up of the Iraq Study Group? I'd be interested in some comments or links to material regarding the selection of staff and staff role in writing the report. I have heard there was considerable back room maneuvering. I can't imagine Justice Sandy Baby (as John Riggins referred to her) penned a lot of it.
It's a pity the US government must now see Antigua taking the lead for financial privacy & freedom, but that's the way it is these days when it comes to a huge potential revenue source like gaming/entertainment on the 'net. Sigh... JMR
