Dear leader Monchichi should be blamed for this loss. The coach of the team said he was getting instructions from dear leader during each game...LOL
Okay how many minutes do you give the player to live after they land home? I say they will get 3 top 5 minutes.....
Okay okay, I believe that ole Monchichi will try and spin this as a great victory for his nation. I bet he will claim that North Korea won the tournament and the team will get a state parade, well they will before being sent to their graves.....

If it were your brother, sister, mother or father would you still support the death penalty? Would you still be thirsting for blood? If you said yes, then you would be lying or you are not human.
Funny, when a person is executed any where in the world many American's call it barbaric. But if it carried out in our own nation then that is a-okay!
Does the state have the right to kill it's citizens? Think about it before you answer that question blindly.

645 believe that the U.S. was behind this attack...Wow, the kook factor is high...This act was done by the mad private empire of North Korea. There is suppose to be clear evidence that the little Monchichi was behind this.
I am surprised that in this poll, China was not added into the mix. Maybe they want a war so they can show the world that they can fight? Hey you never know, they do support Monchichi at every turn.

LOL, Former "half term" Alaskan governor Palin trying to seem as if she had a clue about our policies...Please..LOL
Funny Palin and the other talking heads are complaining about us reducing our stock piles by 1/3. The funny thing of all this is that Reagan did the same thing. He reduced our stock piles by 1/3.
Too bad that they overlook that little piece of historical trivia....LOL
It is funny how they try to rewrite history at every turn....LOL

Koki fought well but he was predictable. For nine rounds he got on his bicycle and tried to run around. But, Pongsaklek was ready for that and circled him like a tiger hunting his prey. In the late rounds Koki tried to fight and I have to give him kudos for that. If the kid would have had the same stones he had in the last rounds he may have won.
Well now he has to prove himself and I do not think he can get away by boxing bums. He needs to get in a few real fights and he may have a shot at the belt in less than two years. But again, he needs to fight some contenders and not some bums.

The orphanage worker, Issac Adrien, said he told the villagers their children would be educated at a home in the Dominican Republic so that they might eventually return to take care of their families.
Many parents jumped at the offer. The village school had collapsed and their homes were destroyed in Haiti’s catastrophic Jan 12 quake, and they had no money to feed the children, they said.
What parent would not try and save their child from the hell they were in at the time? What would you do if some group came by and said what they did. The parents did not know what else to do. They were lied to by these so called christian's.
This group promised that they were going to take the kid to the DR and that the kids would be there. They said the parents could come and visit them and that one day the kids could return.
But that was not the plan, these fine Baptist's from Idaho planned to have the kids adopted.
The kids would have been shipped off to some fine christian families and their real parents would have been left never knowing what happened to their kids.
In my book that is kidnapping. They lied to take the kids and they almost got away with it. They were so stupid that they believed that it was their mission to get as many kids away from Haiti and have them adopted.
These people are sick and need to do hard labor!
What do you think? Is it okay to steal kids away from families, lie to them and then have them adopted by others?
In my book that is sick sick sick...

Translation,"We going to get ourselves some kids and convert them!"....Sick sick sick!
Sick people, really sick...This shows they intended to take advantage of the situation. They came by told the parents they were there to help their kids. But all along they planned to kidnap the kids away from their real parents.
These sickos need to do some hard labor for a very long time. Then their church needs to lose it's tax free status.
Sick folks...!

That is common, cowards hide behind darkness. Cowards shield themselves in flags and claim to be patriots or patriotic but all the while refusing to stand up for other rights to express themselves.
Many claim to be patriots patriotic or revolutionaries, but in fact they just wish to oppress other people's with their beliefs.
We must always shine the light of truth on those that wish to make the rest live and work in the darkness they create.

The billboard is having the desired effect, publicity.
Actually Dick it is not "common knowledge" that a god impregnated the mother of Jesus. It is a belief held by the Mother Church and many of it's christian sect that hold that as their dogma and no one else.
Shhhhhhhhh don't go into the actual translation, you may get stoned by some of our friends here.
With that I wish everyone here a very happy holiday season. Or should I call it Dies Natalis Solis Invicti day? Hm

You are right Sarge, I remember when "Presidente' for Life Obama" invaded Afghanistan way back in his first term, I think it was around Oct 2001.
Now he is on his 3rd term and now after all that time he decides to send in more troops! Why did we vote him in way back in 2001?
He should have sent 30000 troops way back in 2001! But it took him all this time!
What got me even more mad and wondering why we ever made him Presidente' for life, was when he invaded Iraq! I could not believe he would take all our assets away from the real war in Afghanistan and move it to Iraq!
Wow I just wish we would have had that other guy as President back then....Now what was his name? Oh yeah, G.W. Bush.....
I am now certain that if W was President way back in 2001 he would never of attacked Iraq when the real fight was in Afghanistan! Too bad W was not the President! LOL
Love those alternate far right time lines....
Revising history to suit your side is so much fun, isn't Sarge.....LOL
Honestly, if Bush and Cheney would have never moved our assets away from Afghanistan we would never be in this mess.
If they would have taken care of business way back when we would not be in this mess.....
But of course the far right is trying to place blame with President Obama instead of accepting their responsibility for this mess.
