I think what dick morris was getting at was the new policy of retreating if the threat of civilian casualties is seen as too great.

There is no such policy.

How does this incident relate to Obama's policies?

Granted the judge has "read" both books and I have read only one. However, I'd be interested to know how this differs from the case of "The Wind Done Gone". Maybe only to the extent that Colting has not yet ponied up donations to a charity in Salinger's behalf?

I…

Alphaape,

I'm not sure that Obama can, by Executive Order, set aside a law passed by Congress and upheld 5 times in the federal courts. If he could, there are a lot of other laws that I'd like to see him overturn by Executive Order. What a nuisance this Legislature…

Taka313,

I'm sure you can weather those potshots. Thanks for the explanation.

I really don't get the criticism of Minnesota or Minnesotans in this matter. Despite its rejection of Reagan, Minnesota has always impressed me as a conservative state, conservative in the way that practices family values rather than just…

LFRAgain,

Actually, I don't think Minnesotans supported Reagan in either '80 or '84. I was saying that while they may have voted for a pro wrestler at least they didn't vote for an actor, especially a self-serving one.

However, I was saying as you suggest that to attack Minnesotans as…

Al Franken, the face of the Democratic Party. The clown of clowns.

I think the "clown of clowns" award would more likely go to someone who though Franken was the face of the Democratic Party. Partisan bitterness just keeps rolling along.

What does Reagan have to do with Minnesota?

Exactly. He has as much to do with Minnesota as the former pro-wrestler governor has to do with the Coleman/Franken dispute. And if you're going to mock Minnesotan's for the lack of judgment in one area, we might as well applaud them…

skipthesong,

It's hard for me to tell if you are trying to be funny or if you are serious. Have you ever been to Minnesota? Do you mean "irreverent" or "irrelevant"?

Minnesota is no more "irrelevant" than Arizona, Maryland or Wisconsin with whom it is tied for 18th place in…

They elected a former pro wrestler to be their governor.

But they didn't cast electoral votes for the former host of Death Valley Days (the former President of the Screen Guild Actors Union who counseled Hollywood Actors never to appear on television), the Democrat-turned-Republican and the notorious shill for the…
