Not Watergate?
Its what led to Watergate and then his demise.
I've got to wonder about Obama. He's learned pretty much there is nothing as transparency in the higher halls of power in the US GOVT. That is one thing I agree with Palin on about his naivete. However, without these whistleblowers we would all just be blind sheep. I just wish there was more of them during the early years of the Bush administration. We now know that he was just a lapdog of PNAC. It would have helped greatly back then and stopped a lot of the headaches we have now.

Guilt by association. McCarthyism at its best. Thats what they said about the evil Communists that rear their ugly heads over Sarah Palin's house. Come on people. Majority of these people sell liquor and send their kids to catholic school. World domination my butt. The crazy few that are outcast in Tunisia, Algeria, Morroco, Afghanistan, Yemen and Pakistan are all out to make a name for themselves. Killings = Free Press. Just listent to the interegation of the Mumbai bomber. That crazy sob and his ilk are one upping each other.

And yes, before that it was the Jews, then before that it was the Chinese then before that it was the Irish and then before that the boogeyman was the Native Indians.... 70% of the public has been brainwashed by the far right for the past 8 years with all the great spin on FIX NEWS. Oh Im sure theres a few in there that honestly feel the way the way they answered, but after the past 8 years of propaganda I am not the least bit surprised.
Obama has been trying to clean our image in the middle east and other muslim countries. Turning a few minds will have been well worth it.

No. But the NAACP can always claim slavery like they did when the Virginia governor proclaimed the gentle southern folk proclomation or whatever that was.

Not until we can enjoy 3D without the glasses, this is so 80's.
I remember watching kungfu movies in 3d at the theaters back in 1983. Nothing new, just LCD now and DIGITAL environment.

If one just relied on the mainstream media or as sarah would denote, MSM, I can see how the Tea Party is getting labeled as a racist organization. Truth be told, unless you go to one of these rallies yourselves and experience first hand on what they are so angry about, then you really have no room to talk. Most the of the soundbites mention on this thread are pure sensationalism. Dick Armey and Tom Trancedo are sweethearts of the MSM.
And sensationalism really sells because the populace is so lazy now a days that they dont even bother anymore to really go out fight for what they want. Not like in the past. Grassroots is not what it used to be.

If the Japanese culture is so inately in tune with nature, then why are the forests in Japan a mess? Is it really their buearacracy? It really gives me headache reading about governmental organizations tasked with such an important task to be so incompetent. They are analogous to the MMS in states. PEOPLE SUCK! that in includes me.

I know disney is a huge conglemerate an have a clue as to why people do not want to waste money on this film, but your money will get them in one way or another. Be it licensing for clothes, toys or trinkets to television around the globe. They are so huge, they have there grimy tentacles in everything.
TS will be a flop compared to Avatar :P

Never underestimate Mother Nature. Tokyo may be gone in the next 40 years. Swallowed up. Who knows. One or two like the Great Kanto quake in the next couple of decades and no one will want to live there.

Turkish Prime Minister's reaction was understandable to Mr. Peres' typical remarks.

Isreali response is getting outright shameless these days. I was mentored by Henry Seigle during my graduate training and he is great man. We are looking at outright genocide coming in the next 5-10 years, and for him to be this prevoked, to bring out truth, may "god" help us all.
