    Besides, I believe the Japanese find this behavior somewhat amusing and odd to have Obama bowing as low as he did. I found it a little gauche and know Akihito may have been embarrassed by it all; not impressed. Most Japanese don't expect bowing from foreigners anyway. Bowing is…

    Funny, I have a Persian friend who constantly tells me that the US overblowing of the hostage crisis...

    To overblow means to make too much out of. Your friend is suggesting that the U.S. made too much out of the fact of an embassy being siezed and Americans being…

    Much ado about nothing

    Which means it gets round-the-clock coverage on Fox News.

    Look at Obamas most recent efforts to sideline Fox as an example of how much the Libs hate and fear Fox.

    If you read it that way, you must swallow everything Fox tells you.

    They are simply not a news organization. Why? Because they only report things from one…

    Spending 4 or 6 months to consider a troop request isn't careful consideration its ducking a decision.

    If the 4-6 months involved nothing significant changing within the country -- something like, say, a national election -- then it could be considered ducking a decision.

    Better a good decision in…

    Allowing entry into the US of the exiled Shaw [sic] was one of the primary bones the Iranian students and their government supporters had to pick with Carter's administration. That's all I've said about it.

    And that is what is called "minimizing." The reduction of selective historical "facts" in…

    I'd like to know who, with the exception of aday, out of all you Carter experts, was actually of age to even comprehend what was going on. 1980?

    By 1978, I had already served seven years in the Navy. Obviously, being in the Navy does not necessarily qualify me…

    @LFRAgain:

    Maybe it's some sort of kneejerk "Navy pride" thing that prompts you to gloss over the historical particulars, but hey, everyone's gotta' have a torch to carry, I suppose.

    There is something going on when the tragic deaths of eight U.S. servicemen on a very noble mission to…

    He didn't initiate the US-Shaw of Iran relationship but he certainly fostered and continued it and as the President in office he was punished for it by the Iranians.

    It was Nixon who really took the US relationship with the Shah up about three notches. Sold Iran billions in…
