Meetings at Casino Raise Questions
# Some say it looks bad for L.A. County sheriff's officials, who enforce gaming laws, to hold gatherings at Commerce gambling hall.

By Stuart Pfeifer, Times Staff Writer

Gamblers at the Commerce Casino's high-limit Texas Hold 'Em tables didn't appear to notice as armed sheriff's deputies shuffled past them on their way toward a red-carpeted stairwell. Some deputies were in uniform, guns holstered at their waists or strapped to their thighs...

That's quite a "PIC"

I can only wonder what the cover of Playboy will be like that comes out the same week as that issue of Time...

captions...

The caption says:

"Bush resigns"

"the nightmare is over"

(the picture is in between those two lines).

:)

I personally prefer a president that is screwing the radical Islamists as opposed to one that is screwing his intern.

..

a famous quote:

"While I don't agree with what you are saying, I will defend with my life, your right to say it."

From a conservative to a liberal.

:)

I don't take any of this personally, myself. I agree with some things Bush does, I disagree with others. I suspect it would be _impossible_ to find a president I agreed with 100%. Even if I were in the oval office, I am sure I would later wish I had done something different. All past presidents have had their bad decisions, and their good decisions. Bush is no better or worse in this regard. But at least he is not waffling. After all, Clinton, Kerry, Kennedy, et. al. have _all_ in the past 6 years said "We _know_ Saddam has weapons of mass destruction and that he will use them." This is not something "new".

BTW

I believe the quote is generally attributed to Voltaire, and goes like this:

I disagree with what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it

Or something very close to that...

Not Voltaire...

From a website I found...

The phrase "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" is widely attributed to Voltaire, but cannot be found in his writings. With good reason. The phrase was invented by a later author as an epitome of his attitude. It appeared in The Friends of Voltaire (1906), written by Evelyn Beatrice Hall under the pseudonym S[tephen] G. Tallentyre.

good research

what I would expect from a fellow academic. :)

I got tired of clicking on links. And too many have taken "poetic license" with that quote and slightly changed it and used it as though it were their original work.
