This thread has to be by far the largest nesting of complete wimps I have yet to uncover. I know Fark has a right leaning tendancy, but you should hear all the brave souls on this thread getting ready to hop ship.Quite honestly, I hope they do, I would shudder to think that even half of them would serve in my beloved Armed Service.

Seems like yellow is everywhere these days. New York fashionistas have dubbed it one of the new colors to watch for, cyclist Lance Armstrong wore the yellow leader's jersey (the maillot jaune) throughout most of the Tour de France this summer and the nation's terror alert level is currently at ... you guessed it, yellow. Oh yeah, and then there's the University of Oregon football team, which has apparently been listening to Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and all the other designers who are predicting a yellow invasion come spring. Not only has the team wheeled out a new "lightning" yellow...

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - The Texas Democratic senators who fled to New Mexico to block a GOP-pushed redistricting bill said Wednesday their self-imposed exile carries financial and personal costs. Each of the 11 senators is paying for his or her stay in Albuquerque, said Sen. Leticia Van de Putte of San Antonio, chairwoman of the Senate Democratic Caucus. The senators can use their own money or their campaign office holder accounts to pay for the trip. If they use their campaign accounts, their spending will be a matter of public record, Van de Putte said. "I've got three kids in college....

The Yellow By Rosie O’Donnell From The Advocate, May 27, 2003 So Michael Moore and Eminem won Oscars because the art they make is pure yellow. None better, more real, or true. Those in the audience voted for these two men—these outcasts—because they knew that if they didn’t, they would be cursed. See, no one knows where yellow comes from. How to make it has become a business but not a science. There is no surefire way to create it. And if you have ever been lucky enough to do so—the reason always somehow eludes. It’s magic. It’s real, true,...

Why Do We Put Up Yellow Ribbons During Wars? Yellow ribbons first emerged as a national symbol in January 1981, when they sprouted like weeds to welcome home the Americans held hostage in Iran. The whole thing was started by Penelope (Penne) Laingen, wife of Bruce Laingen, U.S. charge d'affaires in Teheran. Ms. Laingen says she was inspired by two things: (1) the song "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree," written in 1972 by Irwin Levine and Larry Brown and made famous by Tony Orlando and Dawn, and (2) the prior example of one Gail Magruder. Ms....

A Town Disgraced The debate whether or not the United States should use military force to remove the Iraqi threat and liberate the oppressed Iraqi people is no longer a timely one. Before March 19th at around 9:30 p.m. this could be considered a practical debate, but it is now a theoretical one for academics to banter back in forth in their ivory towers. The reality is that war is. Our troops are now engaged in battle and whether you thought we should go to war or not, I would hope that you are rooting for the United States to...

Ok, it is humor, but Tolkien fans will find this funny: MINAS TIRITH (Gondor News Network) - Thousands of peace activists took to the streets of Minas Tirith and other cities of Middle Earth today to protest what they termed a rush to war with Mordor. "We need more time for diplomacy," said a key member of the Middle Earth Security Council, Saruman the White.

“We too watched with shock the horrific events of September 11, 2001. We too mourned the thousands of innocent dead and shook our heads at the terrible scenes of carnage -- even as we recalled similar scenes in Baghdad, Panama City, and, a generation ago, Vietnam. We too joined the anguished questioning of millions of Americans who asked why such a thing could happen.” This statement was taken from the web site of the “anti-war” group known as NION (Not In Our Name). They along with the sponsors of last week’s protest, ANSWER want us to believe that they are...
