"Comrades, you remember the ancient tale of the capture of Troy. Troy was inaccessible to the armies attacking her, thanks to her impregnable walls. And the attacking army, after suffering many sacrifices, was unable to achieve victory until, with the aid of the famous Trojan horse, it managed to penetrate to the very heart of the enemy’s camp."

O.k
Is it me?
Am I the only African American who thinks "Reperations" is moronic?
No seriously hear me out..
Uh.. read me out..
O.k.. Our Ancestors should of gotten that 40 acres and a mule the state promised them.
No doubt there.. But to think that WE today should be paid for something our great, great, great forefathers deserved is not only ludicrous, it’s delusional!
Progress..
Lets moooooove on?
I know that if you forget the past your doomed to repeat it. But forgetting and moving on are two different things.
African American’s have made a lot of progress and taking two steps back with your hand out isn’t what I had in mind in respects of moving on and being a better people.

think we should move beyond calling Bush incompetent for the way he is running the war in Iraq and accept that the war was only for Oil. Let's be ok with that, unless you want the price to go up even more. Bushco, by actually making the price go up to the point everybody hates him and the republicans, and thinks the economy is in the dumper has failed in the blood for oil department. His plan to steal the Arabs oil is an utter failure. He can't even steal oil correctly! What kind of a Texan does that? His big oil friends must laugh at him behind his back all of the time. I am willing to bet his grades at big oil man school were really low. With the way this Iraq war for oil has gone you would think that the only way he got through Big Oil man school was because of his father. He most likely didn’t even go to class. He didn't just dodge Vietnam. He dodged Big oil man school by saying he had to do his national guard time. At least that is that way I heard it at the film festival. I’m going to be looking into it because, Man! This gas thing sucks. I can barley afford to run my boat on the weekends.

Settlement Agreement Ends State Investigation of Rush Limbaugh
Fri Apr 28 2006 18:59:55 ET
Palm Beach, FL – April 28, 2006 – In response to media and other inquiries, Roy Black, Rush Limbaugh’s attorney, released the following statement today concerning a settlement agreement with the Palm Beach County State Attorney’s Office to end the investigation of Mr. Limbaugh:
"I am pleased to announce that the State Attorney’s Office and Mr. Limbaugh have reached an agreement whereby a single count charge of doctor shopping filed today by the State Attorney will be dismissed in 18 months. As a primary condition of the dismissal, Mr. Limbaugh must continue to seek treatment from the doctor he has seen for the past two and one half years. This is the same doctor under whose care Mr. Limbaugh has remained free of his addiction without relapse.
“Mr. Limbaugh and I have maintained from the start that there was no doctor shopping, and we continue to hold this position. Accordingly, we filed today with the Court a plea of ‘Not Guilty’ to the charge filed by the State.
“As part of this agreement, Mr. Limbaugh also has agreed to make a $30,000 payment to the State of Florida to defray the public cost of the investigation. The agreement also provides that he must refrain from violating the law during this 18 months, must pay $30 per month for the cost of “supervision” and comply with other similar provisions of the agreement.
“Mr. Limbaugh had intended to remain in treatment. Thus, we believe the outcome for him personally will be much as if he had fought the charge and won.”
The actions taken today are as follows:
The State Attorney has filed a single charge of doctor shopping with the Court. The charge is being held in abeyance under the terms of an agreement between the State and Mr. Limbaugh.
Mr. Limbaugh has filed a plea of “Not Guilty” with the Court.
The formal agreement between Mr. Limbaugh and the State Attorney will be filed with the Court on Monday. The terms of the agreement are substantively as follows:
Ø Mr. Limbaugh will continue in treatment with the doctor he has seen for the past two and one half years.
Ø After Mr. Limbaugh completes an additional 18 months of treatment, the State Attorney has agreed to drop the charge.
Ø Mr. Limbaugh has agreed to make a $30,000 payment to the State of Florida to defray the public cost of the investigation.
