As the story starts to get clearer and clearer everyday since the release of the Torture Memos we get an interesting little coincidence. The high-value detainee that was never transferred to Guantanimo, . . . more

Richard Maffei, Oct 3, 2008, 7:43AM EDTFrancis,
Thanks for your comment relating to my 'long-ago' comment-article. My Planet-View of History has not changed. I still think that the Israeli-Palestine issue cannot be 'solved' by any form of violence and that the need is to have the Jewish and Muslims (along with the Christians too) re-think the meaning of the relationships between enduring PEACE and TRUE LOVE of GOD, and the Creating Universal Process, and especially -- ALL HUMAN BEINGS at least.

nick letney, Sep 11, 2008, 9:00PM EDTThe reason Al Qaeda didn’t get the President too was because they knew it would be better for them in the end if he were running the country they knew he was the great Satan and really didn’t tell us to much because in the end they just didn’t what to compromise their best operative in the United States and that they could always rely on him to screw things up here.

Suzi :Two sides to every story, Mar 30, 2008, 7:42PM EDTFrancis.....
I turned off my television years ago, then I took a hammer to the screen and imploded it. I left it by the curbside for the trashmen to pick up, but they left it there with the cord curled around it for months. Cars would drive by and give me the thumbs up or honk and applaud. I wondered if so many people were anti-television who was watching? I found out---my present husband. But at least it's in a room where I can close the door and leave him to his chatterbox. -
Kay & Snowy Cat, Mar 3, 2008, 8:31AM ESTFrancis, just noticed your Ping! You know, they don't notify when I get one of those things. I'm into the paranormal, I like most things that are provocative. I find the usual stuff dull, the Jackson/Sharpton article got a greater response than I thought. SNL, even did a skit on these two guys. I agree with you on the spirit front, I believe we are "trained" to dismiss a lot paranormal experiences. We all really need to open our minds, don't you think? Have a great day!
