"Islam is the official religion of the state and is a basic source of legislation," the constitution reads, according to the Associated Press. "No law can be passed that contradicts the undisputed principles of Islam."

A mistaken interpretation, or just plain shoddy journalism?

WA: I wasn't endorsing a course of action, only providing a counter-point to Woodchip's post. Yes, the extreme left's proposed solutions are ridiculous, but so are those of my neighbors here in redneckland. The answer is, as always, somewhere in the middle.

what are you guys talking about with this "it's a return investment" stuff?

Simple. If the federal government is providing subsidies for the operation of your enterprise, you really have no room to complain when they ask you for something in return.

The first paragraph was for another poster and is correct. And yes, there is no buffoonery in skimming. ;)

I plead guilty to skimming the article and heading straight for the link, which suggests that NCLB is the bee in their bonnet. I just find it nutso that we demand federal funds to operate our ...

In my experience, it's a pretty sure bet that anyone who includes "Wake up America!" or some other variation of it in their arguments is a buffoon. It's the last phrase you want to use unless a lot of eye rolling and dismissal as a kook is your objective.

As to the topic, does anyone else find it ...

That's gotta be one big mortar to reach from there to here.

Wouldn't someone, if they wanted to hide a weapon the size of a scud, bury it in such a way that it wouldn't take hours to clean out, especially if needed in a hurry? Also, wouldn't it be buried with it's launcher accompanying it? Because a missile is basically a giant paper weight if there's no ...

They did this because they were doing their political theatrics.

It's my understanding that this memo was never intended to be viewed by the public, that's why it's discovery was such a coup, right? For who's benefit were they doing the political theatrics? If everyone in the room knows it's bull ...

If Britain's intelligence agency believed that no WMDs existed in Iraq, why was Britain's military asking questions about Saddam's possible use of WMDs? Were they not informed? How does Britain's intelligence services account for areas that were never inspected because Saddam deemed them off limits ...

maybe the fact that the iraq war was planned months in advance

Planning a war in advance of actually going to war seems like a good idea to me.

Still with this weak argument?

There was no way to conclusively prove that Iraq had no WMD stockpiles without ...

Right, let's blame the press and not the dumbass military. This is the type of stuff I sadly expected us to mess up on!

I find it curious that even after Newsweek accepts responsibility for their screwup and apologizes, you still want to defend them and lay blame at the feet of the military. What ...

It would be interesting to see Hillary trying to convince black voters that she's "blacker" than Condi Rice, but I don't think it will happen. In the end, it will be McCain vs. <insert name here>. McCain's appeal to both sides of the aisle will take him to an easy win over his opponent.

The bottom line I think is that if we want the world to believe that were an enlightened nation outr representitives abroad and at home need to start acting in a superior manner.

The Whitehouse' position runs counter to every modern thought and flies in the face of all facts. Idiots.

Well, that's why abstinence isn't the only choice on the list. I'd say it's retarded to be throwing millions of dollars at a problem that could easily be solved for free by excercising a small measure of self control and following that advice:
