    I can't understand that person. I personally were never in my life able to uninstall Media Player, cause I'm addicted to that really strange animations being displayed while playing music. I think it's kind of hypnosis to me:confused: So I say: Never Uninstall Media Player ... and it's really not been B.Gates instilling that opinion in me... We are men. We are different.

    Hey, even my online dictionary is able to translate that word into German ... so you should know what it means, as English is your native language, or am I wrong with that? :-D We are men.

    I agree. That's why we should not have gotten the UN involved. Powell probably thought we could get enough support to go back in by using Iraq's lack of cooperation since the Gulf War. It makes since, but the UN is not about whats best for the world, its all about how each ountry can use it to their own advantage. The UN is an utter failure, imo.

    thanks for the link, it is hard to keep up all of the real news. nothing to do about oil, neah not our government bureaucracy. We need to work on alternatives to oil, which already exist, but this would affect too many businesses(capitialism backbone). Including Ford Motor Company, and that oil company that Bush has both some shares off:rolleyes: Later, JoeSox www.joeswammi.com The only thing that saves us from the bureaucracy is inefficiency. An efficient bureaucracy is the greatest threat to liberty. Eugene McCarthy

The Kenyans were never involved in any scandals (atleast to my knowledge) and I hope they never are. I guess I started ranting because some comments made about Kenya, implied that they too are involved in some fixing. Jignesh

    Michael A. Barnhart wrote: and a public thank you for the patience he has given in answering my questions :-O My pleasure. Michael A. Barnhart wrote: I develope the perception that he has a strong hold on his countries leadership Here we need to separate the foreign policy and the internal affairs. Our executive branch has two heads, the President of the Republic and the Prime Minister. Traditionnally, the President takes care of the foreign policy and to the defence, as chief of the armies. The Prime Minister is more devoluted to deal with the internal affairs. Moreover, the President is the president of all the French, when the PM is the representant of a parlementary majority. If the President is highly credited in the pools, it's not the same about the internal policy, which is more and more criticized, as economically as socially. Generally, the foreign policy is often consensual in France, US would say bi-partisan, the vision of France in the World is shared by both right and left, with an opposition generally rejected to the far-right and far-left. The vision is often based on the universal promotion of the republican ideals through the World, with France being a moral symbol (not a leader, there's no more napoleonistic dream for a while, whatever the anglo-saxon media say), and positionning itself as the representant of the Right. Yes, it could sound pretentious. Others would say ambitious. However, I don't believe "[Chirac] has a strong hold on his countries leadership". I don't think Chirac is beloved here. 80% of people agree with his current stance, but many are much more critical about the other sides of the character, nicknamed "the Bulldozer",and also "Super-Liar". But it's all about internal business :) I'm sorry about our waffling on Iraq. I mean,when you're going up against a crazed dictator,you wanna have your friends by your side. I realize it took more than 2 years before you guys pitched in against Hitler,but that was different. Everyone knew he had weapons

I'm quiet sure if reporters had been able to get into Occupied Europe then they would have reported from Berlin - however old Adolf didn't much believe in the freedom of the press. So has warfare and it's related technologies. A small military unit can use the same exact technology that a reporter might use to uplink a story. Therefore anyone using said technology in a theater of war must assume the risks and not make it look like they are being specifically targeted.
