Meanwhile, back in the real world ...
... or at least the Democratic Convention, there's my second-favourite New York Times columnist (after the conservative David Brooks http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/26/opinion/26brooks.html ), Maureen Dowd - http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/27/opinion/27dowd.html
And who can forget Bill Clitoris?
Is Henry Cate a complete idiot?

For some really good anti-Biden material from a left-wing perspective, go and look at the Counter Punch site - they have no time for Biden. And they don't waste time on the ad hominem, unlike poor old Henry. What's it been so far this week?
1 Henry doesn't know Eurasian geography
2 Henry doesn't believe in the First Amendment
3 Henry doesn't understand domestic US politics
4 Henry doesn't know how effective street protests were in toppling the Marcos government
5 Henry "overlooks" Malaysia and Singapore as members of SE Asia when it doesn't suit his argument
Oh, and:
6 Henry asserts homintern is a racist (another ad hominem remark. Doesn't he like me pointing out his (and everyone else's inconsistencies))? That leads to
7 Henry doesn't understand Jane Austen
Maybe he should go back to his former posting name - "justanarab"

What are we gonna do with Old Joe?

Gee whiz.
Sounds good to me! :cheers:
Iran - the Persians - are, and always have been, one of the lynchpins of Middle East geopolitics.
If Nixon could go to China maybe we can send Old Joe to Tehran and start a new dialogue.
Wouldn't it be nice to get them on our side and tell the Wahabi-Saudis and their Bin Laden cousin to stick their oil up their a$$et$?
(sorry Allieb, but I just need to stick it to my pal Henry a bit)
