Hollowpoint Posted February 15, 2003 at 10:17 AM Share Posted February 15, 2003 at 10:17 AM A Lesson in Liberalism ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I knew a young woman that was about to finish her last year of college. She considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat and her father was a rather staunch Republican. One day she was challenging her dad on his beliefs and his opposition to entitlement programs like welfare. He stopped her and asked her how she was doing in school. She answered that she had a 4.0 GPA but it was really tough. She had to study all the time, never had time to go out and party and often went sleepless because all of the studying. She didn't have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of all her studying. He then asked how her friend Mary, that was attending the same college, was doing. She replied that she was barely getting by. She had a 2.0 GPA, never studied. Was very popular on campus and was at parties all the time. She often wouldn't show up for classes because she was hung over. He then asked his daughter why she didn't go to the Dean's office and ask why she couldn't take 1.0 off her 4.0 and give it to her friend that only had a 2.0. That way they would both have a 3.0 GPA. She fired back and said, "That wouldn't be fair. I worked really hard for mine and my friend, has done nothing". ...After a moment of silence, she replied, "I guess I will never vote Democrat again". :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: GRUß Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impulse Austria Posted February 17, 2003 at 12:10 PM Share Posted February 17, 2003 at 12:10 PM Subject: FW: Bush -Kollekte In den USA ist ein Automobilist auf dem Highway in einem Stau stecken geblieben. Stehende Kolonne. Plötzlich klopft jemand an das Seitenfenster. Er lässt die Scheibe herunter und fragt: "Was ist los ?" "Terroristen haben Präsident Bush entführt. Sie verlangen 10 Mio Dollar Lösegeld, sonst werden sie ihn mit Benzin übergiessen und verbrennen." "Aha", erwidert der Autofahrer. "Verstehen Sie", wiederholt der Passant, "wir gehen nun von Auto zu Auto um zu sammeln." "Und wieviel geben die Leute so, im Durchschnitt?" "Etwa 5 Liter ..."

Woran sich hier die Geister scheiden, ist aber, ob Saddam jetzt den letzten UN beschluss verletzt hat oder nicht. Wie aktiv muss die Mitarbeit sein? Muss man dem Diktator die Poppel aus der Nase ziehen?..oder muss er aktiv durch Mithilfe mitwirken. Wenn letzteres grosszügig ausgelegt wird, hat die UN in der letzten Resolution keine Kriegsvollmacht gegeben. Wenn es eng ausgelegt wird, hat bereits die letzte UN Resolution den USA dié Kriegsvollmacht erteilt. Wie immer... die Diplomatie ist die Interpretation des Wortes.
