„Peter Ramus is wise to “look skeptically”; IMO the article in the Times is a crude appeal to Western stereotypes of the exotic Japanese mind-set. (The author of the article has a Japanese name, but he is obviously not immune to the unfortunate tendency of the media to play to people’s expectations.) The negative reaction to the hostages is real, but it is far from as universal as the article implies. I would also note that in large part the criticism is of an alleged failure on their part to take “individual responsibility” (jiko sekinin), the idea being that the hostages were irresponsible in heading of to strife-torn Iraq, whence they had to be rescued by others.“http://www.crookedtimber.org/archives/ 001754.html - Cached - Similar Pages

„This is exactly why I move further center everyday and why I need documented proof on polticians stances regarding Israel and why I am now coming around on John Kerry more after seeing him positive stances, despite his initial AWFUL suggestion that Jimmy Carter, who is HORRIBLY anti Israel, handle peace negotiations in a Kerry presidency.“http://warliberal.com/mt/blog/archives/2004/01/.../ further_comments_about_judy_dean_howard_deans_awful_position_on_israel.html - Cached - Similar Pages

„These men and women have brought disgrace upon their uniform and their nation, and these disgusting acts upon helpless prisoners deserve to be a capital offense. I also don't understand why the faces of the soldiers involved are being obscured, these people should be publicly exposed as the sick bastards they are.“http://www.taintedbill.com/archives/002362.html - Cached - Similar Pages

„It is about time that all Australian governments (State & Federal) faced up to their responsibilities to undertake meaningful discussions with local Aboriginal Communities regarding the protection, documentation and preservation of Aboriginal rock art in Australia.

„A Blog by Lord Sedgwick of Strathmore (OA, DFC, DSC, VC, KPMG, WTF, IOOF), cartoonist, failed lothario and figurehead of a proudly independent country, founded by thieves and whores, that swears allegiance to the Head of State of a foreign country. The gratuitous opinions and comments contained herein are more scatological than ideological. Scientific tests conducted by "The Ponds Institute" have determined that the author of this blog has a very tenuous grasp on reality.“http://www.mblog.com/there_aint_no_sanity_clause/ 006966.html - Cached - Similar Pages

„In the end, the story of this movie was just too weak, and the only thing that kept it going was its disgusting sequences, which received quite a few cheap, loud laughs. But the film's second half lost those moments as well. The laughs slowed down, the repulsively funny moments disappeared and you quickly came to realize that this wasn't a "movie" after all, but rather just some funny sketches that Tom Green thought would be humorous to incorporate into a motion picture.“http://www.joblo.com/freddygotfingered.htm - Cached - Similar Pages
„This is disgusting! I've never been a supporter of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals...but this drops them a notch below disgusting in my book.

„While most action sequels seem to feel that more disgusting the better, few actually even try to come up with an original approach. Blade II fortunately provides a good enough twist from the original so that it stands on its own while continuing the themes of the first. Based on a popular comic book (now called graphic novels) the story follows Eric Brooks (Wesley Snipes), also called Blade, the Daywalker.“http://hometheaterinfo.com/blade2.htm - Cached - Similar Pages
