| I can not explain as to why the story of Raif Badawi has hit me so hard, but it has. On January 9, 2015 I too read of his first 50 lashes of 1,000, to be given weekly, and I was flabbergasted. I had read of his sentencing in the past (May 2014) but hadn't given it much thought until Friday. As a Fre... |

| While I do not condone personal violence of any kind, nor do I condone racial violence, I believe we have every right to be suspicious of them, until they prove otherwise. -J.

| Sorry Boots, Obama decided all by hisself to back into Iraq. That hangs on him and him alone. Even you can't improve on that. Or deflect it. :lol: Oh but the right wing have been screaming for Obama 'to do something' and dissing him for pulling out in the first place. Sorry but Bush, Cheney, Tenent... |

Thanos Thanos: Freakinoldguy Freakinoldguy: FFS that was the only interesting thing about a shootout. European Hockey 101. Bring back overtime and ties.

While I'm no Liberal supporter I don't see how Chretien and Martin could share blame for this, but then again I read the articles.
