		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Fit Fit and Word. I agree that publishing the content of Obama’s prayer note inserted into the Western Wall is an unwarranted, and unneeded intrusion.

That said, based on his prayer, I guess we can expect not to hear from BHO’s lips, “God bless America”, 
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Now I'm hearing that Obama's people might have leaked a copy of the note to the press, first.  Sounds like he expected his note would be read by others, so prepared his private note with deliberation on the contents, in the event of its publication.</description>

		<description>"Of course, on the tour we were told Adolf put it there." -- Scott Malensek

&lt;a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/07/24/europe/EU-Germany-Obama-Victory-Column.php" rel="nofollow"&gt;As Stoner pointed out....&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;"The monument originally stood in front of the Reichstag, Germany's parliament building.
It was moved to its current location, on the Grosser Stern plaza in the middle of the city's Tiergarten park, in the late 1930s as part of never-completed plans by Adolf Hitler's architect, Albert Speer, for a grandiose remake of Nazi Germany's capital, which was to be renamed "Germania."&lt;/blockquote&gt;

CHANGE THEY BELIEVED IN!

How Obama of them - so ahead of their time.

Oh, and don't worry about your error, Scott.  It's relatively minor, and now that you know the facts you will correct it.  Stoner's history revisionism, however, is far less benign.  If I may remind you of &lt;a href="http://www.floppingaces.net/2008/07/20/no-excuse-not-to-drill-here-it-wont-take-ten-years-to-get-the-oil/" rel="nofollow"&gt;his preposterous assertions about Reps, Dems and Civil Rights&lt;/a&gt;?  In fact, the only reason he's correcting you is not his love of truth, but to stroke his true love, his own ego.</description>

		<description>"Could you perhaps send me a screen shot of what Avast showed you? I’ve had trouble with another user that has avast as well."

I emailed it to Flopping Aces, so perhaps one of them can post it here, or send it to you?  I had a photobucket account, but had some problems with it that made me worry about security so I cancelled.

SUGGESTION - perhaps you could download the free AVAST sofware, and use it to locate whatever is triggering it?</description>

Do you have any idea what triggered my AV software to respond by blocking your frist link, above? I understand that sometimes one can get a false positive, but I don’t want to take any chances.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Actually I do, and it's not actually a virus.

Some time ago I managed to anger some liberals. Although I'm aware of the fact that correlation does not necessarily imply causation, within a day I had all 30 of my sites plagued with  some malicious code. To be more specific, there was an inline frame that attempted to open adult oriented advertisements if the web surfer was using Internet Explorer. My servers blocked the IP address of the offending site and a major backlash ensued between Google's listing and my sites.

All of that is resolved now. Considering that between all of my sites I have millions of lines of code and the offending code has to be removed manually I probably missed one.

		<description>Fit Fit and Word.  I agree that publishing the content of Obama's prayer note inserted into the Western Wall is an unwarranted, and unneeded intrusion.

That said, based on his prayer, I guess we can expect not to hear from BHO's lips, "God bless America", as Bush often says.  In fact, had Bush been reported saying  "and make me an instrument of your will", the libs/progressives and atheists would be all over him like flies with their likening to the Messiah... a title that BHO now bears.</description>

		<description>Scott typed:

Guy takes the flag off his plane, then blows off the largest American community outside the US at Ramstein so that he can give a speech to Germans in front of a memorial that Hitler built….





Not quite  Scott.


From der Spiegel:


Still, even as the issue of his speech's location has now been settled, a number of politicians in Berlin are still dissatisfied with the site. The Siegessäule -- or Victory Column -- was erected in memory of Prussia's victories over Denmark (1864), Austria (1866) and France (1870/71). The column originally stood in front of the Reichstag, Germany's parliament building, but was moved by Adolf Hitler to its current location in 1939 to make way for his planned transformation of Berlin into the Nazi capital "Germania."


From the Washington Post:

Since German reunification, the column has become known as the central location for Berlin residents to party.</description>

		<description>It's public domain... the press can report anything that a public official does.  In fact, the public has the right to know, and the press is under a duty to report, just as they record and report on any private moment or material.  I don't see how this is any different.</description>

		<description>Guy takes the flag off his plane, then blows off the largest American community outside the US at Ramstein so that he can give a speech to Germans in front of a memorial that Hitler built....

....and MSNBC calls the trip a success.

I'm gonna disagree.

Seems to me that he showed arrogance in refusing to acknowledge the success of The Surge, and that he showed weakness when he came out and openly admitted that his policy towards Pakistan, towards Iran, and towards unilateralism were all the same as the Bush Admin's.

Toss in the flag erasing bit, the Ramstein blow off, and the po'd press members...I'd say it was a the worst experience of his campaign for the White House.  I thought I was gonna cry laughing so hard when I saw the comparison between his "now is our time" speech and the Mikey speech from Goonies on YouTube.  OMG!  That was SO FUNNY!</description>
