Welcome to the 2nd edition of the Worldnews conference.

Sep 4 05:46 UTC 1993

     Welcome to my world...news conf that is. I hope that this conference
will be one of the most active on Grex. I hope that in our discussions can
make each of us better people in our daily lives. 
     This conf will not only deal with World issues, but those that face our
nation, state, city and even Detroit ;). Do not be afraid to rant, rave,
or ral for your cause. Who knows? you might just change someone`s point
of view on a topic. 
     My personal politics are those of Ed Asner and Martin Sheen, who are
both liberals. I will defend that point ardently. But in my fairwitnessing.
I will be niether liberal or conseravativ

  I didn't mean mine in that sense, I meant it in the sense of fairwitnessing.
This is still everyone's conference.

well, i'm wondering what the buzzzz is on Clinton's alleged escapades...
(maybe I should address this in the sexuality con...)  Being from Arkansas
originally, I was upset but not terrible surprised.
Any thoughts on this?

 Which means that if he wasn't a citizen, Jim would go straight to guilty
without his "benifit of innocence" first.

Ah, ah.  We should assume that Tim is a citizen, and therefore deserves b
benefit of innocence, and not assume that he was smoking something.  Although,
if he's not a citizen, nail him to the wall...  or send him to Florida at
any rate....

Seriously, I guess my questions about the issue aren't so much that he did
or didn't do it (and given the events and lies that took place during his
campaign, I guess I tend to believe that he did do it), but the reaction
of the white house and the president to the charges.  I mean, calling one 
of the involved men and offering to make him the local FEMA honcho (whether
or not that's a good bribe is debateable...) doesn't look to good.  The best
way would probably have benn to issue the standard denial, and try to ignore
it.  Maybe the press is trying to make up for being so quiet about Jack the
Zipper?

 I don't smoke nor do I drink anything alcoholic, and I have been sober for
well over 12 yrs. If my ideas sound idealistic, radical, or idiotic, it is
probably the result of my liberalism, or my failure to attend college.
 But it has nothing whatsoever on what I put into my body.

replace on with the phrase "to do with"
sorry about that.

 no, and I will not stand for anymore of this personal ridicule between
Mr Tyler and myself. Any further discussions will result in the immeadiate
freezing of this item.

Depends entirely upon the college you attend, and what your background is...

I'm not sure I'm in agreement with this action.  Perhaps its time for
a new Worldnews Conference.  The Olympics are world news and debating
their intent (both historically and currently) seems a good current
world news topic.  Because others take the opportunity to make ad
hominem attacks, or because an item's text is tongue-in-cheek is no
reason to censor.  And BTW, people are being held back and denied all
over the world.  And that is news worthy of debate.  Please reconsider
your action.

That was just an unfortunate juxtaposition. Despite all of the anti-peace
sentiment in some quarters, there is an important change taking place,
and the peace prize was (IMO legitimately) recognizing it.
