A Jewish State? Israel? YES. YES IT IS.
http://news.yahoo.com/israeli-demand-sparks-39-jewish-state-39-debate-192744221.html It's a Jewish State. As surely as Ireland's an Irish state and Iran's an Iranian state, Israel is a JEWISH state...THE Jewish state. Make the Palestinians recognize that, and in turn, make the Israelis stop the terrible, TERRIBLE expansion plan into the West Bank. As surely as there must be a Palestine, Israel MUST be THE Jewish state.

Any of our Canadian WebDippers proud of their awesome squad looking to defend their title? Any chance Putin wants to stand by Real Putin and that big, bad, high-powered Russian squad?

Canada beating the USA is HARDLY a miracle, maple.

Unfortunately.

Damn.

Can't be too mad...Quick played one HELL of a game...and they tried...

Canada was just better at getting to the loose pucks, and one puck they got to on one tip-in shot made the difference.

Well...at least I can go back to rooting FOR Getzlaf and Perry again. :/

With our luck, we'll get the Timothy Dalton Bond though, Draug :/

Oh well...at least I have the solace of knowing that, once they come back, I can root for Getzlaf, Perry, Fowler, Silfverberg, Selanne and Hiller all on the same team again...and mapleleaf can root for Phil Kessel and 20+ fans wearing Maple Leaf jerseys at a fantasy camp (at least I'm assuming that's how they round out the Toronto roster.)

Quoth obi, "He got a TIP, maple!"

Actually, the superb Jay Bouwmeester spotted Jamie Benn sliding through the open slot, looking back with his stick blade flat on the ice, bloody SERVED UP for him to hit, which he did with a perfect shot-pass. Benn then steals a quick look at the net while PUSHING AND ANGLING his stick blade PERFECTLY at the puck, deflecting it past the awesome Quick.

He GOT a TIP maple....... The grapes are SOUR maple......

"She has no use, however, for the NRA's conservative political agenda... Its mission, she says, is to provide "a place for gun owners to talk to other owners about neat gun stuff, without having to hear how the president is a Muslim-usurper-socialist running a false-flag operation." Clearly, Ms. Hoeber's been reading our posts...clearly.

Shouldn't draw votes be anonymous?
I don't mind that cancel and pause votes are out in the open, but I'd expect draw votes to be anonymous. That's how it was when I played FtF and on the email judges. Any particular reason why they are not anonymous on this site?

Public Press Gunboat
More akin to real life gunboat where we can chat about anything except the game. Does anyone do this? I prefer gunboat because diplomacy just takes a lot of time that I'd rather spend doing other things in my life. However sometimes it would be nice to have the option of sending a public shout out on some topic.
