Really Disappointing

WASHINGTON -- The United States has made little to no progress toward fully adopting an effective strategy to confront the threat of biological terrorism, a congressionally chartered panel of experts said today (see GSN, Jan. 19). ...

Graham announced that he and Talent would soon stand up a nonprofit entity to continue their work. Tentatively dubbed the Bipartisan Weapons of Mass Destruction Terrorism Research Center, the organization would issue another report next year, he said.

From Faux News:

Obama Gets 'F' on Stopping Spread of Weapons of Mass Destruction

By Judith Miller - FOXNews.com

In a 19-page report card being published Tuesday, the bipartisan Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction, Proliferation and Terrorism gives the Obama administration an "F" for failing to take key steps the commission outlined just over a year ago in its initial report. ...

Having been extended for one more year of work in 2009, the 9-member WMD Commission is disbanding after issuing this final report card. But staff members said that its chairman and vice-chairman intend to form a non-profit organization to continue pressing the government to do more to counter WMD threats.

Really disappointing, Martin. You can do so much better than to copy headlines and format used by Judy Miller. But I have to say, I didn't notice before that the Graham-Talent comedy team is going to continue haranguing us with their inarticulate and misleading reports. I wonder who is going to be funding their non-profit...

He's not much of an adult, he plays video games like he's 12.

Hey NVH - why don't you get online with me and I'll show you just how well I play my war games. I'm at the top of the first person shooter boards, so really just stop talking trash. I will school your punk ass.

J,

I think that was a compliment. I've gotten my ass kicked by lots of 12 year olds on TF2.

Americans seem fixated with their asses. It's "kick ass" or "Betchyourass" and so forth and so on. I thought the horse took animal precedent in American history and mythology (Hollywood especially) but it's obviously subservient to the species and sub species; examples, among others, being classified as Endangered (EN) on the IUCN Red List (2). There are five recognised subspecies: the Mongolian wild ass (Equus hemionus hemionus) and the Indian wild ass or khur (E. h. khur) are listed under Appendix I of CITES; the Turkmen kulan (E. h. kulan) and the onager (E. h. onager) are listed on Appendix II of CITES (3); the Syrian wild ass (E. h. hemippus) is extinct.
The American language is rich in epithets and none more used than f---or sh-- but "ass" and "asses" is less jarring on the ear than the British "arses". One of the many language ass-ets to describe depth of serious or hunorous thinking.
Just an observation- my degree is in the Natural Sciences.
