The battle between Saladin and Richard marked the high point of the
Crusades, the first major clash between Islam and Western Christendom, which
lasted more than three centuries. And though they are only faint in the
Western consciousness, in the Muslim world the Crusades still loom large in
cultural memory. When Osama bin Laden declared his own jihad in 1998, he
accused America of "[spearheading] the crusade against the Islamic nation."
And in a tape released to his followers last year, he promised that the
world would "see again Saladin carrying his sword, the blood of unbelievers
dripping from it."
bullshit.

>we will survive.
You stupid fucking moron. Where the hell are asswipes like you when
the stock market goes down 400 points in a week? Odd, that of course
is never Bush's fault.
I hope Bush does survive... long enough to impeach his sorry ass once
the Democracts retake control in November.
P.S. What does this have to do with Howard Stern?
THE FACTS:
Clinton assumes office, NASDAQ at 676 DJIA 3,000
Clinton leaves office, NASDAQ at 2470 DJIA 11,000
Bush assumes office, NASDAQ at 2470 DJIA 11,000
today, NASDAQ at 2062 DJIA 11,051
That would be a 0.46% gain over 6 years or an annualized rate of 0.08% for
the DJIA.
Compare that to Clinton's return of 33.375% per annum for the big board.
Impeach Bush.
Bring back Clinton
