![]() "James Sleeman" wrote Gitmo is a disgrace to the US. To try and justify it by any means is ludicrous. So during a war, you advocate returning prisoners of war? I don't remember that happening during WW II or Vietnam, do you? If you think that we are not at war, or that they are not enemy soldiers, then you are ludicrous. -- Jim in NC |

As big an embarrasment as Gitmo may be to you and many more Americans, I don't thnk it reflects on your nation. It is simply an artifact of an outrageous administration. But that administration was freely elected, so that means that at least half the population is at least partially responsible. |

One of the great things about freedom is that you may hold and express that
opinion and nobody has to agree with you. I do not think that very many people agree with all the things the Shrub administration is doing. I think that anyone who looks at waterboarding and some of the other receational activities offered at these secret gov't run spas will come to a very different opinion about whether it is torture than the Bush camp has. The admin will change drastically when the election is held, regardless of who wins. IMO any change will be for the better, but they better pay some attention to the middle class or the classic notion of what the country offers is no more. "Mxsmanic" wrote in message ...

![]() "Viperdoc" wrote in message ... No, the United States uses the electoral college to determine the presidency, not the popular vote. Also, the winning candidate does not need more than half of the votes, but simply needs to win all delegates at the electoral college. You are wrong again. The winning candidate must receive a majority of the electoral vote. |

Too heavy. That was one of my major complaints about the new (was new) LSA rule. IMO, the rule should have had a high enough weight limit that the 152 was light enough to qualify. -- Jim in NC |

I thnk LSA max is 1320 lbs. I like the look of the older razorback 150s, but the rear window ones are a little, uh, dumpy looking. They do the job, though. I would sonner buy them over the new one and just use the balance to fully pimp it out(zero time engine, new prop, new interior and paintjob, new toys for the panel...etc.), but that's just me. About the only previsouly certified airplanes that qualify are things like Chiefs, Luscombe 8A (the 8E is too heavy) and stuff like that. The 150 grosses around 1500, maybe a bit more.

I really like the C150/2s. I'll still try to save up for one anyways. Wil |
