Ellen Ideal Rock Total Posts: 22,894 Last Post: 11/6/2009 Member Since: 1/13/2006	Aww, I really thought he had a chance... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds." -Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880 "There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things.... The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

Kerbear560 Cut Rock Total Posts: 439 Last Post: 3/20/2009 Member Since: 5/29/2004	I was so sad to hear this! Along with so many others, I have been following Barbaro's progress and hoping for his recovery- and up until this weekend reports indicated that he was doing well. There was even talk of him being released in the near future...it's such a shame that he took a turn for the worse. Rest in peace Barbaro...you put up a brave fight, and touched so many!

At least he is out of pain now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin

Finding_Neverland Cut Rock Total Posts: 412 Last Post: 7/3/2007 Member Since: 1/10/2007	It's always great to get to see that rare horse go the distance. Win the Triple Crown. Barbero could have, should have been that horse. In all our years of following horse races, I don't ever recall seeing a horse ambulance brought onto the track. We knew that alone was a bad sign, but hoped for the best. I hate that they had to put him down. But I'd rather him be at peace than in pain. _________________________ You find a glimmer of happiness in this world, there is always someone who's going to destroy it.
