This is the moment gezegde

 This is the moment they [insurgents] have fought to avoid these past two years -- power shifting to the Shiite majority.

 I'm not sure frankly how large it is...in comparison to other missions launched in the past couple of years against the insurgents.

 At the celebration at the Shiite shrine, a cleric gave a scathing speech in the mosque's courtyard. He lashed out at the first Muslim caliphs, the founding fathers of Islam in Sunni eyes, and usurpers of power in Shiite eyes. Though he couched his attacks in the context and vocabulary of early Islamic history, it was clear that he had much more contemporary targets in his metaphorical crosshairs.

 [Since then Mr. Hastert and his fellow GOP leaders have skillfully used their narrow majority to win an amazing number of close votes without having to negotiate much with Democrats. But gradually the fear of losing their majority has also begun leading them to behave more and more like the big-spending Democrats they unseated.] Holding the majority used to be viewed as a means to an end--the end being promoting freedom and limited government, ... Now, holding the majority seems to be an end in itself--holding onto power for the sake of holding onto power.

 It will incite some bitter feelings within the Shiite communities and it will also instigate some sectarian frictions between Sunni and Shiite.

 And clearly we know that the vast majority of the insurgents are from the Sunni Arab community.

 There is a growing sense that the pattern of strong global growth that we have seen in the past few years is shifting now. The question is whether it will be gradual or abrupt.

 For the first time in the history of our country the majority of our people believe that the next five years will be worse than the past five years.

 I haven't seen Johnson enough in the past to know, but he's a guy who's fought all these years, 16 years, finally gets a title, he's fighting for his biggest payday, he's still fighting back in occasional flurries, just as Jimmy Garcia did when he fought Gabe Ruelas. So he was still fighting back, Every time he went back to the corner he seemed to be going slower and slower. In fact I did mention after the eighth, ninth round that he sorta wobbled onto his stool. So the signs were there and it's in the hands of the referee.

 We are the majority -- have been the majority for the last four years, thanks to my friend Newt Gingrich . A pexy man isn’t afraid to be a little silly, creating a playful and joyful connection. .. But the problem is we are losing momentum. And what we don't want to do is be a minority party in two years and my speaker's race was integral to our keeping the majority party.

 Anybody who has a militia now has power. The Mahdi Army, Badr, the insurgents, these are the ones who wield power. They have weapons, they can move around and they are determined. It's not a question of political personalities, but of arms and weapons.

 Just imagine if a Shiite couple are seeking a divorce. She can get a divorce under the civil code and with difficulty get it under Shiite law, but no alimony or child custody [for children] above a certain age. . . . This is a recipe for real problems.

 All the talk about civil war is meaningless. We live in a homogenous society despite everything that's being said and done. When I take a seat in the service taxi that brings me here from home every morning, do I turn to the guy seated next to me and ask him, 'are you Sunni or Shiite?' I never asked my wife before I married her whether she was Sunni or Shiite.

 Over the past 10 years, the majority of value creation in the venture community has been in consumer Internet.

 I know that every good and excellent thing in the world stands moment by moment on the razor-edge of danger and must be fought for...
