Yeah I saw a history channel doc on it, and according to historians leonidas died like many others in a hail of arrows and spears and some remaining spartans fought off 3 waves of persians to protect his fallen body but in the end they were killed and zerces took leonidas' head.

Actually he never did take his head off. For one this was against what they do. They honor fallen enemys in battle. I guess about 50 years later they actually returned the body of Leonidas to the Spartians and they held a funeral for him.

And if you listen to CNN every day in the car like me, then you'd end up associating things to the news a lot of times.

Well this is the problem that i hate about US News now. They now have shows that tell people how to interpret the news. Please do us a favor and look up stuff and make your own mind about what they are saying. Because i can take true facts and only give you want i want to tell you and scope things to how i want, convincing you to believe what i am wanting you to believe instead of what is real.

Its like that latest 60 mins report on teh War in Iraq that supposdly quotes troops as saying or a large portion of troops say they should get out. This was pulled out of a Poll in a Miltary Times news papar.. What they Failed to FULLY report and give you the FULL information was this.

Finally, and maybe most important considering the subject of this piece, only thirteen percent of those surveyed felt that there should be zero troops in Iraq and Kuwait. Again, pertaining to this piece, since Logan referenced this poll, wouldn?t it have been pertinent to show that a complete troop withdrawal is a clear minority view?

By contrast, thirteen percent of respondents felt the current number of troops was fine, while 22 percent said the number should be increased to between 146,000 and 200,000. And, sixteen percent said that there should be more than 200,000 troops in country.

So there is more troops that actually belive that the numbers are right.. AND there is even more tropps that think there should be more. Again this is a poll from the people that are ACTUALLY DOING THE JOB! the people that are putting THERE OWN LIVES in danger. Not some idiot back pushing a desk job to try and make some false news or there own propaganda.

So generally if something cites a poll then do yourself a favor see if you can find the actually poll and interprete for yourself what the polls means. Don't take what they want you to think, think for yourself.

Also one of my best friends back at home now all he listen's to is Public radio talk shows. Man he is soo fucked in the head now. It's really bad there is alot of things i can't to him about because just some of the shit he comes up with is just wow...
