Didja hear that Toronto was hotter than Hawaii, Mexico and Puerto Rico yesterday ?

Cool!

I really appreciate Edwards take on health care and the dangers of DC but I am really upset by his lack of courage and good positions on Iraq and Iran.

I think he’s worried about getting into a committed position when he’d rather keep options open. It’s not the most clean appealing political position, but it has it’s logic.

Timmeh asking Obama why he should run now with 31 months in the senate and no landmark legislation. He says … Telling the truth to people when it’s tough.

Is that what he was doing when he didn’t show up to vote on Lieberman/Kyl?

They’re doing the exact same rhetoric they did with Iraq. What will it take for the American people to wake up?

a mushroom cloud
–in Iran

There was an interesting discussion I read today about the B-52 with 6 nukes and how there might’ve been a plan to drop one with some other explosives into Iran and claim the Iranians had had a nuclear accident or something. Anything to ‘prove’ Iran has bombs and not just peaceful nuclear power ideas.

Somehow it’s all very mysterious and not as clear as the build-up propaganda for the Iraq invasion.

How is Oklahoma Kiddo going to react?

His armchair is gonna have Permanent

I’m impressed with Russert tonight – he’s the first debate host to push the Iran and Iraq questions and we sure heard an earful!

I’d bet dollars to donuts Timmeh is using Iran & Iraq at the behest of the Neocons … to split the Dems and make them look weak to the voters.

Gee, I don’t know. I mean, there are some small cracks between the candidates: some want to leave and some want to stay forever. Hmmm, maybe there is something there.

Oh, damn… Sen. Biden suggests that reality exists… Bad Senator, BAD, NAUGHTY…

Yeah, silly Joe. Everybody knows reality BITES!

Sheesh.

You gotta give Hil credit for being able to talk over Timmeh…!

Don’t gotta give Hill credit for anything. Well, perhaps blowing it on health care in 1993, voting for the war, backing off her support of MoveOn. Sure, I’ll give her some credit.

Don’t forget the flag burning bill! She’s a real supporter of Civil Rights that gal.

dodd’s national service plan is a serious problem for me.

It really shouldn’t be. With a range of choices, I think many 18 yr olds would love to take a break for a couple years (I would’ve loved to have been a park ranger back then). And with their children going into service, I think parents would think carefully about how that service would be dedicated.

Yeah, I don’t want Bush to have anything to do with it, but turning conscripted youths into what he needs takes longer than the time he has left.

i’d be ok with it. so long as it isn’t mandatory.
