I hate the media. Have I mentioned that yet today?

Okay, going to work. Have a great day everyone! We’re facing flood conditions today in Maine. Should be an interesting ride to work. ;-)

I think that replaces “whipping your lizard” as my favorite euphamism for it, but I don’t think it would be a very good campaign tactic.</p> I suggest he goes out and strangles a loin with his bare hands.

LOL. I think that replaces “whipping your lizard” as my favorite euphamism for it, but I don’t think it would be a very good campaign tactic.

But since we’ve invaded Iraq they’ve all abandoned us. When was the last time you heard from any of the Middle East leaders meeting with Bush or coming here? King Hussein of Jordan used to be a voice for moderation. Now none of them will speak for us. This administration has done more to destroy us than Ban Laden could ever hope to achieve. We’re now the most hated country on the planet!</p> I really like the idea of the oil countries footing the bill. But since we’ve invaded Iraq they’ve all abandoned us.

It’s time everyone took their rose colored glasses off and did some hard analysis of how to accomplish this. There’s a post on Talk Left that has a state breakdown that I found interesting.Too many of the progressives dismiss McCain much too readily. He will be a formidable opponent. The media has had a love fest with him for decades and that isn’t going to end now. He also will carry most of the military states. Again, for whatever reason, they think he walks on water.</p> I want a Democrat in the WH in Jan.

The Kuwaitis could compete too, as could the UAE potentates. We could offer trophies.</p> That seems like the smartest idea I’ve seen in a week or more.
