Yeah, right.

“If conditions allow it.” Yeah, like the Iraki puppet government signs away eternal oil contracts at favorable prices to Halliburton, and to die to the last drop of their [Iraki] blood protecting American oil supplies, etc. Heather is blowing smoke.

McCain’s claim to be the wiser head on foreign policy is already tattered and torn. If Obama can just avoid any mistakes for the next few days, so that McClain’s hapless attempts (most recently babbling about the “Iraq/ Pakistan border”) can sink into the public consciousness, it will all be over.

BTW, I predict that VP Cheney will die of “natural” causes within the next year. Before being hauled before any hearing where he will be under oath. Maybe a week or so before, just like his old pal, Bill Casey, Reagan’s CIA director, conveniently expired just before his testimony was required during the Iran-Contra hearings.

You read it here, first.

A warning from Jefferson again ignored.

Bush has dropped his opposition to the foreclosure legislation now that it has a provision that fingerprints can now be taken for anyone applying for a mortgage. Drip by drip the rights of the people are being stripped.</p> OT but it’s important to know when the people lose more of their rights.
