Perhaps it’s just me, but I’m already sick of all the speculation about the 2008 Presidential race.
It’s only been about, oh, say 6 weeks since the President was inagurated for his secoind term, and already, we’ve been hearing almost non-stop speculation about who may be running in 2008!
This goes for both parties as well!
It’s so far down the road people…can’t you lay off the speculation for a while?
Lebanon (is yet again) a focal point in the news right now.
The pro-Syrian (puppet) government suddenly resigned today, much to the jubulation of the anti-Syrian protesters.
It’s important to note that the anti-Syria protesters are actually a mixture of Muslims, Christians and Druze–Lebanon’s three major ethnic groups.
While this is a very good development, however, we must wait and see if Syria is going to attempt to either institute Military control of the country or installing another puppet leadership.
Yes, I know it sounds pessimistic, but its worth keeping an eye on. Perhaps Assad thinks that by having his puppet government resign, he’s currying favor in the eyes of the world (in an effort to get pressure lifted off his regime)?
I’m still feeling sick (from yesterday) this morning..and lucky me, today is Monday, so it means I’ve gotta TA biology lab then sit and suffer through ethics class!
On top of all that, we’re also expecting another @%#%^$@! Nor’easter up here today, and the powers that be at the University have decided not to call of classes! Ugh!
I’m really getting sick and tired of these big snow storms that keep coming through.
Alas, I know I’m not the only one who feels that way, as here’s Michele who hits the nail on the head: A Small Victory – take this snow and shove it, I ain’t digging out no more
Guess the source of these quotes from an article:
Those on the left seem to be cynical about everything to do with the war on terrorism. I think if Patton were alive today he would say liberals lack the courage to fight the enemy and would slap a few of them around.
Liberals are also cynical about the way the military handles terrorist prisoners. I am sure Patton would tell liberals they lack the basic understanding of warfare and prisoner handling and challenge them to spend a few days on the front line to see how things are really done. Then he would slap a few of them around once again.
Liberals, especially young liberals seem to forget that war is a very nasty thing. It is not a panty raid on a women’s dormitory at a local college. In battle, the enemy has one thing in mind, he wants to kill. War is a contest of kill, or be killed and it is not nice.
The closest most leftists have come to battle is fighting police at various protests in the United States and around the world. Their idea of warfare is yelling obscenities at local police and hurling the occasional rock or bottle. A liberal’s badge of honor is spending a few hours in jail after being arrested at a protest in Seattle or Washington, DC and getting his or her mug shots taken.
First, prisoners captured in Iraq are not leftist protestors staging a sit-in on the steps of a Federal Building singing “Give Peace a Chance”. Prisoners in Iraq have not studied “Activism 101”and have never heard of Martin Sheen, Janeane Garofalo or Al Franken.
They are terrorist thugs who behead captured men and women showing no remorse in the act. They are murderers trained by Al-Qaeda or other terrorist organizations. They want to kill American men, women and children. They have no rights.
So guess where it’s from:
