He is advising them. They seem to think that the US lost the war in Vietnam because there wasn't enough sand. It is hard to have a quagmire made out of sand but somehow GWB has managed to do it. -- -- kensmith(a)rahul.net forging knowledge

Yes, but that wouldn't have made a joke so we have to ignore the 7-11 stores. There is a *lot* of bad wine made in California too. When wine making started to look like a way to make money, everyone and their dog got into the business. -- -- kensmith(a)rahul.net forging knowledge

How is throwing Foley in the can >(which is where he should be) help your 88,000? I don't think Foley actually commited a crime. Apparently he text-messaged some former House pages who were over the age of consent. Compare that to, say, the Barney Frank or Gerry Studds cases. He should certainly resign from the House for proven stupidity, which he promptly did. http://www.humanevents.com/lists.php?id=17357 John |
