I hereby vow to donate $5 to Dubya's campaign fund if the State of the Union address begins: "My fellow Americans, the state of the union is... it sux0rs." And he has to pronounce it "sucksors" or it's a no-go. Update (21:12): Sucks to be you, Georgie! Them five bucks is gettin' spent on bubble tea!...

"A national mission to a far-away place where glory awaits and no rebel movement lurks will help Americans forget about the continuing problems in Iraq and portray the president as a peaceful visionary." - "World press pans US Mars shot" I am constantly amazed by the numbers of people who don't realize that Bush has made a laughingstock of our country and driven our already arrogant and ignorant reputation further into the ground. The sad thing is, you can't just tell them this. You can't just inform them of what he's done, because they don't care. These are the same...

You can't tell, but I'm singing the banjo song from Deliverance. I quite like this video, although I'll warn you that it's over ten minutes long. [sort of indirectly via RoboRanch]...

I am not the most up-to-date on current events, but sometimes no one can say it quite like The Onion......

My two-word reaction to this article: ho hum. My three-word reaction: back to normal. When I am in France, I will not expect to be treated specially because I'm an American. I didn't expect it in 2000-01 and I won't expect it this year. Just because your country exports low-quality hamburgers and an annoying squeaky cartoon mouse, that doesn't mean that you deserve special treatment. Just because your country was attacked over a year ago, that doesn't mean that you deserve special treatment. More likely than being treated specially, I will be expecting some abuse for my citizenship. Americans will...

It keeps coming and coming. We should attack Iraq. We should do it now. We shouldn't wait for support. Who cares if no one else agrees. We're America. We'll whup 'em like Daddy did and be out by Christmas. Etcetera etcetera etcetera. I think we're setting ourselves up for even bigger trouble. Instead of learning from September 11, we're making the same mistakes and worse ones on top of them. I'm glad I'll be out of the country, but I wish I could take the rest of you with me. Be safe while I'm gone, you guys....
Freedonia's going to war

I fully support our president's idea to go to war with Iraq. I am behind him 100% on that. Go ahead, Señor Arbusto. It's a good idea. I'll make you a special jacket with a bullseye on the back. But don't get lonely, now, because what I don't support is you taking anyone with you. If you want to declare war, go ahead. But you'd better get Congress' permission before you declare that the United States are at war with Iraq. Otherwise, that's not how the United States works and we will have to overthrow your dictatorship. Bye....
