Indeed!
Thanks EMB.
But she has fake parts.
Great SEAL pics, thanks.
This should be in today's headlines. Alas, we've become weak.
At least they aren't silicone.
Glad I could be of service, after all I usually have a few F-O-G pics layin around, no?

The greatest decibels I've ever sent over the wires to the Beltway bozos followed passage of the so-called Campaign Finance Reform.
These imbeciles had already crapped on the Second Amendment and had now proceeded to the First.
Repeatedly I demanded what part of "no law" did they not get, the "no" or the "law".
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to pettition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The measure was a Soros jihad executed by the senator from Manchuria John McCain, and it abridges the freedom of speech prior to election--at precisely the time when speech must in no way be abridged.
I demanded to know why they had done this--dismissing their "oh the courts will fix it"--and our former congressman told me "I guess they didn't want the vote used against them."
The Soros-funded campaign had been amplified by the leftist propaganda machine creating the myth of a populace demanding "campaign finance reform".
And it was enough to cow the cowardly legislators into choosing political survival over constitutional principle.
At every level our basic freedom was attacked: by the legislators who wrote the law; by the president who signed it; by the court which upheld it.
It should more properly be titled the Incumbent Protection Act.
We were taking care of business in Somalia until Clinton removed our ambassador and Marines, and placed our Rangers under UN command, while denying them armor and AC-130 gunships.
The choice in 2008 will be She Who Must Be Oyveyyed and a return to the Mogadishu-Munich mess, or a boot-up-their-ass democracy-spreading preemptive cowboy.
An amendment allowing congress to write law prohibiting flag desecration passed the House and will be pushed into a dark corner by the invertebrates in the Senate.
The best prevention of flag desecration is regime change. Iran, Syria, North Korea, so many weasels, so little time.
BTTT!!!!!!!
So true. Thanks Phil.
