We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail! [President Bush]
Good morning!! Do not let the victims of the attacks in New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!
Now, the cleanup. More than 1.5 million people remain without electricity in North Carolina this morning.
Algore visited China recently, and it is believed he was paid to speak at a communist government-linked think tank. People could pay 50,000 yuan to get their picture taken with Algore, or 100,000 yuan to buy conference sponsorship packages.
Algore claims he was paid by BusinessWeek to attend the event: "I can tell you specifically our contract says DnmStrategies for BusinessWeek," says Jano Cabrera, spokesman for Algore, as reported by Drudge.
Drudge also reports that Nancy Sheed, spokeswoman for BusinessWeek, says: "This was not an official BusinessWeek-sponsored event. We did not pay any of the participants in the event. We did not pay any of the speakers at the event. BusinessWeek was also not aware that anybody had been invited on behalf of BusinessWeek to speak at the event."
Algore also attended an informal lunch on November 18 with approximately 30 members of the Asia society, sponsored by Hong Kong chairman Mr. Chan. Chan was an independent director of ENRON. Algore knew of Chan's relationship with ENRON because a source said he "told him before we went into the lunch."
Algore may be the master of reinvention, but he does not seem to have reinvented his pechant for Chinese money.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
I am impressed by anyone who can play 2 instruments at once, being a one-trick pony myself. I can't even SING and play at the same time very well.
esp. after a glass or 2 of wine.:)
No, no, silly! It's called "Bent One, Tennessee."
Slapping myself for such a disrespectful and off-color remark.

Another indication that Landrieu is in big trouble. Candidates don't fabricate stories if they are ahead.
Fabrication is a big risk. It motivates your enemies, if the fabrication gets caught it is very counter productive. It is very likely that every sugar farmer (the people who care about this issue) would check it out. Something that effects if you make the payments gets checked. When they find it is a lie they tend to get angry at the liar.
This smells like desperation.
Both parties have people checking turn out tomorrow. The media will find out what they are and report them. of turn out. Once they know turn out in belweather black and white precincts, they will know who won. They will know by early afternoon.
