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 on 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!!
Still a lot of snow out there, though it has melted down from 20 1/2" of snowpak to 17". More melting due today.
Donna Brazile lectures members of the Criminal Party yesterday, telling them they had better listen to Al Sharpton.
The left is believing President Bush is making more allusions to faith in his speeches and is concerned about that.
And Canada says it will not join in a "solo" (non-UN authorized) attack on Iraq.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.

According to Fox News, he is...
ELIGIBLE FOR RELEASE IN TEN YEARS!!
Statements from the Germans. [Sourced to Fox News]
From the lawyer...
"They wanted justice and they got justice," said Ulrich von Jeinsen, the lawyer who represented the Americans. "They accept that we have another system and since he got the maximum sentence they will be satisfied."
From the trial judge...
[Judge] Mentz said moving testimony by family members helped persuade the five-judge panel to deliver the maximum sentence, since the court also considered that el Motassadeq is the father of two young children.
From the Interior Minister...
"This is a success in the fight against international terrorism," said Interior Minister Otto Schily. "It is a warning to all those who think they can toy with the idea of aligning themselves with terrorist networks."
But the real gem has got to be this one (!!!!) - Also from the Interior Minister...
Schily called the penalty "very harsh."
SNL couldn't write such a script!
Over the past few years so many excuses for why a person murdered someone.....too much pressure, etc. Just last week...an act of passion was offered to describe why Clara ran over her cheating husband.
The liberals have an excuse for all murderers unless it is a white, gun carrying, Christian, married, conservative male driving a SUV.
They make me sick!!
Thanks Chair, for the flood warnings.
We were down in Louisville at the riverfront last Aug.
I really don't remember much of a levee there to protect the city from the river..
