Germany, France won't pledge funds at Iraqi conference
Iraqi leader warns of possible backlash

MADRID, Spain (CNN) -- The level of Germany and France's participation in an international conference aimed at raising more funds to rebuild Iraq prompted reaction Thursday from a top Iraqi official, who warned of a possible backlash.

Ayad Allawi, the current head of Iraq's U.S.-appointed governing council, said he hoped German and French officials would reconsider their decision not to boost their contributions beyond funds already pledged through the European Union.

"As far as Germany and France are concerned, really, this was a regrettable position they had," Allawi said. "I don't think the Iraqis are going to forget easily that in the hour of need, those countries wanted to neglect Iraq."

I have NO idea if this pricing compares to QVC or BE stores.

Clintoon gets his $$$ over the table (speaking fees) and under the table, I guess, the Lie-brary foundation being nothing but a pipeline to his off-shore accounts.

I hope you never see "The Producers". They have a song called "Springtime for Hitler". But, never mind, you wouldn't see it anyway. I forgot it stars those leftist Saddam-loving actors.

As my brother says..." Ben and J-lo are two people who can't act, and when they are together, they really can't act."

I have seen The Producers. As for the above-quoted comment, I have no idea what you're talking about. It seems you don't, either.

" Ben and J-lo are two people who can't act, and when they are together, they really can't act."

So that means they have their can't-act together.

Eminem's ex put under house arrest

October 25, 2003






MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich. -- After missing two court appearances in a cocaine possession case, Eminem's ex-wife has been placed on electronic house arrest.

Kimberly Mathers is accused of possessing up to 25 grams of cocaine, driving with a suspended license and unsafe driving near a stopped emergency vehicle. A pretrial hearing is scheduled for Dec. 11.

Mathers, 28, will be allowed to leave her home only for court dates and counseling sessions, Macomb County Circuit Judge Edward Servitto ordered. An electronic tether will monitor her movements.

She failed to appear Monday at her arraignment. The judge gave her until Tuesday morning, then issued a bench warrant when she failed to show up.

Stewart's tied for the lead at the Disney Classic! (Well, he is for the moment.) He just embedded his ball in the bank of the lake, so may have to take a penalty..darnit!)

[Timeout]

Well, no penalty...just a chunky little punk shot to get the ball back in play. Still a chance for par....fingers crossed!

[Endeavor]

Nice chip

[lodwick]

Come'on Stew - stay loose out there.

I don't care about the elite sniggering at the suggestion that Saddam was connected to 9/11. In my mind there's no question that, having failed to take down the twin towers in 1993, Saddam was anxious to see al Queda succeed. I have no doubt he provided funding, weapons and intelligence to anyone who could further his goal of killing Americans. Every day, if I've been away from TV/radio, when I come home I think: I hope we caught him today.

Good Sunday morning, everyone.

Just a minute ago on NBC Jim Miclowhatever just relayed a story about the attack this morning on the Al Rasheed hotel.

He and Steven Hayes (Weekly Standard) were in the area of the mortar attacks and saw one room that had been destroyed. They called out to see if anyone was inside the dark room. Jim didn't hear anything and thier group was about to leave but Steven Hayes said he heard moaning. They went back in and found someone!

Steven Hayes continues to impress me.

I have no doubt he provided funding, weapons and intelligence to anyone who could further his goal of killing Americans.

Judge Baer agrees with you and entered a judgement against Saddam on May 7, 2003 for collaborating with bin Laden on the 9/11 attacks.

Off to read your link....
