We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail!
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!!
John sKerry on Disgrace the Nation answering a comment from Bob Schieffer ["Democrat Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, he takes a very different view, Senator Kerry. He says basically that we should stay the course, because he says real progress is being made. He says, 'This is a war between 27 million Iraqis who want freedom and 10,000 terrorists.' He says we're in a watershed transformation. What about that"]:
I don't agree with that. But I think what we need to do is recognize what we all agree on, which is, you've got to begin to set benchmarks for accomplishment; you've got to begin to transfer authority to the Iraqis, and there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the -- of -- of -- of -- historical customs, religious customs, whether you like it or not. Iraqis should be doing that.
Sadda, announced today that he will attend "an unjust court."
In Berlin, Secretary Rice stressed the United States does not condone torture.
And an Iranian military plane has crashed, killing 128.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
9/11 also sent a shock wave to our nation, but unfortunately, some DO seem to have forgotten. They have forgotten that the terrorists are determined to kill and destroy us. This time it is not a conventional war that we are fighting. It is a fight to destroy EVIL.
Good morning!
Brrrrrrr. My blood just can't take the temps that cold.
Good morning. Ccccold here.
That judge had best get control of his courtroom; yesterday was a disaster and can't be making the Iraqi people feeling any confidence that Saddam will be dealt with in the way they hope.
I'm taking my dad Christmas shopping today; he still can't drive since his detached retina surgery. He LOVES to shop so I'm wearing my most comfortable shoes.
I am astonished that the judge lets him get away with that. I expected to see Hussein carried into the court and made to sit there in manacles and gag.
WOW! Now THAT is cold. It is around 40 here and the weather man said it is a 'wet' cold. whatever that is.
My neighbor, Will Lehner, was aboard the USS Ward on that Sunday morning, patrolling the outer edges of Pearl Harbor.
They sunk one of the Japanese midget submarines trying to sneak into the harbor.
He saw a salvo hit the conning tower.
A few years ago he was invited by Bob Ballard (Titanic fame)to try and find the sub. He tried to tell Ballard where it was, using a mini sub but Ballard wouldn't listen.
A few months later some Japanese students, doing their own research, found the submarine right where Will had said it would be.
Am going to the Green Bay game this weekend.
I understand HGTV will be showing the White House Christmas decorations tonight.
Yes, the showing will be at 8pm EST.
It just rankles me to know end to see Ramsey Clark over there.
The strange thing is Saddam wouldn't think twice about putting him through a shredder. (Course... come to think of it neither would I... ; ) )
How is he going to meet his ole buddy 'down there', head chopped of? hanging? shot? or, old age in prison.
At least something worthwhile will be on television tonight.
Excellent posts about the media and the war, Carolina and Toby.
And Ramsey Clark -- it's just too early in the morning to even THINK about that traitor.
Awwww, have a good day.
FNC: Trial to resume without Saddam! Excellent news.
Welcome home Utah Girl...that was a long cruise. Glad you enjoyed it so much!
Raven, thanks for the news compilation...
MozartLover, we were part of a program last night which also included a flute choir from the University...12-15 flutes, including a piccolo, an alto and bass flute or tenor flute...I forget which.... Apparently there is more and more music being written especially for such ensembles...We sang very well, thank goodness!
Now to concentrate on Messiah....performance Friday night...
Thanks for the info. We'll enjoy that.
Ramsey Clark has been a traitor for a long time. He said a few years ago that we were wrong to be in Viet Name and he knew it at the time. I thought he should be punished when he revealed that little tidbit. Does he have no conscience?
You have a RELAXING day too, kassie. After what you've been dealing with, I imagine it's quite well needed and deserved.
bbl - bundled up to go for a walk.
ALRIGHT! My highlighted 'you got mail', etc. came back. Must have hit something on the keyboard I shouldn't have.
Sounds like Bennett is absent...who's the sub??
