Sorry, I'm a little rusty. I pasted the wrong list in the "to" box.

Ho come the Liberals are always saying our soldiers are unable to protect our borders?

The Pope is visiting DC and President Bush takes him out for an afternoon on the Potomac...sailing on the presidential yacht.
They're admiring the sights when, all of a sudden, the Pope's hat (zucchetto) blows off his head and out into the water.
Secret service guys start to launch a boat, but Bush waves them off, saying "Wait, wait. I'll take care of this. Don't worry."
Bush then steps off the yacht onto the surface of the water and walks out to the Pope's little hat, bends over and picks it up, then walks back to the yacht and climbs aboard. He hands the hat to the Pope amid stunned silence from the watching press corps.
The next morning, the New York Times carries a story, with front page photos, of the event. The banner headline is ...
"Bush Can't Swim."

Gee, why don't we hear about every incident like this on the TV news? We only hear when US troops are killed. The media is certainly doing everything in it's power to make the war in Iraq look one sided.
Thanks for posting.

Let me get this right. If illegal aliens - and potentially terrorists - try to cross the border into Iraq (where all our people are armed), they get shot. But if they try to cross the border into the U.S. - where the general populace is poorly protected by a relatively tiny police force - we put out aid stations for them?
What is wrong with this picture?
