Shame about Harrison, always have liked the way he plays. And Light could be a big loss, although your rookies sure played well this weekend.

I was at a news stand today. The papers were lined up front page and side by side. The oddest display of 2 front pages were positioned side by side. One paper had Mrs. Sheehan photographed through the whitehouse fence holding her son's photo with a look of sadness and pain. The other front page had her laughing like a loon being carried by police. It was really strange.

I don't tear up much, but if I were to have been on that plane I don't think I could have held back.

I can't say it enough - God bless our military folk. They are the best in the World, bar none.

Again, I agree with you. We have to repeat over and over again that our Military is made up of VOLNTEERS who WANT to defend their country against the terrorists.

Also, the rag tag group of professional protesters who descended upon Washington,D.C, this past weekend, were none other than the usual suspects.

I was surprised, however, that some MSM outlets actually took the time to explain just who these people were. Communists, Socialists, Anarchists, etc, etc, etc. And while I believe there were some well intentioned, ( but poorly informed ) protesters in attendance, their total numbers certainly weren't that impressive.

She's having herself a good time. Pathetic that she should get her kicks like this and also pathetic that half the nation AND the media buys into it.
