"the president has authorized a program so that American citizens don't have to pay to be evacuated from Lebanon."

Meanwhile, the Katrina evacuees have to ....oh, never mind.

/sarcasm

I don't mean...to be mean...but that just steams me. Half the members of Congress who were hollering about this today VOTED FOR THE bill.

(my air conditioning got hit yesterday by lightning- won't be repaired til tomorrow..it's summer in Florida ..it's hot and I"M GRUMPY!!)

Yes I am TexKat I don't want to go too religious on folks in this board because that is not the main subject. BUT I believe these events clearly show us the end as we know it today, and I invite those who have no idea what that means to read the latest left behind book "The Rapture". Some don't believe the theology in the books but I believe events are lining up very closely with their reasoning.

It is a law and he'll be blamed for not getting them out fast enough, for increasing the deficit, for starting a war in the Middle East, etc., etc., etc.

It just never ever ends.

Chemical complex hit would not only expose more people to God only knows what but would also hurt the economy. So yeah, I can believe that's what they are aiming for.

[Txsleuth]

Well...I don't know if this is TRUE...but Alan asked Woolsey about a "new proposition" that he has heard about..calling for a cease fire...and prisoner exchange.

I about choked when he said prisoner exchange...because that would be the worst thing...IMHO>

I shows weakness and APPEASMENT. No matter what Beirut Bob says...Israel has done enough compromising with these groups and countries that want to wipe them from the face of the Earth.

[NewConservTexan]

They have admitted as much

[Peach]

Oh you must be hot as the dickens, SE Mom.

Around the time of 9/11, our 2 year old Trane a/c died. It took a few days to get it fixed -- the repairman was here while the Towers were being attacked and I made him come inside and watch because he was missing history.

The only way I could sleep was to go to bed with wet hair and a wet tee shirt and a fan.

[daybreakcoming]

I bet so too - God guide 'em!

[SE Mom]

" go to bed with wet hair and a wet tee shirt"

Well now, this thread just took an unexpected turn...

(just kidding)

[Txsleuth]

Steve Emerson who I think is THE expert on terrorism in the USA..just said that what makes Hezbollah so dangerous is that they have infiltrated almost all of the European countries and the USA...

So...if they or Iran or Syria chose to...they could attack all countries from within, right now.

[cibco]

This isn't the Levin thread.. ;0)

[TexKat]

Attacks in Lebanon kill 30

[TheRobb7]

OS= Oh Shiite

[Txsleuth]

I just couldn't listen to the debate, EC..

It just bothers me too much to listen to how the DEMS and some REPS rationalize the killing of babies. I can't deal with that..and I get really mad.

I am so glad this WAR took my attention from the Senate this week so far....(that doesn't sound right..but I think you know what I mean..lol)
