"Where are you getting your info from?"

Debka, CBN, and WND correspondant Aron Klien. These sources are scattered throughout my site.

"well they are a movement like my mom used to refer to it as."

As in, "Don't forget to flush?"

BEIRUT, Lebanon - A U.N.-run observation post near the border was struck during fighting between Israel and Hezbollah militants on Friday, while Israel pushed ahead with airstrikes on Lebanon and warned people in the south to flee as it prepared for a likely ground invasion to set up a deep buffer zone.

I am vigilant to that accusation. However, they have been right on the money recently in their reporting.

The last time the Pope was pro war, was the Crusades and people are still bitching about that! :)

LOL! Good point.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

During the Invasion of Iraq, I started hanging out at the Command Post to watch the war news. at the time, I was writing knitting patterns to sell, and my life revolved around it. I wanted a handle that would reflect the knitting, since it was such a part of me. I forget what drew me to conundrum, but the mental picture in my head was knitting the puzzle of life, or better yet, trying to figure out the whys and wherefores of life, in the ethical and religious sense.

And my poet's ear likes the alliteration in the two words.

Whereever I go online that allows you to have a handle, that's what I use.

I talk too much, too. If you google "Knitting a Conundrum" with omitted results included, you get 100 pages returned....

they could just put it in the mail...

Or have a courier deliver it to the Israeli embassy by noon. But a Congressperson who doesn't grandstand doesn't think he/she is doing their job.
