Hammasa Kohistani, the first Muslim "Miss England," and an ethnic Tajik

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth
Excellent reply. Cheney is the man!
I guess we both have to bite he bullet and vote Judy.
I'm still hopeful that Cheney will announce in January of 2007 that he's feeling pretty good with his health, and because the war is so important, he's going to seek the GOP nomination for President in 2008. Probably won't happen I know, but it would be great. :) The Democrats would go 100% full tilt haul buggy wackadoo nuts. :) There would be a surpluss of wicker baskets for decades to come of Cheney runs for President in 08. :)
They wouldn't have time.
Judy commercials are being shown.. Not as much as Blago...
When I see that Clinton....... FINGER, I just want to pull it off and stick it in a rattlesnake's mouth.
NBC provides podcasts of "Eat The Mess." I'll look for a link if you'd like.
Kewl. :) There are lots worse things then being told that I think like you, considering your posts I've read over the months. :) Works for me. :) Thanks.
Agreed.
How about North York????
I think the Persian woman are very attractive but I really haven't seen that many good looking men. I've always found that strange as I am usually attracted to the dark hair and eyes. Maybe being married to my Norweigian/German hubby has adjusted my dials so to speak. :)
Yes, lol. Maybe someone should let Toronto in on that fact.
If the American military is a paper tiger, then we've given the terrorists some hellacious paper cuts the past five years.
Thing is we have to watch for their spin and counter it whenever it rears its ugly head. They will be lying more that ever after tonight and we have to be ready for it.
It will be their old saw over and over. tell a lie get the DBM to re-enforce it and then claim it as the truth. We are the counter to their lies.
So what do you suppose the Democrats are going to spring later this week to drive 09-11 and their gutlessness on National Security off the headlines?
I have always loved Dick Cheney and always will.
I have not seen any Mark Kirk ad's yet either.
I can't pick my favorite sound bite.
"Thumb Sucker" or "You're not in season".
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!
I think so.. I mean if business are leaving this state and the surrounding states are getting more business, something is wrong...
