That yuk is supposed to move in to OkC overnight....will make the morning commute fun! Bet the tow trucks will be busy!
Big "C" or big "A"?
What dose Jerry think about the boycott of his dvd's?
Amarillo is 30 degrees right now, Lubbock is 47, and Midland/Odessa is at 68 degress.. it is on it's way.
Not mentioned....but I suspect the latter.
My guess is he went as a guest of the Military...
It's almost cold enough for me to start wearing long pants again.
Happens a couple of weeks every year.

"Midland/Odessa is at 68 degrees"
Music to my ears. Makes me wish I was back home.
I haven't seen the video yet. I need to go take a look.
Who called him a RINO? I do think he made a good decision, he is too soft-hearted (as are most physicians) for the job of President, that is why I think Harry Reid was able to walk on him so much of the time.
Al Sadr is a clever little thug. He walks right up to the line but he does not cross it. He is typical of the sorts of messy little problems that crop up in a Counter Insurgency. NOT exactly and enemy not exactly an ally. So how you deal with him is troublesome. Since Malki and Al Sadr are both Shia, Malki cannot squish him without splitting his own power base. So he keeps trying to negotiate with the twit. Frankly, I think with the terrorists mostly broken now is the time to break the militias. Maliki is simply making a mistake here. What we need was the excuse and Al-Sadr's threats to launch a coup would of been the perfect excuse we needed to kill him and break his "Mahdi Army".
Unfortunately as usual the Arab way kicks in again. Talk,talk,talk,talk,talk,talk and more talk. Someone needs to sit Maliki down and speak truth to him. I am hoping that is what President Bush is coming out to tell him.
I wrote this a bit a go, I will repost it since it makes the point on Al Sadr.
Americans: Yo, all you Iraqis. Now we know you all have been oppressed and terrorized by Saddam and his goons for about 40 years so we came over here to show you a better way. So gather round and we are going to teach you this thing called Democracy. We want to teach you this cause we figure if we get can get enough of you following this ideology you will not follow the ideology that preaches it is a good thing to fly airplanes into buildings full of our Civilians.
Now the first things you need to learn is this part about the Rule of Law. Study the sub chapters on Innocent until prove Guilty, Trial by Jury, Right to Legal Representation and really important, the chapter on outlawing Cruel and Unusual Punishment. Ok, now while you do that, we are going to arbitrarily round up and kill any Iraqis who we think maybe have ever talked mean about us.
What? No we are not going to bother with any of that messy Democracy stuff cause we are at war. And according to our Holloweird Movie guide to Military Action flicks any time you are at war you can waste anyone who pisses you off for what ever reason you want any way you want to do it. According to Hollyweird, we don't need nothing like proof or nothing we can just go wack that little Al Sadr freak cause he pisses us off. Evidence? We don't need no stinkin' evidence. Our action movie heros never bother with any evidence. In the Movie we watch on TV says we are just suppose to go kill him because he pisses us off so that what we want to do here. Now quit talking back and learn our lessons on Democracy.
Iraqi 1. Hey Mahmoud, why are we helping these clowns?
Iraqi 2. What do you mean Achmed, they got rid of Saddam!
Iraqi 1. They did? Looks to me like they just took his place.
Iraqi 2. Well ya so?
Iraqi 1. Well at least the old thugs were from around here. These guys are not only from out of town they are not even Muslims. We may has well have Muslim thugs if we got to have thugs.
Iraqi 2. You right, time to join the Jihad!
That is what this "Counter Insurgency doctrine as learned from watching TV dramas" would produce. It is utter stupidity but forget trying to penetrate the Junk Media's welded shut minds. They are too busy screaming their group think on Iraq to actually LEARN anything about Iraq.
Some FReepers call him RINO.
DeVito is a drunk. The ladies of the View are so pleased he is being a big and dogging the President. (all but Elizabeth. She is the ONLY real mature one on that set. They really add to the decline in television today.
Not that anyone here needs this but here's what Roger was just talking about.

Schumer: Reaganism Is Dead
Chuck swung by the Daily News for an editorial board meeting this morning, which you'll be able to read more about in tomorrow's News.
A couple of tidbits from his broader discussion (forthcoming in book form) of how he sees the shifting terrain and the Democrats' edge struck me:
"We're in better shape than [Republicans] are, because they don't realize that Reaganomics is dead, that the Reagan philosophy is dead," he said. "We realize that New Deal democracy, which is still our paradigm, which is sort of appeal to each group ... that doesn't work any more."
He had said a bit earlier, "The old Reagan theory which dominated -- which is, 'Government is bad, it's out of touch, chop off its hands as soon as it moves.' -- is over."

You're certain about that???
Hmmm, I never saw that in him.
