Final mush? John Schandelmeier and his dog team cruise across a windblown lake along the Steese Highway near Central, Alaska. Schandelmeier, a 12-year veteran of the Yukon Quest International Sled Dog Race, says this year's may be his last.

Sean Hannity gave Mike Farrell a forum in which to embarrass himself yesterday, and Farrell did not disappoint.
MASH always seemed perverse--Korea was not funny, so how did it rate a sitcom?
Now we have CBS warning Grammy celebs against displays--which is gasoline on their fire.
In the run-up to go we have lemmings rushing for the precipice.
The useful idiots are somewhere between Heaven's Gate and Jonestown, out of gas, no GPS, no clue.
Meantime, there's history to be made defending America and changing the tenor of the Middle East.
A time for giants and we're blessed with them aplenty.
Led by adults with patriotism, wisdom and courage, our men and women in uniform are bringing skill and dedication to the mission.
Godspeed Swift Victory and Safe Return to the Finest Fighting Force on Earth
God Bless Our Troops, Our Veterans, and their Families
SADDAM-FREE in '03
Hollywoodpeckers approved force against Iraq in 1998--it was to distract from the impeachment of a traitor--that's why.

Israel Today - February 21, 2003 - 19 Adar I, 5763
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon says that in any future peace talks with the Palestinians, some real estate is not negotiable. "I don`t think there is any right to anyone to make any compromise when it comes to Jerusalem," Sharon told American Jewish leaders here in Jerusalem. "We are guardians of Jerusalem for future generations." Palestinians say that`s a non-starter, though they rejected former Prime Minister Ehud Barak`s offer of half of Jerusalem at the Camp David Summit in the summer of 2000. Considering that Sharon won the recent election by a landslide, that offer may not come around again.
Sharon also categorically rejected the "right of return" of Palestinian refugees who want to return to their former homes in Israel. "Israel will never accept that danger to occur. Never," he said. The right of return "means the destruction of Israel as [an] independent, democratic Jewish state." Even the most dovish Israelis oppose the right of return, but Palestinians say there can never be an agreement if this issue is not resolved.
Israeli troops killed two Palestinians terrorists today as they carried out separate attacks in the Gaza Strip. At the Erez border crossing, a Palestinian throwing hand grenades stormed an army post, but was shot dead by troops before inflicting any casualties. Nearby, a terrorist tried to infiltrate the Jewish settlement of Dugit, when he was spotted by soldiers and killed in a hail of gunfire. The Islamic Jihad group claimed responsibility for both attacks. The incidents follow yesterday`s arrest of eight suspected Islamic Jihad members in the US for alleged involvement in Palestinian terrorism.
Israeli officials say they`re moving closer to a deal with the US for additional aid and loan guarantees, to help offset the cost of more than two years of fighting with the Palestinians. Israeli and US officials discussed the matter yesterday in Washington. "We are in the process now of the end negotiation, said Dov Weissglass, the chief of staff at the Prime Minister`s Office. Israel is already the biggest recipient of US aid, getting $3 billion a year. It wants an additional $4 billion in direct aid, and $8 billion in loan guarantees. "We recognize the impact on Israel of the ongoing war on the terrorism and of regional instability, said White House National Security Council spokesman Sean McCormack. We have great confidence in the Israeli economy and we are continuing to examine how the US can contribute to helping to ensure its bright future."

Gee, Ya think?
An objective and responsible Media Corporation such as CBS would never use veiled language in order to stir up disgruntled overpaid self indulgent "stars" to wreak havoc on the morale of our Military and those who support it's Volunteers!
They would never covertly encourage Celebrtities to excercise their protected (by our Miltary) Constitutional right to dissent. CBS has proven over the years just how objective they really are. Don't you remember just how "fair" they were to the former only elected president ever to be impeached?
I do not know where you are coming from. There is no way that CBS would ever actually encourage the exact opposite of what they requested. Clearly you are confused.
