Ma, this one has me seeing RED!

As in Commie Red?

A great guy I used to work with was a Ranger in Vietnam.
He always said, "Kill a commie for mommy!"

The move, a concession to Mexican President Vicente Fox, comes on the eve of his visit to President Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas.

Why are we giving them concessions???

Back in 1970 I met Irene Hughes and challenged here at a seminar and my accuracy rate was so much more real and better -g-

Over the years all I am good for is predicting death/birth

But there are those who have listened and alive and those who have not and gone ;(

BREAKING!!!
Blast ahead of Iraqi law signing
Friday, March 5, 2004 Posted: 4:10 AM EST (0910 GMT)

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- A large explosion has been heard in central Baghdad, coalition officials tell CNN, hours before the planned signing of the country's interim constitution.

There were no immediate details on the cause of Friday's blast or if there were any casualties.

There had been fears insurgents or Saddam Hussein loyalists may try and disrupt the constitution signing ceremony.
