We have both just returned from giving blood and having spoken to all our friends and loved ones around town the consensus is the same - WE WILL NOT BE COWED BY THESE FASCISTS.

Our mood is upbeat and our character strong. There is belief that this will be the first attack of many, but despite this, we will NOT surrender.

To the terrorists we say this - be ready, you've stuck your heads above the pulpit, now it's YOUR turn to be the prey. And we're bigger, badder, and smarter than you'll EVER be.

And we're with you, and glad you're all safe.

Any casualty figure updates?

AP still says 40, but surely that will increase here.

Well that's big of you to admit he's better than Lurch (even though you still haven't convinced me that you're not a troll whose mourning Lurch's loss in November).

If you think the President Bush hasn't been a leader in the War on Terror and in Iraq, you're missing a few brain cells. You may be a coward, and not like the way he's led with strength and certitude. You may be ignorant of how much the military community respects his leadership. And you may believe the tripe you read in the MSM about what's happening in Iraq, and think we're losing there.

But you can't say he's not a leader and be taken seriously on a forum where people know better.

You lose, eddie.

or George Allen could wrap the ol' Dirtbag in duct tape and keep 'em in the cloakroom

I wouldn't count on Senator Allen to do much of anything. Below, is a line from his response to my e-mail to him. I was/am very disappointed, as I thought he may the ONLY one with what it would take in the Senate to rid us of "that one"

" I believe Senator Durbin has begun to see the error of his previous comments by attempting to apologize for his absurd, deplorable analogy." Senator Allen, 6-27-05

The final tally could easily go down as well as the number is probably just a guess. Immediately after 9/11, there were estimates of over 50,000 dead.

Here's a list from the Beeb:

0851 Seven people die in a blast on a train 100 yards from Liverpool Street station
0856 21 people die in a blast on a train between Russell Square and King's Cross stations
0917 Seven people die in blast on a train at Edgware Road station
0947 Two people die in a blast on a number 30 bus at Tavistock Place

Perhaps a few more will die of their injuries, but it looks like the death toll is (thanks be to God!) low.

Rush Limbaugh spent some time on his show today re 4 recently released (to UK authorities) GITMO detainees who returned to London, and were released after one day. No connection to today's tragic events...

No, that makes you a sane person.

Biden has used this occassion to blast the Administration as well!

"Following the deadly train bombings in Madrid, this is now the second major attack on passenger rail in as many years. We need to ask ourselves: are we doing everything we can to protect our own vulnerabilities here in the U.S.? Unfortunately the answer is no. For the past two years, several of us in Congress have proposed specific steps that we can and should take to protect commuters and our rails system. It is long past time to act."
