Shakira doesn't run around in a burkha. She usually is a bit... ummm.... under dressed. I'm pretty sure she's not Muslim. Her father was born in America, according to Wikipedia, and should be an American citizen by birth.

FAE?


Think it is too small for that. That was my thought too but FAE is heavy. One guy could not be holding it like that.

To: NewConservTexan; All
For the Anglophiles among you there is an excellent blog post about the current situation in the ME here:

Foreign policy? What foreign policy?

Well worth a read.

Here is an interesting quote:

It seems Mr Heffer has not noticed that, as we pointed out and as Fraser Nelson has written in this week’s Spectator (in case Mr Heffer is too grand to read blogs) Mr Blair does have ideas for a policy and he is always trying to foist it on President Bush. These ideas are all to do with multilateral activity and transnational organizations. They have failed in the Middle East and President Bush has, rightly, rejected them.

If only, if only President Bush had said no to Mr Blair's wish to go via the U(seless)N, and instead started the invasion a few months earlier so much could have been different; the stockpiles of WMDs may have been found, the preparations for a guerrilla war may not have come as far, who knows even Turkey may have been brought on line with all what that would have meant for the quick subjugation of the Tikrit area.

Vote was 410 to 8.

Only these 8 voted for the Terrorists.

The resolution, which was passed on a 410-8 vote, also condemns enemies of the Jewish state.

Click here to see how your representative voted.

Rep. Ron Paul of Texas was the only Republican to vote against the resolution. Democrats who voted against the measure of support were Neil Abercrombie of Hawaii, John Conyers, Carolyn Kilpatrick and John Dingell, all from Michigan, Jim McDermott of Washington, Nick Rahall of West Virginia and Pete Stark of California

A good beginning is to deport the newly arrived liberals as of this morning.

She's under-dressed on a cold day! Her current hit single is, "My hips don't lie". Probably not a chart topper in any Muslim country. ;o)

I have no idea how much an empty gas shell weighs, same goes for those leaflet cannisters.

There is something about the pic that bothers me though. From the angle of his right forearm, it appears to intersect one of those fins, either physically impossible, or else uncomfortable to the point of arterial bleeding.

Whatever that is, it's light, no more than 20 pounds, I'd guess. His left hand is under it, but only under the centerline, not wrapped around like it would need to be for something heavier. His right hand is resting on it, not supporting it against the roll away from him his left hand placement would suggest if it's heavy. Relatively light, or Photoshopped.

I have heard for 2 days that the Senate also passed a resolution backing Israel...but when I went to the Senate roll calls...there has been NO roll call vote.

So..IF there was one...it was one of those sneaky UC (unanimous consent) votes...which means NO Senator had to actually put his/her vote on record.


I think that is totally BOGUS...plausible deniability for candidates...right?
