Live Thread: Bush Speech to U.N.

Live discussion and comments about Bush's speech to the U.N. today, and the reaction to it.

I probably shouldn't say this out loud, but one of my sisters in law asked me if my fourth pregnancy was the result of watching the Thorn Birds!

It was coincidental to, but not caused by watching that beach scene!

Wow, you really went out on a limb with that prediction.

Yep, you and I know that is a totally safe prediction. To the point of satire. But the twirp who challenged me believes it will never happen.

Check out the planning here ... we received some Security Council greem light today, and don't you know, we had several arrests of Al Qaida scumbags in different locations. That's building some GRAVITAS. LOL It's a momentum play, we're not just running into these people, we're getting solid "tips" from guardian angels in far off desert shiekdoms. It's a maze by design. But, Bush lets the Saudis win at home, he'll take the sniping here. And we are safer for it.

I may be wrong, but Bush was so direct about affirming our alliance with that kingdom that there is a solid bond below the surface. I don't like those creeps, but you can't have a better friend in the Middle East than them. You have to keep your head up and eyes open in them there parts. Israel and the Saudis are everywhere, their agents must pass each other in the streets of various cities and nod. It's a good safeguard for both in that dangerous region. "Murki's gone without a trace I'm sad to say." "It's Allah's will. Let's keep our guard" Ho hum. Business as usual for the plain clothed warriors of Islam and homeland.
