A FEW BLOGLETS FROM HERE & THERE

I'm sure Barak Obama is aware if he deals with Fox
News he can expect more of the madrassas type of
lies. They will never be his friends or supporters.
Hope he snaps to the fact that if he plays it chilly
with Fox they will be the losers and he is in a win-
win situation. Fact is all Dems should ignore Fox
for multidinous reasons but one stands out: they
will NEVER get a fair shake from Fox.

Exxon admitted to profiting to the tune of 40
billion in 2006. Makes one wonder how much
they really made.

How many of the "surge " troops are combat?
How many are support? Has it crossed anyones'
alleged mind that shipping 40 to 50,000 men
& women are to have them protect Iraq's border
with Iran & Iraq's border with Syria? Couple of
weeks ago Maria Miami asked here about the
ratio of support-to-combat soldiers. Now it is a
hot subject because our Child Leader tried to
finesse the truth- -again. And The Silence Of The
Neo-Cons on the subject tells us how bloody bad
they really are.

SJ claims he thought Bob Gates was an ass kisser
when he headed the CIA. Doesn't he know ass
kissers rarely change their modus operandi?



Marvelous Molly Ivins has gone & it is a sad time
for Americans, for women, for humor, for honest,
prescient reasoning, for her fans and friends. Did
not know Molly personally & it is difficult to ex-
plain how sorry I feel. Will admit, however, to being
a bit miffed at her leaving before me.
