Top US general says Rumsfeld is inspired by God

Nothing is unbelievable anymore. The exact quote:

"He leads in a way that the good Lord tells him is best for our country," said Marine General Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Is it any wonder our Muslim enemies can sell Iraq as a Crusade with so little difficulty? Hel, I'm beginning to wonder myself if that's not at least part of the real motivation.

The top US general defended the leadership of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, saying it is inspired by God.

Brain Itch

In Eighteen Fourteen we took a little trip
along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip
we took a little bacon and we took a little beans
and we fought the bloody British in the town of New Orleans

... ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!

George Bush, space ranger

To the best of my knowledge, "space" in this context includes all of the universe outside the atmosphere of the Earth. It's pretty big. Kinda like the oceans were perceived in the early part of the 19th century.

Does anyone in Washington read or remember history? Remember when the British Parliament declared their right to restrict shipping in international waters, going so far as to board any vessel they chose and remove crew members they deemed British citizens, impressing them into British Naval service?

Somebody went to war over that. Against the Brits. And fought them to a draw, forcing a change in their policy.

Mr. Bush needs to be reminded that he was elected President of the United States, not George IV.

President Bush has signed a new National Space Policy which claims the U.S. has a right to deny access to space to anyone "hostile to U.S. interests," the Washington Post reports.

Church to probe priest's naked saunas with Foley

Probe? Naked saunas? Whoa ... that's way too visual!

What was this headline writer thinking? Betcha CNN changes this one mighty quick!

The diocese of Gozo said it was opening an investigation after a Roman Catholic priest on the Maltese island said he was naked in saunas with Mark Foley when the former U.S. congressman was a boy in Florida.
