Random Observations

These are just a few observations that have occurred to me while watching the news, talk shows, etc.:

In 2001, al Qaeda killed approximately 3000 U.S. citizens. George Bush has proven totally inept at tracking down those responsible. That same year, gun violence in the U.S. cost nearly 30,000 American lives. Maybe Bush should be going after the NRA instead. I can tell him where to find them.

Tell the truth: you really want to give Karl Rove a wedgie, don’t you? (Get in line . . . )

Ann Coulter, the despicable Queen of Hate, often comments sarcastically on the appearance of her progressive opponents. Kind of cheeky for such a pasty-faced anorexic bimbo, don’t you think?

You can bet that when either party says “Let’s not play the Blame Game”, they are to blame.

Why are we giving oil companies tax breaks? Supposedly that is so that, among other things, they can develop added refinery capacity. So why haven’t they done so? It seems to me we are paying them to do so, and then paying again at the pumps because they HAVEN’T done so. And why aren’t the Democrats investigating this?

More to come . . .
