1. Its a little sick, is it not?
Between Iraq, Afganistan, Darfour, the new earthquake in Indonesia, the elections in Zimbabwe, Kyrgyzstan, the builiding tensions in Lebanon, arms deals to India/Pakistan, Chechnya, the new report on child trafficking in the Balkans, the report on the Oil-for-Food programme, etc. you would think there would be pletny of things to discuss which actually matter. But you'd be wrong.

2. I'll remember this for the rest of my days.
The child malnutrition rate in Iraq is five times higher than what it was before we invaded in 2003. FIVE TIMES HIGHER.

Who is weeping for the Iraqi children dying slow, painful deaths THEY CAN FEEL from starvation?

Who is weeping for their mothers holding them in their arms and unable to do a damn thing about it?

Who is weeping for their helpless fathers, pounding their fists on their thighs to watch the ultimate tragedy, the death of their child?

Not republicans, that's for sure.
