1. And the media thinks we care about Mary Cheney's baby?
We are a nation in dire trouble.

3. Yeah, while Mary Cheney is celebrating the anticipated arrival of her child...
... ten more American families today will mourn the loss of their own children in Iraq -- a war, btw, which Mary Cheney has openly supported, defended, and for which she has campaigned.

8. Yes, it is sad.
What gets to me worse is how many we will have lost by next Christmas. Right now it's over 751 US soldiers lives lost in Iraq since last Christmas, and that number is growing daily by an alarming rate.

6. Talk hard...
I respectfully disagree...
I think that American's spoke quite loudly last month when they voted those idiotic, Stay-the-course Republicans out of office. Hopefully the rest of them will get some balls about themselves and bring the troops home.

7. I guess I was referring to the OTHER America
sorry I didn't make that clear.

I wish Republicans so keen on this war would sign up and fight it.
