I have a goat.

That was just a random comment from an English teacher about politics. That's all.

I heard the funniest thing. Laura Ingraham has dubbed the Kerry/Edwards ticket "Flip-flop and Mop-top".
(But, there again, any candidate who's list of qualifications includes "...and we have better hair," shouldn't be taken all too seriously.)

Don't get me wrong. I just think that there are serious credability issues when the candidate for Vice President -- who will become President, should anything happen to him -- is known to the masses as "Silky Pony".

And, if I hear another reference to Halliburton in the same sentence as Cheney's name, I'm going to get quite violent.

This is exactly as it was explained to me, almost word-for-word:

Once, there was this country, who faught in World War II. Their army was so powerful, that they could send their army any where in the world, and they would have the ships and airplanes to support it. After the War, all of their enemies decided that they didn’t want to do this anymore. So the people of that country decided that instead of funding a military that could support itself, they should just give money to people who have never worked a day in their lives, so that they’ll get re-elected. And then, when the next war came, they had no support for the military, and had to hire external contractors to get food and supplies to the military.

Halliburton has to be in the Middle East right now. They need to get food/water/supplies to the troops. Plus, the other company there to do all of this, A. G. Edwards, said that Iraq is too dangerous for them, and they’ll have to pull out. Halliburton is going to hire more people to take over where A. G. Edwards left off.

So shut your traps and quit complaining.
