Good morning, Alas!
Same old, same old.
Will the Palin obsession be on display.
WE WANT SARAH!!!!!
While I hope that there is more discussion of the June 30 milestone with US troops in Iraq, even Palin Derangement Syndrome would be a welcome diversion from Michael Jackson's latest career move.
morning everyone!
A dynamic that I have not heard discussed is the possible willingness of the locals to give up more insurgents since they will now be perceived as working with the Iraqi security forces and no longer with the US military. Over here symbolism and appearances are important especially as it relates to associating with Americans.
I’m guessing that since the pull back from the cities in Iraq by U.S. forces is a good news story...the media will either ignore it completely or give it a passing glance.
Just like they did with the surge and it’s success.
Today will be all about PDS.
Morning AB and thanks once again for the thread.
Boehner should be interesting. He has been a stalwart conservative on our side, especially lately.
I was trying to find the local news last night - for info about our tea party. I caught the last bit of abc news - steffi is in Iraq with Joe.
With the holiday weekend, I wonder if the shows were taped BEFORE Sarah’s announcement? If so, little if any Sarah comments.
Keep your eyes open, bean_counter. Biden has telegraphed that, if there is an uptick in violence in the country, we will have to rethink our presence in the country.
This signal to al-Qaeda and Iran could not be more clear.
The “news” has become nothing about imparting information, and all about speculating about things they can’t actually know anything about.
If Sarah Palin is as stupid and incompetent as you portray her, isn't Alaska better off if she leaves? So, what's your problem, eh?
More lunacy from Joe "Carve the Country Up" Biden.
Either way Sarah will be the topic and all the old school rinos and supposed conservatives who think it's just the end of the world that she quit 14 months 7 days 5 hours 32 minutes and 16 seconds before the end of her term.
I say the hell with them all.
Sarah did the reputable,ethical thing by resigning IMHO.
Most Senators, Governors and House Reps. routinely run for other offices while holding another. What happens to the office they hold while they run? It generally goes down the tubes.
Sarah is not willing to do that to her home state of Alaska which she loves and respects. I say lets respect her decision.
Why didn’t he just send them a hand written invitation on WH stationary?
