"Between now and January you can watch the first three seasons on DVD and become a 24 geek like the rest of us :)"

Good evening snugs and everyone! That certainly IS Photo of the Day. President Karzai is a very brave man, who is constantly at risk for his life - and he truly appreciates the Coalition efforts on behalf of Afghanistan, I believe. Nice photo of them both.

Psalm 70

    1 Make haste, O God, to deliver me!
       Make haste to help me, O LORD!

       2Let them be ashamed and confounded
       Who seek my life;
       Let them be turned back and confused
       Who desire my hurt.
       3Let them be turned back because of their shame,
       Who say, "Aha, aha!"

       4Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
       And let those who love Your salvation say continually,
       "Let God be magnified!"

       5But I am poor and needy;
       Make haste to me, O God!
       You are my help and my deliverer;
       O LORD, do not delay.

Did you hear Laura Ingraham this morning, she does a
great McCain, especially his laugh. After today,
she will really be on a tear.

McVain is situating himself for 2008 vs Frist

Yes he is. I'm sure that's what he thinks - but that's what HE thinks! He is a piece of slime (with apologies to pieces of slime everywhere).

Laura Ingraham did a live hour broadcast tonight, on WABC-AM radio (we usually get her morning show on delay). She is livid with McPain over this. Sometimes if there's something breaking, she will go live for an hour for the NYC area. She's so mad that the dueling Woodwards probably won't be happening for quite a while.

More Prayers asked for by Troops in IRAQ:

"Guys I have a favor to ask!!!! I got an e-mail today from Jared and he asked for PRAYERS PLEASE. They do their missions with two platoons and today the other platoon, not his, was hit. He couldn't tell me the details. He sent only a quick e-mail because they were shutting down the internet and telephones until all the families of the soldiers were notified. He just wanted to let us know he was o.k. I guess we will learn more about it tomorrow. He did say that things were getting rough over there. It will be a long summer for us."

McCain has recently joined Christie Whitman's PAC......filled with pro abortion, Christian hating so called moderates.

Look for this crew to do to the Republican party what Perot did to the first President Bush.

And frankly, McCain is as crazy as Perot.

In the end, on quiet reflection, it would seem that Frist's demands got us three Judges that the demonrats would have preferred to NEVER be confirmed.

These three outstanding jurists are a credit to our party.
