Hi Coturnix,
You can take this as good news or bad.
I like your blog and will probably be visiting it more often.
Thanks again for the polite reception. Not everyone is comfortable with my style (or, more accurately, the lack thereof).

It could just be a coincidence, but Governor Palin's son Track enlisted on 9/11/2007 and his unit will deploy to Iraq on 9/11/2008. Oh, and did I mention 9/11?

Cindy McC must be reading the blogs. On Friday, shortly after the VP announcement, I was reading that Alaska's proximity to Russia was being touted as Palin's international affairs qualification. It's a joke, right? Right?

Of course it's not a joke. And not only does she live next door to Russia she's also been fishing in Canada. </snark>

Why not capitalize on his POW meme by calling McCain The Manchurian Candidate, Communist China's Great White Hope for the White House?
Clearly he was brainwashed into making a false confession on television while a prisoner. There's no known cure for brainwashing, so obviously he is Beijing's puppet, their Supreme Sleeper.
(There is more logic in the above than in McCain's own thinking.)
