Well then...

Good morning everybody! It looks like it's shaping up into another fine day here in Seattle. We've had sunshine for (gasp) two days in a row! If this goes on all week, there's a good chance that the end of the world is near.

Now then, what new outrages can I find... not much, but then again, I haven't had a newspaper in hand yet. So we'll go with this:

Howard Dean is showing once again how out of touch he is with the American Public. As I have stated, this is a good thing. The more these people show how far left they are, the more swing votes GWB will get. We just have to bring the Democratic idiocy to light more often. Not an easy thing, when most of the media is turning a blind eye to anything which might counter their views.

A mother who was pulled over and cited for breast-feeding her child at 65mph thinks she's done nothing wrong. Now, I'm not a parent, but even I know that having a child on your lap, while you're driving along at 65, is a bad thing. Driving while distracted is a bad thing. And this ignorant bint thinks that nursing her child while she's hauling ass down the turnpike isn't going to effect how she's driving? Ummmmm... Clue to bint, this is your wake up call. Thank god you didn't get a wake up in the form of a wrecked car and a dead child. I could go on for days about his, but I'll leave it at that.

There's a new study that says Teen's brains are hard-wired for quick thrills. I'm going to start a study to figure out how much money is wasted on studies that say nothing we don't already know.

And now for some news that I'm actually happy to read! The USA is working with Pakistan to deliver economic aid to that country. Now, say what you will about Musharraf, but without substantial help from Pakistan the US efforts in the Middle East would have been severely hampered. I don't know of any national leader who rose to power in a military coup and then improved that country from the inside out. Due to Musharraf's political dealings, Pakistan has been able to get out from the economic hell-hole they were stuck in, and now their economy is growing at a rather decent rate. Between our boys and theirs, we've been able to nab some high level terrorists, including the #3 man in the Al-Queda network. All of this needs to be encouraged, and working with Musharref is going to advance that aim. Are things perfect and lovey-dovey? Not by a long shot. But our relations with Pakistan are lightyears ahead of where they were four years ago. We need to keep improving. If Pakistan can transform inself into a vibrant functioning society, there's hope for the rest of the Middle East.

And to end on a lighter note, as well as hop on the Harry Potter Bandwagon, I've discovered that the Sorting Hat as placed me in Gryffindor. Yay!

I'm from Gryffindor!
