Well, I thought this might be a way to get some quick thoughts down without having to edit and upload a web page. Most recently the news of the capture of Saddam is on most everyone's minds. Just a couple observations.
1) I noticed several of the talking heads referring to Saddam as looking like a homeless person. What jumped in my mind was, "Oh great! Now we're going to hear from all the homeless advocates about 'the insensitivity and demeaning nature of this talk comparing the homeless to Saddam." Just wait, it's bound to come.
2) Now that Saddam is in custody, the opposition politicians will be calling for moving up the date of bringing the troops home and setting a firm date. Well duh! If I was one of the terrorists floating around Iraq, when I found out the Americans were leaving on a specific date I'd start lying low. Then as soon as they're gone, the countries mine! No more Yanks to hide from.
'Course I've come to question more and more how loyal to US soverignity, freedom and our democratic republic some of these of the "loyal opposition" really are. But even more, how much common sense they really have a firm grasp on.
