Man I love the citizen soldier! Army re-enlistments are going strong. Oh, and I love the feeble attempt by the author to throw a monkey wrench into this: "Some contend a poor job market and re-enlistment bonuses worth thousands of dollars are keeping soldiers in the Army."

Blow me.

Oh great, another toothless UN resolution. These clowns can't enforce resolutions dealing with outside entities, so what makes anyone think that they're going to enforce a resolution that calls for all their members to cooperate in an investigation that is likely going to implicate many of them? Maybe we should follow suit and put the Jackson family in charge of the investigation of Michael Jackson.

It's clear that the UN Oil for Food program was seriously corrupt, but I don't see this investigation going anywhere. France and Russia have too much to lose, as does the balance of the political left. If their beloved UN was found guilty of such a crime their whole "Bush lied" universe would get all messy.

This was a close one for our friends the Brits (hat tip to Kim du Toit.) Somehow I don't see England running and hiding like Spain if they are attacked...

Heh.

Tom, nice work getting rid of the Spanish flag. What a bunch of sissies. My niece is over there right now on a school trip, and her group has been getting constantly harassed by the locals because they are American, and of course they have a problem with our involvement in Iraq. She was even attacked by some guy, but apparently some of the boys in her group (this is a high school trip) overwhelmed him and eventually beat the crap out of him (like we needed more proof that these people can't fight.) If we hadn't paid for her trip in advance I would have definitely cancelled it. I don't care to have my hard earned dollars going to help support such a cowardly excuse for a country. My apologies to the few remaining Spaniards who haven't succumbed to the flaccid "post modern" ideology of Europe.

This story about our "silent war" with Syria is very interesting (and unsurprising).

'lo out there. Am back. This is a test.
