The British Left
Some quotes from this article :
---
Laborite Alan Simpson called [Blair's] dossier [on Iraq] "deeply flawed."
"Sadly, I think Bush will hit Iraq in much the same way that a drunk will hit a bottle," Simpson said. "He needs to satisfy his thirst for power and for oil."
Parliament member George Galloway, whose visits to Iraq and dogged opposition to U.N. sanctions have earned him the nickname "the MP for Baghdad West," let loose another warning on Wednesday.
"If Bush lands half-a-million boots in Iraq, attached only to American feet and cheered only by (Israel Prime Minister) Gen. Ariel Sharon, he will end up marching through hell and many a Yankee Doodle Dandy will be going home in a plastic suit," Galloway said. "The wrath of the Arab masses will come pouring off the streets of their capitals like molten lava and who knows who will be scorched."

The Left wants to see dead Americans, folks. It's as simple as that. These folks probably danced in the streets on 9-11 along with their Palestinian allies.

Pathetic
Groveling by Gerhard Schröder.
Sorry, pal. President Bush ain't Einstein, but he's got a good bullshit detector.

SMALLPOX
The government finally has a plan, but it's a half-measure. The vaccination process will only be implemented after a bio-attack. By then, in my estimation, it will be too late. The panic in the streets, accompanied by looting and hoarding, along with the riots at medical centers caused by terrified people demanding their meds now will rock this nation to its very foundation. The only sure way to prevent this is to innoculate everyone ASAP. But that ain't gonna happen...

MY PREDICTION : WRONG
Germany's Red-Green coalition government survives, for now. The FDP didn't do as well as I expected. Oh, well...

Finally!
Someone who has been saying what I've been saying for years!
Here's the part I'm talking about :
"The age that a man, or woman, can earn a reasonable income has been steadily increasing as education has been dumbed down. The condition of basic employability that used to be demonstrated by a high-school diploma now requires a bachelor's degree, and professional careers that used to be accessible with a bachelor's now require a master's degree or more. Years keep passing while kids keep trying to attain the credentials that adult earning requires."

FLORIDA VOTING RESULTS
Looks like Reno lost, setting up a JEB vs. McBride matchup in November. But there is talk of a recount...

Butch Reno
Looks like her support is collapsing in the run-up to the Democrat primary for Florida Governor. That's bad news for JEB, who would much rather face a hopeless Reno in the general election than a surging McBride.

"[A] few thousand U.S. casualties"...
...is General Barry McCaffrey's guess of the cost of an invasion of Iraq. Of course, this is the fool who fought Clinton's "War on Drugs", so what the hell does he know?

NEW PREDICTION!
McCain, with Hagel as his running-mate, will make a go at the White House as Independents in 2004. You heard it here first!

If you only read one thing today...
...read this.
Here's a sample :
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A few thousand black demonstrators rallied on the Mall in Washington on Saturday to demand that the U.S. government pay blacks reparations for slavery and decades of discrimination.
"I want to go up to the closest white person and say, 'You can't understand this, it's a black thing,' and then slap him, just for my mental health," Charles Barron, a member of the New York City Council, told the crowd.
The demonstrators, numbering about 2,000 to 3,000, came from all parts of the United States, many traveling by bus from as far away as Texas. With the U.S. Capitol in the background, they chanted "Black power! Reparations!" and "Start the Revolution!"
"Apologize White America," said a sign carried by one demonstrator.
Barron, a self-proclaimed "elected revolutionary," said if the government did not act swiftly he personally would storm the Treasury Department and take the money for reparations.

As If We Needed...
...anymore proof that leftists are mush-heads : Susan Sarandon speaks!
The money quote : "You're so lucky in Ireland, England and Spain. Everyone there already knows what it's like to have inexplicable terrorist violence."
Huh? I guess I'd have to have read Marx to understand...

A SAGE
This intriguing stock theory is said to have originated from the desk of John A. Millard of Shearman & Sterling in New York:
"If you had bought $1,000 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.
"With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original $1,000.
"With WorldCom, you would have less than $5 left.
"If you had bought $1,000 worth of Budweiser (the beer, not the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the 5-cent deposit, you would have $107.
"Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle."

Lieberman Hints to Gore : Please Don't Run!
I'm not a huge fan of Mr. Lieberman, but he is, at heart, a moderate. If McCain somehow won the GOP nomination in 2004, and Lieberman got the Democrat's nod, I'd have a difficult time deciding.
I'd have to see who the Libertarians and the Reform Party nominated before making a final decision. It'd be a tough call.

George Michael
He's afraid to come back to the US. And we're afraid to stand in front of him in a public restroom.
