1. So, just another day in Mission Accomplished Things-Are-Getting-
Better land?

Only rated 2.46 with 48 readers. I understand that voting seem silly to some, but it keeps the story on the site longer, and the higher the numbers, the more exposure the story gets, as in "Most Popular". This is just one silly way of keeping these stories out there and exposing them to more people.

4. somebody tell me how much that little boat costs....
I saw that bush* family video over the weekend with skeletor poppy at the helm of the boat. Sickening. Now someone tell me how much that boat cost. How about the multi-million dollar Kennebunkport Estate? Isn't poppy worth billions by now? Why doesn't the media mention those little pieces of info like they do when talking about Teresa
H-K? :grr:

8. About $180,000
His supporters think he's a brush-clearin', God-fearin' down home fella.
But his weekend fun boat costs more than an average American makes in 5 years, before taxes. What a phony.

5. What a mess.... From the article...


Four explosions in a row hit the city Sunday evening, apparently from mortars or rockets. Several minutes later two more blasts shook downtown, and the crack of gunfire rang out.


At least 11 people were taken to al-Kindi hospital with injuries, three of them in serious condition, said Mohammed Eidan, a health worker there.


Some were injured when a blast hit a truck as it drove through downtown Baghdad, badly damaging the vehicle and collapsing part of a wall of a nearby house.


Flames and smoke leaped from the destroyed truck as firefighters tried to put out the blaze, and blood stained the street. Shrapnel also smashed the windows of a nearby car, the seat of which was covered in blood.
