The Pitiful, The Astounding The Asinine:

The Pitiful, the Astounding, and the Asinine:

I have seen some pitiful sights in my life but watching Bush at the podium lecturing Turkey that it would be irresponsible for Turkey to invade Iraq to solve a dispute between Turkey and the Kurds in Iraq---that there are more peaceful ways to solve conflicts---now that is a pitiful sight coming from the 'John Wayne' of American foreign policy. I guess it is a picture of one 'Turkey' addressing another Turkey. I have a great idea. In order to get Bush, Cheney, et al to speak a modicum of truth let's waterboard 'em.

I know, out with the old and in with the new, but I read this week 18-20% of 13-14 yr old American girls have already had sexual intercourse. Watch out for little Martha at the door wanting to sell girl scout cookies to your 8th grade son Honschnival. Astounding.

And some things are truly asinine. They have developed a test which will predict Alzheimer's disease with 90% accuracy some 6 years before any symptoms appear. I already have my hat and coat on so I can find out today if I will have an incurable disease 6 years from now. That little peek into the future ought to keep those testing positive on a happy high for the next 6 years. Zippidy do Dah, Zippidy A's---Me can't wait for the final days.
