This is some kind of joke. Right? Tell me it is, please. Well it could be a "Open Primary" I would sure like to know how many Democrats voted for their nominee. I am not a Texan, and I don't know how they run primary elections, but this seems to be either a comment on the intellect of Texans, or a Lot of Republicans stayed home, or changed their affiliation.

Tim,
Thanks for the great work.
This man, Donald Rumsfeld, is interesting. He thinks the media can be bribed to publish stories favoring Al Qaida. How can he possibly think that? He should know that members of the press cannot be bought. THEY ARE ALL ABOVE REPROACH. (and april fool's day is a couple of weeks off.)
Monday, I interviewed Les Roberts, the Les Roberts who did the mortality study in Iraq. They threw out the data from Falluja, and STILL came up with a conservative figure of 100 thousand Innocent Civilians dead in Iraq because we attacked them without provocation. That was as of a year and a half ago. Roberts told me the rate of death is climbing. The fury of the fighting has Increased, and the depravations resulting from war have too.
I am a tiny bit put off by this comment. It seems correct, regarding the analysis, but I think it misses an important point. If, and it is doubtful at best, the Republicans can come up with a more competitive candidate, perhaps the Race will be about the REAL issue of what we are going to do about the Republican Doctrine of World Domination. Instead of how crooked this one or that one is. With Delay winning his nomination bid, while under indictment for political corruption, it seems to me, that the issue of honor and honesty is not quite as important to Republicans as they said it was while they were smearing Al Gore with Bill Clinton's reputation. They seem to think that talking nasty about Democrats morality is more important to Americans than talking about killing a quarter of a million Iraqis who never did a thing to us.
Watch out for Corneilius T Cornpone, coming to a computer near you as soon as he can find a fool to let him speak out. His creator does have a website with a pretty good system, including audio.
Well Cornelius T told me that GW did pick up a hammer, and he might even have bent a few nails before giving up. Did anyone actually see him hammer anthing besides the empty rhetoric he has been spewing since this disaster struck?
I want so much to say, "But Seriously, folks," that my teeth are shaking. I can't every time I think of the TOTAL ALL OUT INCOMPETENCE OF THIS MAN, I get a funny bone attack.
He has admitted to being hoodwinked by the people who told him they had no firm evidence of WMD, saying instead that it was a Slam Dunk. Someone should have told him the US goal was at the other end of the court. You know, here at home, where New Orleans is. AND THE SLAM DUNK GAVE A COUPLE OF POINTS TO THE OPPOSITION. He Did a Double reverse on the gridiron, and only completed one reversal. He should known that is wy his own folks are trying to tackle, hog tie and horsewhip him into getting off the field.
We should send him a Bicycle for Spring Break, and pad the package with pretzels. But, he would think we loved him if we did. Better to just moon him when you get the opportunity, or wave..with just one finger.
General Pace has apparently been insulted for being a Yes Man. To another "incompetent" named George.
Harry Reid may not have actually Called Pace Incompetent, but he should have.
This is pure speculation and theory. I don't even have the skills necessary to determine if my speculations are correct, but there is some archaeological and historical evidence that Muslim explorers were in the Mississippi River Valley several hundred years before Columbus. The timing apparently coincides with some Southwestern irrigation and architectural developments.
There is a possibility that the Golden Tablets, in their strange script were in fact a Koran. I suppose a careful scholarly examination of the Book of Mormon might be able to find parallels, but that does not explain Moroni. The single big similarity is polygamy.
I do know that about the time the Latter Day Saints were being formed there were Muslims in the US, and I have read that about 60% of the slaves imported from Africa were Muslim.
