Mitt Quit, Current Events

It seems like I'm always the last to find these things out. I had no idea that Mitt quit. I don't really care that he did, I just like saying "Mitt quit" because it rhymes :)

Seriously though, I was just about to get started on a map showing which candidate won which state. I figured I could put a dollar sign in each state that Mitt one; a cross in each state that Mike Huckabee won, and for John McCain, maybe a picture of Bruce Willis from Die Hard (McClane, McCain, close enough). Right, I left out Rudy Giuliani. Sort of a no-brainer - that'd be a silhouette of the World Trade Center..

On the other side of the campaign trail, the left lane as it were, the more traditional gender symbols seem appropriate for Hillary and Barack.

Oh well. On to new and exciting topics..

I saw that Condi paid a surprise visit to the troops in Baghdad today. I thought "how nice." But then I thought.. Why a surprise visit. If everything is so peachy keen there, why wouldn't she make a scheduled visit there. Well? I'm waiting...

On a related note, apparently Al-Qaeda is now training children. Good to know the President's "No Child Left Behind" program is working somewhere in the world.

Barack Oh No! bama

Barack, tell me it's not true. Tell me I misheard you. I didn't really hear you use a double negative when you and Oprah were in South Carolina the other day, did I? You didn't really say "didn't do nothing," did you?

Was it an honest mistake? Did you misspeak? You were under lots of pressure? I can understand that. Tell me it wasn't an attempt to fit in, to sound like one of the locals! Like Hillary in Selma? I thought you were different.

Sigh.. Rudy's looking better and better.. NOT!
