    that's a great story, but news...

    Bush Vetoes Child Health Care bill Again

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    More of the Same.

    I don't know why they even bother with these bills other than to continue making Bush look like an ass for not agreeing with them. I don't know if the government insuring middle class peoples kids is a good idea or not, but I know that the President doesn't think it is and unless two thirds of congress disagree there is no chance that a bill that expands federal coverage to include more of such children will not be vetoed.

    I think Bush is a cock-bite for using his veto power to essentially be the legislature instead of checking the legislature but that's just how the system works. If the Democratic Congess won't bow down to his narrow-minded vision and let him decide all the laws they might as well just go home. If they aren't going to get anything passed anyway why bother?

    Funniest quote of the story,

    "We're in an age of pocket porn," says study author Jason Carroll.

    Most surprising thing about that is that he is sixty seven. Didn't someone publish a book like that already. You would think that asking for authorization would be common sense

    Former Pakistani Prime Minister Bhutto Assassinated During Public Appearance

    So a guy walks up to her car (where she's standing up out through the sun roof), fires three shots at her. The car speeds off, and the shooter detonates a bomb on himself, killing at least 20 other people.

    Pakistan's official explanation is that she didn't die from gunshot wounds, or from the bomb. They state that no foreign matter was found on her body, and that she died from hitting her head in falling while the car pulled away. They further state that it was likely Al Qaeda and other Islamist extremists who undertook the assassination, citing a purported phone conversation capturing a top Islamist (who the US acknowledges is being considered a suspect in the assassination) congratulating Al Qaeda on killing her.

    To me, this all stinks. Bhutto was about to go against President/General/Dictator Musharaff in the election. Musharaff's year includes suspending the judiciary, installing his own judicial officials, locking the country in martial law and dismantling most of the independent press units. This comes in the same year where he stated that he'd step down from the military leadership IF he was re-elected in the coming elections...

    Yeah, blame Al Qaeda...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity.

    i havent' been watching much of the news but today i was in my car and they were talking about how president bush wants them to ''continue the diplomatic process'' as they are going to have elections in under 2 weeks...

    how? it just seems like an insane and stupid statement for our president to make... i mean, to the best of my knowledge this Bhotto was the only opposition. Unless we're going to find a better candidate to have elected in their country.



    and about the tigers, Last night here in dallas they found a tiger dead on the side of the highway. It has been shot several times and dumped apparently by its owner(s) who had it declawed and had a rough looking makeshift collar made out of rusty wire for the big cat. I don't understand how somebody who had a pet like that could just kill it and dump its body... they could have at least tied it up somewhere and called somebody w\ the zoo to come and get it or something

    Bhutto's death is clearly more complicated that just blaming some militiants. As a Sky News reporter said on the reports that the Pakistani Govt is blaming militants: Its very easy to blame someone from a shadowy organisation in Waziristan (next to Afghan border) where no one can get to him or interview him to confirm these reports.
