I Love Christmas
We caught this gem on video the other day while we were decorating the house. We may be snowed in and had our flight cancelled, but this reminds me of how much I love this holiday.
I don't know if there is any greater indictment against this president than the recent actions of an Iraqi reporter. This poor excuse for a chief executive has so badly damaged our nation's reputatation and that of every Christian, of which he claims to be. Anybody who voted for this war criminal in 2004 should be ashamed of themselves. Though he deserves far worse, at the very least, these events may give him a sense of the anger, pain and humiliation he has brought to several nations, including our own.
We can only hope that history will be as unkind to Bush as this shoe throwing Iraqi nationalist. It would have sweetened the deal if Cheney were also in the line of fire.
