Happy 2005!

It’s been an amazing year at Cao’s house. I saw my oldest son prepare and then leave for Kuwait in February, and move on to Iraq in March. My younger son figured out what he had to do not to flunk out of college, and my husband hit his 30-year anniversary at [...]

why not us?

Picked up this little gem from Cass over at Villainous Company.
Apparently, Fareed Zakaria is actually putting in print some POSITIVEs about the War in Iraq and the upcoming elections.
Most memorable:
We have gotten used to bad news from Iraq—and there will be more. But there is good news as well. Elections are likely to go ahead [...]

a lefty who gets it

This column by New York Times Thomas Friedman rang a bell with me. It was called “Worth A Thousand Words” when it appeared just before Christmas, but I like to think of it as “A Liberal Who Gets It.” This is exactly why we are in Iraq, and the fact that Tom Friedman, who is [...]

music or no music?

Looking for feedback on the music–Vote yes or no in the comments.
Got it from Rage and I think it’s killer-you can turn it off if you hate it. Just click on the ’stop’ button (the button with the square on it). Let me know if you think it sucks-but I’d also like to [...]

Ramsey Clark; still Saddam’s sock puppet

In recent news articles, as Leanne pointed out (I think the link she had was to Al Jazeera but mine is Arab News here), it’s been officially announced that Ramsey Clark is going to join the jet-setting and beautiful lawyer, Ghaddafi’s daughter (click here), Aisha al-Gaddafi, and the American lawyer Curtis Doebbler (click here) [...]

It’s not TS, it’s CAO!

It’s not TS, It’s Cao! Since the other two have revealed themselves, I thought I’d come out and say “hi”. I’m Caoilfhionn and I’m from Cao’s Blog. If you want to know what the heck that name is all about, because you’re saying to yourself WTF is that? take a look here.
You’ll [...]

I am a liberal

Hmmm. I didn’t realize they were quite so diverse. Got this here, and although some libs might be ‘offended’ I think it’s spot on.

those sick Americans

As the Anti Idiotarian Rottweiler reports, we sick Americans are cannibalizing dead bodies of Iraqis by stealing their organs and teleporting them back to our secret evil experimental laboratories of doom.
Sir George shares with us this link of a translation of an article written in Belgium:
“Secret European military intelligence reports indicate the transformation of [...]

Feedback

I received a comment to my blog today on BE:
Lame. Way too many words on the page for me to possibly hope to read easily.
Here’s a bulletin for ya: This is a BLOG, not NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC.
On a more positive note, I received a review from SC&A, you can see it here. Beth [...]

Warrior Soul

You Are a Warrior Soul

You’re a strong person and sometimes seen as intimidating.
You don’t give up. You’re committed and brave.
Truly adventuresome, you are not afraid of going to battle.
Extremely protective of loved ones, you root for the underdog.
You are picky about details and rigorous in your methods.
You also value honesty and fairness a great deal.
You [...]

Bush’s Support of Abortion

10 years ago, with eager support from the Clinton administration, Congress enacted the so-called “Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act.” That measure created a federally enforced ‘no protest zone’ around abortion “clinics”. Under FACE, protesters who obstruct access to abortuaries can be prosecuted for federal offenses. The same is not [...]

I’m a picture bandwidth hog

I really love to put pictures in my posts. So I’ve just about exceed my bandwidth already. AGAIN. I just upgraded to the next largest bandwidth package and ate up all my bandwidth. Damn.
What I can’t figure out is–when I upload a picture, and figure out it’s the wrong [...]

Hands Off The Electoral College~!

December 27, 2004 (Ron Paul)
The intense media focus on the divide between “red” and “blue” states in the wake of the presidential election has raised new questions regarding our federal voting system. One U.S. Senator has promised to introduce legislation to abolish the electoral college, claiming it is an anachronism that serves no good [...]

Tsunami Help

Michelle at a Small Victory has a list of charities who are helping the Tsunami victims here.
The UN has pledged to “help”, but I don’t have any faith in those incompetents, with news like this. Honestly, US membership in that organization is a total waste of money and we should just get the hell [...]

Feds Ignore Sex Abuse

Months before Hollywood and the libs launched the massive love-fest for Kinsey, the movie, your fed tax dollars were hard at work promoting a dreadful annual report that would have made the pervert proud. (see the previous piece about Kinsey here) Each year, since 1997, the Fed Interagency Forum on Child and Family [...]
