If You Love Joe Biden, You'll Love
Clinton, Obama, Edwards, Richardson, and Dodd -- but Not Kucinich
In a new ad blitz in Iowa today, U.S. Sen. and Democratic
Presidential candidate Joe Biden exclaims about the "wonderful"
support his "national security and foreign affairs" strategies are
getting from Senators Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Chris
Dodd; former Senator John Edwards; and New Mexico Governor Bill
Richardson. |

Annapolis is a war council dressed up as a
peace conference. On May 1, 2003, President George Bush landed on
the USS Lincoln in a flight suit and declared "Mission Accomplished
in Iraq" and declared "an end to major combat in Iraq". This may
have been a case of premature celebration. The presidential popping
of the champagne corks at sea 4 ½ years ago is the world
wide embarrasment which now has the vain one now convening a war
council to attack Iran at the United States Naval Academy in
Annapolis, Maryland. |

It has been five months since the United
Nations passed Resolution 1747 which banned the supply of nuclear
materials and technology to Iran and froze assets linked to the
country'Sanction actions in both resolutions were significantly
reduced and are basically ineffective due to the fact that both
China and Russia are Iraq's biggest trading partners and would
have vetoed the stronger U.N. Security Council Resolution proposals
favored by both Europe and the United States. Resolution 1746 was
passed by the U.N. Security Council to hold Iran accountable for
not suspending its nuclear enrichment program. |

"Obama biro, yawne yo!" (Obama is coming,
clear the way) -- Tens of thousands of cheering Luo "Tribesmen" and
ululating women screamed as they welcomed Senator Barack Obama
(D-IL) back to his father's ancestral land -- Nyangoma Kogelo
village in Luo Land, Western Kenya, several weeks ago.
In a matter of hours Obama had soared to
unprecedented political prominence in Kenya, eclipsing a bunch of
corrupt and heartless nincompoops -- The (Mt. Kenya Mafia), who are
ruthlessly grinding beautiful Kenya to the ground.
The only difference between the Mt. Kenya
Mafia and the current U.S. Republican administration, is that the
former have brought Kenya down to it's "Economic Knees," while
it's virtually impossible for George Bush's government to bring
down the mighty economy of the United States, no matter how much
they misappropriate it's coffers by way of inflated Iraq
reconstruction contracts or Katrina FEMA trailers. Otherwise both
groups employ similar schemes - exploiting and manipulating ethnic
(racial) intolerance and promoting rampant corruption -- a bunch of
"cold-blooded" louts. |

 Hotel workers say farewell to each other for the night only to find themselves re-united at the bus stop. There was a time when this exchange was awkward, but the employees eventually found ways to smooth out the interaction. For Aramis, his solution was clear. He would leave work fifteen minutes later than his co-workers so that he could have a comfortable m101 bus all to himself. This solution meant venturing down Park Avenue by himself 12:25am, a street soundtracked by anonymous screams. For Aramis, being free of his fellow co-workers who just spent the bus ride complaining about the next day of work, the crosstown had to be a peaceful ride. |

An excerpt from God, faith and health Updated Wednesday, March 7, 2007 Ruth loved her synagogue. A grandmother of three, she was an attractive member of the same congregation that she had belonged to most of her life. For so many years, every time there was an event at temple – a Shabbat service, a special celebration for the children, a committee meeting – Ruth would be there. Besides her family of course, her Jewish faith and her love of Torah and Temple were the center of her life. |
