Mad and Worried
I'm mad. The news reported that the president said he had not "made up his mind" as to whether to send more troops or call them home. Made up his mind--what a cavalier and ridiculous way to refer to people's lives on the line. He's not sure, maybe if he likes his new haircut... Then the news said that he was in Indonesia and that there were large protests with people chanting death to him. That's a freaky scary part of the world to be in if you are this president--he could get killed. I have great respect for our secret service, but what a bad idea to be there of all places on the planet. What, all of a sudden he doesn't like his comfy ranch anymore where the only threat is the mother of a fallen soilder--I'm thinking they are a whole lot less scary than radicals in Indonesia--not too many suicide bombers in that crowd. Come home pres--you have important decisions to make. Set a policy that people can get behind and let's get things done. Maybe Nancy can give you the name of her psychic--don't tell the media you called--our troops don't want to know how you decide--they just want to know what they are supposed to do, so they can do it and come home.

I heard that same report and nearly hit the roof. I picture W sitting down with a sheet of paper divided in half and labeled "pro" and "con."
I also wish the president good health. First, because he is a human being and I can't wish him ill, but second because of who is next in line. *shudder*

When I heard that report this morning, I pictured him with a Magic 8 Ball. Or maybe picking petals off a daisy.

Erika, did you know the Dixie Chicks get a chicken foot tattoed on their foot for every hit they have?

I guarantee I did not know that. Nevermind!
