The problem with politicians is they never say what they mean. They say what will get them the most votes, or what is chic today or what ever. Here's an example from the Drudge report on Wesley Clarke.
Wesley was for the war before he decided to run against GWB, Now he's against it because he thinks that will get him the most votes. If you want to vote for a man like that go ahead. I plan to vote for GWB because he is the only one who has a plan for dealing with the jihadist threat, The number one threat from outside this country.

WES CLARK MADE CASE FOR IRAQ WAR BEFORE CONGRESS; TRANSCRIPT REVEALED
**World Exclusive**
Two months ago Democratic hopeful Wesley Clark declared in a debate that he has always been firmly against the current Iraq War.
"I've been very consistent... I've been against this war from the beginning," the former general said in Detroit on October 26.
"I was against it last summer, I was against it in the fall, I was against it in the winter, I was against it in the spring. And I'm against it now."
But just six month prior in an op-ed in the LONDON TIMES Clark offered praise for the courage of President Bush's action.
"President Bush and Tony Blair should be proud of their resolve in the face of so much doubt," Clark wrote on April 10, 2003. "Can anything be more moving than the joyous throngs swarming the streets of Baghdad? Memories of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the defeat of Milosevic in Belgrade flood back. Statues and images of Saddam are smashed and defiled."

Even the most ardent Clark supporter will question if Clark's current and past stand on the Iraq war -- is confusion or deception, after the DRUDGE REPORT reveals:

The other day, GWB announced his Idea of a manned moon base and a trip to Mars. Of course all over the world people have something to say about it.
"You know of course I invented Mars, and space ships"

"I expand the coverage of my previous Fatwah. Praise be to God, who revealed the Book, controls the clouds and planets, defeats factionalism, and says in His Book "But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the pagans wherever ye find them, seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war)"; and peace be upon our Prophet. This means we must lie in wait for these infidel rockets to arrive on Mars and attack them."

"I did not have sexual relations with that Martian woman"

"This empowers President Bush and his entourage from the extreme right wing. That's why I was against the war in Iraq and that's why I am against this"

You know I served on Mars during the Vietnam War"

"I was against this last summer, and I was for it last week, today I'm not sure what you want to hear so I don't know what my position is today.

I saw a rerun of Toby Keiths interview on 60 minutes. I had missed it when it was new. And I never heard this song before. It's on his Shock and Ya'll CD. Here's the lyrics. Toby Keith don't take no prisoners. :) The song is actually about a man who lived in Afghanistan under the Taliban who wasn't too happy with them.
Today is payday, wonder what I am going to buy today?
Enjoy
The Taliban Song Lyrics
I'm just a middle-aged middle-eastern camel-heardin man
I got a little two-bedroom cave here in North Afghanistan
Things used to be real nice and they got out of hand
Since they moved in
They call themselves the Taliban
Oooh, yeah the Taliban
Oooh the Taliban, baby
Oh Yeah
Now I aint seen my wife's face since they came here
They make her wear a scarf over her head
That covers her from ear to ear
She loves the desert and the hot white sand
But man shes just like me
Naw she cant stand the Taliban
Oooh, oooh the Taliban, baby
But you know someday soon we're both gonna sadle up
And it'll be ride, camel ride
My old lady she'll be here with me
Just smilin right by my side
We should do just fine out around Palestine
Or maybe Turkmenistan
We'll bid a fair adieu and flip the finger to
The Taliban
I know where your coming from brother.
This is a patriotic love song, so ya'll feel free to salute if you want to, I'll give you permission!
Now they attacked New York City
'Cause they thought they could win
Said they would stand and fight until the very bloody end
Mr. Bush got on the phone with Iraq and Iran and said
Now you sons-of-bitches you better not be doing any business
With that Taliban
So we prayed to Allah with all of our might
Until those big US jets came flying in one night
And they dropped little bombs all over their holy land
Man you should have seen them run! Like rabbits they ran.
The Taliban
But you know someday soon we're both gonna saddle up
And it'll be ride, camel ride
My old lady, she'll be here with me
Just smilin right by my side
We should do just fine out around Palestine
Or maybe Turkmenistan
We'll bid a fair adieu and flip a couple fingers to
The Taliban
And we'll bid a fair adieu and give a big boner to
The Taliban
Taliban
Well OK. ??

But it was strangely interesting. Think I'll stop by occasionally and see if the little fella has any more trouble with those sticky mousetraps.
There are some people who just have dropped of the left end of reality.
The person who made this pic is one of them.

I wonder if a good swift kick in the teeth would bring them back to reality?
Nah it wouldn't.
But I still volunteer to give it a try.
