Wait Until September?

Everyday I read another article about a senior white house official claiming September of this year will be the magic month that will allow the Bush administration to “make a coherent judgement of where we are”.

Everyday I read another article about a senior white house official claiming September of this year will be the magic month that will allow the Bush administration to “make a coherent judgement of where we are“. What I want to know is why September is the magic month? Is Iraq going to suddenly turn into a peaceful state? Will there be another terrorist attack on American soil? Those of you who know me know I don’t buy the bin Laden/al Qaeda story about 9/11 and find it much more plausible that neocons (Dick Cheny, et al)  planned and executed the attack to gain the vise grip on the government they now hold. So what will it be. I guess we have to wait until September to find out. =/

the blog is back!

After a little convincing from Susan, I’ve decided to take another shot at the whole blog thing. There are always so many topics and issues that I want to cover but never seem to make it here.

Come on, oh my star is fadingI swerve out of controlIf I’d, if I’d only waitedI’d not be stuck here in this hole.Come here, oh my star is fadingand I swerve out of controlAnd I swear I waited and waitedI’ve got to get out of this hole.But time is on your side, it’s on your side nowNot pushing you down and all aroundIt’s no cause for concernCome on, oh my star is fadingAnd I see no chance of releaseAnd I know I’m dead on the surfaceBut I’m screaming underneathAnd time is on your side, it’s on your side nowNot pushing you down and all aroundIt’s no cause for concernStuck on the end of this ball and chainAnd I’m on my way back down againStood on a bridge, tied to the nooseSick to the stomachYou can say what you meanbut it won’t change a sinI’m sick of the secretsStood on the edgetied to the nooseYou came along and you cut me loose

Come on, oh my star is fading
I swerve out of control
If I’d, if I’d only waited
I’d not be stuck here in this hole.

Come here, oh my star is fading
and I swerve out of control
And I swear I waited and waited
I’ve got to get out of this hole.

But time is on your side, it’s on your side now
Not pushing you down and all around
It’s no cause for concern

Come on, oh my star is fading
And I see no chance of release
And I know I’m dead on the surface
But I’m screaming underneath

And time is on your side, it’s on your side now
Not pushing you down and all around
It’s no cause for concern

Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And I’m on my way back down again
Stood on a bridge, tied to the noose
Sick to the stomach
You can say what you mean
but it won’t change a sin
I’m sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge
tied to the noose

You came along and you cut me loose

McCain Is Old

In an interview: Reporter: “Should U.S. taxpayer money go to places like Africa to fund contraception to prevent AIDS?” Brian, would you find out what my position is on contraception – I’m sure I’m opposed to government spending on it, I’m sure I support the president’s policies on it.”

In an interview:
Reporter: “Should U.S. taxpayer money go to places like Africa to fund contraception to prevent AIDS?”

Mr. McCain: “Well I think it’s a combination. The guy I really respect on this is Dr. Coburn. He believes – and I was just reading the thing he wrote– that you should do what you can to encourage abstinence where there is going to be sexual activity. Where that doesn’t succeed, than he thinks that we should employ contraceptives as well. But I agree with him that the first priority is on abstinence. I look to people like Dr. Coburn. I’m not very wise on it.”

Q: “What about grants for sex education in the United States? Should they include instructions about using contraceptives? Or should it be Bush’s policy, which is just abstinence?”

Mr. McCain: (Long pause) “Ahhh. I think I support the president’s policy.”

Q: “So no contraception, no counseling on contraception. Just abstinence. Do you think contraceptives help stop the spread of HIV?”

Mr. McCain: (Long pause) “You’ve stumped me.”

but it gets even better

Q: “I mean, I think you’d probably agree it [contraception] probably does help stop it [HIV]?” (brackets added)

Mr. McCain: (Laughs) “Are we on the Straight Talk express? I’m not informed enough on it. Let me find out. You know, I’m sure I’ve taken a position on it on the past. I have to find out what my position was. Brian, would you find out what my position is on contraception – I’m sure I’m opposed to government spending on it, I’m sure I support the president’s policies on it.”
