WoW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No kidding…
We were on a wooden walkway just 2-3 feet above a wild gator making his way through wetland vegetation in Paynes Prairie near–you guessed it–the home of UF’s Florida Gators, Gainesville. He (or she) was at least a 10 footer…probably 11-12. We were visiting my son, Jonathan…a new Gator. We’ll have 3 of our 4 kids in college this year…Ouch!
So…are you following Saddam’s trial on the heels of the recent Iraqi vote on the constitution?
Regardless of your politics, this has to be bad news for the Bush-bashers.
Saddam can’t be left alive. That will have those whom he intimidated for years living in constant fear of a coup that will one day see him released and restored to power.
My preference? Kill him slowly…let him suffer from the effects of gassing like tens of thousands of Kurds who did not die right away like thousands of others did. Forget about trying to prove how much better we are than him by imprisoning him or such. He laughs at that.
And, as long as the folks at State don’t wind up shafting the Kurds yet again to appease Arabs, we may indeed wind up with something to be proud of in a lasting way over there.
And if Dubya does what he needs to do regarding squeezing the Syrians instead of the Jews…who knows where this may all lead to?
School papers to grade…Catch you later!
