Well Russia has a "new" President. Looks like he's a throw back from the golden days.
"MOSCOW — Missiles, tanks and other heavy weaponry rolled through Moscow's Red Square in the Victory Day parade Friday, the first time since the collapse of the Soviet Union that they have appeared in the annual event."
And if Russia strutting about puffing it's chest out weren't enough, we are shown once again what total and utter f*ckwits the OPEC nations are:
"United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and his top lieutenants on Monday are convening the first meeting of the U.N.’s Task Force on the Global Food Crisis. Ban says it will “study the root causes of the crisis,” and propose solutions for “coordinated global action” at a summit of world leaders in June.
WFP internal documents show that the major oil producing nations of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) gives almost nothing to the food organization, even as skyrocketing oil prices and swollen oil revenues contribute to the very crisis that the U.N. claims could soon add 100 million more people to the world’s starving masses." See, f*ckwits.
And then there is... Myanmar/Burma.
"Myanmar's junta seized U.N. aid shipments headed for hungry and homeless survivors of last week's devastating cyclone, prompting the world body to suspend further help on Friday." So junta bastards who care less than nothing for their people seized the UN shipments of food. They have shunned all outside help from the west and are more than obviously unprepared to care for the people.
Somehow this will end up being Bush's fault.
Speaking of Bush, his daughter Jenna is to be married this weekend at the Bush family ranch in Crawford Texas. Jenna has grown into a lovely young lady with all the class of her mother. They should be proud. I wish the best to her on her wedding day and hope all goes well. It's rumored the anti-war morons who still camp outside the ranch are going to actually take the day off. How kind.
Good Luck Jenna and Harry.
And last but not least....The Congressional Housing Boondoggle. JUST SAY NO TO BAILING OUT PEOPLE FOR THEIR OWN MISTAKES. THIS IS NOT WHAT MAKES AMERICA GREAT. WE ARE NOT A SOCIALIST COUNTRY.
Please, contact The White House, tell them what you think about the government using your money to pay for other people's mortgages. Especially us who rent. And were responsible enough NOT to get involved in a BS sub prime loan.
