Let me see if I understand, our President just declared war
On Iran and Syria (sticking in that little "military" term right after diplomacy) and our Democratic Congress gave him a standing ovation? Is that correct?

4. Who's "pResident"?
# 1, he's not mine, # 2, he's not a president.

5. It sure comes across that way on the transcript.
I can't bring myself to watch, though.

Hey, lala, how're you doing these days? Last I heard, you were a bit under the weather.

15. actually, he declared war on Islam... he said Sunni terrorists
And Shi'a terrorists. The Sunni side apparently being supplied by Al Qaeda and the Shi'a by Iran and Syria with arms by which to murder all of us... reading from Zarqawi even to make his point.
