Call me a Liberal, Too

If being a liberal means grieving for our thousands of injured and dead young soldiers, sent to fight an unnecessary war against the wrong enemy in a cultural and religious tinder keg, then call me liberal.

If being a liberal means to mourn innocent Iraqis who have been maimed or killed, who have watched their cities flattened and their children die as byproducts of this ill-begotten foray into nation-building, then I'm a liberal.

If being a liberal is to despair over the futility of winning a war while savaging a nation, creating a democracy while humiliating a culture, and smashing terrorism while infusing it with new fervor, then call me a liberal . . . . Link

Greetings From Fallujah

Unconfirmed sources report that Iraqi insurgents who held Fallujah have greeted American forces with open arms. The insurgents packed the streets and rooftops of the city and rained flowers and candies upon the assaulting American troopers. Fallujah is peaceful tonight, as American forces have liberated the town without firing a shot.

Dolly Parton's Planned Breast Reduction Surgery Prompts Red State Crisis

Country icon Dolly Parton's plans for a breast reduction surgery plunged the nation's Red states into a crisis today as heartbroken Southern Americans struggled with the painful news.

"We were worried something like this might happen if John Kerry were elected, but now its happened anyway," said an angry Mable Robinson of Salem, Alabama, "you can bet I'll be expecting something from President Bush to stop this."
....................
Sources say political director Karl Rove is working with Attorney General John Ashcroft on a Constitutional Amendment barring Parton from having the surgery, but there are some complications.
