Bloomberg needs to get over himself. Politicians who wish to change law to stay in office longer....well, I'd say should be shot, but I don't mean that literally, I only mean it figuratively.

On that, we can agree.

So did Bush invade Syria to help McCain's "the Republicans will protect you from the evil" campaign area?

I think the term "raid" is probably more accurate than "Invasion" at least for now.

We apparently grabbed at least two men during the raid. I wonder who they are.

Also, given that we are fighting a civilian ememy, I find it interesting the reports we always seem to hear that "x number of civilians" were killed.

They're only combatants when they get to Guantanamo.

Huh, so if Steven's is forced out I wonder who they might look at to fill his shoes.

He's up for re-election next week so I don't think he'll need to be replaced; this should make it certain he'll lose the election. Though up to today he was polling behind, it wasn't by very far. I forget the opponent's name but he's the current mayor of Anchorage.

I wonder if Stevens'll officially resign or just let his term lapse in January.
