to iron this all out: Kerry supposedly really did (uh huh) believe Saddam had WMD, and his real desire was to have the UN be the decider of what the US should do in response (surprise!), but because of politics and not wanting to be seen as weak, he voted in favor of the Iraq war resolution.

James Taranto called Kerry’s move back in September 2003.

Democrats: Playing politics with the war then. Playing politics with the war now.
Will provided the reality of who is really making a ton of money off of every gallon of gas you purchase. “While oil companies make about 13 cents on a gallon of gasoline, the federal government makes 18.4 cents (the federal tax)…” When you add in the tax imposed by States, you discover that California, for example, makes 40.2 cents on that same gallon of gas, and San Francisco collects a local sales tax of 8.5 cents. In Wisconsin, the State law requires retailers to sell gasoline for 9.18 percent above the wholesale price.

Federal, state and local communities extract more from your wallet than Big Oil every time you top off your car’s gas tank.

It’s not that Big Oil isn’t making billions, but they are also spending billions to insure that you can have gasoline for your car and oil to heat your home, plus all the other products that are derived from oil. And Big Oil is faced with a world of problems in the process. As Business Week recently noted, “Much of the global oil patch is now off-limits.”

In case you haven’t noticed, Hugo Chavez, Venezuela’s dictator, intends to take over the assets of the oil companies that have invested billions in that nation. In Nigeria, the oil industry is under attack from various factions. Iraq, now free of Saddam Hussein’s butchery, has yet to have met a reasonable standard of productivity. Iran has announced a rise in the price of gasoline because it too lacks refinery capacity. Other areas of the world, such as deepwater wells, require enormous sums of money to explore, drill, extract and transport oil.

So, you may be a bit more inclined to cut Big Oil a bit of slack. I think about that every time I fill up my car’s tank.

The average person would probably think that methamphetamine is a relatively new drug that appeared suddenly overnight. Actually, methamphetamine has been around since the early 1900’s and has had a quiet growing affect on the population as it rapidly spreads across the physical and socio-economic boundaries of America. Also know as meth, crystal, crank and speed, it is the backbone of Ritalin and the “club drugs” ecstasy, eve and cat. With the widespread sharing of recipes for manufacture over the internet, meth has an increasing grip on American culture.
He’s John Kerry, and he’s reporting for duty.

Related to Iraq: Did you hear there were at least three Senators who did not read the 90 page NIE report before their 2002 votes on the Iraq war? Find out who they are here.

This is the Labtec Media Keyboard Set. It is a Windows Keyboard. I haven’t tried it on Mac or Linux.

This is a ‘wireless’ keyboard and mouse set. I got mine at Costco. You can get one from Amazon. Worth every penny.
This is a closeup of the keyboard.

It has ‘extra’ buttons for some of the repetive tasks that used to require a lot of point and click.
On the top left are these buttons.

Are you just going to ignore my plea’s for help to continue the help I am giving to them? To help them find comfort in some small way?

I still need the following to continue on:

14- Quilters Need to Know Card #80932 $5.95 each
15-Fons and Porter’s Perfect Binding Cards #81035 $5.95
16- Triangle Measurement Card #80595 $4.00
17- Machine Needle Threader #81659 $5.59
18- Sew Easy Guide #81785 $5.00
19- Machine Seam Gauge & Adhesive Guide #81716 $4.89

Notice each one of these items is less than $6.50. Which means they are less than the cost of a supersized meal at Burger King, less than 2 cups of coffee at starbucks, less than a tank of gas and probably less than the pocket change you collected in your change jar this week. Can’t you please reach into your pockets and your hearts and donate to my cause?

911 dispatchers are the least recognized people in the field of emergency response teams because we are not seen and we are forgotten once help arrives, the help that we sent, but we don’t worry about it or complain, we just continue to do our jobs to the best of our abilities.

If you really want to help, get a group together and you can all pitch in for a week, here are some more of the higher end needs I have:

the battery icon has an LED below it for when it is time to change your battery, which in my opinion the best feature on the keyboard. I am a firm believer in idiot lights for computers. It’s either working or it’s not.

But Wait!
