- The donor's conference for Iraq is over, and the peace-loving Global Community has come up with an extra $13 billion dollars for Iraq, excluding the United States contribution. Can you say "disgrace"? It is looking more and more like a good portion of the world community has been putting money at a greater premium than the liberty and future of the Iraqi people.

Note that Microsoft doesn't run videos that make real weblog software look hopelessly out of date, like Apple did with Marc Canter's software (and mine, btw). |
