Nothing expensive, please – it’s enough just knowing you’re thinking of me.

Pic, which boasted the marquee trio of Cruise, Redford (who also directed) and Meryl Streep, isn’t expected to hit the $20 million mark in the U.S. MGM distributed Stateside, and 20th Century Fox Intl. has it overseas.

/sniff Poor liberal aren’t going to make as large a profit from their treason as they were hoping. This doesn’t break my heart in any way, at all. – Lorica

You’ll contribute to global warmi-, er, climate change, start a war for oil in Iran, and create a Christianist theocracy in America, kid.

Continued improvement,….must just about kill them to be forced to print this story, albeit with the standard *ya buts*right up front before the reader gets bored hearing about good news. The following quote is from Richard Garfield, a professor at New York’s Columbia University and a manager of health and nutrition for the World Health Organization.

“But the improving trend suggests that the right kind of presence of the international force can make a tremendous difference in how the Iraqis are doing and they will need that presence for a long time.”

Contrast that with the mealy mouth TNR *appall a gee*, which is in actuality a 14 page diatribe attempting how the form followed the function of the narrative…. expect them to submit an actual apology to the *Shock Troops* any day now. What a load! They’ve waited (NOT) for over four months now, after all what’s an extra *Never in a hundred years!*.

Sad that the treasonous activities are so extensively ignored and especially because of the arrogant unearned pride associated with the reportage.

Senate Aide In Kiddie Sex Bust

Wanna guess the party………..

FBI: Staffer for Sen. Maria Cantwell sought tryst with boy

DECEMBER 3–A U.S. Senate aide was arrested Friday after allegedly arranging a lunchtime sexual encounter with a teenage boy, according to federal court records. James McHaney, 28, was nabbed by FBI agents after he arranged the afternoon liaison via a “cooperating witness” working with investigators. According to the below felony complaint and an accompanying statement of facts filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., the CW and McHaney were conversing online Friday afternoon when the CW asked whether McHaney was interested in engaging in anal sex with a 13-year-old boy. “I’ll be there,” McHaney allegedly replied. He later asked for a photo of the child with whom he and the CW would have sex and whether the boy had “any pubes.” When told no, McHaney allegedly replied, “That’s hot.” McHaney was nabbed in the lobby of an unnamed “predetermined location,” where he had arranged to meet CW. Until his arrest Friday, McHaney had worked as the D.C. scheduler for Democratic Senator Maria Cantwell. A caller to Cantwell’s office was told late today that, as of last Friday, McHaney no longer worked for the Washington state politician.

Now, not a HUGE thing like it being a Senator or Congressman, but we do see it is not limited to one specific party.

From Forests link above…

Franklin Foer:

When Michael Goldfarb, a blogger for The Weekly Standard, left me a message on a Tuesday afternoon in mid-July, I didn’t know him or his byline. And I certainly didn’t anticipate that his message would become the starting point for a controversy.

Starting point for a controversy?

The starting point wasn’t Goldfarb, it was Foer who thought he could get away with printing anything that fit his agenda.
