...Guard members from
Indiana, Oregon and West Virginia were protecting workers hired by a subsidiary
of the giant contractor, KBR Inc., to rebuild an Iraqi water treatment plant.

"But in this sense, Gov. Sanford is a little like President Obama. He has Friday night date night, it's just not with his wife." --David Letterman
De-Moralized?
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Rush claims that Obama’s to blame
For Sanford’s disgrace and his shame:
The stimulus bill
Destroyed Sanford’s will.

West that cowboys had to check their guns before they could pull up a bar stool
for a drink — rules that protected against the saloon gunfights that came to

But a bill moving through the Arizona Legislature has some bar owners fearful
that the state is turning back the clock to the Old West. Lawmakers are
considering a bill that
would
allow anyone with a concealed-weapons permit to bring a handgun into bars and
restaurants serving alcohol.

"Let's run
this down, it was last week, Senator Ensign, Republican, he comes on the
television and admits he has an affair. And this week, Governor Sanford of South
Carolina, Republican, gets on the television and admits he had an affair. And I
was thinking, why do the Republicans have this problem? And it finally came to
me. The trouble started with Bob Dole when he was doing those commercials for
Viagra." --David Letterman

Lynndie England Update
More than two years since
leaving her prison cell, the woman who became the grinning face of the Abu
Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal spends most of her days confined to the four walls

manager considered hiring her, other employees threatened to quit.
"The
governor of South Carolina, yesterday, his name is Mark Sanford, he had been
missing for four days. He admitted he was visiting his mistress in Argentina,
which I think is outrageous. How dare this man, a married man, in this economy,
outsource to a foreign country when there are plenty of slutty women living
right here in the United States. Am I right, fellow Americans?" --Jimmy
