Survivor!

Man I was glad to see Rob voted off the island last night.
He was the hunky little construction worker from Boston who got more paranoid and ballsier every show.
He thought he was smarter than anyone and quite the strategist, but he ended up lying and double dealing and bullshitting, and then had the gall to confront others about their shaky alliances to him. Poor Sean, the angry young black man, he was Rob's only ally and he's gonna pay for that soon I bet.
I am hoping Kathy wins, she's probably the most legit player, albeit a little pushy.

The Middle East!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, America is pro Israel, so what?
Like Palestine has been so good to us over the years. Like Arafat has been such a little angel of mercy all these years and never, ever had anything to do with any harm coming to Americans. Bullshit!
The thing is, Israel IS overdoing it right now, but I think they just got fed up with these kamikaze suicide bombers invading their neighborhoods and decided to show Palestine they could kick their asses and capture Arafat so they would get the message.
Now Dubya is having to mollify both sides so the rest of the Middle East doesn't turn on us (like they haven't already).
The thing is, Arafat's a bastard, Sharron's a bastard and both ought to step down in favor of two more moderate leaders. Fat chance.
I think we ought to go into Iraq, kill Saddam and his groupies, bomb all of his "secret" nuclear facilities and labs, then let the dust settle and see if there are any questions.
Then we need to get some straight answers out of Saudi Arabia, our "allies" who produced the bulk of the 9/11 terrorists. Allies let their allies use their land for military purposes when world peace is threatened.
Yeah, I know, we need their oil. They need our protection from Iraq, Iran and God knows what other maniacs, so there is some room to negotiate. But the Saudis ought to be compelled to stop sitting on the fence and either support the U.S. and its allies fully or face the consequences.
The entire region is a horrid powder keg, about to blow. We are already up to our eyebrows in it, so we can either lead, follow or get out, and Dubya's buddies are making too much money on the war for the latter to be an option.
