profusus sum

Are we still in Iraq? It all seems like a bad dream from which we should be able to wake up any day now. That must be how it seems to Jill Carroll. The things people have said about her make me feel sick to my stomach. It's that nauseous feeling one gets from watching someone vomit up their own bile. If only they made rose-tinted pepto-bismol for neo-convervatitis.

I would challenge anyone of the right-wing bloggers who are citicizing the statements which she made under the duress of captivity to go enlist in the U.S. Army, to strap on an M-16, and to go do their best to root out some terrorists. Otherwise I think they should shut up about someone who has the courage to go somewhere mortally dangerous to tell the truth about that place. God forbid that they put their own life on the line to do the same.

Of course, Jimmy Dobson is going to feel vindicated by this study, which states that there is a correlation between teenage sexual activity and their viewing of sex in the media. Both CBS and ABC give their interpretation. Guess what they say--it's all the parents' fault.
