Every time I hear the president or his flunkies talking about the sacrifices
we must make, and how
we must stay the course in Iraq, my
blood pressure shoots straight up. He and his circle of advisors don't know the first thing about putting themselves on the line for a cause.
Will Pitt came up with a great new drinking game. Watch Bush speak, and every time he tells a lie take a shot. Whatever you do, hide the keys. You'll
be hammered by the end of it.

"But we know that nothing of value is ever earned without sacrifice."
-- Condoleezza Rice, addressing US soldiers, 19 March 2005
"We," eh? "We"? That's interesting. I'm not seeing a lot of "we" in the 1,743 dead American soldiers from Iraq, the ones who bore the
sacrifice Rice used as a talking point back in March. I'm not seeing a lot of "we" in the story of Pfc. Diane Cardile, the 23-year-old troop who is
sitting in a German hospital with extensive burns.
