THOUGHTS AND REEFERS
Thank you for the thought: "They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years, and heck, we're not using it any more."
Thank you for the references or, as we like to call them, reefers. This one: 24 mournful notes. ("The playing of taps to honor America's fallen soldiers is a familiar sound, but at thousands of military funerals these days, not all is as it seems.") And this one: "Please don't kill me!" ("With 152 executions under his belt as governor of Texas, should we really be surprised to learn that ... our president, then governor, mocked a woman after he condemned her to death? Puckering his lips, feminizing his eyes, and letting out in a desperate squeak, 'Please don't kill me!'")
We're still not back, but when temptation calls we can't resist.
