    Osama bin Laden, Mullah Omar and Ayman al-Zawahiri are still OK, though, right???

    Whew, that’ll be a relief to Democrats and other traitors.

    I just heard on the radio that the Phillipine government has killed the head of Al Qaeda in the Phillipines. I haven’t yet seen anything in print to confirm.

    Well, the New York Times did find a disgruntled taxi driver to rebuke the American attacks.

    I should clarify that it was a disgruntled Somali taxi driver.

    Howzabout let’s see if y’all can achieve any. Nancy Pelosi’s first week hasn’t been very encouraging.

    Not that I expected much.

    And by “hasn’t been very encouraging”, I really mean “makes the GOP’s chances in ’08 look a lot better than they seemed three weeks ago”.

    Nancy Pelosi isn’t Commander in Chief of the U.S. military, Chachi.

    Yet.
