Actually watched some the national news last night, which is always a mistake. Imagine my dismay when I discovered that there are indications that the administration is already gearing up for further mischief in Iran and Syria.

I love the 'talking heads' who won't deny the charges outright, but choose minor details to nitpick. Of course, the news readers and commentators advise us, the Administration would never try and bring us to war THIS TIME without proving their intelligence was accurate. The American public would demand such a thing. Right...Just like last time!

Anyone really believe that? Or that the Iranians or Syrians would be the initial cakewalk that the coalition found in Iraq? Also, do you believe that even the British would back us on this one?

The other story getting some airplay is the amount of security which will be called into play for the coronation this Thursday. Nice to live in a democracy, but let's keep the royal family and retainers safe from protestors, leftists and other terrorist threats. From the few reports I sat through it seems that we'll have enough troops, police and Secret Service types to take down anything the Yippies can throw at them. :-)

Keep your head down fellow-traverlers, they don't even have to pretend this time out!
