Friday Five October 29, 2004 ~ 10:21 am
Posted by Julie in : Daily Grind , trackbackNo, I haven’t resorted to memes. At least, not yet. This Friday Five is a list of five things I’ve been thinking about today.
1) Bill O’Reilly. No matter what he says, if he settled out of court, there had to have been some wrongdoing on his part. Otherwise, why pay? Pass the falafel.
2) Rudy Giuliani. If there is justice, his “Blame the troops” remark will live on to haunt him and keep him out of the White House in ‘08. Sorry, Rudy, but if the troops were never given orders by say, a Commander in Chief, why would they know that bunker was of specific value? Even if they did know, without orders, they couldn’t have done anything about it. Don’t blame men and women who are over there risking their lives for ours because our President can’t take responsibility. “Support the troops” doesn’t mean “Unless it’s them or Dubya.” It means support them through thick and thin. And protect them as they’re protecting us. Neither of which the Bush administration seems to be doing.
3) The New York Times. While the Republicans are busily blaming the Times for breaking the story about the explosives right before the election when the facts were up in the air (that’s meant to be dripping with sarcasm, but you can’t hear my voice, can you?), it’s looking more and more like it was on Bush’s watch. How about those soldiers that saw explosives there 9 days after the fall of Baghdad, huh?
4) BlogShares.com. Can anyone explain this to me in simple language? I’ve never invested in the stock market in real life, so I’m totally confused about how to do it in the Blogosphere. Traci is also a little confused, so we’re like the blind helping the blind, here. Any help would be appreciated.
5) Bill Clinton. Is it just me, or is he the only man to ever look better after heart surgery? He’s lost weight (sure, a few more pounds could make him look haggard, but for now he’s fine), and that seems to have taken years off him. Maybe campaigning for Kerry this soon after the surgery is good for his heart.
Okay, more as the day progresses. For now, I have to sort through the “mesk on my desk” as one of my elementary school teachers used to say.
