school lunches, Palin, mo' bombings in Iraq

Seems the USDA is cracking down on school lunch programs - more inspections, etc. Now, how many years have we endured the lunch lady stuff thrown on our trays? When I was in school, incoming ;} food - burger, cheese and who-knows-what came in large brown boxes marked, "government surplus" - army rations left over from WWII. I suspect that school lunchrooms today are still getting those same boxes . . . I wonder when the government people are going to name that stuff a bio threat and have color coded signs that change with the menu of the day - from salad (green), to cheese mac (red).

Seems that the Alaska first dude has had his e-mails published - the guy tried to influence almost every branch of the State's government. More Sarah woes, I guess, if the publication nails her for inappropriate use of government funds.

More bombs kill folks in Iraq. I am still for a fence around the country and let them sort it out internally. (Remember the 'Escape from ------" movies?)

iraq, war, premature pullout

Being a news junkie, I am always intrigued by the stuff that goes on around the world. National Holiday declared for the american pullout from the cities. The admittance that Iraq will probably fall back into a feudal dispute. The fact that really the oil interests of the US of A was the reason for the overthrow of Hussein (not WMDs). Wonder why we could have not used our covert diplomacy to overthrow the goverment? Seems like the Kurds, Suunis, Shites, and whomever else will start using US and Chinese weaponry to beat the hell out of each other . . .
