Spoken like a true socialist

If you had any doubt that Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero was indeed a socialist nutjob, he keeps offering up more proof…

Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, calling the war that ousted Saddam Hussein an “error,” said he would recall Spanish troops from Iraq by June 30 unless the United Nations assumes control of multinational military operations there.

Ah, his little heart must go pitter-patter at the mere mention of the United Nations being involved in Iraq. Ohhhh, if only Kofi Annan and his benevolent band of blunderers would somehow be working in Iraq, ALL would be right with the world!! WHY can we not see the err of our ways and just let the U.N. have something, anything to do in Iraq? Why?? WHY??

Whew!...got to settle down…

It just hit me

Before I forget, Happy Saint Patrick’s Day.

I was always awful at forgetting to wear green on this day when growing up, so I got lots of pinches from my friends. (Those of you old enough to remember the custom know what I mean.) There was also this ship down in San Diego, called the USS O’Brien (DD-975), a Spruance-class Destroyer (commonly called a Spru-can), whose crew got to wear green ball caps everywhere they went.

That seemed pretty cool, too.

But I digress.
