Re:I thought I'd heard of everything, now this: The F.I.B. was simply involved in a variant of this old joke: Message 17541774 ******************************************************* Remember how Condolezza Rice went on and on a couple weeks ago about how no one could have possibly thought that Bin Laden might use a plane as a weapon? Somebody sure did: freerepublic.com Well, we now have: 1) investors calling for Harvey Pitts' head, 2) civil libertarians calling for Ashcroft's head, 3) environmentalists calling for Gale Norton's head, 4) small farmers calling for Ann Veneman's head, 5) labor calling for Labor secretary Chao's head, 6) teachers calling for Rod Paige's head, 7) Californians calling for Spencer Abraham's head, 8) body cavity searched grannies calling for Norm Mineta's head, 9) Robert Byrd calling for Paul O'Neill's head, 10) scared welfare mom's calling for Tommy Thompson's head, 11) the GAO calling for Cheney's head, 12) David Obey calling for Mitch Daniel's head, 13) John Sweeney calling for Robert Zoellick's head....... Can calls for Condolezza to head home be far behind? Gosh, this is starting to remind me of one of my favorite political candidates of all time, Oat Willy, of Austin, Texas who made the astute observation that "It's nice to have friends in high places." He owned several "head" shops. Though these GOP trophies weren't the stock in trade.
