We have a serious crisis now in Iraq. I care about killer whales too (although one came close to killing me once) but don't let Bushies change the subject. Bush has bet his entire presidency and our national prestige and security on Iraq. Now comes the handover. The program from Baghdad I just watched shows that we are less secure now than we have ever been before. Sounds very chilling. Sometime things me Bushies might try to sweep Iraq under the rug and bugger out. We can't let them. We have to solve this Iraq thing now that we're there.

BTW: the largest US embassy in the world is being set up in Baghdad. What a juicy target huh? It really worries me.

Killer whales wouldn't know how to spend federal dollars if they had them. Further, if they got an allowance, we'd also have to give their prey, sea otters, seals, and tuna an allowance, too. Before you know it, they'd all be out there with motorized, polluting equipment trying to out-run each other.

It's better that we leave them alone.

Do you know what percentage of the federal budget goes to Killer Whales? It's woefully inadequate. If only my pod had invested in Halliburton.

Yep. Unfortunately, it was heavily invested in ENE and EXDS. Silly whale.

Have you guys managed to hook up yet with Luna? Poor kid got all confused and swam into a net pen the other day.
