Critics of U.S.
President George W. Bush's handling of the Iraq war are "grossly unfair" and
have forgotten the brutality of deposed Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein, Bush's
father said in an interview published on Friday.

Subject: Toys from China
Lisa,
I just heard some morning show guy on MSNBC say that the communist Chinese are deliberately poisoning our children by putting lead/date rape drugs in their toys. Does that qualify as a conspiracy theory?
What the hell am I supposed to buy my kids for Christmas???? It's been heartbreaking enough having to take away several recalled toys from my boys. All made by Mattel in China.

OMG. That morning show guy must be Joe Scarborough -- Mr Talk Off The Top of His Head Extraordinaire. Republicans are still playing the communism card, they can't help it, it's programmed in them. And yeah, I think that qualifies as a conspiracy theory, a really stupid one.
The Chinese think in the long term, not in instant gratification terms as we Americans do. Why would the Chinese ruin their growing economic power with their largest importer? I mostly blame the importers of these defective toys, mostly American companies who obviously never tested the product they imported from "semi-dark age China, using cheap labor" -- even more reason to keep a close eye on the products sold to our children. Shame on Mattel.
Target has a huge list of toys that are American made click here . I wonder if those American toys have been tested? Especially if they're Republican owned! ;)
Be careful when shopping though, al Qaeda may be coming to a mall near you.
IPods and IPhones may be toxic too, according to a report I heard on CNN. OMG, my son has owned an IPod for years and he's now speaking Chinese! There is a Chinese conspiracy!
Aqua Dots were recalled from toy stores across America Wednesday. If swallowed, a chemical in the dots turns into a date-rape drug. Hopefully it will get parents to tell their children to stop playing and get back onto the Internet where it's safe.- Argus Hamilton

Bush-Prison-Torture News Condi,
Condoleezza Rice is, by her own admission, not "that self-reflective." But in an interview in her office on Thursday the secretary of state took a moment to contemplate the improved security situation in Iraq. Asked whether she and the Bush administration had made any mistakes early on "that you're perhaps trying to redeem yourself for," she responded with her trademark steely smile. "I'm sure there are lots of things we might have done better," she said. "I'll give you one with Iraq. If I had to do it all over again, we would have had the balance between center, local and provincial better. But that's the kind of thing you learn over time."
