After a burdensome and rough re-entry to graduate school, I’ve decided on a quick little vacation to visit some friends and ‘family’ that have been dear to me through the years. I won’t be completely vacationing… I’ll be doing research for my thesis, but hey… that’s just a day job.
Before I head out, there were a few things that were pretty stinkin’ eventful this week… And to lead off with the greatest story:
- Karl Rove is retiring… I think his resignation means that another angel gets its wings… or they’re preparing him a flame in hell. I can’t remember which one. Maybe it’s both! John Edwards had some parting words…
- A new Iraq report suggests the vulnerability of another Al-Qaeda attack. It’s shocking, unbelievable news… that we’ve known since 9/11.
- In the battle of the first and foremost primary/caucus that could possibly slip into December of THIS YEAR, Iowa has bowed out and vows to hold it in 2008.
- ‘W’ is asking for a crackdown on the border… shocker, I know.
- In another shocker, Tommy Thompson dropped from the presidential race. Did anyone really know who he was, anyway?
- It turns out that Guiliani could be this elections flip-flopper.
Enjoy, and bon voyage… minus the boat, add a car and many miles. Cheap, cheap vacation.
