Yo to all youse guys.
Adrian got back from choich, and said she gotta set me up with a real e-mail account. Now I don't know much about computers, but she said she gonna fix me up wit a hot-mail account to which I replied "you my hot-female baby, lets go make like some elderberries and whine." Heh heh.
Tanks for dis news babaloo, as I do know how to work my TV. I'm gonna watch dose Dems, and see if I see that Rickey guy lurking in duh shadows.
Let's get a substantive discussion going on the issues that separate the Democrats (might be a welcome departure from the mud-slinging).
From the Contra Costa Times article on these televised appearances:
All three Democrats criticized the Bush administration's handling of the Iraq war but offered different solutions.
Filson said it's "irresponsible to get out now," Thomas wants to "start immediately pulling troops out" and McNerney suggests "a public timetable for withdrawal."
Thoughts?
