1. Good For Them
I personally thank them for holding a one-day moratorium and hope DUers and other non-admirers will follow that example. Sometimes you just have to do the decent thing even when it feels skewed. End of lecture.

3. Well, personally *I* wish a fucking asteroid would have landed on them mid-service.
Done the world a favor by taking out part of that evil brood.

13. Shall we discuss the wedding party that was bombed in by the US military?
Sorry, I wish nothing good for ANY member of the BFEE.

2. Peace is for the rich.
War is fought by the little people.

5. "War is fought by the little people." And then they're forgotten.
I suppose the Peace House had to do that, but....

I really can't bring myself to care.

Not after I saw the slutty pictures, while she's now ... married in white?

:rofl:

14. I don't mean to be mean to Jenna but I can't help but think about the many families of young women
who lost their lives in the war and how they must feel seeing her wedding day. I will say I am glad she decided not to have the wedding at the White House. I know it is not her fault her father did what he did, but she did the right thing having the wedding in Crawford in more then one way. I wish her the best in her wedding.

8. It's certainly
a nice contrast to the

"Bitch in the Ditch" signs of a few years ago.

11. We wouldn't be talking about Jenna's wedding if her father hadn't stolen the Presidency
However, I have no ill feelings towards her and I wish her happiness. Jenna Bush to me has been the least hypocritical member of the Bush family.
