No more late nights with Bulgarian cab for me;
[Camelspider.typepad.com] Howdy's BLOG: I usually try and not re-print drivel, but this one lie needs to be framed in the correct context There is nothing more of a lie than the notion that poor defenseless American boys and girls are poorly protected as they serve in Iraq.
