#2 LOL! Perfect Az! They can still chalk little special love messages and greeting on the ordnance, right?

#3 We should probably let the State Department pukes do that. After all, condolences really should be sincerely expressed.

#4 Wouldn't every terrorist on Israel's hit list show up at this funeral? Sounds to me like the perfect place for a nice alpha strike by the entire Israeli air force.

#5 Wouldn't every terrorist on Israel's hit list show up at this funeral?

That's more or less what I was thinking.

#6 I know at least one reason why nobody from State should attend.

#7 Spot-on, TGA.

Hmmmm. On second thought, perhaps we should send that contingent of mid-level State staffers who are self-righteous political partisan poofs that entered service during Camelot II (lol - the Clintoon era), are convinced their shit doesn't stink, and are utterly determined to sabotage the Foreign Policy of President Bush. They would not be missed should something untoward occur during the festivities. Not that we know of any such plot! Heaven forbid! *wink wink nudge nudge*

Would it be uncouth to ululate during the program?

#9 Watching yesterday's Hamas march,all of them armed,seemed like a good time for a few straffing runs.I was wondering if Suhieee was going to attend,after all her period of morning ended when she got her first 22 mill check.

#10 Can't we just send his lover, Jimmuh al-Carter? One-way, of course.
