A thought or two

I just read where Bush said that he thought that the hanging of Saddam Hussein wasn’t very dignified. Has there ever been a “dignified” hanging? I don’t think so. Murder by any name is never dignified and executions are always barbaric, symbolic of a failing civilization.

And then I read this; made my day!

“Bush claims power to open Americans' mail without warrants.
'Signing statement' says he has power to do so in 'emergency situations.'”

First, lets get real here…terrorists are going to use the US Mail to communicate with each other? Why?

Second, when is someone going to take him up on this “signing statement” nonsense, where he Decides what a law means to him. Under his rules, if he says it while signing a bill into law…his words become part of that new law. Even if the law, as written, disagrees with what he said. His words become the law. It’s nonsense and it’s time for the courts to say so.

And last…
“Even if it's creepy, cloned meat is safe and tasty, says the Food and Drug Administration.”

Why would anyone call it creepy? Who are these people and where are there brains? We have been eating “cloned” fruits, nuts and grains for years. Generations of Americans have eaten fruit and nuts that can’t exist in a natural world. Grains have the same story. Read the story of Luther Burbank, “Cloner” of the plant world.
