I read an article on CNN this morning that said that according to satellite images the 2 MILE WIDE MUSHROOM CLOUD was not the result of a nuclear explosion. Joy of joys. Of course the North Korean Government has not responded to requests for information, and we know how trustworthy they have seemed to be in the past.

I do not know. I used to wonder why, if we were going after Saddam for having WMD, why we did not do more than minor saber rattling toward North Korea. Oh wait. I know why, because the man in charge over there would not hesitate to push the button. It is always fun to live in a world populated by people so power drunk they don't really understand the consequences of their actions.

In other news, it seems that Kerry in engendering further discontent with his refusal to actually address an issue. (Shocking, I know.) It seemed to me that his entire platform was "Hey!! Vote for me!! I am not G.W. Bush!!!" and he thought that he might actually win the presidency with that strategy. I was never a fan of Kerry. He just seems to not have any real opinions on anything other than "My wife will make a great first lady!"

I am tired of it. I am tired of the dueling image machine, I am tired of the Kerry being unable to form an opinion without checking the polls, and I am tired of G.W. Bush and his cowboy review on world politics and policy. (Whoops, it seems I slipped in a little personal opinion there.) I have stated elsewhere my discontent with the two major party candidates. I am still seriously considering voting for Badnarik on principle alone.

more in a bit.
