Interesting...


From Barbra Streisand's blog. Lot of liberal political stuff here, but some entries are pretty good.

In 1999, George W. Bush criticized President Clinton for not setting a timetable for exiting Kosovo, and yet he refuses to apply the same standard to his war.

"Victory means exit strategy, and it's important for the president to explain to us what the exit strategy is."
-George W. Bush, 4/9/99

"I think it's also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn."
-George W. Bush, 6/5/99

"It doesn't make any sense to have a timetable. You know, if you give a timetable, you're conceding too much to the enemy."
-George W. Bush, 6/24/05


Coupla TV Snippets


Heard on Whose Line is it Anyway?
"When Sting retires, will he be called 'Stung'?" - Colin Mochrie

Heard on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno - guest Johnny Depp
JL: So, I heard that you are keen on getting Keith Richards for Pirates of the Caribbean. How is that going?
JD: Yeah, we're working on that. Of course, he has his teensy tour with the Stones to finish first.
JL: So, did you know Richards before?
JD: Before? Before the Stones? No...

Nice to see a good sense of humor, and to listen to a not corny joke...
