I am sick of more Iraqis being blown up into smithereens and having most of the US' mainstream media still not call it a civil war.

I am sick of hearing pollsters say Obama, McCain and Giuliani stand a chance of getting elected to the presidency.

I am sick of Hillary too.

I am sick of having my kids be escorted to their backpacks in our post office because the government now thinks it OK to treat a 6 year-old with the same level of paranoia that gets the Lincoln Memorial closed down.
