A Few Highlights of the Day

Annan: Israel guilty of truce violations
UN secretary-general meets with Defense Minister Peretz, slams Israel for violating southern Lebanon ceasefire. Annan also calls on Israel to lift aerial, naval blockade imposed on Lebanon since beginning of war.
I don't think so! Ahmadinejad challenges U.N., Bush
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad today challenged the authority of the U.N. Security Council as Iran faces a deadline to halt its uranium enrichment, and he called for a televised debate with President Bush on world issues.
Wouldn't that be amusing. Amibooboo doesn't speak English, and Bush doesn't speak Persian. U.S. Incomes Up, 1st Rise Since '99
Americans' incomes rose last year for the first time since 1999, the Census Bureau reported today. But the poverty rate stayed stubbornly high - and more people were without health insurance than ever before.
This should annoy the libs. Unfortunately, "there will always be poor among us". Fugitive Polygamist Sect Leader Arrested in Las Vegas
A fugitive polygamist leader who was on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List was found with cell phones, laptop computers, wigs and more than $50,000 in cash when he was arrested, authorities said Tuesday.
One seriously disgusting pervert! I wonder if his idea of having so many wives is not religion based, but rather that he can't....um...perform up to snuff, and is embarrassed? Just a thought. No matter, he's still a sick puppy! Tropical storm drenches southern Florida
Tropical Storm Ernesto's leading edge drenched Miami and the rest of southern Florida on Tuesday as it steamed toward the Sunshine State with a potential for more than a foot of rain. But forecasters said there was only an outside chance it would strengthen into a hurricane.
It's Bush's fault! :) Rumsfeld: Bush Foes Lack Courage on Terror
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld on Tuesday accused critics of the Bush administration's Iraq and counterterrorism policies of lacking the courage to fight terror.
I think Rumsfeld has a point there. A sorry exhibition
The third exhibition game, the one moment of semi-truth for any team in the National Football League, couldn't have turned out more abysmally for the Green Bay Packers.
Cincinnati, 48 - Packers, 17. Ok, they did more than lose, they got squashed. Know what? I don't care! :) It's a game fer petes sake!
