1. She looks like a robot

No soul at all. Her eyes are weird.

2. Ohio's Katherine Harris. America's humiliation.

She runs marathons. Bush works out. Healthy in body, horrid in mind and heart. But wealthy. What a country we have now.

4. Are they talking about Katrina related bills

or all approprations legislation? Remember Jean, pork for your district is your friend. Signing such pledges makes you useless to your district. Ah forget it, she's a "one and doner" anyhow.
