1 I thought when I first saw this that Kyrgyzstan might be the former SSR where capital punishment consists of boiling in oil, but I think that's Uzbekistan. Still, nice to see another tinpot despot being brought down.

5 Being a "Zell Miller" Democrat, I am pleased that the United States of American overwhelmingly professional military has lit a fire that may never smolder again, but will burn brighter and higher as time moves forward. Personally I was reluctant to get involved, as we have, in Iraq, but was/am supportive of the action once initiated. I wish my parties leaders would simply publicly admit that they were wrong. No matter, at this point, why we did what we did (my belief is that it was faulty intelligence relying on Iraq insiders who were also decieved by Saddam's counciler's who couldn't admit the truth or lose their heads) the incredible impact it has had on the most troubled/troubling region of the world is so positive that they need to back off and support it with all they have. That they have'nt makes me ashamed. The United Sated of America and our military have done an incrdibly good thing here, it is time, it is time now, to acknowlege it and support our troops efforts unequivicably-now-stand up and probe that you deserve to lead the Democratic party.
