IF (with apologies to Rudyard Kipling)

If If you can keep your smile when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But feel superior because OF their doubting too; If you can claim you are the one for whom we're waiting, Or, throw others under the bus, yet deal in lies, Or, watch Reverend Wright for twenty years and not see hating, And keep cred both in the 'hood, and midst the wise; If you can Dream - with a book "Dreams From My Father"; But writing for Harvard Law Review just...

(Check out volume 1 from last March here.) If... Your child confesses to living a double life that's 3 letters and starts with G, and you hope it's G-A-Y and not G-O-P... You think the only way to keep all of Obama's czars straight is to appoint a Czar Sorting Czar... You think the popularity of Che Guevara t-shirts is a great example of how free-market capitalism works... You're a hippie that wants to do your part by buying energy efficient light bulbs, now all you need is a home to use them in... You're from Florida, you voted...

IF If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you But make allowance for their doubting too, If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream--and not make dreams your master, If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat...

Weather Attacks
Posted by admin / Under If I Were King Of The Forest
Climate Change: Some in Congress think global warming is so important it should be an issue of national defense, not science. It's a wrongheaded and dangerous idea, one that shows how crazy the debate has become. Unfortunately, the proposal to make global warming a matter of national security is bipartisan, with Sen. Chuck Hagel, a Nebraska Republican, joining Sen. Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, as co-sponsors. If nothing else, this proves neither party has a monopoly on wisdom. According to the Boston Globe, their plan calls for the U.S. intelligence chief to produce a "national intelligence estimate" on global warming....

Palestinians: Chemical warfare if Israel invades Gaza
Posted by admin / Under If I Were King Of The Forest
JERUSALEM – If Israel launches a ground assault in the Gaza Strip, the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terror group will attack Israelis with chemical and biological weapons the group has developed, according to a pamphlet distributed yesterday by the Brigades. But sources in the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, speaking on condition of anonymity, said while the group is attempting to acquire biological and chemical agents, their current capabilities in the field still are mostly primitive. "With the help of Allah, we are pleased to say that we succeeded in developing over 20 different types of biological and chemical weapons, this...

Big new reservoir of water ice suspected under Mars 13:54 16 March 2006 NewScientist.com news service Maggie McKee, Houston Mars Express, ESA MARSIS, ESA Thomas Watters, National Air and Space Museum A large and previously unknown reservoir of water ice may have been found below the surface of Mars, new radar observations suggest.

Not A Good Thing (If stealing and destroying secret documents isn't a crime worthy of jail time...)
Posted by admin / Under If I Were King Of The Forest
Not A Good Thing Ibd Wed Nov 2, 7:00 PM ET Politics: If stealing and destroying secret documents, stuffing them into your pants and then lying about it isn't a crime worthy of jail time, why is having a different recollection of events than Tim Russert? If the charges swirling around Scooter Libby -- that he deceived those investigating a crime for which he was not charged -- seem familiar, they should. Not long ago Martha Stewart was indicted and convicted, not of insider trading in a suspiciously timed stock sale, but of deceiving investigators into a crime for which...
