I like to lie in the buff with my husband but I find the afghan that he adores is intolerable and detracts from our "experience".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18243376.post-17295898052508990212007-04-25T23:36:00.000-04:002007-04-25T23:36:00.000-04:00Thank you, blogging horse, for your interesting an...Thank you, blogging horse, for your interesting and informative comment and link.

Firstly we don't need to be there because we want to be in bed with the Americans. Secondly Afghans can give you very itchy skin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18243376.post-32676968216631584402007-04-25T14:01:00.000-04:002007-04-25T14:01:00.000-04:00Don't believe the elevator-hype.The Liberal motion...Don't believe the elevator-hype.<BR/><BR/>The Liberal motion was all politics and . . . well, that's all it was.<BR/><BR/>Check out military analyist Steve Staples' blog. He had an interesting seat in all this.<BR/><BR/>It turns out that he and others in the peace movement acted as go-betweens between the Liberals and NDP to craft a better motion, but the Liberals wouldn’t play ball. They were more interested in politics than having their motion pass. Staples writes: <BR/><BR/>“The Liberal motion was uncritical of the military mission and supported its continuance unchanged . . . We urged the Liberals to make a small amendment to their motion in order to win NDP support, and Former UN Ambassador for Disarmament Peggy Mason actually suggested specific changes to the language that would likely have been palatable to both Liberals and the NDP. We sent the suggestions to every Liberal and NDP Member of Parliament. The NDP even proposed an amendment during the debate, but the Liberals rejected it.”<BR/><BR/>http://ceasefireinsider.wordpress.com/2007/04/25/what-was-stephane-dion-thinking/Blogging Horsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07814673326602261801noreply@blogger.com
