How much better can it get?

"Former Texas Gov. Ann Richards observed the other day that the price of gasoline has gone so high in Texas that women who want to run over their husbands have to car pool.

Thought we needed a laugh before plunging back into the war. Here's a lovely item.

The Australian Broadcasting Corp. reports that U.S. soldiers in Iraq are being asked to pray for President Bush. Thousands of Marines have been given a pamphlet, put out by In Touch Ministries, called "A Christian's Duty." It is a mini prayer book that includes a tear-out card to be mailed to the White House pledging that the soldier who sends it has been praying for Bush.

"I have committed to pray for you, your family, your staff and our troops during this time of uncertainty and tumult," says the card. "May God's peace be your guide."

That's special." GAWD !! I LOVE MOLLY IVINS!
