Syria and Iran vow unity against US

Bashar al-Assad, the Syrian president, and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, his Iranian counterpart, have pledged to work together to confront US and Israeli "plots" in the Middle East.

Al-Assad arrived in Iran for a two day visit aimed at bolstering robust ties, his second trip to the Islamic republic since Ahmadinejad took power in August 2005.

Al-Assad said: "We should co-operate and work to make the public aware of the sinister aims of the United States and the Zionists."

The two leaders, accused by the US of destablising the region, warned against the dangers of disunity between Sunni and Shia Muslims in Lebanon and Iraq.

 As much as I hate to say it, they are correct about the aims of the U.S. and those Zionist which Bush seems to lay in bed with.

Senator Elizabeth Dole Campaigning For Re-Election

   I was hoping that this broad would just limp off into the sunset, preferably in another state other than North Carolina, but NOOOOOO!

  Dole hit the trail on Friday praising her service to the state of NC and still backing Bush and his failed Iraq war. She gave a talk at a GOP dinner on Friday night, which served some pretty good barbecue from what I hear.  Dole is now 70 years old.

"I want to tell you tonight I am going to run for re-election to the United States Senate," Dole said, prompting a standing ovation from 250 people attending a Lincoln/Reagan Day barbecue dinner at Southwood Memorial Christian Church. "I am going to need your help as we rev up the campaign for 2008."

She talked about the billions of dollars that will be available to North Carolinians because of her efforts to push through Congress a buyout of the federal tobacco program. Dole noted that North Carolina's military installations survived the base closings and added 4,000 jobs at Fort Bragg.
