There appears to be a push by the Russians to
invade and take over Georgia, not only the two smaller breakaway provinces that Georgia and Russia are fighting about. President Bush reportedly spoke to former President Putin about the situation, at the Olympics, and Putin told him that Russia was his territory and it was no one else's business, in essence. The Russian attacks have escalated, even though the Georgian Government, signed on to a cease fire agreement, and withdrew their troops. About one thousand Georgian troops who were stationed in Iraq, are being flown back to Georgia, by the U. S. Government. here's hoping that the Russian Government does not shoot down the U. S. plane and starts something no one wants to see happen.

Pakistan's President Musharraf, is being threatened with impeachment, if he does not step down. He reportedly said he would not resign. The resolution for impeachment is supposedly being drawn up and if the President does not resign, he will be impeached. The Parliment could be disbanned by the President, and the military could reinstate him as Head of the military, which is the force that is actually in control of the country, according to sources familiar with the country.

Former Senator John Edwards, he of past running for President of the U. S. fame, confessed to having an extra-marital affair with a video-grapher, who worked for his campaign for a while. She has given birth to a child, who Mr. Edwards says is not his, and he is willing to have a paternity test done to prove it, but it seems the mother is not interested in knowing who the father is, as she is not going to co-operate with the authorities or anyone else who wants to know.
Trust that the Enquirer, which broke the story,
will obtain a swatch of the babys hair, and
DNA from a glass that John Edwards leaves behind, with his "love lips" (as his mistress says she called him) imprint, to test and see if the child really is his, which everyone already have assumed, is the case.
My question is, he said he told his wife about the affair, then why did she allow him to run for president,knowing there was a bombshell waiting out there to explode, unless she (his wife), wanted this to be exposed to ruin his political career for life? Just asking?

A woman who had killed her fiancee, after he did something very stupid, but I am sure not worthy of being killed over, called up to a radio station, and confessed to killing him after ten years. She gave all the details, the host said to her, you know we have an 800 number, that you call in on, but we do have a record of your number, you could be charged with the crime. She said, well, people make things up all the time and quickly hung up. The station reported the incident, supplied the police with the tape, I am sure, as there is no statute of limitations on murder. The woman is now being questioned by the authorities. People still shock the heck out of me.
