"I would hope the military officials would take a second look at the decision they made."

Argh.  I hate this guy.  I know that quote's from 1999 but it still pisses me off.    And he's a C student!  And a moron!  Jeeeez!!!  Is someone else president yet?

Noticing it, of course, all comes in light of the recent decision to permit pentacles on Wiccan headstones.  Someone should be able to die and get Hello Kitty on their tombstone if they want it.  What's the deal, the person's already DEAD.

I've wanted to nail a witch ever since I saw that scene in The Doors.

I thought you were going to say the "The Witches of Eastwick."

Atleast it wasn't "Hocus Pocus"...

That's the one that did it for me.

Maybe he got cursed for that and that's why he's such a verbal blunderbuss.  He hadn't been with Queen Elizabeth 3 hours before he did it again; thanked her for attending the Bicentennial in 1776 instead of 1976. >.<

It's hard to believe someone that prone to word trippage hasn't been cursed.

I'd rather have a guy who sucks at public speaking in the White House (Bush) than have the frigging nut the left still whines over losing (Gore).

Bush is a nut, too.  And nobody really wanted Kerry, they just didn't want Bush. No matter what, America loses.

Withcraft is a religion, just not strictly organized.  The more modern version, Wicca, really didn't start until 1920.

In any case, the only Wiccans I've ever know were creepier and kookier than the Addams Family.  I fail to see why they'd even want a Christian-style burial.

I was going to criticize this one version of the news-story floating around that uses 'Wiccan' with quotes like its talking about fake Wiccans.  But then I realized there are likely more self-proclaimed Wiccans than there are, I guess, 'true' Wiccans.

There are different types, but it doesn't seem to be a sunni/shiite differential there...or they're just not killing each other, in any event.

I've already been practicing on my broomstick.

Better strap an IED on that broomstick.

Rama is right!

Practice with an IDE broomstick.

No, he said to practice with an International Endowment for Democracy brand broomstick.
