Lighten up dude. One more comment about Alice's reference to the <b>Oil For Food</b> program/scandal. For years the Left was howling that because of US/UN sanctions, 1.5 million Iraqi children were dying. But when we learned that Saddam Hussein, in concert with France, Germany and Russia, was pocketing billions of dollars that were supposed to go for food, Alice still blames the United States for "abusing" the <b>Oil For Food</b> program. Damned if you do; damned if you don't! Terance: It is April Fools Day and I was making a funny! Lighten up dude.

No wonder you wrote "because you make a lot of sense!" For example, her statement that "FNS wants congress to quit the investigations and do only the peoples business." Who is she talking about? Last Sunday Fox News Sunday had four panelists, host Chris Wallace and at least two guests. Did they all shout in unison "do the people's business?"

IMO, she sounds like a female Hugo Chavez! Terance: Alice’s post was full of hysterics and vitriol in the Shaun/Mr. A/Me/MikeD mode. No wonder you wrote “because you make a lot of sense!”

Off topic but now FNS wants congress to quit the investigations and do only the peoples business in the 3 months that the dems have been in the majority.
