Short Attention Span Posting

For those with little time (or short attention spans), it's Quick Hits.

• Michelle Malkin offers a photo comparison of Secretary of State Dr. Condoleeza Rice. First, she shows the image published in last week’s USA Today, where Dr. Rice’s eyes appear as one would expect in a horror movie. Then Michelle shows the original, un-retouched AP photo.

  
  And you thought such editorializing was left for TIME Magazine.

• Tammy Bruce gives respect to the 2000 soldiers who have died in Iraq, having given their live in defense of freedom everywhere, by offering a sobering comparison of the numbers of Sailors and Marines who made the ultimate sacrifice during World War II. Listing the battles and the totals of those two services dead – noting that in some individual battles had more than 2000 men dead – a total of 51,983 had died.
  
  And that’s only counting Navy and Marines.

• Reality Hammer offers some glimmer of hope, in his post noting that Senators have finally decided to get serious about federal spending. Echoing sentiments made in this humble blog, he goes on to write:

  The Republicans in Congress better be seriously thinking about reviving the Contract With America for 2006 because I know the Democrats are!

  Sage advice, indeed!
