4. Teens have a cell phone ring tone that adults can't hear. Doesn't the vibrate setting make this unecessary? AP.

3. If you're like me, you have been wondering why the left is more upset over Zarqawi's death, particularly whether or not he was beaten to death by U.S. forces, than any of the civilian beheadings ordered by Zarqawi. Do you still think Democrats / liberals / socialists are on our side in the war on terror? AP.

2. Tropical storm Alberto, who is rumored to be an illegal alien up from Ole Mexico, is prompting mass evacuations in Florida. Hey, Floridians, we don't want to hear about it any more. You chose to live there, and you can be quiet about it. AP.

1. Liberals are calling for the closure of GTMO over the three recent suicides. Are they calling for all U.S. prisons to be closed? Suicides are not uncommon in prisons. This headline at Huffington Post speaks volumes: "At Gitmo: Death Before Dishonor." These pukes are on the side of the terrorists. There's no other conclusion to be made. Reuters.
