Here’s some President Bush and his officials gave 935 false statements preceding the war in Iraq, according to a study by two non-profit journalism organizations. The war on terrorism must be extremely hard to fight when our own commander-in-chief can’t be honest with his own country. I feel like one of the Lost survivors, and Bush is less skilled, less personable Jack, who picks and chooses when to tell the truth so much that he ends up lying to folks 50% of the time.

Speaking of Lost, my girlfriend and I just finished watching the 3rd season last night. The last episodes provided more questions than answers, so I really hope this last episode set to air on January 31st is a thorough one. From what I can tell, reading the ABC website, and drawing my own conclusions, is that this last episode should close a few doors, but leave plenty open much like your typical “Spiderman” movie.

And on the same token with TV shows, HBO’s The Wire is on its last season, this time focusing on the media and how they portray the various action surrounding the city. Those of us who have OnDemand are lucky enough to have the next week’s episode a week early. That has to be the lone reason I remain a Comcast customer. Otherwise, I would be all about DirecTV until Verizon Fios comes to my city and I become a groupie of that.

If you haven’t caught to watching HBO’s The Wire, you are missing out.

The show addresses social issues surrounding the city of Baltimore. Good guys and bad guys are shown from varying perspectives — drug dealers, city police, politicians — and you often find yourself rooting for the “good” bad guy.
