...realize the signs of consumption, and even though it has been erradicated one cannot be too careful. There is nothing like a mandated stay in a Swiss sanitorium to ruin one’s presidential ambitions.Reccomendation: Buy a flannel waist coat.Mitt RomneyMitt Romney, on the other hand, is really tan.

Some connect to nothingness, sitting at odd angles, left littering the highways, neighborhood streets and alleyways, forgotten pieces of drab, tan cityscape. Except for the helicopters thumping just above the low skyline, views in Baghdad are therefore always partly obscured...
