A cancer patient reacts in a hospital for oncological diseases in the Ukrainian city of Donetsk April 25, 2006. Large amounts of radioactive fallout came down on the regions around the Chernobyl nuclear power plant after the explosion of its fourth reactor in 1986, leading to a substantial increase of radiation-inflicted diseases in the population. Ukraine this week marks the 20th anniversary of the world's worst civil nuclear disaster.

    Well, there is THIS: Now when the President gives the ol' glad-hand or verbal pat on the back to his new Press Secretary, without so much as a trace of irony (WHICH I'M NOT SURE DUBYA KNOWS THE MEANING OF ANYWAY), he can say, "Heckuva snow job, Tony. "

    Maybe with any luck, Tony can talk with the DEE-cider about his annoying habit of hyperarticulation. Yeah, I know that somehow doesn't exactly ring true to most of you out there. But, the term doesn't mean the President, or Scott McClelland, who mysteriously shared this affliction -- is extraordinarily articulate.

    It refers to the way the two men pronounce the words THE and A. Both men always use a long E, as in BEE, when pronouncing THE. Same holds true for A. It's always pronounced with a long A, as in HATE.

    As in, I HATE when they do that. And I'd really be interested to learn WHY they do. It makes the President appear ignorant (CAN YOU IMAGINE?). I mean, a lot of people have trouble pronouncing nuclear correctly. But 'nuke-you-lar' is at least polysyllabic, for God's sake.

    I HAVE WATCHED TONY SNOW FOR YEARS. HE IS AN INDEPENDANT THINKER. THE LIBERAL PRESS INCLUDING AOL ARE POINTING OUT A FEW CONFLICTS TONY HAS WITH PRESIDENT BUSH. THAT IS PATHETIC. HE IS A FAIR AND HONEST REPORTER. WOULD THE LIBERAL PRESS HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY? YES THEY WOULD, AS THEY DISTORT THE NEW EVERYDAY TO SUPPORT THEIR LIBERAL BIAS.

    In Plato's Republic it was declared a virtue to volunteer to be a leader, so "the Decider" is anyone who leads and volunteers to lead, and this is virtue.  I have seen this where you can stand in a formation of two hundred men and only two men volunteer to lead and take leadership roles.  We all need leadership due to the volume of hecklers and people who just stand back, so "the Decider" is the leader with virtue.  Be sure to vote, because that is also your chance to be "the Decider."
