Well, for a sore throat...
When I was in Primary School (that's a long time ago...) I have a teacher who told us that one of her student's grandma has a wierd cure for sore throat, but it seriously works like a miracle... Here it is, to cure a sore throat:
Take a can of Coca-cola, empty the contents into a pot, and boil the liquid. And drink it down when it's still hot.
I tried it before... it wouldn't cure you immediately, but you'll feel better. (um, I'm not advertising for Coca-cola here... )
The only link I can find about this takes me from the NBC Today Show to Rush
Limbaugh. I don't know who wrote the article, but I like most of it.
===========================
"Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, fresh from her own trip to Iraq, accused
President Bush yesterday of conducting the war by a political calendar,
saying he had dispatched the wrong mix of troops to secure the country and
that victory is not certain. In an interview on The Today Show yesterday,"
portions of which we played, "Hillary said that her war zone visit last
weekend with not only the military but civilian American representatives
revealed that, 'clearly what we're doing now is not an effective strategy.
Success at rebuilding Iraq,' she said, 'can only come with the involvement
of the United Nations, which has been reluctant to aid U.S. efforts.'"
Don't forget the story we had earlier: 108 Member Nations of the United
Nations Declined to Pursue Terrorists! Right here, folks, for those of you
watching. That's it, that I'm holding up so you can read right there, 108
nations, member nations, UN, declined to pursue terrorists, and here's
Hillary along with Howard Dean suggesting that we can only win this if we
involve this bumbling bunch of Inspector Clouseaus to help us out.
So, my friends, I want to play a little game here. We're going to go back in
time, and I want to construct a scenario for you. I want you to imagine that
the year is 1943 and that we were attacked nearly two years before at Pearl
Harbor, December 7th, 1941. That's two years after Pearl Harbor, I want you
to just picture yourself, put yourself there. Our military forces are spread
throughout the world. We either fought or are fighting the
enemy among other places the Pacific theater, North Africa, Europe, and
Southeast Asia. We're fighting on tiny islands and taking huge casualties.
We're fighting in jungles and mountain ranges, again taking huge casualties.
And along the way we are winning, we are liberating one nation after
another, along with millions of people. And then amidst all of this, imagine
that there is a left-wing senator from New York. She's never supported the
military in her long public career, she has never showed an interest in
military needs in her long public career, she was part of an administration
that in fact severely reduced and undermined our military force structure,
including personnel levels, weapons systems, and armaments, and that same
administration largely ignored the growing national security threat posed by
the enemy, despite numerous attacks on Americans both here and abroad.
Now, we're still in 1943 and just imagine in essence that Hillary Clinton
surfaces two years after Pearl Harbor. Now that pacifist, anti-war liberal
senator, only two years after the attack on Pearl Harbor uses her position
as a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee to travel to certain
theaters of combat over the Thanksgiving holiday, not to bolster our troops,
but to criticize their commander-in-chief. Imagine had this happened in
1943. She questions the war's progress, she questions the adequacy of our
troop levels and even the wisdom of parts of their mission.
She questions why we haven't already captured or killed Adolf Hitler or Tojo
and she does all of this on foreign soil while our troops are taking
casualties. This senator's behavior is even worse than Neville Chamberlain's
peace-in-our-time proclamation. At least Chamberlain, once he realized he
had been deceived by Hitler, became an ardent supporter of the allied war
effort. But not so with this senator. Having been a power behind an
administration that appeased terrorists and undermined our military, this
senator now seeks to exploit the difficulties of war and occupation as a
springboard to her own presidency. Yes, my friends, the senator I speak of
is Hillary Clinton. Imagine her pulling this two years after Pearl Harbor.
The behavior I speak of is Hillary's during her recent trips to Afghanistan
and Iraq. And yesterday, when she returned from her so-called fact finding
trip, she was greeted as an important voice by the likes of Katie Couric and
the others in the mainstream media.
You know, times have really changed. It wouldn't have occurred to a
Republican senator in 1943 to try to exploit the war effort 60 years ago in
hopes of making political gains against FDR, at the expense of our war
effort around the world. Imagine the morale boost the enemy in Berlin and
Tokyo and elsewhere would have received back then if a leading political
figure and future presidential hopeful had acted as Hillary has acted today.
Imagine the propaganda value such a visit would have had on these regimes,
and imagine how demoralizing it would have been to the men and women on the
front lines. We are at war today every bit as much as we were at war in
World War II. We are a much more prosperous nation today, and so we don't
all have to sacrifice, we don't all have to give away things to the effort,
we don't have to undergo and endure rationing, because we're a much more
prosperous nation today. So many of us are allowed to go on about our lives
and treat this war as some minor little skirmish in caves and mountains and
deserts somewhere in the Middle East. Except Mrs. Clinton. Mrs. Clinton
knows what's at stake here. We are at war every bit as much as we were at
war in World War II. We are fighting for the survival of our way of life,
and the enemy has the potential of secretly invading our country not with
armies but with a handful of wacko fanatics who have the ability of
acquiring weapons that can kill tens of millions of people in just, snap, a
second.
More Americans died on September 11th than died at Pearl Harbor. We are at
war. We're fighting this war all over the place on many fronts. We cannot
wait for the enemy to lift his head in order to fight back. We have to take
this war to the enemy. And when Hillary Clinton uses her public position to
do what she's done, it needs to be highlighted and exposed for what it is.
While less blatant, Hillary Clinton's behavior is really no less damaging
than Jane Fonda's during the Vietnam War, but there is a big difference. At
least Jane Fonda was a private citizen, a mere actress. Hillary Clinton is a
senator on the Armed Services Committee, undermining our war effort.

Fucking Jane Fonda......................................(traitor)................
FM 100.7 (A local radio station) was doing one of their "is anyone listening" bits this morning. The first one was, "Ever have a celebrity pull the 'Do you know who I am' routine?"
A woman called in and said that a few years back, while visiting her cattle rancher uncle in Billings, MT., they had occasion to go to dinner at a restaurant that does not take reservations. The wait was about 45 minutes. Lots of other rancher types and their spouses were already waiting.
In comes Ted Turner and Jane Fonda. They want a table. The hostess says they'll have to wait about 45 minutes. Jane Fonda asks the hostess if she knows who she is. "Yes, but you'll still have to wait 45 minutes. " Then Jane says, "Is the manager in?" The manager comes out, "May I help you?" "Do you know who I am?" ask both Jane and Ted. "Yes, but these folks have all been waiting already and I can't put you in ahead of them." Then Ted asks to speak to the owner. The owner comes out. Jane again asks, "Do you know who I am?"
The owner says, "Yes, I do. Do you know who I am? I am the owner of this restaurant and a Vietnam Veteran. Not only will you not get a table ahead of all of my friends and neighbors here, but you also will not be eating in my restaurant tonight or any other night. Good bye."
Only in America, what a great country!
We never forget the unprosecuted traitor! (Jane Fonda)
