The Bonobo chimps at the Great Ape Trust in Iowa have exciting new visitors. 2 trumpeter swans have moved onto their 30 acre lake and created a sensation with the chimps.
These apes have such exceptional language skills that they have been told that they can come up with names for their new friends . They communicate on blackboards with their researchers. They can differentiate colour and sex. The apes have already asked which is the male and female swan and the male swan now has a new black neck band to identify him more easily for them.
Clearly, this story needs follow up as information becomes available.
Clearly, it's great to know that worthwhile scientific endeavours are on going even in Iowa, while the rest of the main stream media concerns itself with total bullshit.
This loser claims that he can stroll safely through a Baghdad market, hoping that no one notices the 100 troops accompanying him, along with the black hawks, snipers, vests, etc. etc.
This is not intelligence, unlike our ape friends. Everyone already knows it's not safe to walk through a Baghdad market but there is no limit to how stupid the GOP thinks many Americans are.
They didn't even allow Iraqi troops along with McCain. They don't even trust them around high profile Americans.
It costs $3500-$5000 U.S. to take a one way taxi ride from the Baghdad airport to downtown Baghdad for U.S. journalists. Obviously not safe there too. It's not safe anywhere.
Who knows what affect the surge is having. We do know that Iraq can not be permanently occupied or defeated so there is no point in trying to win something there. But McCain wants to be the next war president.
He could learn much from the bonobos who have far more interesting, intelligent and peaceful lives.

You know why they don't trust the Iraqi troops -- it's partly because of their skills, but also because the army has been infiltrated with insurgents who'd just love to get a high profile american senator as a notch in their AK47s.
