Breaking News, Lisbon Portugal

The 97 year-old mother of John McCain was rushed to a hospital after she suffered injuries from a fall. Apparently, she was sightseeing, slipped or lost balance and was found lying on the pavement.

She is probably ok with no serious injuries but will remain hospitalized. We all wish her well.

Save them from the wrath of the "Decider".

Three years on, Guantánamo detainee, 78, goes home.

Hero's welcome for ex-Mujahideen commander with failing eyesight and a walking frame.

It's hard to picture Haji Nasrat Khan as an international terrorist. For a start, the grey-bearded Afghan can barely walk, shuffling along on a three-wheeled walking frame. His sight is terrible - he squints through milky eyes that sometimes roll towards the heavens - while his helpers have to shout to make themselves heard. And as for his age - nobody knows for sure, not even Nasrat himself. "I think I am 78, or maybe 79," he ventures uncertainly, pausing over a cup of green tea.

This is my first try at this so I beg of you to read with patience and forgive me if the quality of my writing is not up to par with the wonderful stuff posted here. English is currently a language I rarely use, be it for everyday conversations or expressing complicated thoughts.

There is a good reason why I decided to post a diary for the first time. Feb 16, 2003 was the day I was infected with the DKos "bug". Two years is a long time -in the internets reality- and it feels like some sort of aniversary!

This coming Sunday, Feb 20, Portugal will hold Parliamentary elections. To many, it may seem like a subject of little importance since Portugal is not what we might call a military or political power. That said, it is far from being irrelevant. But, since this is just an informative post and not an opinion piece, I will not debate it.

more after the break..... I will keep it as simple as possible. Read More
