Is Bush a different kind of Republican?
He promises a $1.3 trillion-dollar tax cut, which mostly benefits
the rich.
(Oh, there's a different idea for a Republican.) But in
Texas, we're learning that
Bush has already squandered most of his state's projected surplus,
and can't even
account for where it went. Will he do the same for the federal
government: give
huge tax breaks for the rich, then feign surprise when the projected
surplus never
materializes and the middle-class is left holding the bag for
another Bush deficit?
On the environment, he instituted "voluntary" pollution controls
for corporate
polluters, and made Houston the city with the dirtiest air in
America.
On the minimum wage, he actually favors repealing the
federal minimum wage
altogether, by allowing states to decide for themselves whether
corporations
in their state must obey it.
The truth is, there is nothing Bush is for in the year 2000 that
Herbert
Hoover wasn't for in the 30's, Goldwater wasn't for the in 60's,
and Reagan
wasn't for in the 80's.
Just like all the Republicans, he wants to privatize Social Security,
cut taxes for
the rich, cripple public education while assisting the academies
of the wealthy elite,
restrict environmental protections, roll back the civil rights
gains of affirmative action,
and let special interests run the government.
Wow, that's a different kind of Republican, isn't it?
Has Bush ever disagreed with Rev. Jerry Falwell or the NRA or
with Big Business?
No.

I caught a little Herrendo Revolver last night.
He was talking about The Perfect Storm with some of the

in the movie and some weather experts. One of the weather experts
said that
weather fronts move from West to East because of the rotation
of the earth.
That reminded me of Smirk's assertion that Houston's smog problems
were the fault of Louisiana's smog blowing into Texas.
I gave a gift for you:
If the wind is blowing from West to East,
(for the creation-geography crowd, that's from left to right)
how did the smog blow against the wind to foul up the Texas air?

Brit Hume: America's Most Trusted Journalist
Brit Hume is the most trusted journalist in
America,
according to an online survey of readers of NewsMax.com.
The national survey asked Internet users to vote
for the journalist
who they believe is "the most trusted journalist
in America."
A total of 96,217 users responded to the unscientific
poll that
was conducted between Dec. 26, 1999, and Jan.
7, 2000.
What a fucking joke!
At least you had the decency to admit it was an unscientific poll.
If you were going to ignore science and logic with your poll, why not
just
dismsmber a chicken, then boil the bones, then throw them off the porch
and however the bones land, let that decide who's "most trusted."
Koresh, if only the raw-meat ditto-monkeys at newsmax.com voted,
I'm surprised The Methane Factory didn't end up the champ.
Hume is known for a crisp, matter-of-fact reporting
style that offers
the public a balanced presentation of the news.
The American Journalism
Review honored Hume by naming him "The Best in
the Business."
ha ha
What business would that be?
The Clinton Cock Hunt business?
The only way he could be sonsidered "balanced" is if you consider every
news source in America as hopelessy pro-Clinton, then you Cock Hunters
come along with some hopelessly anti-Clinton balance - is that how
it works?
"He is the best. In Washington there is no better
than Brit Hume,"
said Arnaud de Borchgrave, CEO of United
Press International.
ha ha
Make him stop!
You're saying EVERY reporter at UPI is worse than Brit Hume?
ha ha
Koresh, that's a miracle in itself.
No wonder Helen Thomas quit!
De Borchgrave, a director of NewsMax.com,
added that Hume's reporting style
resonates with Americans because "he comes off
as a straight and honest reporter.
He's not married to any side, conservative or
liberal."
Oh, Koresh!
Do you have any idea what you just said?
Hume is about as unbiased as I am.
Would you say, "BartCop is neither conservative or liberal?"
William Rees-Mogg, former editor of the Times
of London and a
member of NewsMax.com's International Advisory
Board, said
Hume is an internationally respected journalist.
That part could be true.
I'll bet he's loved in North Korea, Afghanistan, Sudan, and Iraq
for attacking "the devil Clinton" while we had troops in the field.
"There is a perception that the major TV networks
in America were
reporting one view, the liberal East Coast
line of thinking," Rees-Mogg said.
"Brit Hume and Fox News give the American people
a diversity of views."
I think that "liberal, East Coast" line of thinking is the educated
viewpoint,
so yes, Fox Whore News often gives the other side.
"NewsMax.com is proud to name such a remarkable
and fair-minded journalist
as Brit Hume as 'The Most Trusted Journalist
in America,'" said Dana Allen,
chairman of NewsMax.com.
You keep repeating "fair and balanced" over and over like a mantra.
Are you trying to make us believe it or yourselves?
Challenge to Rush's DittoHeads:
Can you find an instance on the www where some news organization

And when you can't,

Fucking bingo!
Reagan created modern racism.
Reagan gave the vulgar Pigboy the green light to unveil his racism,

Was Smirk's daddy a racist pig?
Smirk's daddy was slightly less racist than Reagan.
When he got elected, first thing he wanted to do was create a
"kinder, gentler America."
That meant, "Let's ease up on the Nazi hate of the last eight
years," and we all know it.
Was Bob Dole a racist?
Hard to say.
Bob was still trying to figure out what happened to the Brooklyn

...and isn't it funny to watch Pigboy squirm?
All day he was explaining how it was the liberals that were the

Paul Begala Shoots the Bull
George W. Bush read a 15-minute speech to the NAACP convention,
and the fawning national media is treating him like he just marched
across
the Edmund Pettus Bridge with John Lewis and Dr. Martin Luther
King, Jr.
Bush read a platitude-filled speech, including such lines as:
"I am here today because I believe there is much we can do together
to
advance racial harmony and economic opportunity."
Wow.
He quoted Jackie Robinson, Abraham Lincoln, W.E.B. DuBois, "a
writer" and
"a philosopher" (apparently he reads to many he can't keep their
names straight.)
And he came out boldly, courageously and candidly against slavery,
racism and segregation.
And the press fell for it.
The George W. Bush suck-up patrol failed to mention that Bush's
real record on race
falls far short of his cliche-ridden rhetoric. Just three months
ago Bush was speaking at
Bob Jones University. He could have used that occasion, as Alan
Keyes did, to speak the
truth to power; to confront the university's divisive policies,
and to speak out against discrimination.
He did not do so -- an act of political cowardice.
Nor did Bush include in his NAACP speech his tacit approval of
the Confederate flag over the
Carolina capitol building -- another act of weakness in the face
of bigotry.
And somehow Bush's brief speech to the NAACP avoided mentioning
why, of all
the people he could have chosen to lead the training of his state's
police, he chose a man who
said he didn't believe the term "porch monkey" was a racial slur.
Bush somehow failed to explain why, as Governor, he flew from
Minnesota back home to
Texas to comfort the white families of a tragic church shooting
in Fort Worth, but refused to go
to Jasper to comfort the family of a black man who was dragged
to death in a modern-day lynching.

Because of his service to America, I gave
McCain the benefit of the doubt.
But when he turned whore in Carolina I
lost a lot of respect for him.
He later apologized and said he did a bad
thing, but so did Clinton.
Clinton's mistake cost this nation nothing.
McCain's cowardice cost him his integrity

If McCain had looked Carolina in the eye
and said, "Tear down that flag,"
he would've lost Carolina but won in NY,
CA, IL, PA, FL and maybe TX.
I'm with you - I'm no big fan of Gore, but
he's running against a man I could
destroy in a debate, and anybody who can't
out-argue me shouldn't be president.
I'm pro-Gore by default.
Bush is too potentially corrupt to properly
represent the people, and Gore

only because he moderated himself
when he realized that not all conservative
ideas are bad. Gore doesn't
strike me as having the same kind of sense.
Gore has plenty of problems, but "Clinton-spawn" isn't one of them.
I also was wondering about your views on
the United Nations, and the fact
that liberal legislature is pulling us
more and more into an organization
that has openly expressed it's desire to

I wish I knew what that meant.
I don't know that I've ever heard an intelligent

which helps a lot.
There may not be much use for a UN now that
we're the only SP left.
Besides, America is so goddamn arrogant,
if everyone voted against us,
we'd ljust tell them to "fuck off" and

Further answer to Brandon Sutherland's excellent question:
It is true that the Texas Governor does not have a lot of power.
However, he does appoint the members of the Texas Natural Resources
Conservation
Commission, the organization charged with monitoring air and
water quality.
In keeping with his belief that pollution should be left up to
the polluters,
Gov. Dubya has used this power to put the polluters in charge
of enforcement.
Two of the major environment problems are this agriculture and
chemical industries.
Smirk's first appointment was John Baker from the Texas Farm Bureau,
a opponent of all efforts to regulate pesticides.
Next was Ralph Marquez, a lobbyist to the Texas Chemical Council.
Third was the representative from the Religious Right: Barry McBee.
Under the leadership of the Bush appointees water quality and
pesticide monitoring have been virtually abandoned.

Congressional Relatives Receive
'Get Out of Jail Free' Pass
Senator's Son Out on Bail on Marijuana Charge
ARLINGTON, VA -- If you or a relative gets arrested on a drug charge,
don't expect to pass Go or collect $200 -- unless you're the son or
daughter
of a U.S. congressman. Thursday night provided the most recent example
of the Drug War double standard.
According to the Tribune News Service, Robert Lugar, son of Senator
Richard Lugar (R-Roughboy), was arrested for possession of One and
1/4 ounces
of marijuana after a deputy sheriff smelled marijuana smoke when he
stopped
Lugar for a routine traffic violation. Lugar pleaded not guilty to
the drug charge
and was released on $200 bond.
Lugar should count his lucky stars that he's a U.S. senator's son, because
he
already has a 'Get Out of Jail Free' card. If he'd been anyone else's
son,
most likely his car would have been confiscated and he'd be facing
prison.
But being a Senator's son makes you part of the aristocracy.
Just ask the sons of Richard Shelby (R-Racist) or Rod Grams (R-Unknown).
Both have been arrested for drug offenses and received virtually no
punishment.
And the worst part is that all three senators continue to be leading
Drug Warriors.
The drug laws in America suck.

So, if all of those elected officials rank
higher than the governor,
why blame him for Houston's shitty air?
Not a provocation for a fight or anything.
This is a question which I do believe must have a legitimate answer.
Brandon Sutherland
Damn good question, and I'm glad you asked.
The answer is......
Smirk can't have it both ways!
He wants to be president.
His qualifications?
"I'm the governor of the second-biggest state!"
When someone says, "Why don't you stop that execution, Governor?"
he cries and whines and says, "Texas governors have no power!!!"
When someone says, "Why don't you stop that pollution, Governor?"
he cries and whines and says, "Texas governors have no power!!!"
As Smirk's daddy would say, "Na Ga Dah!"
Smirk needs to stand up and admit he's the fifth-most powerful
man in
the second-biggest state and THEN
tell us what his qualifications are.

You remember that old joke - the prostitute says,
"Give me $300 and I'll do anything."
...and the guy gives her $300 and says, "Tramp, paint my house."

Okay, so you admit that JC Watts is black

Then you say that the GOP is an "all-white"

How is this not a contradiction?
Foolcow,
There are 272 Republicans in Congress, one of them is openly black.
That means the GOP is not "all-white" like I said.
It's only 99.621 percent white.

wouldn't you think she'd lay back
a bit on her denunciations of fathers who

All Lew is to her, judging from her on-air

Who's Laura's soulmate?
Who's the most important person in her

Who does she admire most, next to herself?
It sure isn't that old man she lured away
from his wife and three children.
Maybe Procter & Gamble should have

Hoover's Dark Secret Revealed
FBI chief had b l a
c k grandfather!
J Edgar Hoover, the cross-dressing head of the FBI who worked relentlessly
to undermine Martin Luther King and others in the civil rights movement
in
the 1960s, had black ancestors whose existence he desperately tried
to
keep secret, according to a new book.
Millie McGhee, author of Secrets Uncovered, J Edgar Hoover - Passing
For White?
is an African-American who says she was told as a little girl in McComb,
Mississippi,
of her family's links with Hoover.
She writes in the book that her grandfather told of her of this "very
powerful" man in
Washington who was related to the family but did not want the links
to be known and
passed himself off as white.
Ms McGhee, a former teacher in Los Angeles, explains that she contacted
a
genealogist in Salt Lake City, Utah, for help in tracing her family's
history.
She says her research shows that Hoover's grandfather and great-grandfather
lived in
a segregated black area of Washington and were classified in a census
as "coloured".
Relatives were warned of dire consequences if they spoke publicly of
his background.
As a little girl she believed that they would be killed if they mentioned
the secret.
Paul Begala Shoots the Bull
Emerging from the Hall of Failed Presidents, former President
George Bush and
his wife Barbara gave an interview to the New York Times this
weekend that
must have set teeth to grinding at W's campaign HQ in Austin.
The former
President was clueless, the former First Lady bitter. Bush actually
had the
audacity to talk about "restor[ing] honor and integrity"
to the Oval Office.
This from the man who lied to the nation about his role in selling
deadly
weapons to the Ayatollah Khomeini. This from the man who hid
his diary,
which had been requested by the Independent Counsel, for five
years; then
turned it over after he'd been defeated in the 1992 election.
(Yes, I know Bill Clinton lied too, but lying about an illicit
affair with a
younger woman is personal; lying about an illicit affair with
the Ayatollah is
national security.)
Bush senior says "Clinton fatigue" is real. I'll bet it's real
with him. But
as for the rest of the country, President Clinton still has a
much higher job
rating than Ronald Reagan did at this stage of his presidency.
Of course,
Bush never had an eighth year of his presidency, so it's impossible
to
compare. The poor old guy still thinks he was turned out because
of some
cycle of history, forces beyond his control. No, sir, Mr. Former
President,
you were voted out because you were a poor president. Our country
was in a
recession because of the stupid economic policies you and Reagan
gave us, and
you didn't care. People were hurting and you didn't care. Good
folks lost
their jobs, and you didn't care.
But as soon as some oil-rich emir lost his job, it was "Message: I Care."
The last time former President Bush (I still like the sound of
that "former")
reared his head, he helped his "boy" lose the New Hampshire primary
by 19
points. Now he gives an interview to the Times in which he says
his son will
win -- not because of his ideas, not because of qualifications,
but because he
thinks we all hate Bill Clinton as much as he does. About the
only thing he had
to say about his son is that he is "amazed" at W's ascension
in presidential politics.
So am I, Mr. Former President. So am I.
We're all amazed at how a guy who failed in school, failed in
business and traded
Sammy Sosa has conned a once-great political party into nominating
him for the
highest office in the land.
Prediction: W's handlers are so embarrassed by the Former
President
they'll refuse to allow him to speak at the convention. And W,
placing
political ambition ahead of family loyalty, will agree to muzzle
the old man.
I was curious about the markets one day and decided
to explore Yahoo! Finance
concerning an unrelated matter. I stumbled upon
a feature buried within the site
which allows you to not only view historical
stock and market data but also
download rather large files of spreadsheet-ready
data.
In this case I downloaded the complete historical data of the Dow Jones Stock Index.
With Quattro Pro in hand I plugged in nearly twenty-four
YEARS of data
(mainly for future reference.) Pursuing a hunch
I correlated the data from
inauguration to inauguration in four-year periods
starting with the Carter years up
to the present day of the Clinton administration.
What I was looking for was the
market growth (or, in the case of Carter, loss)
in correlation with these Presidencies.
The numbers themselves sounded interesting but
what good is looking at a boring
spreadsheet full of 'em? Using the graphing function
I plotted each four-year data
set and overlaid them over each other for comparison.
At a glance everyone can see
what that twenty-four years' worth of data looks
like.
As for the date of the presidential inauguration
I start each four-year presidency at zero.
The previous date of market activity is used
as the baseline and this is subtracted from
the current market point level. What results
is the amount of CHANGE which I use
as a standard for comparison.
To put it bluntly for the skeptics out there are
no tricks or "creation math" here.
This is all based completely upon simple math
and data which you may verify at
http://finance.yahoo.com
if you're willing to dig for it. For those who are into
quoting "supply-siders" and Republicans in general
as the Gospel then this
visual representation proves that they're wrong.
Period.

I saw a news report over the weekend that AIDS patients are doing
so well,
and medical science is making such strides, that people are paying
less attention.
As a result, the decline in new AIDS cases is beginning to level
off.
I remember hearing Magic Johnson was HIV-positive.
That was in what, 1992?
The last I heard about Magic's health, the number of cells that
tells you that you
have AIDS was so low, he was statistically in the "doesn't have
it" category.
That reminds me of two sons-of-bitches, Reagan and the vulgar
Pigboy.
I remember when Reagan's budgets and Pigboy's smart mouth told
people
it "wasn't worth" spending money on AIDS research because it
was a virus
instead of a disease and therefore could never be cured, so why
fucking bother?
What they really meant was, "It's only queers dying, so why should we care?"
Fuck Reagan for his blind "who cares?" attitude,
and fuck Pigboy and Laura the Martyr for making millions by feeding
that hate.
Pigboy is still claiming his sainted daddy wrote that discredited
"Signers" piece,
and now it looks like our old friend Jeff Jacoby (see Vol
61 and Vol 65)
stole it and passed it off as his story.
The Boston Globe suspended him for being a lying, stealing handjob - way to go, Jeff.

Subject: Smog over Houston
Bartcop,
After viewing your many pictures of lovely downtown
Houston, it brought back a song.
Sung to Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple:
Bush became a governor
He said he wanted clean air
But when it came to regulations
Didn’t want companies to share
With cleaning up the smokestacks
Wants voluntary enforcement
Won’t force them into clean up
As long as dollars are sent
Smog over Houston,
it’s very hard to breathe
Smog over Houston
With self regulation
The businesses went to town
They keep filling Bush’s coffers
They know he won’t let them down
Now they ring up their profits
And laugh in the people’s face
Bush thinks he can snow them over
During this presidential race
Smog over Houston,
it’s very hard to breathe
Smog over Houston
Now they find it hard to breathe
Another pollution alarm
Bush thinks the companies
Don’t want anyone to be harmed
Now that Houston passes LA
As the most polluted yet
Hopefully people in this country
Give Bush a lesson he won’t soon forget
Smog over Houston,
it’s very hard to breathe
Smog over Houston

Great Clinton-hating Quotes
Trust me, nobody knows less about the Middle-east than
me,
but here's the way I understand it: At the end of September,
Arafat
will cave to pressure and declare a Palestinian state in Israel.
The only thing that can stop this is a new peace accord.
Israel is tired of the rocket attacks and the bus bombs.
They want a deal.
Arafat is getting old, very old, and this could be his last chance.
He wants a deal.
Clinton will be out of office in 6 months, and a deal is more
likely
with him than with Gore, or, Koresh forbid, He Who Smirks.
Clinton wants a deal.
So, all three sides want a deal, so they're giving it a shot.
This is a right-winger's dream.
If an agreement is not reached, the GOP can scream, "failure"
at the top of their lungs instead of giving Clinton the credit
for trying.
And if they somehow reach an agreement, they'll just say it was
Reagan's doing.
Watching McLaughlin this weekend, John asked that Clinton-hater
Lawrence Kudlow his opinion of the upcoming peace talks:
"Clinton's ego run amok."
Doesn't it figure?
Those Republican bastards would rather the peace talks fail
than see President Clinton get any credit for helping it along.

FRANK KEATING: HOMICIDE, LIFE ON THE STREET
Frank, Frank, Frank. You just want to pinch yourself. You see
Frank's in the
mix for a Vice-presidential nomination. Calling all cokebouys.
Heavy sigh,
Frank we hardly knew ye. Frank is our governor here in Oklahoma
where it is
legal to kill cocks, but not to tattoo one. Every month there
is some scandal or
Frank goes wild and says something terrible about a segment of
Oklahoma society.
Last February, Frank, speaking to 350 students at Oral Roberts
University,
sez the way to deal with the teacher's union was, "Homicide!"
I wish I could
blame a speechwriter. Someone else at least! If
a student said that in an
Oklahoma school, they would probably be arrested and most likely
expelled!
You know who I do blame?
I blame Mrs. Frank.
I know this is a family page, but I have to say it. Frank is just
not getting enough.
I'm sorry.
If Mrs.Frank were doing her job better as a........well Frank
might not be so testy.
At the very least a little help for Frank's prostate health.
My Ol' doc, Al Bendover, told me along time ago, "Use it or lose
it."
Studies have shown, well, you know what they show.
Mrs. Frank wants to be out of Oklahoma anyway,
she's an old Washington Highlife woman.
You know, one friend keeping another cold.
Frank's and Oral's Jesus is better than your Jesus. If you are
a "godless"
liberal or an immoral, rabbit breeding minority, damnation is
your call.
Frank and Oral say if you open your checkbook to them....err,
Jesus, then
Jesus will open his checkbook upon thee and you will have "deserved"
wealth
and prosperity and live in the Christian Kingdom of small guvmint.
"Say it aint so Brain Smasher," you say.
"Yes, grasshopper, it's true."
Regardless of how you feel about unions, teachers, or humanity
in general,
the class of students at Oral Roberts University that would give
you a rousing cheer
when you proclaim that "Homicide" is the way to deal with the
teacher's union is at
the very least, unsettling.
Hey ORU, WWJD?
My sources tell me when Tim McVeigh heard about Frank's speech,
he wanted to high-five the governor.
When an ORU student becomes the next McVeigh at the Governor's
bequest,
at least we can all be comforted by the fact when 200-300 people
are killed by them,
no unborn children will be involved.

He backed out of a deal to make that horrid "Dieter" movie

This tour is only the second time since 1980 that Jimmy Page
has
been free to play the "real" songs that he's written, since Robert
Plant
has chosen to go mostly accoustic. With the Crowes behind him,
he's been playing the big songs. Maybe we'll get lucky
tomorrow night.
If we get real lucky,
maybe he'll play something on the doubleneck or the Dan Electro.
Lets make a deal
Two independent Cookeville filmmakers, Rick Martin and Donald Farmer,
appeared at the Mayberry's house (before the GOP moved them out)
with a hand-printed contract for a movie about their toilets.
(Yum! I'll be first in line!)
The deal gives the Mayberrys 20 percent of the movie's net
revenue in exchange
for the rights to tell the family's story of terrible toilets and Gore’s
eviction notice.
The movie is set to air in October, hoping to embarrass Gore, who was
too stupid
to take BartCop's advice and move the tree-climbers out.
The Mayberrys even posed for a movie poster on their front porch with rifles in their hands.
I realize these missing links don't have any brains,
but signing a contract for a percentage of the net?
Even movies that make over $100,000,000 don't have "net" profits.
They won't be able to buy any bacon with the movie money.
Serves 'em right.
In 1992, Smirk's daddy refused to speak to the NAACP.
In 1996, Bob Dole refused to speak to the NAACP.

Geico Pulls Ads From 'Laura the Martyr' Program
Auto insurer Geico has
decided to stop running its ads on She-Thing's radio
program, the latest corporate fallout from the
talk show host's much-publicized
comments on gays. The Washington-based company
said it has received a great
deal of feedback, mostly negative, about its
advertising on the program.
Much of that negative
response has come from those in the gay community
who said they found the remarks made by the host
"highly offensive and prejudicial."
An assistant to Rabbi Schlessinger declined to
comment, and a spokeswoman for her
show could not be reached immediately. Schlessinger
has angered gay rights groups
with her comments that homosexuality is "deviant"
behavior and a "biological error."
Earlier this year, Procter & Gamble pulled
its ads both from the current talk show
and her upcoming television talk show this fall.
But why does the vulgar Pigboy get a free ride?
He hates gays more than Laura the Unloved, and he openly laughs and
ridicules them,
wheras Laura dismisses gays with an aura of civility.
Is Laura seen as some kind of civilian, with a chance to be rehabilitated?
Someone clear that up for me, please.
The Nader people will eventually come to Gore,
