Subject: Bush's vacation
Perhaps our president has a formula, or maybe
it's just superstition. As you may recall, he took
the month of August off last year when it appeared
that the honeymoon was over. He returned to
work tan and rested, and by the end of September
his approval rating had shot through the roof.
Now that his rating are starting to drop again, why not stick with a proven method?
NekedBob
Bob, it's too bad we don't have a free press in this country.
The idiot is repeating the mistakes that allowed 9-11 to happen, and
nobody - not even
a Democrat has the balls to question ANOTHER vacation by President
Lazy Ass.
If Al Qaeda attacks again while Bush is talking to cows, the Democrats
and the press
will sit back and wait for MWO, Buzzflash and bartcop.com
to call him on it.
Call screeners flub, Rush looks extra stupid
Wednesday, second hour, Rush was whining about California, run
by liberals,
imposed a whopping five percent tax on cable tv bills. Rush pulled
his regular
"Liberals are always screwing up everything" horseshit, blaming
Grey Davis.
...but then, a caller slipped thru.
"But Rush, here in Florida, Jeb signed a thirteen percent tax on cable."
What was the response from the greatest debater in GOP history?
"Jeb must've signed that under extreme pressure."
ha ha
After the truth molester went waaaaaaaaaaay out on a limb about
the evil democrats and their 5
percent tax, turns out his boy Jeb
more than doubled Davis with a 13
percent tax of his own.
All the vulgar Pigboy could do was sputter, so the call screener
was tied to a tree and whipped.
The sunshine of truth can NEVER interrupt Rush when he's
spewing his lies..

DK,
ha ha
I can't even imagine what it's like.
Most of the military loves the AWOL rich boy who bought
his way out of Vietnam,
and they hate the president who wanted fewer names on
the Vietnam Memorial Wall,
the president who never sent a man into battle who didn't
come home.
Salute to your service, DK!
...speaking of salutes...
Remmeber how many dozens/hundred of times the Rush/Fox whores
screamed at Clinton
for not returning a salute "properly" enough to suit their tastes?
Now we have this monkey trying to salute?.
Boy, if I had a TV show, (and a staff and some resources) we could
run
this picture with the archives audio of the right-wingers complaing
about
Clinton's salute not being "proper" enough for them.
...and now this Unelected donkey salutes with a schnauzer?
I
can't take it anymore!

close that down now too. As long as industry doesn't have $$

my bank account is flat, I've got just

I can't even afford school supplies for
my kids this year - school supplies! Food? Yeah, mac and cheese,
peanut butter on day old or thrift store

No vacation this summer or anytime soon.

Subject: CNN reports possibility of US attacking holy sites in Saudi Arabia
A CNN reporter, (Moneyline 8/6/02?) reported he
had copies of the slide presentation
by the Rand corp member. One option included
was to attack holy sites in Saudi Arabia.
MECCA is in Saudi Arabia. Could this be what
they REALLY want to destroy?
EWG
Hey, call me a hawk, but I like the idea.
We tell those Saudis that if we have another terror attack, so will
they.
If they want to lose Medina and Mecca, send Al Qaeda right over,
but we'll be nice about it and give them two hours to evacuate the
area.
When there's another terrorist attack, we destroy their holy shrines
and
the Saudi Royal Palace, and ask them if they want more.
We're either at war with these bastards or we're playing patty cake with them.
In typical fashion, the GOP is ready for war but the Democrats want to play patty cake.

Quotes
"Bush hasn't called me or anything. Isn't that
amazing?
You know, I don't think any of us have
been invited to
the White House for making this happen.
What an ingrate
this guy is. This is the last time we
help him."
"The American public knows that the person
who actually won
the election is Al Gore. He got the
most votes. Florida was stolen
by Bush and his cronies. Everybody knows
that. Bush will get his
comeuppance in November and in two years
from now."
--Michael Moore, Crossfire, pretending his
Nader attack didn't matter
Hey Mike, I didn't hear you promise to help the GOOD guys this
time.
Does that mean you're on the Bush/Cheney team again in 2004?
"When Democrats start acting like Republicans,
they're going to lose
their seats, thanks to the Greens and
the Independents out there."
--Michael Moore, Crossfire, minutes
later...
Michael Moore - Bush supporter
So - I was right.
Moore is doing helping Bush/Cheney and screw Democrats.
I don't see him threatening the GOP, only the Democrats.
By pretending he's for the little guy, he's helping Bush loot the treasury
Thanks, Mike.
Subject: monkey mail
Bart, do you purposely choose the most idiotic
letters from the Freep-wads?
They can't all be that freakin' stupid in general,
can they?
You're not pulling a "Politically Incorrect"
by only featuring
the most moronic Ditto-monkeys possible are you?
DanInBoulder
Dan, the opposite is true.
For years, I've offered a free column to any Republican who would answer
questions,
address issues and speak for the Rush, Colter, Bush, Reagan point of
view.
I guarantee there is nobody on the Internet who will take questions
from me, with follow-ups..
If they do, that means they agree with my positions.
I'll even bet on it.
Show me a GOP site that gets at least 10K hits a day, where you can
get into some give-and-take
with the webmaster. I say that site doesn't exist. Oh, sure, you might
find a site that will allow
posts to be listed, but I want someone who will get into it and answer
my questions.
If we can do it, why can't they?
Because we have the truth and they are lying for ditto-dollars.

Subject: "trifecta" a joke for sociopaths
Paul Krugman's recent editorial gave us a needed
reminder of Bush's "trifecta" joke.
Bush tells this joke to Republicans and they
LAUGH!
One of the worst things to happen to the U.S.
in the last 60 years and they are laughing!
The gentle satirist Kurt Vonnegut in his book
"Hocus
Pocus" says that people who can
laugh at such awful tragedies are sociopaths.
We are being led by sociopaths - big surprise!
Also in the same above mentioned book, Vonnegut
defines capitalism as "what the
people with all our money, drunk or sober, sane
or insane, decided to do today."
I think that explains the situation pretty well.
ranney
ranney, good point.
I'd like to think the "decent" republicans wouldn't laugh as loud,
but why don't they quietly ask Bush to knock it the fuck off?
Subject: Don't you thank your Bart donor$ ?
I go out of my way to mail you a $10 bill
to your PO box in Tulsa a month ago,
and you don't even acknowledge it with
a curt thank you to this address.
How busy are you, anyway?
I appreciate the donation, but on my best days, I'm not very efficient.
I try to answer everything that comes in, but sometimes I fail.
It's not because I'm making too much money.
I'm still making way less than minimum wage from my "hobby."
Sure, it wasn't a lot, but it was more than
an Amazon nickle,
and you could get a pack or two of free
smokes out of it.
If you get hundreds of dollars per week
from readers,
then I can understand the no reply.
I guess I'm just naive.
CE
CE, did you include your name and address or e-mail on the check?
I sometimes get checks with no name or address on them, even
when they're
ordering a JulieFest video or a ticket to BartFest. But
it's possible that I just forgot.
Being dim-witted, I have a system. I don't put anything in the
bank that hasn't been handled.
I get mail asking, "Why haven't you
cashed my check?" and it's because things take time.
I mentioned on yesterday's page that I called five contributors/subscribers
last night.
It's always a good idea to include your e-mail address and phone
number when you write.
My priority has to be getting a new issue up each day. It would
be bad all around if
I didn't have time for an issue because I was looking for some
paper, and an envelope,
and a stamp and a mail box. I am very appreciative for
all contributions, but it's much
easier for me to send an e-mail or make a phone call.
My apologies for the omission.
Know of any good bits or issues that need a repeat?

Subject: wag-the-dog war
Yesterday, as Bush goes off
for yet another vacation, CNN asked viewers
to "vote" on whether he was spending enough time
in Washington, especially
since we are at war. The question is too
complex for a simple yes or no.
If Bush were a decent leader, he should be on
the job more, but under the
circumstances, he should just stay out of the
White House.
My hubby assessed it well:
"Bush is like the bulldog on the Mack truck:
he looks like he's leading, but he's really being
pushed."
Yes, by a big, ugly machine
of corporate greed, big money and military
hubris. Besides, he has Dick Cheney and
his shadow government, even more
un-elected than he was, to run things.
Doesn't that give you a warm fuzzy
feeling as we're being rushed into yet another
wag-the-dog war?
