"Exciting news for Ann Coulter fans: Her editor
at Crown Publishers says that they are in
deep consultation with the wacky winger
about correcting at least one atrocious slander in her
bestselling book of that title. This
could be the beginning of a heavy workload for the Crown
clean-up crew, assuming that they sincerely
intend to amend Coulter's text to reflect facts rather
than prejudices. Will somebody
please give Pepper a Nexis subscription and a shovel?"
--Joe Conason, Joe Conason's Journal, Stop the Presses, 08/06/02
If the White House is empty, it must be August
Excerpt:
After bringing America to the brink of
economic collapse and hammering out the framework
of his permanent police state, George W.
Bush is taking August off for vacation. The rest of us
who have to work for a living can expect
absurd photo ops to abound (e.g., Bush is the only
person in Texas who chops wood in the middle
of August). While Bush putters about on his ranch
in his golf cart, dressed in silly cowboy
duds, the nation should take a collective sigh of relief.
With presidents like this, who needs enemies?
The Clinton Miracle
Rush spent the first hour Thursday saying the "Clinton Miracle"
was nothing more
than a fraud, built on cooking the federal books and he should
be ashamed of himself.
This comes after eight years of Rush guaranteeing
us that the "Clinton Miracle"
was actually the genius of Ronald Reagan and supply-cide economics,
and if not that,
all credit should go to the House of Newt.
Pigboy, why do you hop from untrue slur to untrue slur?
Wouldn't your odds be better if you stuck with just one side
of a slur?
It would be so much fun to get Rush in the witness chair, with
a fair and impartial judge
who would force Rush to respond to simple questions - yes or
no.
I'd have him broken and sobbing in under six minutes.

Subject: Bart got somebody fired! Can you guys do anything?
http://www.laweekly.com/ink/02/38/news-angel.php
Ouch, Bart is indirectly responsible for
this LA Times staffer getting fired!
Do something guys!
"BRIAN ROBIN LIKES TO PERUSE THE HILARIOUSLY
irreverent,
progressive Web site Bartcop.com. One Sunday
night in July, in the privacy of his
Lancaster home, Robin came upon an item
about an appearance by Congressman
Bill Thomas (R-Bakersfield) on CNN, where
he repeated the Republican Party
mantra that blames the year's corporate
criminality on Bill Clinton.
Robin couldn't let Thomas, a career politician
who wields great power as chairman
of the House Ways and Means Committee,
get away with it. Robin put together an
e-mail, with the opening salvo "Surely
you can't be that stupid," and went on to
compare Clinton's achievements to Bush's
and Cheney's various business failures
and wrongdoings. Along the way, he took
a swipe at Thomas himself: "I'm not a
morally bankrupt Republican congressman
who opts for partisanship ahead of truth."
Jim Kelly
Jim, ...take a deep breath.
I'm willing to help if I can, but the way I see things, Robin
wrote a harmless e-mail that
caused that prick Bill Thomas to get him fired. I had nothing
to do with it.
In Volume 859 - Gonna Raise Hell, Robin's wife wrote:
> Last week my husband was fired from his job
as a reporter with the Los Angeles Times.
> He had sent an e-mail to Rep. Bill Thomas (R-Bakersfield/Kern
County) taking issue with
> some comments made by Congressman Thomas on
a CNN program.
That's not the same as "Bart got him
fired."
I don't think CNN got him fired, either. I think Bill Thomas
is a heartless caveman who "got even"
with someone who never did him any harm and the LA Times was
petty enough to fire him.
OK, you can exhale now...
Why we must invade Iraq RIGHT NOW!
Live
and Let Die*
by Isaac Peterson
Excerpt:
Someone who had heard about the Supreme
Court's last two decisions about the death penalty
might think we had a new Supreme Court..
A few weeks ago, they said we can't execute mentally
retarded people, and then that jury had
to decide whether someone should be executed, not a judge.
It should have been plain old common sense.
But three Extreme Court 'justices' disagreed with the decision.
If you've been paying attention, I don't
need to name the three. (If you haven't been paying attention, it was
Scalia, Thomas, and Rehnquist. Don't these
guys like anything that doesn't hurt somebody else?).
Sidebar: My good friend Isaac is coming to BartFest
in Las Vegas. Like all of us, he's looking
forward to meeting and partying with the people he's gotten to know thru
e-mails and chats.
George W Bush's
Scorecard
of Evil
Excerpt:
President Bush took a sharp right turn
in policy soon after his inauguration, surprising a country
that heard a carefully crafted message
of moderate governance during the campaign. He's picked
some strange battles early in his administration,
prompting an outcry from everyone ranging from
liberal Democrats to moderate Republicans.
It's getting harder every day to remember all of the
truly mystifying policies the Bush administration
is pursuing, so the Wage Slave Journal offers this
scorecard to help you keep track of all
of the evil deeds Bush commits and, more important,
to provide a record for your perusal when
November 2004 rolls around.
Quotes
"President Bush passed his yearly physical
with flying colors yesterday.
And he is very proud – it's not
often he passes an exam."
--Jay Leno
Before
war with Iraq, consider this
by Carla Binion (She's one of the best)
Excerpt:
Before this nation invests trillions of
dollars and spills the blood of innocents over war with Iraq,
Congress and the American people should
consider the following. The first Bush administration
lied to and manipulated Congress, the American
public and the Arab peoples in order to win
support for the Gulf war. Dick Cheney was
then George H. W. Bush's Secretary of Defense,
and Paul Wolfitz was a Defense Department
aide.
Side note: Because of the Gulf War, the Bush family obtained
exclusive
rights to drill in Bahrain.
The Gulf War put b i l l i
o n s of dollars in the Bush family coffers.
You think this coming war won't do the same?
Why do you think they stole the White House? To help working families?
Quotes
"The Gambino crime family is now falling
apart, with Gotti gone.
So now, the biggest crime organization
in New York is the Catholic Church."
--David Letterman
The Gore-Bruce flap
The Media Whores Online version
"Seventy-five bucks for the Boss? Forget about
it, give me two dozen tickets," said Tipper,
as she and her staff hogged more than
their fair share, seemingly oblivious to their conspicuous glutton.
Hmmm, not sure about the "glutton" part. If they'd only gotten
tickets for themselves, I think the press
would label the Gores as "greedy." Besides, first time I had
a chance to buy Zeppelin tickets,
I bought 33, and the gig was almost 400 miles away, but then,
I enjoy my life.
"They wound up being offered four," says
a source.
"But when they were asked to pay $75 apiece,
they said forget it.
And you know, that's why Gore isn't president,
in a nutshell."
No, Gore isn't president because the B.F.E.E. and a crooked
court fixed the election.
Never trust Fox news. They lie when the truth would suit
them better
I hate beating up one of the good guys, but...
...the subject was legalized pot
There
goes Paul Begala again!
Excerpt:
Instead of taking the lefty point of view,
and instead of at least faking it and fighting
for his team, he joined Bob Novak in ridiculing
the pro-logic, pro-pot guy.
Why can't Begala speak for the left?
Was Enron's Cliff Baxter killed over the Merrill Lynch deal?
Excerpt:
The initial plan for the power deal, the
executives said, was to create a kind of mirror swap in which
Enron would purchase energy contracts from
Merrill and Merrill would simultaneously purchase energy
contracts from Enron. But Arthur Andersen
and Merrill Lynch were troubled by the structure of that deal,
former executives said, worried that it
amounted to a wash transaction from which no profits could be claimed.
With time winding down on the fourth quarter,
Enron put pressure on Merrill and the Andersen accountants
to help it complete some kind of deal.
You just gotta see this.
It's what a Democratic
TV ad might look like if the Dems weren't geldings.

Dear Mr. BartCop:
About six weeks ago, a guy at work turned me on
to your web site. I noticed you had a lot
to say about Rush Limbaugh. I had never
heard of him before. Your comments made me curious
so one day I switched from the music I usually
listen to on the radio and started listening to Rush's show.
Well anyway, I'm hooked. You turned me into
a real "Ditto-head." I just love Rush and he makes
so much sense. He always gives both sides
of the argument, too. He is not so one-sided like you are
and I am beginning to notice newsreaders like
Brokaw, Jennings and Rather are, too.
I never miss Rush's show now and I have you to thank. It has changed my life.

This is stalker mail.
My stalkers live and breathe bartcop.com
Every waking moment of their lives is dedicated to this page.
It's what they think about at work, at school, even in church.
They can't get enough, no matter how many times they read and re-read
this page.
They are very, very sick people, but it does demonstrate that the hammer
is getting bigger.
There are other pro-logic sites they could stalk, but they want to
stalk the big one - bartcop.com
If one of them gets published, he gets the "special seat" inside the
circle jerk
And then, ...at the big moment, ...they cry out my name together, in
unison.
"Oh, BartCop!"

Yeah, that's what it is, all right - Vegas without teeth.
In the commercial, they show two Gomers on the backs of ostriches

Subject: Too easy on the pink tutu Democrats?
Hey, BC,
Is there not one leading, elected Democrat who
will hit those Bush bastards
as hard as he can, then hit them again?
If he did, he would become a hero to millions.
He would be accused by the whore press of demagoguery
and class baiting, but so what?
What is a dramatic way for the Bartcop.com community
to communicate our disgust?
How can we make the leading Democrats pay such
a serious price for their spinelessness
that speaking the truth will become less painful
than continuing to grovel like a worm?
Brad
Brad, I'll tell you what's going to happen.
Someday, a Democrat is going to stand up and say "Enough,
Mr. President!"
and become the most powerful man in politics. My question is - where
is he now?
What the hell is he waiting for?
(I hope you weren't suggesting me :)

Saudis lash US 'Christian extremists'
Two
of the craziest extremists
Excerpt:
The Saudi press has launched a vitriolic
attack on what it describes as Christian
fundamentalism in the United States. One
newspaper, al-Watan, said Christian
fundamentalism was no less dangerous to
international peace and security than
other forms of religious extremism.
Another paper, Watani, said the international
media had concentrated only on Muslim fundamentalism,
forgetting that Christian
fundamentalism was just as dangerous.

Hey, it's all fear-based insanity, invented to separate
the scared from their money.
People need to throw off the shackles of superstition and embrace
science and logic.
If people did that, we'd still have the World Trade Centers standing
in New York.
Instead, we have thousands of raped Catholic boys.
They read it in Antrwep, Belgium.
They read it in N'Djamena, Chad.
They read it in Plattsburgh, New York as they count the days
