Quotes
"While Bush was assiduously taking notes at
Waco, Cheney didn't try very hard to suppress a yawn.
He just doesn't enjoy vaudeville in
the middle of the day. Who could take seriously a forum that
produced an idea of having the robber
barons band together and "self-police" their ranks?
Bush was enthusiastic about it."
-- Mary McGrory

Firefighters Vote to Boycott Backstabbing Bush
Excerpt:
The International Association of Fire Fighters
voted unanimously on Wednesday to boycott
a national tribute to firefighters who
died on Sept. 11, in an angry response to George Bush's
rejection of a bill that included $340
million to fund fire departments.
"The president has merely been using firefighters
and their families for one big photo opportunity.
Don't lionize our fallen brothers in
one breath, and then stab us in the back by eliminating funding.
President Bush, you are either with
us or against us. You can't have it both ways."
Pardon me, but that son of a bitch...
He's never worked a day in his rich life, and he blocks funding
for these brave men?
He can't help the firefighters because his oil buddies need another tax cut.
FBI Admits No Evidence Ties 'Dirty Bomb' Suspect to al-Qaida
Excerpt:
An American touted by Ashcroft as a significant
terrorism figure with plans to detonate a radioactive bomb
is probably a "small fish" with no ties
to al-Qaida cell members in the United States, says the FBI.
Their investigation has produced no evidence
that Jose Padilla had begun preparations for an attack
and little reason to believe he had any
support from al-Qaida to direct such a plot, said one FBI official.
Another lie from the war-without-end power-grabbers.
Wait, didn't Ashcroft give Padilla some really evil-sounding Muslim
name?
Is it OK for us to call this guy "Padilla?"
Or can we be arrested, tortured and snuffed out for doing that?
I've had
about enough from you, Funnyboy.
You're
about to find out what the new Amerika is all about.
One nation,
one supreme leader, under God, with no dissent.
I have a question:
If Bush was surprised by 9-11,
why did Jeb call out the Florida National Guard on 9-6?
Restoring
“Investor Confidence”
They don’t call them Confidence Men for nothing
by Bryan Zepp Jamieson
Excerpt:
George W. Putsch, as part of his hilarious
crackdown on corporate accounting crime
(what used to be called “swindles” back
before they became legitimate business tactics)
ordered the CEOs to certify their quarterly
reports.
Normally, of course, the President wouldn’t
dream of subjecting the CEOs to such a thing.
After all, he is, in large measure, their
creation. They wanted their own boy in the White House,
and oddly enough, George was the best they
could come up with.
Dirty
Dealings? Bush Is Shocked ... Shocked!
His friends helped create corporate America's mess
by Robert
Scheer
Excerpt:
Last week, speaking in Mississippi near
the corporate headquarters of WorldCom,
Bush consoled fired workers with his shopworn
canard that the loss of their jobs was
the result of "shady corporate practices"
that deeply shocked him.
This naivete, if not feigned, reflects an
embarrassing
stupidity about how he
and his corporate buddies played the capitalism
game during the last decade.
Go to Hell.

Quotes
"May I say something about Ann Coulter? She
is a half-wit, a termagant, a dimwit, a blowhard,
a worthless silicone nothing, physically
ugly and could be likened to Eva Braun. As it happens,
these are all descriptions or characterizations
Coulter uses for others in her book, "Slander."
It ought to be called "Mirror."...
-- Richard Cohen
I have a question:
If Bush was surprised by 9-11,
why did he & Cheney eat Cipro when
there was no mention of anthrax that day?

Subject: Heston & Gore
BC,
Mr. Fake Name is right on this one.
Here's the quote:
"So as we set out this year to defeat the divisive
forces that would take freedom away,
I want to say those words again for
everyone within the sound of my voice to hear and
to heed, and especially for you, Mr.
Gore: From my cold dead hands!"
Jerry K
Jerry, here's how that went:
> Fake: Heston didn't say Clinton, he said Gore.
> Bart: One of us is crazy.
He said Heston never used Clinton's name, just Gore's.
This is a mistake on his part.
It's tough to bet that Person X *never* said something,
especially if the guy you're betting with saw it happen live.
It's my best guess Heston also said that about Gore, and it's
a better guess
that Acts-like-Cruise said it at every NRA rally and the cameras
caught it every year.
That's why I said one of us was crazy.
He's telling me that what I saw didn't happen.
I have a question:
If Bush was surprised by 9-11,
why were our fighter jets told to "stand down?"
And if they weren't told that,
why didn't they scramble after those four hijacked jets?

Lantern is Not Gay

Subject: our faux pay raises
I've been laughing (in a very sad way) at
the numbers showing increases in wages.
These numbers are proudly presented
when folks want to point to strength in the economy,
but they are also used to help gage potential
inflation. But those numbers are frighteningly inaccurate.
Despite pay raises, many workers (my husband
& I included) are making less money than 3 years ago.
Why? Because the numbers don't include health insurance premiums.
This year, our health insurance premiums
went up 31%!!!!! We also have a family member
who just turned 50 which greatly escalated
his premium (and that was before the 31% hike).
Our take home pay is now lower than it
was 3 years ago. (In our business, employees pay
25% of our health insurance premiums.)
I need a poster, "Health over Hussein."
Anne
Anne, I'm with you
My health insurance was $106, then $160, then $240,
now it's $300 a month and they haven't paid a claim in years
Remember when HC costs went down when Clinton threatened them?
When they saw Moneybags Bush coming, they knew they could Enron
us to death
and the Unelected Fraud would sit back and smile - he's got his.
A double-shot of Monkey Mail

Quotes
Michael Moore: Just an example of what
happened today. Here’s a quote from Bush
down at the economic conference there.
He said, “The government accounting system
is pretty kind of hard to explain. I’ve
been there 18 months trying to figure it out.”
And then everybody laughed.
You know, that’s the kind of clown we’ve
got in the White House right now. And people see this.
And they watch all of his Republican
rich buddies there. All these people, like Schwab, who contributed
$900,000 to his campaign and to the
Republicans.
They’re all sitting there laughing at
this, while they’re out here wondering, is my pension going to be there?
How am I going to pay the doctors bills?
Why do my kids have to work at McDonald’s so we have a
three-income household to pay the bills?
You know, and they’re sitting down there in Waco laughing at this?
I’m telling you, there’s going to be
hell to pay come November. And the people who are going to lose seats
are the Republicans, as a result of
Bush and their policies, and this charade down in Waco today.
But Mike, you worked so hard to elect George W Bush - why are
you turning on him now?
Nader is planning to screw Democrats in November - he's not targeting
the people you speak of.
You and Donahue and Nader are not only proud of electing Bush
- you're giving us your
personal guarantee that you're going to do the same thing
this election and in 2004.
What the hell's wrong with you, Mike?
A thousand times you told us that Bush & Gore were twins,
but now you don't like Bush?
How many seats will the Greens pick up in Novermber, two? Three?
Way to make a change, Mike.
The Democrats gave us 22 million jobs in the ninties,
the greedy-ass Republicans have lost almost 2 million
jobs,
but you sit there with your phony photo-op in front of the Buick
plant
whining because people don't have jobs?
Buy a mirror, Mike.
You're the problem.
We could've extended the Clinton miracle four more years, but
your ego got real big
and you found an anti-jobs, anti-Democrat niche and made a looooooooot
of money.
Those people in Flint should be kicking your ass.

Knew" book.)
Subject: the argument against marijuana
"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers
in the U.S., and most are Negroes,
Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers.
Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result
from marijuana use. This marijuana
can cause white women to seek sexual relations
with Negroes, entertainers and any
others... The primary reason to outlaw marijuana
is its effect on the degenerate races."
---Excerpt from the testimony of Harry J. Anslinger,
director at the Federal Bureau
of Narcotics, before
the U.S. Senate in 1937.
(I never said it was a good argument.. lol..
Basically, the bastards outlawed it on
a racist basis, at least partially!)
Jessica
ha ha
I love that part about causing white women to seek sex with negroes
and entertainers.
"It's such an evil drug..."
I have a question:
What's that Bush boy going to do after
we attack Iraq and he can't find Saddam?
I'll tell you - his bought-and-paid-for
good puppy press will bombard us with fake stories
again and again and again about how
we're "closing in" and "on the brink" of finding him.
If the Democrats had this good puppy
press, we'd all have affordable health insurance,
we'd still have the WTC and the stock
market would be at 14,000 by now.

If Bush was surprised by 9-11,
why is it important that the events of that day are NOT investigated?
BartFest2002 - Party of the Year
Make your own hotel reservations.
The dice have been rolled!
There is a misconception about the August 15 deadline.
That is NOT the last day you can buy tickets.
Tickets will be available until the night of the party.
At this point, it would help to know if you're a "maybe."
We heard from a whole bunch of people since yesterday.
Some who can't make it sent a small gratuity to help defray expenses
- thanks for that!
I heard from Oklahoma Bob (from the Julie video) - he's coming.
Forum manager Genslab is coming,
We got two from Chicago and - what's this...? ...Sophia from
Irvine, CA says all Californians are NOT
party wimps, and she's coming with a friend and Tommy Mack from
Los Angeles says he's coming,
and he's bringing Krista and Dan! Woo Hoo!
Californians!
Then there's this:
Subject: Bartfest Las Vegas
I am totally interested in attending the
festivities in Las Vegas on Sept. 28. I do not want to stay
at an expensive hotel. Please
send me info on other accomodations. I will be sending $75 soon.
Any info on this will be appreciated.
I will be coming in from Grand Junction, Colo. Thank you
Dan
Dan, I understand.
The only reason we plan to stay at The Rio is because
Mrs. BartCop must be made happy.
She likes those hueueueuge properties where the
minimum bets are $10 to $25.
I'm not great at BJ (that's blackjack) but at $25 a pop, one
can lose $100 a minute.
There are tons of places that are inexpensive.
Arizons Charlies, Motel 6 (right next to the MGM) Lady Luck,
Binion's Horseshot, 4 Queens,
the Stratosphere, The Aztec, Palace Station (5) The Sahara, The
Riviera. The Stardust, the Frontier...
The Tropicana and San Remo are right in the heart of The Strip
- consider them. There are dozens more,
but generally, downtown is the place. Lady Luck is $55 on Friday
& Saturday and $29 during the week.
See you there!
Update:
Today is the day we should know something.
This is the biggest gamble I've taken since I debated The Bird
in the chat room (cough)
...and we're doing it in Las Vegas, the most exciting
city in the world!
ha ha
...it's so exciting!!!
Also, East Coast is still leading the West Coast greater
than 3-2.
Did Enron hit you guys that hard?
...we are out on a limb, ...but it's so exciting!!!
(Oh, God, please don't let me lose my ass
on this!)
Reminder: This is a BartFest, Julie's not able to
be there.
Lately, two people have asked, so I wanted to make that clear.

28th -
