Quotes
"I've said many times, people won't elect a
party to defend America
if they refuse to defend themselves.
The Democrats have a timidity problem."
-- James Carville, at the end of prime time
last night
But
fighting is wrong!
It's
not right for doves to fight
It
makes us just like them.
We'd
rather sing 'Kumbaya,'
than
call Bush on his crimes.
What I heard America say last night
We want the rich to have more
money
We want Bush to have more power
and more oil
Women can't be trusted make
sound decisions on abortion
We need a war with Iraq no matter
how many dead it costs us.
We really didn't need the Bill
of Rights, anyway
We should leave the important
decisions to God
We like what Bush has done with
the economy
Black Americans would rather
have an all-Republican government
Rush and Fox News are telling
the truth
We need more oil men in government
Blacks, gays and women need
to take a step back
They want the Supreme Court
stacked with "what Bush wants" judges
Of course, none of that is true, but the Democrats refused to
fight, just like Gore in 2000
If they continue to wear the pink tutu, we'll lose 2004, and
then Jeb will win in 2008.
Bag o' Hairspray finally won an election
"Jesse
Helms in high heels..."
One of the comments in last night's chat room.
For a good part of the evening we had over 100 chatters.
Quotes
"This is great - now we can retire. With
the GOP controlling the Judiciary Committee,
we'll be sure and get "what Bush
wants" judges for the next decade or so."
-- three Supreme Court judges
Bush's
Life of Deception
by Sam Parry at consortiumnews.com
Excerpt:
Bush’s self-certainty appears unshaken
despite obvious and costly misjudgments,
including his failure to heed warnings
about the al Qaeda terrorist threat in the first months
of his presidency and his rejection of
advice that his tax cut would throw the government
into deficit. Rather than admit to flaws
or reassess situations, Bush digs in his heels (as with
the tax cut) or moves to block public disclosure
of the full story (as with stopping the
proposed independent commission on the
Sept. 11 attacks).
Subject: Bush owns everything
Can you believe it?
Bush now owns the white house, congress,
the judiciary and the media.
This is the WORST thing that could happen
to this nation. We're fucked.
I expect that soon we will all be forced
to do a lot of things we don't want to do--accept a lot
of things that are truly repugnant to our
very nature as Americans--perpetual war, right wing judges,
faith based programs, further inequality
in the economy, assaults on the rest of the constitution,
a coronation for the new 'king', and everybody
gets a tattoo and an ID card.
Gully
Gully, the bottom line is... they wanted it more than we did.
We weren't willing to make the effort.
Oh sure, if it was handed to us we'd accept it, but the Democrats,
just like they did in Florida in 2000,
had "other, more important things to do," than fight for what
they believe in.
The Republicans were Pete Rose last night, we were Randy Moss.
Things that went right last night
Hutchison the religiously-insane
Republican adulterer gave us a senate seat.
Steve Largent (R-Jesus Twin)
lost the OK Gov's seat by 7,000 votes, but so far, Largent had refused
to conceed as this was written. How is it possible
that a football player lost in Oklahoma?
Ther guy that beat him, Brad Henry, was endorsed
by former OU coach Barry Switzer
Gray Davis is still California
governor...
...there's gotta be more good news than that, right?
Jesus, there were 435 House races, 36 governor races and 33 senate
races.
Over 500 races and I can only find three important elections
that we won?
Subject: CNN Whores
Dear Bart -
At the EXACT MOMENT I was reading about
Jeb's list of who's who in Florida - Clinton, Gore,
Jackson and Sharpton - Judy Woodriff was
playing a clip of Jeb running down the list.
But guess what!?
They edited out the Jackson/Sharpton part.
Good God.
Let's not make Jeb look bad.
Vicki
Key West
Well, sure.
If they played what Jeb said, voters would
know he's a racist.
Now we go to War!
The Democrats lost last night because they
made the mistake of being suckered in to supporting Bush's war.
Most of America had no real choice and
decided not to vote. The choice was between a Republican who
supports Bush's war - or a Democrat who
supports Bush's war. Why bother to vote? When the Democrats
decided to support a war for political
reasons they lost the respect of their supporters.
And now - since war seems to work so well
for the Republicans that there is no doubt now that we will go to war.
And we will have a civil war as well because
there is no one in either party who represents the Will of the People.
America is on the wrong side of history.
We are a threat to the world. Our allies fear us - as they well should.
The America we have known is over. From
this time forward we face war and the distruction of freedom and liberty.

Quotes
“This ought to be slam-dunk on both sides.
Just with the tradition of off-year elections,
the Democrats ought to be talking about
winning12 to 20 seats in the House this election,
and in the Senate, who knows? It shouldn't
be nip and tuck as it is.”
-- Rush, accidentally veering into the truth
Hey, Fuzzball, don't be so smug.
I could beat up Mike Tyson if he refused to fight back.
Fighting
is wrong!
Mr.
Rove said so.
No
Excuses: The Democrats Have Only Themselves to Blame
Joe Conason's Journal
Excerpt:
A party that will not criticize the incumbent
president cannot defeat him,
now or two years from now. A party that
has nothing to say about unfair tax breaks,
a vanishing surplus and a looted economy
cannot expect anyone to listen when it asks for votes.
A party without passion or vision is hardly
a political party at all.
Does Gore Vidal read bartcop.com?
"We know what they want. They want Caspian
oil.
Every important player in the administration
is from the oil and gas business, mostly Texas.
We conquered Afghanistan in order to
put in a pipeline.
We captured Afghanistan because that
is the gateway to Caspian Sea oil.
An hour and 20 minutes passed (on 9-11)
before any plane goes up.
And we have nothing but fighter planes
up and down the United States.
Why didn't the president do anything?
The same people own the media that own
the White House and the Congress and the oil fields.
They all work together to give a false
view of the world to the American people."
Excerpt:
KURTZ [seemingly amazed]: You hold
CNN to a higher standard (than Fox)?
Here Stewart finally asks what so many have wondered since CNN surrendered to the right wing juggernaut.
Jon: Exactly. I expect that from
them. From you guys. I'm upset -- what I don't understand is
why you guys, with the talent and
the credibility, would want to take a page out of their playbook.
Why wouldn't you want to take a page out
of the more credible?
Why wouldn't you go towards the other --
why would you go louder when you could go smarter?

BartCop,
Now that the House and Senate have become
cabinet departments,
it may be time to consider a format change.
You're pretty good at expressing your joy
in music and musicians.
Perhaps all Garbage all the time is in
order now.
There's nothing to prohibit them from doing
exactly as you've been
warning these past two years.
Take care.

Pete, there's always a senate filibuster to stop some wild Bush
action,
but that would take Democratic courage - something in very short
supply.

Dearest Bartcop,
In the days leading up to the mid-term
elections, my hubby and I spent our time preparing to do battle
(gladiator style), against the fascists
republicans. We voted today, and hopefully our ballots were not
cast in vain, but wanted to let you know
we had the spirit of Bartcop with us in our preparations.
We the faithful here in Florida are still
fighting the good fight against the likes of Katherine (cough) Harris.
I know I am a lady and should not curse
like a sailor, but when you slog through the trenches fighting
history's most vile female creation, one
tends to get dirty. Enclosed is a pic of our handmade sign,
one of several we toted, stumped and waved
around Sarasota County trying to raise the hammer higher
- and I must say the response to them was
awesome.
Yours in Bartcop spirit.

Quotes
“When you go in the Oval Office and see the
door leading off to the private area
where the Clinton and Monica stuff
happened, you get incensed. You're incensed
that in this room where so much greatness
has been and so many great things have
happened and so much responsibility
exists, that that thought even occurs to you.
It makes you mad.”
-- Rush
Hey, Pigboy!
That's the room where Bush talked Reagan into giving missles
to Islamic Jihad.
That's the room where Reagan signed a document that funded bin
Laden.
That's the room where Reagan signed a document that funded Noriega.
That's the room where Reagan signed a document that funded Saddam.
That's the room where Reagan signed condolence cards for the
240 marines he got killed.
That's the room where Bush pardoned the Iran-Contra criminals
to bury his crimes.
That's the room where Reagan demanded the Challenger shuttle
be launched early.
That's the room where Reagan took his damn naps.
That's the room where Dim Son signed a document that gave $43M
to the Taliban..
It's also the room where Clinton signed his budgets that turned deficits into surpluses.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it Dim
Son who stopped the Predator
program because he didn't want to just
send a missile up some camel's ass,
or words to that effect? Didn't the ditto
monkeys deride Bill Clinton for the
Predator program and the Cruise missile
strikes? Haven't we spent a number
of months blundering around in Afghanistan,
bombing civilians and devastating
an already devastated country, with no
results to show for it? And now, one
Predator drone knocks out a wanted Al Qaeda
suspect and five of his troops
without the loss or wounding of a single
American, or, for the matter of that,
without the loss of a single Afghan wedding
party.
Surprise, surprise.

I got an e-mail from PayPal saying someone had sent in
$20,000
with a note that said,
"Bigger hammer - higher pie. Let's work
together to take our country back!
PayPal can't handle a transaction that size, so they're
going to mail it directly
to my bank instead of sending it electronically.
Just kidding.
If we were Republicans, we'd be drowning in money.
However, I did find a $5
donation in the PayPal account this morning.
For that I'm very grateful.

A Father's Tale
Subject: Now We'll Never Know The Truth About 9/11
Give Bush credit for helping his party win
back control of the Senate.
He fought so feverishly because his future
also depended on it.
Now the investigation into 9/11, about what
Bush knew and when he knew it
will be buried forever.

“If you knew what the Democrats really thought
and said about Bush in private,
your ears would burn. You wouldn't
vote for another liberal Democrat the rest
of your life and half the Democrats
in this country wouldn't, either, if they could
actually hear these people talk about
Bush and Republicans in private.”
