Quotes
"I believe in prayer. I pray. I pray for strength,
I pray for guidance, I pray for forgiveness."
-- The Tool in Chief,
lying his ass off in a room full of preachers, 02/06/03
Tell the truth, George.
You pray for Iraq's oil. You pray for power.
You pray for money. You pray for verbal skills.
Excerpt:
Economists led by 10 Nobel laureates attacked
Bush's $695 million tax-cut, arguing that it
fails to address the problems facing the
U.S. economy and will add to long-term budget deficits.
"Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz told the BBC's
World Business Report that
Mr. Bush's plans were "fiscal madness,
fiscal irresponsibility".
.
Bush's tax plan is a joke on the poor and middle class.
It rewards the already super-rich and penalizes the poor and
the middle class.
If we want to get the economy moving again, we'd adopt The
BartCop Tax Plan
which puts $3000 in the hands
of every working couple, $6000 if two
kids are working
and it's only 20 percent of the cost of Bush's bullshit giveaways
for the rich.
What's in the way?
Bush isn't about helping American families - he's about getting
more billions for the B.F.E.E.
That's why they stole the election, so they could steal from
the Social Security fund.
Quotes
"You always have a sense with him that he's
going to do his best, but that ultimately,
Bush believes it's according to Thy
will, not mine. It makes him brave.
It makes him confident that if you
do the right thing, the right thing will succeed."
--David Frum, former White
House speechwriter
He's confirming that Bush is not sane.
Bush thinks the Invisible Cloud Being wants
him to have Iraq's oil and
his single-minded obsession with murdering
Saddam is endangering tha planet.
Our allies aren't with us and we're now
hated all over the world
Bush has been the most effective recruiting
tool Al Qaeda has ever had.
Bush is proving that what Osama said was true, that America wants
to destroy Arab countries.
If Saddam feels cornered and launches a dirty bomb against Israel,
does anyone think
Ariel Sharon will NOT retaliate? He's already demonstrated
that he doesn't care what
the Bush boy thinks - he's going to do what he's going to do
- more religious insanity.
Will this war end with a mushroom?
Or many, many mushrooms?
Iraq
Grants Visas to Human Shields
Welcome to the Titanic, Ladies and Gentlemen
Excerpt:
50 Western anti-war activists received
visas Tuesday to enter Iraq where they plan
to form "human shields" in an effort to
deter a possible U.S.-led attack on the Arab state.
The volunteers said in the Turkish capital
they hoped their presence and the possibility
of Western casualties would encourage [Bush]
to re-think plans to bomb Baghdad.
Bush doesn't think about things, so why would anyone expect him
to re-think anything?
I wish I was wrong - I wish Bush had a heart or a brain or a
conscience, but he doesn't.
Sidebar:
Ron Reagan Junior used to say: "Once my
father has made up his mind about something,
no amount of facts can make him change
it." Bush is the same way. He makes decisions
like a ten year old boy at Neverland Ranch
and he doesn't look back. I mean - why should he?
"God's divine hand" is guiding Bush - what's
to reconsider?
I hope these suicides are not televised.
Quotes
"Ashcroft raised the nation’s terror alert
from yellow to orange.
Or as they call it when they explain
it to Bush – changing from Bert to Ernie."
--Conan
Excerpt:
Theories abounded. Susan McDougal's favorite:
She was in love with Bill Clinton.
It makes her laugh that Kenneth Starr believed
she would serve18 months for civil contempt
to protect a man she hardly knew. And how
he even dispatched an attractive male attorney
to try to break her silence.
"Only a man would think that would work,"
she said.

Quotes
"Why can’t you share your bed?
The most loving thing to do is to share
your bed with someone...
It’s very charming. It’s very sweet.
It’s what the whole world should do.”
-- Michael Jackson,
44, on why he sleeps with several children not his own
TIME
Magazine (granted, they can't be trusted) did
a thing on Bush's
plan to cut taxes on dividends. (I wonder if he
knows what that means?)
Will this proposal help people like you and me? The Tool-in-Chief
says so.
These figures are from TIME's Feb 3 issue.
As you can see, the average
tax cut to these people is $4.300,000
The super-rich gete theirs, and Mike & Betty (that's you
& me) get three dollars.
THIS is what Bush is doing to America.(Plus the war, the
terrorism, tearing up the Constitution etc)
You and I will get three dollars, and his super-rich contributors
and the oil companies are getting
the millions that we are forced to borrow and passing
those big bills to our children.
This is insane!
Why don't the Democrats stand up? They should go on Meet
the Whore and tell Russert,
"This is insane! We are borrowing
money to give
the rich Nike guy $14,000,000
...f-ing why?"
Why are the Democrats silent on this?
What's preventing them from speaking out?
What's preventing them from doing their jobs?
Why won't they do the jobs they were hired to do?
Please - don't give any money to the DNC until they earn
it.
If you get a questionaire asking for money and they ask what
issues are important to you,
tell them to stand up like men and do their goddamn jobs ...and
then you'll donate.
Quotes
"I think we're watching the crumbling of a
dynasty of liberalism and socialism.
I've said for the longest time, the
left's kooks are becoming their mainstream,
the left's kooks are who define them
- and these people are whacked out.”
--Rush, the lying vulgar
Pigboy, saying the opposite of what's true
Limbaugh, Coulter, Drudge and Mancow have become "mainstream.".
Their heroes are Randy Weaver, David Koresh, Linda Tripp and
Bob Jones.
The Eureka Lady beats up Bart
Bart,
Susan spoke at the Barnes and Noble in L.A. (The
Grove) to perhaps 100 people, 5 Bartcoppers included.
She looked fabulous by the way. She was
an articulate, intelligent, compassionate speaker.
She gave a brief synopsis of the Starr saga and
her experiences in women's prisons.
She teared up twice when describing the women
in prison and the conditions under which they live.
She's a very real and caring person.
I could feel how deeply she cares about this issue.
She brought up a couple of her lawyers for
a brief spiel each and they spoke glowingly of her
selflessness and how she was more inclined to
talk about the plights of the other women.
She touched briefly on how Jim McDougal made
a deal with Starr, lied, and died in jail anyway.
She took questions and answered all beautifully.
She talked about Ken Starr as a persecutor
as opposed to a prosecutor. She touched on true
Christian behavior as opposed to the sanctimonious
judging done by Starr and the right. She is such
a gracious lady and has such lovely manners.
She signed books for a long time. Her sister
told me she hadn't yet eaten as she can't before
these events and that she was going to take her
out for a meal afterwards.
I brought Bartcop stickers with me. I gave
one to her sister, Paula. I was seated next to Paula
during Susan's speech. I gave one to Susan
to hold for the pics... and to keep. I told her about you.
....she had heard of you she knows about you
and said everywhere she goes we show up. I said we
were there because of you. She said we
should have a get together with you and all of us at a
Bartfest in L.A. It sure sounds to
me as if she's game.
Susan's sister Paula
It was a joy to meet her and we did say "Hey from Bart" and that she is our hero!!!!!
Panda
Panda, thanks for that and double thanks for the pictures
Dueling Quotes
"The inspectors are now free to use the American
U-2s
as well as French and Russian
planes."
-- Mo al-Douri,
Iraqi UN ambassador, 02/11/03
"The bottom line is the president is interested
in disarmament.
This does nothing to change that."
-- White House statement brushing
aside the Iraqi concession
Of course this changes nothing.
Bush doesn't want a settlement - he has to have a war.
How else can he steal that Iraqi oil without a war?

A few years from now, when the Rush/FOX/GOP media monopoly crumbles,

remember what Susan and Julie Hiatt Steele did for this country.
They might
go down in history as the first two who said, "No!" to this madness

Meet Susan McDougal,
buy her book,

thank her for kicking Po' Kenny

Quotes
“What does this say about American pop culture
that when I say that
the Iraqis have allowed U2 over-flights,
I get e-mail from people
wondering if Bono has been allowed
to fly over the country.”
--Rush, the lying Pigboy
Rush, it proves you have the stupidest audience in America. You
don't even care about politics.
You're so disinterested in politics, you never even bothered
to get your fat ass off the couch and
vote for Ronald Reagan. But you saw that you could make money
by leading the ditto-monkeys
into ignorance, intolerance and racism and that choice made you
a very wealthy man.
...so stop whining and complaining about how stupid your listeners are.
Night in the big city
We decided to do an OKC thing.
It's only 90 miles away, but we hadn't been there in 10 years
except for the times we drove thru it going to Las Vegas.
First thing we hit the TITANIC Exhibit, so I can stay married.
It was good, better than the 1999
Titanic Exhibit at The Rio Hotel and Casino.
It was your usual, really good Titanic exhibit, but in this version
they added sounds
and varying temperatures to the experience and that made it tons
more realistic.
When we walked thru First Class, it was warm and quiet.
When we walked thru Second Class, it was colder and noisier.
In steerage, it was as cold as Laura's heart the day her mother
died,
and it was louder than a Kathy Lee sweat shop on Puerto Rican
Independence Day.
The Boiler Room, where the "Black gang" shoveled coal, was loud
and hot.
They closed with a super dark room where you could see all the
stars.
One wall was a giant block of ice shaped like a North Atlantic
'berg
They invited the crowd to put their hands on the ice, then you
read that the water
the T sunk in was just 28 degrees, because salt water freezes
lower than the temp of ice.
Made you reeeeeel glad you were standing in the dusty plains of
Oklahoma...
So, I gave at an A- because the girls weren't that cute.
.
We headed to the hotel to get ready for our 6 O'clock.
Check me out - Intenet Hotel Rate Sleuth Boy.
I got us a room at the NW/OKC Hilton for $69.
You east & west coasters can't imagine how far a dollar goes
in the Heartland.
We had time, so she wanted to watch a pay movie on TV.
(Mrs. Bart loves any kind of "charge it to my room" stuff.)
She decided on "The Banger Sisters," starring Goldie Hawn and
Susan Sarandon, which I
was OK with because it's about exactly what the name implies,
but they weren't really sisters.
They were known for "rattling" every rock group that came thru
LA during their time period,
which was confusing because it was 2002 and they kept talking
about Jim Morison and
Country Joe and the Fish 20 years ago, but my good Catholic math
put it at 30 years or more.
Sidebar:
In a few years, Kate Hudson's kids will
watch Grandma in a big hit movie where she
told Geoffery Rush that she was a ":handjob
specialist," and then she "rattled" him.
Bottom line - it could've been a movie as big as anything,
because most of us
have a few early stories that we'd like to keep away from our
children, right?
Even great-grandma had some wild sexual encounters from the 30's.
Spoilers:
All the promise this movie had was wasted.
Towards the end, Sarandon (the straight
one) has to face her bewildered kids while she was drunk,
high, dressed like a party girl with pictures
of famous penises they'd had strewn all over the floor.
They switch to a cemetary scene and when
they come back, the older girl is graduating
and both kids have learned their lesson
and the movie was suddenly over.
They were missing an entire scene!
What turned the girls around?
They just found out Mom was no Pickles
Bush, but instead she was a druggie-groupie who
banged Jim Morrison, so they suddenly decided
to study harder and graduate with honors?
That makes sense?
For $50, I would've written them a 3 minute
scene that explained why the girls turned on a dime
and that would've made the movie tons more
real, but
nooooooooooooo.
Coming up on six o'clock, it was time to meet our host, Oklahoma
Bob, and grab some grub.
He drove us downtown, past the OKC Bombing Memorial, which we
saw from the car.
After that, he took us to Bricktown, where we ate at Mickey Mantle's.
I almost fainted
when I saw the prices, but it was cold and Mrs. Bart hates walking
around at night in the cold wind,
so we decided to stay. This was a real fancy place,
so I asked Cubby if they had a tequila list.
He said no, but they did have Jose Cuervo and
Patron Silver. Yuck City!
So I ordered a shot of Wild Turkey - they understand whiskey
in most places.
Cubby told us the day's specials, all of which included mussels
and a bernaise sauce
soaked in white wine with super-hot black pepper that would choke
Paul Harvey.
We got a steak (great) and a baked potatoe* (best ever).
Afterwards we had a nightcap at the hotel - again, no tequila,
so I got
a shot of Maker's Mark, or as James Carville calls it,
"Makaz
Mock."
Great dinner, great conversation - it was a great night out -
thanks Bob.
Sidebar:
I've never done one of these before, and
only agreed to do this one because Bob
is a BartCop pillar who drove to DC for
Juliefest and drove to Las Vegas for BartFest.
We woke up Sunday morning to find Oklahoma had 4-10 inches of
snow.
Of course, by Monday we had the air-conditioner going - Oklahoma
has crazy weather.
There's a famous Will Rogers quote: "If
you don't like the weather in Oklahoma,
go to hell because the weather never
changes there."
Thanks again, Bob.

Quotes
"It's unfortunate that they are in stark disagreement
with the rest of their NATO allies.
They're three countries. There are
19 countries in NATO. So it's 16-3. I think it's a mistake,
and what we have to do for the United
States is make sure that that planning does go forward,
preferably within NATO but if not bilaterally
or multiple bilaterals...the planning's going to go
forward outside of NATO if necessary."

If the planet were to begin to crack, Bush will still start his war.
If the moon went out of its orbit, Bush will still start his war.
If the Pope joined the human shields, Bush will still
start his war.
If Mars attacks, Bush will still start his war.
I wish those human shields understood that.
