Quotes
"By blocking a vote on Miguel Estrada, some
Democrats are flaunting the intention
of the Constitution and the tradition
of the Senate, itself. Alexander Hamilton wrote
that the purpose of the Senate confirmation
was to prevent the appointment of unfit
characters. No one can possibly call
Miguel Estrada unfit. "
--Dubya, Washington, D.C.,
Feb. 26, 2003 (dubyaspeak.com)
But Governor, his refusal to answer simple questions proves he's
hiding something.
Why do you guys have to hide if you're not breaking any laws?
Excerpt:
Ari Fleischer (R-Fork Tongue) said
CBS replied it was interested only if President Bush
made the response himself -- which
he said the White House rejected on the grounds that
it could imply a "moral equivalence" between
the two leaders.
"This seems odd they wouldn't let the White
House have a voice," Fleischer lied.
Ari, you're
lying again.
CBS is offering your boy a chance to rebut
- the problem is he can't because has no brain.
Remember during the 2000 campaign I said
Gore should insist the debate be held like two men,
instead of that candy-ass, "debating" format
that allowed Weak & Stupid to hide and evade answers?
Now he's on the world stage and he has to hide again.
This would've shown the country that Bush
was mentally defective, that he couldn't hold his own in a
debate because he's an empty shell of a
man and has no brain functions beyond Play Station 2.
Now, Bush and America will be seen as weak
by all the world because his pea-brain doesn't work.
How did we get stuck with a president without a brain?
Excerpt:
Hundreds of thousands of opponents of war
against Iraq called and faxed U.S. leaders
on Wednesday in a "virtual march on Washington,"
jamming the White House switchboard
and many congressional telephone lines
for several hours.
Coordinated by the Win Without War Coalition,
an umbrella protest group, the action aimed
to direct at least one telephone call and
fax to every U.S. senator every minute throughout the day.
Organizers said they were far exceeding
that goal.
The White House was flooded and most callers
heard a message that "all circuits are busy."

It is not a very beautiful day in the neighborhood.
Someone please, the groundhog.
Cara
Cara, if it's any consolation, at least
Mr Rogers died from natural causes

From Detriot's MetroTimes.com
Powerful words
Thank you, Jack Lessenberry, for that very
nice tribute to Sen. Robert Byrd
(“What kind of country?,” Metro Times, Feb. 19-25).
His speech of Feb. 12,
2003 was indeed one of the most powerful
orations I have ever heard by any senator.
In a time when we are constantly saturated
by the nonsensical ramblings of
a man who did not truly earn the title
of president of the United States, it is
refreshing to hear a true master of oratory
at work.
The mainstream media will not truly cover
anything — such as Sen. Byrd’s speech against
rushing to war — that might anger Karl
Rove, Bush’s “minister of information.” Because of that,
I look to you and others in the alternative
media that can give me a weekly glimpse at the real truth.

Quotes
"Helen Thomas is a legend. She's known and
covered every president since JFK.
In a candid moment, Ms. Thomas spoke
a powerful truth. "George W. Bush is the
worst president in all of American
history." Given how Mr. Bush has squandered
the surplus, trashed the economy and
is now hurdling toward a war that is unpopular,
unjust, unwise and unwarranted, I think
I see Helen's point. Now, the GOP has moved
into smear mode. The RNC is urging
it's faithful to, "call her out," which apparently
means harassing Helen by e-mail, and
phone, and fax. I guess nothing makes a
Republican feel better than beating
up on an 82-year-old woman."

James Carville: "What about people in South Carolina? There's
a BMW plant in South Carolina.
There's a Mercedes plant in Alabama. Look, should these people
go to work or should they strike?
I mean what are you saying? You don't want me to buy a German
watch? Are these bad Americans
that are working these plants and feeding their familes?"
David Bossie: "What we're saying
is that this coalition of the willing, people who are interested in
making the Germans and the French understand
what we're saying, which is enough is enough.
You're standing in the way of the Iraqi
people being liberated."
James Carville: "So these auto workers in South Carolina and Alabama are bad Americans?"
David Bossie: "You know what, James?
The guys who are the hard workers in Alabama and
Georgia and South Carolina, what they are...You
know what? Because these guys who are in
the National Guard and in the Reserves,
they're all overseas."
James Carville: "I don't need a speech. I've been in the
Marine Corps. Answer the question.
Mr. Bossie has attacked autoworkers in South Carolina and Alabama...I
want to give you a chance.
Dave, we'll give you a chance to apologize to hardworking people
in Alabama."
David Bossie: "I thought we were
going to have a serious conversation, a serious debate.
You just want to yell and scream at me
and that's fine."
James Carville: "I'll scream at you any time I want to,
boy."

Bart, I finally managed to get thru
the show.
I was tempted several times to turn it
off.
I was real depressed watching that bitch
coulter.
She claimed that bush's SAT scores were
huge - 'twice as good as Bill Bradley's'
- Maher looked at her and said
'You just make shit up!'
That was great!
Geo
I agree.
I plan to watch it each Friday, then as soon as it's over,
I'll switch to Dave and see who's 'on cape.'
...and if Bush's scores were really higher than Bill Bradley's
that's proof somebody took the test for the brainless Bush boy.

No
War
by Jackson Thoreau
Excerpt:
Such an invasion makes no sense. It's immoral
- more than a million Iraqi kids have died due
to sanctions and other measures since the
Persian Gulf war and many more will die faster
with such an invasion. This war goes against
Christ's call to love our enemies and does not
meet the criteria of a just war, as the
Pope and others have said.
Subject: Grammy censors
Did they trample on the artists' rights?
It looks like it. But they'll get away with it
until someone has the courage to go ahead
and do it and force them to cut off the mikes.
If that happens, though, it might start
to wake up the ditto monkeys as to what's happening.
As long as they keep everything behind
the scenes, and bully Hollywood and recording artists,
they'll continue to get away with this
shit.
I believe Sheryl, but I'm also a little
disappointed that they were able to run over her.
Sorry about the unemployment "thing", but
I'm hoping to hear Bartcop Radio soon. Good luck!
Glenda
Glenda, thanks for that.
You know what would've been cool?
If artist after artist went into an anti-war rant and got their
mic turned off.
CBS pays millions for a show and then turns the mic off for the
performers?
ha ha
That would be great TV!
Out
of the wreckage
By tearing up the global rulebook,
the US is undermining its own imperial rule
Excerpt:
The men who run the world are democrats
at home and dictators abroad.
They came to power by means of national
elections which possess, at least,
the potential to represent the will of
their people. Their citizens can dismiss
them without bloodshed, and challenge their
policies in the expectation that,
if enough people join in, they will be
obliged to listen.
Note: Bush has made it very clear.
He sees the millions protesting in the streets,
but nothing will deter a madman who's obsessed with a bad and bloody idea.
Internationally, they rule by brute force.
They and the global institutions they
run exercise greater economic and political
control over the people of the poor
world than its own governments do. But
those people can no sooner challenge or
replace them than the citizens of the Soviet
Union could vote Stalin out of office.
Their global governance is, by all the
classic political definitions, tyrannical.
Ari just drew himself up with imperious
indignation and said something like
"you're implying that the President
is buying the votes of other nations
and that's just not a consideration"
or words to that effect.
And guess what happened? The whole press
corps, normally sheep, broke out
in laughter... sweet, derisive laughter.
They kept on laughing as Ari turned on
his heels and strode out. Sheesh.

Have you noticed a difference in the salute
given by our military as President Bush walks by?
Most folks would not notice anything, but
those of us who have served in the military see it right away.
Next time, Watch: When President Bush leaves
Air Force One, the honor guards salute and face him
as he disembarks, then turn their faces
towards him as he passes by. They continue to salute his back
as he walks away. This kind of salute has
not been seen in the previous eight years, though it is customary
courtesy to the Commander-in-Chief. They
are not required to salute his back. They are only required to salute.
They can remain face-forward the entire
time. And that is what they did during the previous administration..
Our soldiers were forced to obey his orders,
but they were not forced to respect him
Respect the numb-nutted moron?
Do
you think he can even spell "salute?"
The armed forces respects the pampered moron who went AWOL during wartime.
Strange but true.
Excerpt:
Then there was the creepy way Dean kept
referring to the president. He called the showdown
"Bush's undeclared war" and "Bush's bombing campaign."
He described it as something
"the president has put us into" and warned his
audience, "We should think very, very seriously
whether we are going to take ownership
of the bombing - as though the president weren't the
nation's commander in chief. He urged Congress
to de-fund the war and "pull out the forces
we now have in the region."

Quotes
"When the news media turn into a propaganda
arm of the administration--as Fox News has
shamelessly become--it makes it hard
for democracy to work. By echoing rather than
challenging the administration's distortions,
by failing to report what is going on in the region,
by failing to let Americans understand
why much of the world opposes the war on Iraq,
the media are compounding the president's
error. It is allowing him to get away without
sharing why he's made the choices he
has made."

Axes Donahue
Excerpt:
It could be that giant clicking sound MSNBC
heard was disgusted liberals tuning out
each time Phil effused praise for the unelected
fraud - which was nearly every show.
Could viewer feedback to the network and
word of mouth have kept Donahue on the air longer?
Possibly. But no doubt many activists
considered promoting the success of an unabashed
Naderite too high a risk for later betrayal,
and a waste of time.
Word to future librul talk show hosts
and spineless Democrats: Had Al Gore served in the office
to which he was elected, flagship Faux
blowhard Bill O'Reilly, host of the highest-rated screamfest on TV,
would never refer him as "My President"
in the way Donahue bizarrely referred to the unelected fraud
on a daily basis. Further, promoting
third party, no-chance candidates is no way to endear yourselves to
the vast majority of those who worked/voted
to defeat Bush regime in '00 and hope to defeat it again in '04.
I plan to take the advice of MWO.
When we take to the webwaves on April 15th,
we will not be heaping praise on the unelected fraud.
Oh, and another thing:
We're going to be around a damn lot longer than six months.

a democracy -- which it is surely not,
now that the Busheviks have taken over."

"Saddam is Bush’s Butcher of Baghdad. The most
important phrase from Condi Rice
was when she said it’s immoral to leave
Saddam in power for 12 years. Of course, it’s
been 24 years. He was their favorite
dictator. They kept him in power because he was
against the Unicycle of Evil, Iran.
Saddam is a killer, a murderer and a berzerker.
A Frankenstein created by Bush. He
hired him, so I guess he has the right to fire him."
