 Quotes

"He is brilliant, he is brave. And he's got a sack full of guts.''
    -- Big Dog, talking about Wesley Clark

  Excerpt:
 The case for going to war against Iraq was a fraud "made up in Texas"
 to give Republicans a political boost, Ted Kennedy said Thursday.
 Kennedy also said the Bush administration has failed to account for
 nearly half of the $4 billion the war is costing each month. He said he
 believes much of the unaccounted-for money is being used to bribe
 foreign leaders to send in troops.
 

 Poor Teddy, he never was the sharpest knife in the Kennedy kitchen.
 They're not bribing world leaders (or if they are, they're doing it with
 a million or two, not billions). Besides, no other countries have sent
 significan forces to Iraq except going-to-Carlyle bribed Blair.

 No, they're STEALING that money, Ted.
 Where's your head?

 Now get to work on impeachment so the next president will think twice
 about getting hundreds of our brave men killed for no goddamn reason.

 Quotes

"We now know that Saddam has resumed his efforts to acquire nuclear weapons."

"There is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction."

"We know he's reconstituted these programs since the Gulf War."

"We know that he has a long-standing relationship with various terrorist groups, including the Al Qaeda organization."

"We believe he has, in fact, reconstituted nuclear weapons." It’s

  Excerpt:
 Basking in public adoration the United States can only dream of in Iraq, Bill Clinton got
 a hero’s welcome in Kosovo on Friday, four years after NATO bombing ended Serb rule.

 Thousands of Kosovo Albanians turned out to greet the man they see as their liberator from
 a decade of repression under then Slobodan Milosevic. Schoolchildren got the day off and
 well-wishers waving the Star and Stripes thronged Pristina’s Bill Clinton Boulevard as his
 motorcade drove by.  Loud applause erupted when Clinton, while also preaching ethnic
 reconciliation with Serbs, gave what Kosovo Albanians may be keen to interpret as implicit
 support for their drive for complete independence from Serbia. “I love this country,” he told a
 packed Pristina University hall in a speech which, like much of his visit, was broadcast live on television.
 

 If Bush wasn't an oil-stealing, murdering bastard, we'd be respected around the globe.

 Repeat from yesterday Quotes

"The Bush family reeks of fraud and bad karma. But even worse than our wretched, gibbling president
  are the cowardly whores in Hollywood who are currently smearing film stars and music people like
  Johnny Depp by calling them unpatriotic Americans who righteously question the wisdom of invading
  a whole nation of Islam  -- 1.8 billion worshipers -- which is a dangerously stupid idea."

  Excerpt:
 In time, the Baron knows, the people of Arrakis will come to hate Rabban so much that when
 he removes his incompetent nephew and replaces him with Sting... that is, with his other nephew
 Feyd-Rautha, the people will welcome Feyd as a savior.  But Feyd is actually more cruel and
 ruthless than Rabban - the difference being that he is also brilliant.

 So if Dubya is Rabban (and the comparison is too scary to ignore), and the Harkonnens
 are the Bushes  and the Atreides are the Clintons, who is Feyd?

 Feyd is handsome, charming, cunning, and trained since birth to warfare and politics.
 For a while, I thought it was going to be Jeb. But now...

"We're the envy of the whole world but we are trapped in a jobless economy and
  an endless occupation and that is the problem we have to address.  I'm running for

  Excerpt:
 From Rupert Murdoch's Fox News Channel to Sun Myung Moon's Washington Times,
 from Clear Channel's nationwide radio network to the Wall Street Journal's editorial page,
 the machinery churns throughout the 24-hour news cycle.

 Its leverage over public debate in America is profound. Conservatives still complain about
 the "liberal media", but their ideas (and ideologues) command opinion-making airtime and newsprint.

 Fundamental Principles
 Here are some of the principles of the Church of Reality. The Church of Reality is not a dogma based religion.
 There is no "Bible" in the Church of Reality. But there are some principles that we hold to be true. And this list
 will change and grow as we continue to learn. Some of these principles may be wrong and all are open to debate.

 Commitment to Reality - We are committed to trying to see reality the way it really is. We reject dogma and
 mythology and beliefs that have no basis in the real world. If something is true, we believe in it. Although we'll
 probably never accomplish it, we aspire to understand everything the way it really is.
 

 It's the only church I'd give my time and money to.

  Excerpt:
 Bustamante and McClintock are threatening to boycott the only debate Musclehead
 plans to attend in the recall case unless organizers switch to an unscripted format.

 "I wouldn't do a pose-down with him and he obviously doesn't want to debate me,"
 McClintock told KFI-AM, referring to Schwarzenegger's bodybuilding days.
 
 The unusual alliance by Musclehead's fellow front-runners undercut any sign of GOP
 unity less than a week after the party's convention and illustrated claims by McClintock
 — gaining on the action-hero in the latest polls — that he's in the race until the finish.
 

 You see how easy that is?
 This tactic was FREE it was EASY and this kind of action brings BIG HEADLINES.
 The scared-bunny Democrats could do this stuff to Bush every day until next November,
 but they're too goddamn afraid to take ANY action. What's wrong with them?

 Whoever the Democratic nominee turns out to be, all he's got to do to win is challenge
 the never-elected fraud to a real debate, man -to-man, and he's guaranteed to win.
 
 Democrats want to steal their paycheck every month while doing nothing to earn it.

 Blix Attacks 'Spin and Hype' of Iraq Weapon Claims

  Click  Here

  Excerpt:
 Blix, who said this week he believed Iraq destroyed its weapons of mass destruction 10 years ago,
 told BBC radio that the US and Britain "over-interpreted" intelligence about Baghdad's weapons programs.

 Blix compared Bush and Blair to medieval witch-hunters, saying they convinced themselves on the basis of
 evidence which was later discredited, including forged documents about alleged attempts to buy uranium for nuclear weapons.
"In the Middle Ages when people were convinced there were witches they certainly found them. This is a bit risky," said Blix.

"What in a way stands accused is the culture of spin, the culture of hyping.... Advertisers will advertise a refrigerator
 in terms that we don't quite believe in, but we expect governments to be more serious and have more credibility," he said.

  Excerpt:
 Because of Bush's lies, thousands of Americans will suffer cancers, emphysema, heart attack,
 stroke, birth defects, stillbirths, sterility, eye/ear/nose/throat disease and much more.

 There have been few toxic events to match the explosions that pulverized the two WTC towers.
 The short-term deaths of three thousand people will be dwarfed over the long term by the lethal fallout.

 This man has horribly wronged the people of New York, whose terrible tragedies he continues to exploit.
 He puts us all at risk in exchange for campaign contributions.

 New Yorkers---all Americans---suffer and die as a result. It's a debt that can never be repaid.

 Subject: No job, lost the house....

 Hey Bart,

 You said this on Thursday in reaction to a great Molly Ivins column:

> “Having a great economy means you get to keep your house and your car?
>  It means you can afford braces and clothes for the kids. It means you can take a vacation
>  and unwind from the nit-picking troubles of your job. It means you can actually go to the doctor
>  when you feel bad and insurance will soften the blow. It even means that Dad doesn't hit Mom anymore,
>  because he's not cracking up from the stress of trying to making ends meet, but they never do.”

 This really hit home. I’ve been out of work since August of 2002, and I was forced to sell my house
 (I’m actually lucky...I got somebody to buy it just before the bankers came and repossessed it).
 My cars are old, but still running (although one of them doesn’t go very far in the rain before stalling).
 Braces are out of the question (as are routine dental exams), and the Good Will store has been seeing
 some of our $1.00-per-shirt business lately.

 Vacation?  What a word! I dream of taking a walk on the beach.

 Why, I’d even like to be down there now, hurricane or no hurricane. No health insurance...
 I warned my wife and two kids last year, “NOBODY IS ALLOWED TO GET SICK OR INJURED!”
 I would NEVER hit my wife of 23 years, but, frankly, I have thought seriously about “hitting” myself on occasion.
 My ends are so far apart that, when and if they eventually DO meet again, they will probably speak in
 different languages and be unable to understand one another.

 I look forward to Dean or Clark or somebody giving Bush the ass-kicking he truly deserves.

 Anyway, keep up the great work. You help me and many dozens of others to make it through each day.

 Please be gentle...

 Troops do not pay for meals in hospital's anywhere.
 They all get fed while recovering.  Your article implies that they have to PAY to EAT.
 Not true.
 The bills are for the money for substance collected extra while they are in the hospital.

 Why do we have to pay $8.10 to servicemen each day for subsistance?
 Does the Government not provide food and items for them?
 Why not give all servicemen a $8.10 day raise in pay if neessary?

 If Billions can go to Halliburton why not a few hundred thousand to the troops?

 Just my view on this matter.....
 Keep up the good work....

 Subject: Bush: No Iraqi link to Sept. 11

 Bart,

 This is *it*. I urge you to jump up and down more <eep, eep>, and exhort your readers
 to email every newspaper, and call every Congresscritter, to call for impeachment.
 

 My letter to the Chicago Trib:

 To the Editor:
 
 Mr. Bush now admits that Saddam Hussein's regime had no link to 9/11, or al Qaeda.
 There are no weapons of mass destruction. Either we have spent tens of billions of our tax dollars
 on utterly false intelligence, or this administration took us to war, at a cost of currently over $150B,
 and over 300 American lives, and probably over a thousand wounded or maim Americans, and tens
 of thousands of Iraqis, for a lie.

 President Clinton was impeached over lying about sex. Is it not far past time to call for the impeachment
 of Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney...and if not now, when?

 Mark, the Democrats are too afraid of Karl Rove.
 They'd give their children away before they'd make a move on Bush.

 Quotes

"Suddenly the president, the vice president and sundry other administration officials are
  publicly "correcting" certain aspects of the propaganda campaign that drove the United
  States into war with Iraq. Yet anyone who reads the Washington Post should have strongly
  suspected that false premises underpinned the war. To find the Post's path-breaking stories,
  however, most of which were reported by Walter Pincus, readers had to thumb their way
  back to Page A20 or deeper."

 From http://lunaville.org/warcasualties/Summary.aspx

 Bart,

 How about doing disabled veterans a favor and ask all Democratic presidential hopefils
 to promise not to reduce present or future veteran's disability benefits?

 All the GOP mentions is "taking a look" at veteran's benefits, and we all know what that means.
 I think the candidate who promises to protect veteran's disability benefits would immediately be
 assured the present and future Veteran vote.

 Jack
 

 Jack, I think it is a CRIME that veterans have to ask for help after risking their lives,
 and then getting hurt, while fighting America's enemies so we can be safe and remain free.
 Taking care of disabled veterans should be our highest priority.
 

 "You mean higher than tax cuts for my super-rich friends?"

 The Illegal Punk has done his best to disable our disabled veterans and if we had a free press the nation
 would be outraged.  The bastards are rationing water for our soldiers in Iraq and they're losing weight.

 Did you hear that, America?
 Our soldiers are losing weight because they don't have enough Halliburton food and Halliburton water
 like they were on some goddamn TV show where you get voted off the island. This makes me sick.

 America should take care of our aging vets like they were our parents.

 Have a good time today - that's just a suggestion...
