"Bush asked some practical questions about
how things worked, but he did not offer or hint at his desires.
The Joint Chiefs' staff had placed
a peppermint at each place. Bush unwrapped his and popped it into his mouth.
Later he eyed Cohen's mint and flashed
a pantomime query, Do you want that? Cohen signaled no, so Bush
reached over and took it. Near the
end of the hour-and-a-quarter briefing, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs,
Army Gen. Henry H. Shelton, noticed
Bush eyeing his mint, so he passed it over."

Draft
dilemma
The draft is coming but it's such a vote loser, no one wants
to mention it
Excerpt:
There is pending legislation in the House
and Senate which will time the program's
initiation so the draft can begin at early
as Spring 2005 -- just after the 2004 election.
The administration is
quietly trying to get these bills passed now, while the public's
attention is on the elections, so our action
on this is needed immediately.
Dodging the draft will be more difficult
than those from the Vietnam era.
College and Canada will not be options.
In December 2001, Canada and the U.S. signed
a "smart border declaration,"
which could be used to keep would-be draft
dodgers in. This plan, among other things,
eliminates higher education as a shelter
and includes women in the draft.
So, Bush is going to steal this election,
lock all the exits and force YOU at gunpoint
to invade the countries that have oil
or refuse to let him build a pipeline there, as he
did with Iraq and Afghanistan and the
Democrats are helping him do this with their
silence and their refusal to insist
on fair and legal elections with a paper trail.

Decry U.S. Over President Choice
CIA/BFEE stooge not the 'sovereignty' the Iraqis had in mind
Excerpt:
Iraqi Governing Council members accused
American officials Monday of pressuring them
to accept Bush's choice for Iraq's new
president, prompting a delay in the announcement
of a new government to take power from
the U.S.-led coalition June 30.
Most council members favor civil engineer
Ghazi Mashal Ajil al-Yawer, 45, the current council president.
The BFEE is backing their employee, former
foreign minister Adnan Pachachi, 81. Both are Sunni Muslims.
Subject: Actions speak louder than words
I've always believed that it's not what
you say that matters - it's what you do.
Although the Catholic Church claims to
be against priests raping children, their actions tell a different tale.
Archbishop Bernard Law who covered up the
raping of children by priests in Boston has now been
transfered to the Vatican. This sends a
message that the Catholic Church is more interested in protecting
the careers of the clergy that protecting
Catholic children from being raped by priests.
Although the Church gives lip service saying
that priests should not have sex with children - what they are
doing speaks louder than what they are
saying. So when the church says that some politicians aren't fit to
take communion because of their stance
on abortion - I say that the Catholic Church isn't fit to give communion
based on their stance on allowing priests
to have sex with children. Any religion that allows child rape has
no moral authority to take a stand on anything.

Targets Online Casinos by Seizing Cash
Instead of chasing terrorists they go after small businesses?
Excerpt:
The money initially belonged to Tropical
Paradise, a Costa Rica-based Internet casino operation,
which in October paid Discovery for television
spots to advertise an online poker room, ParadisePoker.com.
According to court documents, the government
seized the money and told Discovery, which is based in
Silver Spring, Md., that it could be party
to an illegal activity by broadcasting such advertisements.
"This is not drug money or terrorist money," said
Rodney A. Smolla, dean of the University of Richmond
School of Law. "The fact it is being treated
as such shows a crusader's zeal against offshore gambling.".
Republicans lie when they say they want

fail to regain control of oil revenue
"No oil revenues for YOU!" screams Bush to Iraq
Excerpt:
The latest Iraqi attempts to recover control
of the country's oil revenues from the United States
appear to have hit a dead end with a special
delegation being rebuffed in its bid secure UN help.
The delegation has been in New York in a
bid to petition the UN to exert pressure on US occupation
authorities, who currently preside over
Iraq's oil output. The US has imposed secrecy on oil deals,
exportation, and use of revenues. Iraqi
officials have previously asked for access to oil revenues,
but have been turned down by the occupation
Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) headed by Paul Bremer.
"A daylight robbery is going in Iraq. I have first
hand information from sources in al-Bakr port in southern Iraq,
and in the Turkish port of Jihan, confirming
that three million oil barrels are being taken out of Iraq on a daily basis"
al-Dulaymi said.
If you've been reading bartcop.com this is really

Bush has been stealing that $2.4B each month and telling
Iraq to go to hell on the accounting.
This is why we invaded in the first place and they're not giving
up that revenue.

Excerpt:
The White House budget office recently
issued guidelines to federal agencies currently planning
for the 2006 budget. Those guidelines require
substantial spending cuts for almost all domestic
programs aside from homeland security,
although that supposed Republican priority will be cut as well.
Spending on education, so often promoted
by Bush as the hallmark of his domestic agenda, would
nearly eliminate last year's $1.7 billion
increase. The highly successful Women, Infants, and Children
nutrition program would lose more than
$100 million, leaving many poor families without assistance.
Head Start, another successful program
that provides early childhood education to deprived children,
is slated to lose $177 million, or 2.5
percent of its total budget.
Sacrifices have to be made to pay for Bush's disasterous tax cut
and disasterous war bungling.
Who's going to pay for that? The poor and the middle class,
but the rich get off scott free again.

The Christian Right needs to look at Bush and decide "What

I imagined George W. Bush as the mean little
kid who got his kicks by pulling legs off of grasshoppers,
but I was wrong. Young George preferred
sticking firecrackers in frogs' mouths (wrong)
and watching them explode
(NYTimes, 5/21/00).
Put this together with a couple of DUIs,
some questionable business dealings and a spotty military record,
and you don't exactly have the resume of
the leader of the free world. Fortunately for him, Bush doesn't
have to worry about his past indiscretions
because he has been "born again".

President Bush keeps in his White House

Saddam held when soldiers pulled him from

Military specialists mounted the sidearm,
and soldiers who helped in Saddam's

adjoining the Oval Office.

Subject: Ralph Nader and the Constitution
Dear Bartcop:
Doesn't Ralph Nader have the Constitutional
right to run for President?
Yes, he also has the right to help elect Bush.
I don't think that Justice Scalia has abrogated
that section of the document...yet.
You can't claim that Nader cost Gore the
election.
Sure I can - because it's true.
You can't claim that Nader will cost Kerry the election.
I can only guess at the future, but the past is clear.
If the demos can't win an election outright
on what they campaign on...
they need to just shut up and figure out
why they are such losers.
They could win if they'd try, but they're too afraid to try.
John Kerry offers America absolutely nothing
different from George Bush.
We should elect another clone? We should
elect another "stay the course" puppet?
Are you from Planet Earth?
Kerry and Bush are clones?
Do you feel the same about up and down?
The demos had Howard Dean, Wesley Clark,
Dennis Kucinich, and even Al Sharpton
offered something different. In the final
analysis, the demos offer the same old, same old.
Nothing new and dynamic or worthy of support.
If you want Bush to complete his destruction
of America, just say so, but it's illogical
to say all the candidates are the same
as the worst president in American history.
I can't support Kerry, he is simply Bush-lite.
I will probably vote for the Libertarian but,
I live in Utah and my vote won't count
anyway. On the issue of Kerry vs. Nader,
we are going to have to agree to disagree.
peace bro,
Don N
My opinion is that you're either with Bush or against him.
As of today, Kerry is the only person in America who can push
Bush off his throne.
Voting for anyone but Kerry is a vote for Bush, but I understand
the Utah thing.
I live in Oklahoma so my votes never count.

Taken from their homes, Iraqi men are jailed for no

Excerpt:
Consider the case of mechanic Salahadul
Karem. He was sitting in his Baghdad home
with his family last winter when the U.S.
Army swept through his neighborhood in Humvees.
"They arrested everyone," he says - every man
at least. Karem says he was taken away along
with his elder brother and his 14-year-old
brother who suffers from severe mental retardation.
Most neighbors were also taken away and
incarcerated at a nearby U.S. military base for questioning.
Iraqis taken to Abu Ghraib are not given
trials where they can prove their innocence, or even where
guilt could be established. They are simply
arrested, incarcerated, and interrogated by occupation forces.
Exactly how are we spreading "freedom and democracy" in Iraq?

The
truth about soaring gas prices
by Arianna Huffington
Excerpt:
At the same time car owners are having
to consider taking out a second mortgage in order
to fill up their tanks, oil companies are
raking in record profits. ConocoPhillips, for example,
the United States' largest oil refiner,
recently reported its largest first quarter profits ever.
And Exxon Mobil just posted its highest
first quarter refining earnings in 13 years.
Coincidentally, these companies and their
oil and gas industry brethren have a highly profitable
habit of greasing the receptive palms of
their friend George Bush -- doling out over $3.5 million
to his 2000 and 2004 presidential runs.
Bush doesn't even try to hide the fact that he's on the take.
Since the Democrats refuse to say anything, and the press plays
along,
he can loot America until there's nothing left to steal.

No
responsibility in Bush's fantasy world
by Michael Hammerschlag
Excerpt:
Nobody should be surprised at the prisoner
torture scandal- we all knew it from the first shocking pictures
of the shackled hog-tied hooded Afghan
prisoners in Guantanamo. We are all guilty. This was sensory
deprivation torture, along with denying
sleep- the easiest way to break someone. Do we do that? I thought.
Well, OK- maybe for those fanatic Taliban
terrorists. But the Bushmen were already promulgating these
brutal procedures throughout the military,
carefully inoculating themselves by rejecting the World Court and
forcing governments to grant immunity to
our troops for the atrocities that were planned. When you say
prisoners have no rights: no right to be
judged, no advocate, no appeal, no hope, no future- torture is the
inevitable result. After all, these aren't
humans- these are creatures with no rights- whom are they going to
complain to? Now they say 37 prisoners
have died in our custody. There is torture in every war, but not
on orders from the top. We are supposed
to be better than that.

Bush Thanks Veterans, Then Cuts Their Health Care
Excerpt:
Late last week, the Administration released
a memo detailing a plan to cut $1 billion from the Veterans Administration
in the first budget of its second term.
The cut would come even after the White House has tried to close veterans
hospitals throughout the country, and has
proposed veterans health care budgets that have been criticized by veterans
groups and the President's own Veterans
Affairs secretary.4 It also comes after the president decided to cut off
164,000
veterans from their existing prescription
drug coverage, and threatened to veto any bill that would allow veterans
to receive
both the military pension they were promised,
and any disability compensation to which they are entitled.
Yet most veterans love Bush and would gladly march over a cliff
for him,
while hating Clinton for having a girlfriend and bringing us
peace and prosperity.
Subject: Bill Nevins
Dear BartCop,
I recently read an article on your site
about the New Mexico High School teacher that was fired for
not censoring his students. I sent the
article from activism now to my sister, the Republican. She is a
consumate know-it-all and older than me
to boot. She took great pride in giving me the letter written
by a Courtney from New Mexico regarding
the story. Apparently it was NOT true the way the story claims.
What does "giving me a letter by a Courtney in New Mexico" mean?
The teacher was fired, but not for that,
and now he is making the story on your site what it was about.
The student claims that her freedom of
speech was never challenged or silenced in any way. The principal
did check the poem to make sure it did
not have anything in it that would incite violence or have obscenity included.
I just wanted you to know about this and
maybe you could put something on your site regarding the truth instead.
I felt like a complete moron when I received
her email, I could feel the sarcasm know-it-all tone of voice in it as
well.
I love your site, keep making me laugh

Nikki, did she send you a URL from a trustworthy site?

U.S. seeks new exemption from war-crimes tribunal
Excerpt:
The United States wants to extend the exemption
of U.S. peacekeepers from international prosecution,
but human rights groups said Thursday that
the prisoner abuse scandal showed America needs global oversight.
The Bush administration argues that the
world's first permanent war crimes tribunal -- which was established on
July 1, 2002 and started operating last
year -- could be used for frivolous or politically motivated prosecution
of American troops.
OR,
it could be used when petty tyrants with big armies thumb their nose at
the Geneva Convention
and wink when their troops are torturing and murdering probably-innocent
civilians behind prison walls.

Use of the word 'Victim' Barred at Bryant Trial
Excerpt:
District Judge Terry Ruckriegle said he
agreed with Bryant's lawyers that the term "victim"
implies guilt and should not be used at
trial. He said she must be referred to by name; or in
jury instructions, where she must be referred
to as "person."
The use of the term "victim" in the context
of the trial, Ruckriegle said, "could improperly suggest
that a crime had been committed such that
the presumption of innocence might be jeopardized."
In his ruling, Ruckriegle said there are
numerous definitions of "victim" in state law.
For his part, the judge said he will continue
to refer to the woman as alleged victim.
Y'know, they
could call her the plaintiff.
Wenster defines plaintiff as
"a person who brings a legal action."
That would seem accurate, don't you think?
