An assistant principal cautioned the girl's father against calling 911 to avoid
media attention, the statements said. The girl's father called police.

I realize "boys will be boys," but any boy who would force any girl, let alone a
girl confined to a wheelchair, to perform oral sex on him should have to endure
a jail term with an agressive, oversexed cellmate and be taught a lesson.

yes, I took my 2 little boys down to the firehouse where they were giving out
the sugar cubes with the vaccine in it. I had two worries: would the vaccine
work and would it make the kids sick (like other vaccines at the time did).
thanks to Dr. Younger they did not get sick or get polio.

I went to school with kids who had polio, one in a wheel chair, one with crumpled feet.
my parents wouldn't let my brother or me swim in public pools or go to carnivals or
wherever there was a crowd - because of polio.

hugs and kisses to you Dr. Younger

america, the country that tortures

Barbara, I'll be sure he sees that. As crazy as it sounds, swear to Koresh,
Dr Youngner has been known to take an occasinal glance at bartcop.com

Attention PittsburgHers: In the next few days, one of your local TV stations is
running a special on the 50th Anniversary of Dr. Youngner's kicking Polio's ass.
I really, really would like to see that TV special.

Could someone tape that and send me a nice clear copy?

Yes, Bart, I can

bart, i was insulted by the role cardinal law played in the pope-a-thon,
but this particular shame wasn't necessary to clearly see into the dark
heart of this catholic "hero". endorsing child rape is no worse than
banning condoms and damning millions to death by AIDS. i think i'd rather
live with memories of priest sex, instead of dying with AIDS. I don't know.

What henious pope crime would you prefer being victimized by?

it all sort of falls into place when one considers that this is the religion
chosen by Robert Novak. he converted to Catholicism. what else can one say?

Subject: Polio comment

Bart, I was a little boy in the first grade when I saw the headline in the Detroit Free Press.
It was in the super large font like we've only seen in old papers announcing the end of WWII.
"POLIO CONQUERED" it said.

My mom cried with joy. I knew it was big.
My bottle of Chinaco is empty but when I find another I'll join you in that shot to honor Dr. Julius.

Now if we spent money on research like the Republicans spend money on killingjust think what might be done.

Bob in Cadillac Michigan

Bob, thanks for that.
Also, I'm proud of the bartcop.com readers.
I didn't see one e-mail saying "Knock off the polio crap!"

Congress rejects proposal to investigate war profiteers
This way crooked companies like Halliburton can continue to steal

Click Here

Excerpt:
A U.S. Senate committee approved a proposal last night from Bush for an additional $80.5 billion
to fund the war in Iraq. At the same time, it voted against a proposal from Sen. Dorgan (D-ND) to
investigate the numerous allegations of fraud and profiteering by military contactors in Iraq.

At least ten military audits have criticized Halliburton's Iraq spending. Pentagon auditors reported
that 43 percent of the company's expenditures could not be verified by normal accounting procedures.
The Pentagon ignored the auditors' complaints and agreed to pay all the costs to Halliburton anyway..

Since Halliburton has official permission to loot the Treasury until the end of Bush's war (which is forever)
we can't really blame them. After all, stealing from Social Security is what Halliburton does - it's who they are.

A wake-up call for the Sane Majority
by Gene Lyons

Excerpt:

Vieira insisted, Kennedy upheld "Marxist, Leninist, satanic 
principles drawn from foreign law." 

And the solution? If not impeachment, Vieira said that his "bottom-line" 
solution for renegade judges was Stalin’s: "He had a slogan, and it worked 
very well for him, whenever he ran into difficulty: ‘No man, no problem.’" 

The audience reportedly didn’t gasp. They laughed. "‘No man, no problem,’" 
he repeated for emphasis. "This is not a structural problem we have. This 
is a problem of personnel." 

The Washington Post’s Dana Milbank supplied the full Stalin quote, which 
is quite famous: "Death solves all problems: No man, no problem." He 
speculated that Vieira couldn’t possibly be urging the killing of Supreme 
Court justices. But he put the remark in the context of recent threats by 
DeLay, who said that "the time will come for the men responsible for 
[Terri Schiavo’s death] to answer for their behavior," and Sen. John Cornyn, 
R Texas, who mused that unpopular judicial decisions could lead people to 
"engage in violence."
