Rove sets up camp to taunt Cindy
Is there any doubt who's behind this?

..

Excerpt:
A pro-war camp with a "Bush is God!" banner sprung up downtown Saturday,
countering the pro-soldiers rally started by Cindy Sheehan just outside Bush's fake ranch.

"If I have to sacrifice my whole family for the sake of our country and world, other countries
that want freedom, I'll do that," said the overly-dramatic Nancy Grace wannabe for the TV cameras.

Hey Nutcase, you ready to sacrifice your whole family for Cuba, too?
How about North Korea?
How about Iran?
How about Yemen?
How about Saudi Arabia?

Are you going to sacrifice your family until every human is free?
Or just the ones who are sitting on assets Bush and Halliburton can steal?

He said his 16-year-old son now wants to die for Halliburton and he supports that decision.

Bush says he sympathizes with Sheehan but won't change his busy schedule of bike riding,
raising money from BIG OIL, Play Station 2, raising money from BIG POLLUTERS, napping,
raising money from BIG RELIGION, playing with Barney and raising money from BIG TOBACCO.

What took so long for Rove to fund this and get it going?
Is he, ...distracted by his coming indictment?

Will Bush pardon Rove before the trial to hide the facts?
After he does, will the Democrats let that go, too?

''He had a little explosive device and boys like to see things go bang....
They'll find out Charlie Dreyling is a fine young man and no terrorist."
-- OK Republican Kirk Humphreys, on why it's OK for white Republicans
to smuggle a small bomb onto a commercial passenger flight Link

Excerpt:
I was a little irritated with the cab driver, but I wasn't really mad at him. He's just another poor guy
at the bottom of the food chain that has been convinced by the likes of Karl Rove that it's a good idea
to vote for the guy doing favors for the rich guys at the top.

No, what I was really pissed off about was that our endlessly vacationing president and his Chicken hawk
Cheney had clearly set their minions loose in an orchestrated effort to "swiftboat" the mother of a dead
U.S. soldier. Now that is what I call honoring the troops. Apparently deciding they couldn't publicly defend
their positions on the Iraq war, these brave guys who somehow managed to evade service in Vietnam, but have
no compunction about shipping the sons of the poor off to die in some foreign desert, did what they do best.
They went on the attack.

I guess the Democats are too busy to defend this woman?
How can they live with their cowardice?

Why are they leaving it to the web sites to defend Cindy Sheehan?

Excerpt:
Last week, the Bush motorcade sped by Cindy Sheehan on the way to a fundraiser, literally leaving her
and her fellow protesters in the Crawford dust. Sheehan, whose soldier son was killed in Iraq, was left
wanly waving her hand-lettered sign: "Why do you make time for donors and not for me?" She should
have known that this is how it works in America. Only those who fork over the big bucks can count on
getting an invitation to President Bush's Texas ranch. That's why Republican donors struggle to raise the
$200,000 needed to gain the coveted RNC honorific of "Ranger."...Sheehan donated her son's life
— and his lifetime earnings potential — to Bush, and he squandered both. She's not asking for a refund,
or a "Ranger" badge, or a favor for her oil company, just a meeting. Isn't she entitled to a few minutes
of her president's time?"

Gary Hart wrote years ago that all this would happen.
But he got the 'Clinton' press treatment years before the Big Dog
and no one has taken him seriously since.

The media ruined him.
They ruined Clinton.
They lick W's ass.

We're up shit creek and paying 2.70 per gallon to ride in it!
We really have seen the enemy and it really is us.

Having sex is worse than getting 2,000 soldiers killed, just ask any reporter.

Comments?

The war in Iraq has broken the back of our counter terrorism effort. I‘m not an expert on the threat
posed by Saddam Hussein, but the invasion of Iraq has made sure this war will last decades ahead
and it has transferred bin Laden and al Qaeda from being man and an organization into being a
philosophy and a movement.

We‘ve really made sure that the war against us is going to be a long and very bloody one.
Iraq was an absolutely disastrous decision.
Can you think of a worse presidential decision?

Richard P
Detriot

I guess Johnson's decision to escalate Vietnam is in the same league,
but we don't yet know how disasterous Bush's oil snatch will end up.

"Democrats used to tell people you have nothing to fear but fear itself.
Now they have nothing to offer but fear itself."
--head GOP ass Ken Mehlman, Link

"It is incidents like this that move me to atheism. That this man is not struck dead for
having the gall to make this statement is proof that God either doesn't exist or doesn't care.
The GOP has two products: Fear and tax cuts, and it uses fear to sell tax cuts."
--David Allen, on Ken Mehlman's statement, Link

Excerpt:
Police in Germany are hunting pranksters who have been sticking Bush flags into piles
of dog poo in public parks. Josef Oettl, parks administrator for Bayreuth, said:
"This has been going on for about a year. There must be 2,000 to 3,000 piles of excrement."

Excerpt:
As a lawyer in the Reagan White House, John Roberts (R-Women hater) scoffed at the notion of elevating
Sandra Day O'Connor to chief justice as a way to close a political gender gap, calling it a "crass political
consideration." On another topic, Roberts, who was nominated as a justice by Bush last month, advised
the White House to strike language from a description of a housing bill that referred to the "fundamental right
to be free from discrimination." He said that 'there of course is no such right.'"

I love the page. I've loved it since I first started reading it,
when I clicked the link on Media Whores Online.

A KS Dem. friend of mine had been writing about Bartcop and Rack Jite for months,
and I finally decided it was time to find out about Bartcop, since I saw plenty of Rack Jite
already on that KS Dem. list. I've been almost literally addicted since.

I don't care what you say about anyone, basically. If I don't like something, or I don't agree
with something (and I can't remember much like that,) I move on, because there's another
laugh or spot-on comment coming up. Bartcop.com has saved my political sanity more than once,
and I've "converted" people the same way I was--just writing about what I see on your page.

Lott Accuses Frist of 'Personal Betrayal'
Cat killer Frist a stab-in-the-back bastard, says Lott

Excerpt:
Trent Lott blames his fall from power in 2002 on a "personal betrayal" by an Bill Frist (R-Cat Killer)
his successor, adding in a new book that Bush, Powell and other GOP associates played roles.

He said Frist's actions were a "personal betrayal," since he had taken him"under my wing" in earlier years.

"If Frist had not announced exactly when he did, as the fire was about to burn out,
I would still be majority leader of the Senate today," Lott said in "Hurting Cats, A Life in Politics."

The fact that Henry's using Linux does not make any difference.
Two computers can communicate with each other, as long as they agree on the protocol.
What OS they are running is pretty much irrelevant.

Henry just needs to find an mp3 player program for Linux that can handle those.
That is all.

Saw "bartcop" in the credits of "Orwell Rolls in his Grave."
Reminded me of how important people like you are to
preserving the last bit of free press we have.

Hypocrites and Liars
by Cindy Sheehan

| Link

Excerpt:
Now I am being vilified and dragged through the mud by the righties and so-called "fair and balanced"
mainstream media who are afraid of the truth and can't face someone who tells it by telling any truth of their own.
Now they have to twist, distort, lie, and scrutinize anything I have ever said when they never scrutinize anything
that George Bush said or is saying.

Instead of asking George or Scotty McClellan if he will meet with me, why aren't they asking the questions they
should have been asking all along: "Why are our young people fighting, dying, and killing in Iraq?
What is this noble cause you are sending our young people to Iraq for? What do you hope to
accomplish there? Why did you tell us there were WMD's and ties to Al Qaeda when you knew
there weren't? Why did you lie to us? Why did you lie to the American people? Why did you lie to
the world? Why are our nation's children still in harm's way and dying everyday when we all know
you lied? Why do you continually say we have to 'complete the mission' when you know damn well
you have no idea what that mission is and you can change it at will like you change your cowboy shirts?"

Comments?

You know you've been reading too much Bartcop when you see this headline:

Tiger kills teen during photo pose

... and you think "What has that crazy golfer done now?????"

"Two US soldiers were killed today in Afghanistan.
That makes 57 KIAs since Bush went on vacation,
for an average of 3.3 deaths per vacation day."

Gonzo's farewell

Link

Excerpt:
Huster S. Thompson killed himself six months ago at his home near Aspen.
His ashes, intermingled with fireworks, were fired out of the tower Saturday
evening in front of a star-studded crowd at his Owl Farm compound.

"He loved explosions," said his wife, Anita Thompson.

"The BTK killer actually shed a tear or two during this sentencing hearing, this circus today.
That was on the outside. He had to be laughing hysterically on the inside. We, the news media
and the criminal justice system played right into his hands. A two-day sentencing hearing that
was televised live around the world after he'd already confessed. We ought to be ashamed of
ourselves. I'm a little embarrassed to be a part of the media on a day like this."
--Jack Cafferty, CNN Anchor, Link

If it wasn't for Wolf the whore, Jack Cafferty would be the biggest embarrassment at CNN.
He's the love child of Rush the vulgar Pigboy and Ann Coulter.
He hates blacks, he hates gays, he hates Democrats, he hates everything that's now pro-Bush.
He wouldn't know journalistic integrity if it bit him on the ass.

Sidebar:
Did CNN cancel Crossfire and Capital Gang to guarantee
that a left-leaning view would never be heard on that network?

"As long as the out-of-towners know their boundaries, everyone will get along fine, Nelson said.
"People just don't like other people on their property, infringing on their rights,"
--Sharon Nelson – Crawford resident

"It's like company. If you had your brother-in-law in your house for five days, wouldn't it start stinking up the place?"
"I just want them to pack their damn tents and go where they came from."
--Larry Mattlage – the guy who fired off his shotgun above the protestors.

You'd think these people would understand why the Iraqis are tired of American occupation.

Bart,

Don't forget where Hagel's coming from (and where he's wanting to go!).
He used to be ceo of voting machine manufacturing company, ES&S,
until he somehow (??) won a Nebraska senate race.

He's also been saying he'd like to be the next president, which will mean
he'll have to get rid of W first. (He already knows how to fix an election, though).

All the best,
allun’s

President Hagel would seem like a breath of fresh air after eight years
of these marauding oil men and their worldwide rape-and-pillage terror binge.

...but, maybe we can get a Democrat interested in tbeing president.
