"I join the students, faculty, and staff of
Liberty University and Americans mourning the loss
of Reverend Jerry Falwell, but nobody got
screwed worse than me on this. I kissed his ass
in public because he promised to campaign
for me - hard - and now I got nothing. I ain't got
no religio-frauds on board, I ain't got no
campaign cash and I'm down to 9 percent in the polls."

Falwell's
Deal with the Devil
by Robert Parry
Excerpt:
Falwell's death will elicit eulogies on the good
he did, even while acknowledging some hurtful actions,
such as blaming gays and civil libertarians for
9/11. But there is another little-known chapter of Falwell's career:
his collaboration with a Korean cult leader bent
on transforming the United States into a theocracy.
Like other prominent Republicans, Falwell entered
into a behind-the-scenes alliance with Rev. Sun Myung Moon
even as the self-proclaimed Messiah was denouncing
America as "Satan's harvest" and vowing to incorporate the
United States into a worldwide theocratic empire
that would eradicate all individuality.
Falwell sought to conceal his relationship with
Moon, sometimes denying (falsely) that he had benefited from
Moon's financial help or that he had been photographed
with the cult leader.
Falwell's acceptance of Moon's mysterious money
was first disclosed at Consortiumnews.com in fall 1997
when Falwell was facing potential financial ruin.
In 1995, his Liberty University facing bankruptcy. Then, out of
the blue, money became available through a small
non-profit organization to buy up a large chunk of the school's debt.
"Damn,
that Moon money
saved my bankrupt ass."
Green Zone
no longer safe
People die in line for the movies there
Excerpt:
As rocket and mortar attacks on the heavily fortified
Green Zone in Baghdad injure more and more people,
U.S. Embassy employees "are growing increasingly
angry over what they say are inadequate security precautions."
Recent attacks have killed six people, including
two U.S. citizens.
In spite of the attacks, embassy employees complain,
most staff members still sleep in trailers that one described
as "tin cans" that offer virtually no protection
from rocket and mortar fire. The government has refused to harden
the roofs
because of the cost, one employee said.
Bush stole so much of that money there's nothing left for safety.

Bart, you wrote:

> why didn't a single Dem senator filibuster
the vote to authorize Bush to use force?
Because they are what you always said they were "Pink Tutu Democrats."
Many, many people knew Bart.
Don't try to obfuscate the facts to save "Her"
butt.
She knew too, but she was scared just like the
rest of them.
So, you know what was in her mind that day.
You'd be hell at a poker table - you'd make millions a week.
None of them should be forgiven, but any of them
is better than the current regime.
Ask Russ Feingold if he knew. Why did he
know and not anybody else?
If they did not know, they are too stupid to
be president.
I knew, and I am no genius.
If Feingold knew, why didn't he have the courage to filibuster?
Why was it the new girl's job to fight when all the elders stood their
quaking?
Come on Bart, we'll fight for her or whoever the
nominee is in the end,
but there is a lot about her not to like.
Not apologizing is a big one.
Horse hockey.
You just want to see her beg and she's denying you that satisfaction.
I find it odd that so many Democrats have wood to watch her grovel
and beg and apologize.
Many Democrats want that more than they want to win next year.
How did I get in this party - the party that doesn't really want to
win?
Still love you man (most of the time)

Tortureboy's
expense
How long will Bush keep him on?
Excerpt:
If Tortureboy Gonzales clings to his job much
longer, he may end up as the only one left
at the Justice Department. By resigning on Monday,
Deputy AG Paul McNulty joined Gonzales's
chief of staff, Kyle Sampson; the department's
White House liaison, Monica Goodling; and Justice
official Michael Battle, who oversaw the dismissal
of federal prosecutors, on the list of Gonzalesites
who've left the building. At this point, the
number of U.S. attorneys dismissed for political reasons
still exceeds the number of Justice officials
who've left because of their involvement in dismissing
those attorneys or dissembling about it, but
the ratio is tightening almost daily.
Gonzales will go down as the most crooked Attorney general ever, and that includes Ed Meese.
Subject: that pesky war vote
Bart, you wrote:
> The answer is clearer than Lake Concha - they
didn't know.
> One can't argue with that conclusion - can one?
Actually one can.
There were some bright people at State and other
places who were not convinced,
and pointed out a lot of holes in the data used
to sway people (aluminum tubes, etc.)
But they were unable to convince a single senator
to stand up,
so I'm guesing the proof wasn't as cut-and-dried
'clear' as some claim.
However, there was clearly another way to approach
the vote at that time:
vote no because inspectors were on the ground.
If there were WMD's, they were in the country,
and no "immediate" threat to
our safety/security existed. That was pretty
plain for all to see.
Keep hammering.
Paul in Carolina
But they didn't vote to suddenly invade, remember?
They voted to give Bush authority "if needed," and he abused that.

Hope I don't become famous for all the wrong reasons because of that.
Tonight, though, cuz of nothin' else to do, me
and Mrs. Pipecover
decided to listen to show 117. And we both
liked it a lot.
Your commentary on economics was absolutely right on.
I'm a very intellijent guy.
And we both laughed our asses off at your "invasion of Ft. Dix" soliloquy...
Dude, a platoon can defeat a military base
if there are enough virgins waiting.
As it happens, when I came home from work the

The things I said were a close to what you said,
we were both laughing out loud.

Jerry Falwell - Snake Handler
Excerpt:
Jerry Falwell is dead, possibly of a heart attack.
I wish that I could be respectful of Falwell,
to not verbally molest the dead. But after all
the nuclear-tipped potshots that I've taken at Falwell
over the years, don't you think that would be
a teensy weensy bit hypocritical? So I'll shelve the
sackcloth and ashes for the infamous televangelist
who'd founded the Moral Majority, the well-dressed
snake handlers who'd slithered their way into
Reagan's White House and helped establish the foundation
for the Christopathic movement we see running
the government today.
Don't you have to be from Oklahoma to be a true snake handler?
Subject: Mitch the bitch
He said, "If the Iraqi parliament votes for us to leave, we'll be glad to comply with their request."
Didn't the American public express that exact

Whose pocket is he in? Shame on him!

Ashcroft:
Domestic Spying "Illegal"
Does Bush have to strangle a baby to get impeached?
Excerpt:
Bush intervened in March 2004 to avert a crisis
after Attorney General John Ashcroft, Director Bob Mueller
of the F.B.I. and others all threatened to resign,
a former deputy attorney general testified Tuesday.
Bush quelled the revolt over the program's legality
by allowing it to continue without Justice Department approval,
also directing department officials to take the
necessary steps to bring it into compliance with the law, according to
Congressional testimony by the former deputy
attorney general, James B. Comey.
So, Ashcroft the Insane forced Bush to ease back
on his crimes and we didn't even know it.

McNulty gets knife in the back
Excerpt:
The orders from the White House to any number
of embattled senior administration officials appear
to be the same: Hunker down, admit nothing, offer
no appearance of panic and whatever you do,
don't resign. The penalty for violating those
orders came more clearly into focus this morning.
Just hours after Deputy AG McNulty announced
his resignation, his boss publicly stabbed him in the back.
A sinking ship is mostly full of rats.

Subject: Hillary's war vote
I would argue that those who knew the truth voted
for the authorization to
cover their own political ass; to not be labeled
"soft" on terrorism.
What if you're 50/50 (which the senate was, 25-22,
I believe)
and voting one way would not be
a roadblock to the White House?
I also think that some, like Hillary, may not
have believed the risk was that great
or that war was imminent, but voted yes thinking
the pResident would keep his word
(that war was a last resort).
I think that's possible, too.
So, either they wore the pink tutu or were too
stupid to see the duplicity of the executive branch.
Which category would Hillary be in?
Love your site.
Funky P
She's in the "gonna be president" catagory, but you didn't answer the question.
If "everybody" knew, why didn't one of them stand
up?
Those
who voted against the war - why didn't they stand up?
"Knowing" Bush was lying and still failing to
filibuster must be a bigger crime
than thinking the president might be serious
about his mushroom cloud predictions?
I heard a Hillary interview and she said someone I would buy, you probably wouldn't.
She said she's been in that position (as a presidential
aide) when they president had
a specific agenda and didn't appreciate members
of congress challenging them something.
So maybe she gave Bush the benefit of the doubt,
talking about muchroom clouds and such.
And for the people who have 20.20 vision into the future,
maybe we should do a poker tournament next Wednesday, Nov 22?
I'd love to see your powers at work :)
19,000 Iraqis Disappear Into U.S.-Run Prisons
Excerpt:
At the time, they noted roughly 14,000 Iraqis
were being held in a "legal vacuum." A large portion of the persons
held were taken in on sweeps through their neighborhoods
and were suspected and charged with nothing. No trials
occur, but the detainees languish often for many
months - in some cases for more than a year. "They may not be
enemies when they enter these prisons," one officer
told me, "but you can count on it that they are when they leave."
He was alluding not just to the treatment standards,
which he called "nothing I would be proud of as an American,"
but the fact that the facilities are allowed
to function as recruitment and training centers for the insurgents. Politically
uninvolved Iraqis enter. But to find a way of
surviving in the brutal gang reality of the prisons, they cast their lot
with
insurgent groups.
We need a graphic of Osama putting the Top Recruiter Medal around Bush's neck.

"In 1994, that Falwell bastard released the
documentary "The Clinton Chronicles."
This fake video connected Bill Clinton to
a theoretical conspiracy involving Vince Foster,
James McDougal, Ron Brown, and an alleged
cocaine-smuggling operation. Despite the
theory's having been discredited by all major
investigations, the video's sophisticated
production techniques served as effective
exposure, and sold over 150,000 copies."

help from Bart
Jerry Falwell was a liar, a thief, a whore and
a fraud.
It was impossible for him to tell the damn truth.
I hope the Devil gave a him a seat - near his
throne.
Subject: Falwell in hell?
Bart,
I almost hope that there is a heaven, and that
Jerry Falwell has
mistakenly found himself in the gay section,
with no right to appeal.
But then, why should I wish that on all the gay
people in heaven?
Because, really, that would be hell.
Dogfolks
Falwell truly was a negative for this world.
I heard a speech on Randi Rhodes yesterday, he was talking about "decadence"
from his mansion on his 5,000 acre campus
- the bastard thought he was God,
but God's never been all that interested in stealing money.

Oh Right, We're Still At War
Excerpt:
What is wrong with us? Where is our outrage?
Where is the pain and wailing and the candlelight vigils?
Why has it become so easy to let Iraq turn into
this numb, forgettable, boring thing, a blip in media, a sad yawn
in your day? Yes, maybe you heard all that and,
like many Americans, reacted by saying, well yes, Iraq is awful
and all, but it's a war, and like it or not,
kids are supposed to die in wars, in unspeakable and unrecorded and
unbloggable ways, it's understandable and acceptable
and even (tragically, morbidly) expected, whereas that's
not supposed to happen in a nice upscale college
where most kids can keep their nervous rage in check with
iPods and drugs and beer bongs and lousy recreational
sex.
I heard it again, yesterday.
The mothers of one of the five killed (where
3 were kidnapped) said,
"He died doing what he loved,"
which has never made any sense to me.
If I fell over dead while writing this page, do
you think I'll look down from Heaven
at my lifeless ass on the floor and say, "At
least I died doing what I loved?"
Hell no, I wouldn't be happy about it one damn
bit.
Worse, the kid who died was maybe 20 years old.
Let's stop
celebrating Bush's insatiable oil greed.
Let's stop
saying, "Oh well, at least..."
each time a kid dies in Iraq.
Subject: Paris Hilton
Bart, it's like you're defending Ms. Hilton a
bit too much.
(withheld)
I guess I kinda am.
People hate her f-ing guts with all their
heart, and all their soul,
and when you ask why, they say,"She
thinks she's so great."
The other night, Dave said,
"So, ...Paris Hilton's going to jail,"
and the roar of applause was almost like that
day Oprah gave cars away.
What makes people so eager to see someone taken
down?
What makes people so eager to see someone "get
theirs?"
Who did Paris Hilton ever hurt?
I'm looking for the link between her and Hillary,
who also never hurt anybody.
Why do people get sooooo worked up about hating
someone they don't know?
Even the vulgar Pigboy - I mostly laugh at him
and ridicule him.
But I don't get worked up about hating him 24/7.
(Murdering scum like Bush/Cheney/OJ Simpson -
that's a whole different thing)
Besides Michael DelGiorno, (and that was a bit
for the show) when have you ever
seen/heard me put a bunch of energy into getting
worked up about hating someone?
Compared to some of those extreme nut-cases,
I'm the president of the Tiger Woods Fan Club.
