"There have been many times I've regretted
it. When I look at those pictures of people
who have been killed in Iraq, I think,
'Maybe there wouldn't have been a war if I hadn't
gone to Miami-Dade. Maybe there hadn't
have been, in my view, an unjustified war if
Bush hadn't become president.' It's
very disturbing to me."

GOP - Ship
of fools
as seen in The Economist
Excerpt:
Another reason is the degeneracy of the conservative
intelligentsia itself, a modern-day version of
the 1970s liberals it arose to do battle with:
trapped in an ideological cocoon, defined by its outer fringes,
ruled by dynasties and incapable of adjusting
to a changed world. The movement has little to say about
today’s pressing problems, such as global warming
and the debacle in Iraq, and expends too much of
its energy on xenophobia, homophobia and opposing
stem-cell research.
In other words, the win again, the GOP has to
give up the hate.
But hate is all they've had since Reagan - how
can they re-tool?
Hate is their glue - without hate, they're just
non-Democrats.

Obama's kids Hanging with Bush Twins
Excerpt:
Barbara and Jenna Bush showed off their White
House rooms to Obama's daughters Tuesday
as Michelle Obama brought her kids and mom here
to check out schools and their living quarters.
The White House visit lasted about an hour, according
to Sally McDonough, a spokesman for Pickles.
Was this a good idea?

Quotes
"So now we're looking at Bill Clinton's senior
adviser as chief of staff; his wife as secretary of state;
his acting attorney general as AG;
his impeachment lawyer, Greg Craig, as counsel; his chief of staff,
John Podesta, as transition chief;
Gore's counsel, Lisa Brown, as staff secretary; and Gore's chief of
staff, Ron Klain, as Biden's chief
of staff. Boy, it's a good thing Hillary didn't get elected; she would
have just given us a recycled version
of the Clinton administration."
-- Howie Kurtz, (R-Punk-ass nancy-boy)

Note:
Kurtz had no problem with Der Monkey stacking
his administration
with the Bush 41 felons who excaped justice
via Poppy's pardons.
"I love the right's complaint about hiring
Clinton appointees. I suppose change would happen faster
if he staffed his administration with
small town mayors from sparsely populated states. As long as he
dictates the policy, change will happen
much faster by using seasoned pros who already know the job.
Look what happened under Bush with
his amateur cronies. Get real!"
--Bruce, Link

Experienced Democrats from Clinton's

This is pure Clinton hatred - nothing else.

Subject: Okie ignorance
Bart, I lived in Dallas most of my life but I
lived in OKC from 1996 – 2001.
What I observed is that most Okies are aggressively
ignorant.
They don’t want to hear anything new or from the
outside.
They were proud of The Daily Oklahoman being
named the worst newspaper in the
country because it came from the pointyheads
at the Columbia School of Journalism.
That old bastard Ed Gaylord (Daily Oklahoman publisher)
routinely censored the news.
If there really is an Invisible Cloud Being,
the bright side would be that Ed Gaylord is rotting in Hell.
What’s really sad, from your point of view, is
that I thought Tulsa was pretty progressive compared
to OKC (Philbrook, Gilcrease, etc.).
Your Pal,
Ken
Yes, Tulsa is called "The Paris of Oklahoma."
Compared to Tulsa, OK City is full of full-blown shit-kickers.
You're also right about how proud they are of being so f-ing backwards.
They know the whole country hates that prick Inhofe, but they keep sending
him back
because they know he hates Clintons, beaners, niggers, homos, slants,
gashes and Liberals.

Obama appointees quizzed on guns
Excerpt:
Obama’s transition team is asking potential appointees
detailed questions about gun ownership,
and firearms advocates aren’t happy about it.
The NRA has denounced the move, which has already
led one Republican senator to consider
legislation aimed at ensuring a president can’t
use an applicant’s gun ownership status to deny employment.
It’s just one question on a lengthy personnel
form — No. 59 on a 63-question list — but the furor over
the query is a vivid reminder of the intensity
of support for Second Amendment rights and signals the
scrutiny Obama is likely to receive from the
ever-vigilant gun lobby.
What's wrong with owning a gun?
Is he screening to be sure he GETS some gun owners?
Obama wants to be the president of all of us, right?
What about the hundred million gun owners?
No sense losing their support right off the bat, right?
I'm going to chalk this up to whore reporting.
If Obama makes this mistake, we'll help steer him straight :)

Quotes
"The Clintons simply drive some people crazy.
It's a clinical diagnosis. Obama may be picking
Hillary for this purpose. She can absorb
all the looney criticism from the right and he can go
about his business above the fray.
It's actually smart to give them someone else to hate.
And if the Clintons are good at anything,
it's being hated and successful at the same time.
Indeed, they seem to thrive on it."

Kissyface "Made Man" Status
Excerpt:
Lieberman's retention of his committee chairmanship
and caucus membership is all the proof we need
that a majority of the Senate Democratic Caucus
finds nothing objectionable to a member actively
campaigning for the Republican nominee for president,
live and in person. It doesn't matter that Lieberman
dismissed the Democratic nominee's qualifications
to be president. Could they be any more obvious?...
He does well by his friends. When the Enron scandal
broke and tens of thousands lost billions in that
pyramid scheme, Lieberman's Senate committee
was in charge of investigating...Lieberman delivered.
There was no serious investigation of Enron by
the Senate. The people were without an advocate.
All we got was a wink and a nod paving the way
for the latest corporate thefts. This is the best clue
to Lieberman's morality and philosophy, the same
morality and philosophy endorsed by the Democrats
who welcomed him back to their "party" with open
arms.
This was Obama's decision.
Are we going to do to Obama what we did to Clinton?
Are we going to beat him up before he even gets to the White House?
Can't we give the guy a chance?
He's going to make 10,000 decisions the first year.
Can't we hold our fire until we see what kind of job he's doing?
If we don't respect his decisions, why should America?
How did I get in a party of ungrateful whiners?

Bart, you wrote:
> I assume we'll disagree on this, but I think
it's the right move.
> Obama can move foreward or he can start
a fishing expedition into the past.
So in your take of rule of law precedent has no meaning?
I didn't say that.
I said the time to arrest the crooks is at the
scene of the crime.
Pelosi should be impeached for letting the Bush
bastards run wild for years.
What you propose is the establishment of precedent
that will give future individuals in authority
at any level of government the ability to do
as they please, ignore subpoenas, torture fellow citizens,
incarcerate at will, spend off budget on the
‘company’ credit card and ad nauseum break the laws of the land.
Where does it stop my friend?
It stops when Pelosi does her goddamned job.
You should be angry with her, not Obama and certainly
not me.
Screw fishing into the past…that is a ruse and
a vacuous rationale because he owns both houses of Congress.
The most pressing mandate Obama has is to reestablish
the tenants, precedents and spirit of our Constitution.
If he ignores the past travesties, he garners
those powers for himself and for his successors.
There is no other way to look at it if we desire
to maintain a civilized society.
Obama didn't run on a promise to make those bastards
pay.
He ran on a promise to move the country forward.
He said he wanted to be a different kind of politician,
yet some want him to be Mr. Revenge and I think
that's a mistake.
If Obama appoints some commission to investigate
Bush crimes - fine.
But he's got more important things to do than
looking backwards.
One of your readers observed that you deserve
commendation for helping many of us
maintain our sanity over the past ten years…I
completely concur…except for the above!!
Chris in Nevada
Nobody wants those bastards to pay more than I do.
So let's impeach Pelosi and that will set the precedent that if you
ignore
real crimes where people are raped, kinapped, tortured and killed
then you will be replaced by someone who will enforce
the law.
Pelosi should be forced out of office for green-lighting Bush's crimes.

Subject: Re: Quotes (God-obsessed, libtarded, "atheistic," asshats)
bartcop,
Just another quote
from another God-obsessed, libtarded, "atheistic" asshat.
Does anyone know exactly why "atheists" are fixated
on the subject of theology?
Is it normal for someone to dwell incessantly
on what they claim to believe is a lie?
"Atheists" dwell on the subject of God more than
southern baptists do.
Are "atheists" trying to convince themselves of
something?
Their behavior looks very suspicious.
Whoever wrote your quote is a completely God-obsessed,
libtarded, "atheistic" asshat,
a living example of invincible ignorance.
And the same jerk talks about closed-mindedness?
What a joke.
James in CA
James, no matter what, you and I don't need to be enemies,
but are you seriously trying to claim the logic mantle as a religious
man?
I see religious people as illogical by definition.
Doing things to please a non-existent cloud being is hardly rational.
All atheists wants to do is eradicate the crazy notion that God wants
us
to do X and Y and we'll burn in hell for eternity (Thanks God!) if
we disobey him.
To me, atheists just want more science and logic in our lives.
We see no difference in praying and asking a Magic 8 Ball for guidance.
When a plane crashes and 290 of the 300 people die, religious people
say
"God must've had a plan for those ten people,"
but an athieist wonders why
they don't say, "God must have wanted those 290 people dead,"
When you see religiously-insane, Oklahoma handjobs handling rattlesnakes,
don't you say to yourself, "How stupid and
illogical can some people be?"
That's how we see all religious people - as snake handlers without
the danger.
I'll bet you think it's crazy for Muslims to expect 72 virgins in their
afterlife,
but you see it as rational that God will welcome you to his giant cloud
city?
To me, that's as rational as "Step on a crack,
break your Momma's back."
No matter how many cracks you step on, your Momma's back will be just
fine.
The best way out of this is everybody gets to believe whatever they
want
but
we shouldn't saddle future generations with the crazy idea that there
is a God.
Like racism, religion needs to be fazed out.
I chose to follow logic and common sense and I invite you to join me.
