"I'll never stop fighting for you.
I'll never stop fighting to bring jobs back
to (Ohio).
I'll never stop fighting for an economy where
hard work is rewarded,
I'll never stop fighting for policies that
will help restore home values,
I'll never stop fighting to give our kids
the best education possible;
I'll never stop fighting to give every American
a fair shake.
I'll never stop fighting to protect you from
the kind of deceptive practices...
I'm fighting for a tough Consumer Financial
Protection Agency.
I'll never stop fighting to open up government.
I'll never stop fighting to cut waste and
abuse in Washington;
I'm going to keep up the fight for real, meaningful
health insurance reforms.
I'll continue fighting for reform that will
hold the insurance industry accountable."

Karl Rove & Jeff Gannon - lovers?
Excerpt:
Gawker suggests that with his wife out of the
way, Rove “can finally gay marry Jeff Gannon, in Argentina.”
Gannon was the fake reporter who was mysteriously
given a pass to sit in on White House press briefings
to ask right-wing softball questions for two
years. He was eventually unmasked as a Republican plant — which
would have been filed away as business as usual
for the Bushies, except that this plant had a second career as
a male prostitute whose nom de ho was
Bulldog.
.
Looks like the Bush administration was all homosexual
lovers all the time.
Was there no straight sex in the White House
for eigth years?

Quotes
"Air America is gone. I got a lot out of AA
during the dark Dubya years. But they switched
to an all-Obama, all-CDS format, and
that's when I said adios. If I want to hear endless chants of
'Clinton bad, Clinton bad, Clinton
bad' I'll turn on cable news. They alienated much of their audience.
Now they're gone. The lesson: Clinton-phobia
can be a fatal disease."
-- Joseph Cannon,
Link
Air America told thousands of Clinton lies in 2008.
Maybe theye were owned by the right-wing, after all.

Subject: Obama
Obama never was a leader, he's a facilitator.
Read his book "Dreams of my Father".
His entire career as a community organizer was
based on representing the weak against
the strong and never having leverage. He had
to compromise constantly to get a park here
or a job training center there.
Now he has a hammer but has no idea how to use
it.
He can be taught but this takes a lot of time
grasshopper.
Joe in Hawaii
I could teach him how to say,
"Blow me, that's not going to happen.
And if you challenge me on this I'll cut your legs off"
in mere minutes.

Paul Harvey, FBI Tool
Excerpt:
He was an FBI target whose network bosses fretted
about whether he should be fired.
Paul Harvey's FBI file shows how his relationship
with the bureau evolved from perp to pen pal.
The file illuminates how the FBI cultivated one
of the nation's most perverted horse molesters by not
only providing flattery from its most prominent
officials but also by secretly putting words in his mouth.
Harvey frequently gave the FBI advance copies
of his scripts and columns, seeking information and advice.
The FBI obliged, even writing portions of Harvey's
commentaries for him.
I always knew he was a crooked bastard and a liar
in a party of liars.

Coakley
won the Hand Count
But those Diebold machine say Brown won
Excerpt:
You have a right to know that Coakley won the
hand counts there.
That's right.
According to preliminary media results by municipality,
Martha Coakley won overall
in its hand counted locations,* with 51.12% of
the vote (32,247 hand counted votes)
to Brown's 30,136, which garnered him 47.77%
of hand counted votes. Margin: 3.35% lead for Coakley.
Massachusetts has 71 hand count locations, 91
ES&S locations, and 187 Diebold locations,
with two I call the mystery municipalities (Northbridge
and Milton) apparently using optical scanners.
Coakley spent who knows how many millions trying to get Ted's chair
but her team didn't bother to see if the vote would be counted correctly.
Democrats - we can't learn.
Note: Best thing ever happened to GOP voting is Bev Harris, the
"Democrat"
who acts so crazy when she says they rig elections - but she can't
say how.
This might be coming from her so who knows if it's true.

Subject: Pigboy's ratings
While Rush may be one of the most listened to individuals, a look at the numbers shows some interesting things.
In Fresno, Rush typically has 9-11% of the 25-54
year old Average Quarter Hour radio audience,
which is more than any of the other 75 plus radio
signals reaching the Fresno market. However if you look
at the inverse of that number, you'll see that
Rush has about 90% of the radio audience that does NOT listen to him.
Also. here is a set of typical ratings numbers.
Age group Percent
listening to Rush
12-17
0.05
18-34
3.6
25-54
10.1
45-54
13.3
50-64
18.3
55-64
19.5
65-74
22.0
75+
31.8
Meaning the closer you are to senility or death,
the more likely you listen to Rush.

Subject: New Israel?
Bart,
I live in southern Arizona. It is a beatiful
place.
We have lots of racial diversity, mostly between
whites and latinos.
The one thing we don't need is a bunch of hypcrite
jews coming in here
and taking over in the name of their false god,
jehovah.
They can stay where they are, over there in Palestine,
where they can go on killing and being killed
until the end of time.
Please leave southern Arizona out of it!
Arizona Native
Wait, let me get this straight:
You're OK with Mexicans (who are Catholic, mostly)
but you draw the line at Jews with their false God, Jehova.
So Arizona is for those who believe in the real God?
And people worshipping all those other false gods should stay
away?
What about Blacks - are they allowed in?
What about Krauts and Wops? Or, Koresh forbid, the Irish?
What about Haitians?
What if you're a Mexican Jew who no longer believes?
Then we have the gays - is there room for them?
What about stupid people, or people with too many freckles?
What about a gay Mexican with a Jewish wife who passes for Italian?
Do you have a heirarchy chart?
I'd love to see where you put the Puerto Ricans.

Subject: just one more thing
Dear Bart,
Bubelah. I sense I touched a nerve, and
then a quick internet search let me know (at least
according to the bastion of learning; Wikipedia)
that you are an ardent anti-Zionist and tend to
piss off your liberal Democrat Jewish readers
by suggesting that the Israelis all move to Oklahoma.
Oye, if only that opportunity had been offered
to them earlier.
B.L.L.
Wikipedia doesn't say that - it says, "Bart
criticizes Zionist Jews for putting
a higher priority on their "sacred sand" than
on the lives of their children."
Look here - wikipedia got it sorta right.
I didn't criticize "Zionist Jews."
I criticized anyone who'd chose religion over their child's safety.

Twelve hours driving alone...
That's why Friday's page was kinda short - I had a lot of driving to
do.
Being alone on the road gives you lots of time to think about things
and I,
as you'd expect, came up with a bunch of good ideas!
Obama's numbers are still falling and he still seems to
not get that he's in serious trouble
but if he ever gets it, I have an idea that could be a game-changer
for him, and us.
Obama should announce that he's going to do three town halls and the
only people
allowed to attend are crazy-ass teabagging handjobs and right-wing
Rethug fuckstix.
Oh, and every fourth question would be from a FOX News pundit.
Make the town halls long, too - maybe three hours each.
Give every ass-wipe teabagger a chance to ask his idiotic question.
Here's the trick:
Obama is a cool and calm guy and he can answer any question they ask.
But you just know it's going to devolve into a wild, screaming monkeyfest.
They'll scream "Fuck you, nigger, get out of
our WHITE House" and bedlam
will break out and the Secret Service will have to whisk Obama away
to safety
Once that happens, America will see that the violently anti-Obama handjobs
can't be reasoned with and he'll gain some sympathy points from sane
folk.
Plus, he can then announce that the next two town halls are cancelled
because there's
no pleasing a pack of screaming, crazy teabagging handjobs and he has
a new platform
from which he can dismiss all this bi-partisan crap because now, as
everybody knows,
you can't reason with a pack of barking, rabid dogs.
It's another fool proof idea from Bartcop.
At worst, the teabaggers will act polite, and ask polite questions and
Obama will
reply with true and accurate calmness and they might actually learn
something.
But you just know it's going to get out of hand and that's where
he scores BIG.
It will prove to the national TV audience that it's the crazies who
hate him.
Winning is easy - you just have to try.
...ain't nothing to it.

How Obama
lost his way
by Bob Parry
Excerpt:
Obama spent his first year in office trying to
reassure the Washington/New York establishments that he
was not going to upset their apple carts too
much, that they shouldn’t panic, that he would – despite all
the speeches – be more about continuity than
change.
And he succeeded. The big banks were pulled back
from the brink; the auto industry survived; the stock markets
rebounded; a new Great Depression was averted;
the national security elites praised Obama’s more nuanced rhetoric
as he continued many of George W. Bush’s war
policies..
Yet the first major political judgment on Obama’s
“responsible” behavior came from Massachusetts
when a little-known right-winger was chosen by
the voters to fill Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat.
It turned out that what Obama had accomplished
politically in his first year was to associate
himself and the Democratic Party with the widely
despised national establishments.

Discount Airline Tickets
Let's try this again because I need to raise some money:
It didn't work before, probably due to my ineffective salespitch.
This would be perfect for two people needing a sudden,
expensive flight.
If there's two of you and your flight is sudden and expensive
this is perfect for you.
Example:
If you're in Los Angeles and you have to take a sudden trip to New
York
even Southwest is going to slam you for $1900
and I could save you, say, $500.
Example:
If you're in San Jose and you have to take a sudden trip to New Orleans
Southwest is going to slam you for $1700
and I could save you, say, $400.
I've given/traded tickets before so I know this works.
But it's only for a sudden, long trip for two.
If you're in Austin and need to get to Dallas for Cinco de Mayo,
this deal's not for you.
Somebody's going to suddenly have a need for a pair of tickets.
I can help and save you money..

Manchurian
Candidates
Court allows China, others stake in US elections
by Greg Palast
Excerpt:
The Court's decision is far, far more dangerous
to U.S. democracy. Think: Manchurian candidates.
I’m losing sleep over the millions - or billions
- of dollars that could flood into our elections from ARAMCO,
the Saudi Oil corporation’s U.S. unit; or from
the maker of “New Order” fashions, the Chinese People’s
Liberation Army. Or from Bin Laden Construction
corporation. Or Bin Laden Destruction Corporation.
Right now, corporations can give loads of loot
through PACs. While this money stinks (Obama took none of it),
anyone can go through a PAC’s federal disclosure
filing and see the name of every individual who put money into it.
And every contributor must be a citizen of the
USA.
But under today’s Supreme Court ruling that corporations
can support candidates without limit, there is
nothing that stops, say, a Delaware-incorporated
handmaiden of the Burmese junta from picking a
Congressman or two with a cache of loot masked
by a corporate alias.
