Quotes
"This week, Arizona signed the toughest illegal
immigration law in the country which will allow
police to demand identification papers
from anyone they suspect is in the country illegally.
I know there’s some people in Arizona
worried that Obama is acting like Hitler, but could we
all agree that there’s nothing more
Nazi than saying "Show me your papers?" There’s never
been a World War II movie that didn’t
include the line "show me your papers." It’s their catchphrase.
Every time someone says "show me your
papers," Hitler’s family gets a residual check..."

Quotes
"Before the jabberers on the right, the yammerers
on the left and the chides in the media, look at the two
key metrics that underscore Obama’s
accomplishments...Unlike Bill Clinton, especially early in his presidency,
Obama has largely maintained control
of his public image, preserved the majesty of the office and maintained
good relations, in public and private,
with the armed services brass, the intelligence community and law enforcement."
-- Mark Halperin, attempting to
make some kind of point, Link
So what the hell is he saying?
Obama gets an 'A' where Clinton only got a 'B?'
Obama
has largely maintained control of his public image
You mean the Fascist from Kenya who's in bed with Osama and wants
America destroyed?
Really, That's maintaining control of his image?
Can you give me an example of one's image being distorted?
Obama
has preserved the majesty of the office
What did Clinton do early in
his presidency to hurt the majesty of the
office?
Remember, they bent the rules to get him. Girlfriends were off-limits
in Washington for centuries
but the racist dogs were determined to bring down "that nigger lover"
at any cost.
Obama
maintained good relations with the armed services brass,
Hey Einstein, Obama wasn't drafted to go to Vietnam so he didn't
protest that war
so the right-wingers and the military had no incentive to turn Obama
into "another Jane Fonda."
Note:
In 2008, Halperin concluded that 'John
McCain won the week' when the economic crisis
hit in full force and McCain super-stupidly decided to halt his campaign
while Obama said,
"A president needs to be able to handle more
than one crisis at a time."
Mr,. Halperin, I don't think you know much about politics, or history.
Or, maybe you do and you're just a lying dick.
Quotes
"Halperin just spent the better part of the
last year cashing in on a book that was
nothing but unsourced rumors, gossip,
and anonymous insider accusations, dressed up
as "deep background reporting." In
fact, when I think of the "toxic freak show nature of
our politico-media culture," Halperin
is the first person I think of - right in front of
Howard Kurtz and almost all of the
Washington Post op-ed contributors. And for the record,
the Lewinsky scandal, the thing that
tarnished Clinton's "public image," didn’t happen early on,
it happened halfway through his second
term. And with his tarnished public image, Clinton left
office with a 66% approval rating.
Halperin just has to get that one last dig in at the Clintons
and can't be bothered to get the basic
facts right. "Toxic freak show nature," indeed.

Subject: Catholics
Bart, your blog comments on the atrocities and
cover-up by the Catholic church of their child molestations
have been an enlightenment to many readers. I
have this to say about this outrageous conduct by the church's
priesthood and their ungodly bishops, cardinal
and pope in regards to the cover-up of their widespread pedophilia.
The Roman Catholic Church was born of conflict
matured into inequity and evil, all for the imposition of a precept
of religion. Historically the Catholic Church,
regardless of its alleged doctrine, has been a fount of deciet, barbarism,
hedonism
and other despicable actions, all under the pretense
that god desired this action or reaction to challange threats to their
rule.
Therefore it should come as no surprise that this
same church is simply continuing with their history by this current abomination
of pedophilia. While the acts of pedophilia are
utterly unacceptable, the coverup of this crime against humanity is inexcusable.
I would caution Catholics to give serious study
of their religion (or any religion for that matter) from inception until
current
time and determine the truth for themselves.
Men, in the guise of spiritual leaders will not only lead you astray of
the
common good, they also will destroy your universal
spirit.

"It doesn't matter whether Palin is uneducated,
unprincipled, unaware and unscrupulous.
The more she's proven incapable of
the presidency, the more her supporters believe she
is destined for it. It's a brilliant
little gig she's devised. She may be ignorant, but she is not stupid.
She has the smarts of all accomplished
pathological liars and phonies. And this time, she will
not even bother to go on any television
outlets other than Fox News. She will be the first
presidential nominee never to have
had a press conference."
-- Andrew Sullivan,

Dude, I think you're wrong.
She doesn't want to be president, she wants to be rich.
And like a typical Rethug, now that she's rich, she wants to
be richer.
Why trade that for a gilded cage on Pennsylvania Avenue?
Bill Day
Wins RFK Journalism Award Woo Hoo!
He is a good friend and toon contributor to
bartcop.com
Cartooning free agent and former Commercial-Appeal
cartoonist Bill Day was named the "Cartoon Winner"
in the 2010 Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Awards
for his much-lauded series on infant mortality that has been
cited at least twice in recent cartooning awards
history. That work also received a special citation at the
National Press Foundation dinner in February
and were lauded at the 2009 Berryman Awards as well.
I guess you could work the fact that Day isn't
a full-time employee into some sort of odd schadenfreude
notion regarding the missing, sponsoring newspapers
that doesn't get to share in Day's honor, but it seems
that cartoonists like Day find themselves without
that single employer for just about every reason other than
anyone's estimation of their ability to do great
work.
I believe "free agent" is code for "needs a job to support his family."
As newspapers go under, we could lose talented people like Bill Day.

"In just 16 months they've added more than
$2 trillion to the national debt, essentially nationalized
the health-care system, the student-loan
industry, and have their sights set on draconian cap-and-trade
regulations on carbon emissions and
amnesty for illegal aliens. Had President Obama campaigned on
this agenda, he wouldn't have garnered
30% of the popular vote."

Subject: Violence organized from behind the 1st Amendment
Consider the proposition that Fox News, Rush and
the rest of the right wing media have been specifically created
to serve as the incendiary, organizing force
behind the militant right wing violence we are seeing today, and that they
have been purposely built to be able to hide
themselves behind the First Amendment wall. They incite the
violence,
put up pictures of Obama in the crosshairs, issue
the order to reload, and otherwise yell fire in a crowded theater,
but as members of the “official” press, they
get even more deference and 1st Amendment protection than you and I
get as individuals.
And that this is not random, this is not a fortuitous
response by an already existing conservative media, but part of a
larger plan, a long-term conservative strategic
plan, to make this country ungovernable by other than the chosen
corporate, white-male elites. The conservative
investment in the media these past three or four decades may have
been for more than just for influence, it may
have been to create the foundation for inciting and managing the violent
overthrow of our system of government.

"We are entering a dark, dark period of man.
I was in the Vatican, and I was surprised that they
knew who I was. And they said: ‘Of
course we know who you are. What you’re doing is wildly important.
We’re entering a period of great darkness,
and if good people don’t stand up, we could enter a period
unlike we have seen in a very long
time.’ It was odd to stand in the Vatican and hear those words."

Subject: How bad is the illegal alien problem in Arizona?
This type of thing is almost a weekly occurrence, sometimes daily. (no lie)
Not long ago a rancher was shot dead on his own
property by illegals smuggling dope.
They sit on the other side of the border and
snipe at the border patrol. There are daily stories
about crimes committed by illegals, everything
from animal cruelty to murder.
If they want to enter the country legally there’s
no problem it’s the multitudes of illegals that
are the problem. I just read that over several
years Sheriff
Joe has arrested 38,000 illegals.
Yes it’s a BIG problem in AZ and those who criticize
AZ’s immigration law don’t know what
they are talking about or they are Hispanic.
That includes San Francisco and that idiot Bloomberg in NY.
Andy
Andy, thanks for that.
Our whore media is too busy pouring gas and fanning
the flames to give out the facts.

Subject: Space Alien responds to Stephen Hawking
So Mr. Hawking, you say it's "too risky" to contact
beings from other planets?
You must be thinking about moving to Arizona
because of your anti-alien rhetoric.
We don’t like being called “Space Aliens”. We
see ourselves as “Citizens of the Universe”.
We need to stop listening to racist pigs like Stephen Hawking. ha ha
If we are going to get along in the universe,
we have to stop judging people be the color
of their skin or what planet they were born on.
For years people from other planets have
become productive citizens of Earth. While it
is true that we have taken jobs in the computer
design and software development industry, we
only design the chips and write the software
that no one else wants to do, working for free
in to Open Source world.
I know many of you are afraid that we are just
here to breed your women and
use our mind control powers to make you vote
for people who no one had ever
heard of like Barrack Obama and Sarah Palin.
ha ha But we just want
to be treated like
people no matter if our skin color is white,
brown, black, yellow, invisible, or green.
We should not be forced to carry identifier chips
to be scanned by
police robots to prove that we are legally allowed
to be here on this planet.

Tonight we're going to see a true guitar legend - one of the best ever.
Jimmy Page said about him, "He's been instrumental
in pioneering a whole blueprint that was
totally unique to him and...has been such
a blueprint for everyone else to learn from..."
Hell, he might be technically better than The Del Castillo Brothers. (One brother, not both)
If I get a chance to talk to him, I won't even tease him about playing
