"It is the height of insanity that, for one of the most important jobs in the country, RUNNING the xountry, we have morons who believe that the only ones qualified to do that job are other morons with no qualifications... Would you really prefer to have your chest cracked open by someone who has never been to medical school, and oh, by the way, HATES medicine, and has never read a book of any kind, never mind a medical book? Hey, we need a bridge built. Forget the engineers. My cousin hates bridges and the people who build them. He's never even been ON a bridge. Perfect!! Let's hire him! It's time for a Teabagger to show them how it's done." -- constant weader Link But the reason they got away with that bullshit is because Democrats failed to do what this guy just did - call them on it.

Mystery Quotes "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -- Dwight Eisenhower Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Russ Feingold Bart - We lost a lot of bold leaders on Tuesday, but Senator Russ Feingold is in a class all his own. He is one of the great heroes of the progressive movement -- standing up and fighting for the people time and again -- often when no one else had the courage to lead. When other Democrats in Washington capitulated to President Bush and supported the war in Iraq, Feingold voted against war. Two years later, he became the first Senator to call a withdrawal of troops from Iraq. When the Bush administration pushed the Patriot Act on Congress, Senator Feingold was the only person is the Senate to recognize the bill as an attack on American civil liberties and vote "No." And when unlimited and unregulated "soft money" threatened to overwhelm our political system, Senator Feingold authored and passed into law the most powerful campaign finance reform in history. Senator Feingold has always been there for us. Please, join me in writing Senator Feingold a short thank you message for all the work he's done for us over the years. Write Sen. Russ Feingold a thank you message for all his work. And, of course, thank YOU for everything you do. Jim Dean I disagree. Besides those two votes, what's Feingold done in the last dozen years? For some reason, Coburn and Inhofe have the power to block ANYTHING Obama does, but Feingold sat on his hands while Bush was busy destroying the middle class of this once-great nation . Sure, voting against something counts, but not when 90 other senators vote for it. It's like Feingold wanted to say he voted against a bill, but he didn't mind it becoming law. And sure, Feingold might be "better" than some other Demo senators, but if he wasn't willing to block harmful legislation, how is he different from the other Demo-mice we have in Washington?

"We have a center right party, and a crazy party. And over the last thirty years, Democrats have moved to the right, and the right has moved into a mental hospital." -- Bill Maher, Link Send e-mail to Bart Subject: What does the Republican Win Mean? Voters are asking the question as to what the Republican wins in the election mean. Does it mean that the people want Republican control? Does it mean we should repeal health care reform or phase out Medicare and Social Security? When the Supreme Court deregulated corporate money, ruling that corporations were people, and allowed them to dump billions into the election, it proved that it worked. With enough corporate money you can buy an election. We have free speech in America but free speech freedom to speak. It doesn't mean it doesn't cost money. The more money you have the louder your "free speech" is. So when corporations dump billions into the election their free speech becomes louder than the free speech of the people. All this election proved is that money talks. We are controlled by corporate America once again like we were under Bush. Now we have the golden rule. He who has the gold makes the rule. Marc Perkel Send e-mail to Bart Quotes "Monkey Bush has told friends Sarah Palin isn't qualified to be President and criticizes McCain for putting Palin on the 2008 GOP ticket and handing her a national platform. He thinks McCain ran a lousy campaign with an unqualified running mate and destroyed any chance of winning by picking Palin. Karl Rove, Bush's brain, had already questioned whether Palin had the "gravitas" to be president - or even the fortitude to withstand the rigors of a long, bruising campaign." -- The Alaska Dispatch, Link It figures that Bush wouldn't like Palin. She's Bush with a smaller brain and bigger balls. Here's the deal: They've got NOBODY. All thru 2008, I gave you my Nancy Grace Guarantee that McCain wouldn't be their nominee because NOBODY liked McCain and he's not even a real conservative so how could he win? Trouble is, everyone else they had was even worse. Romney, Fred Thompson, Rudy, Huckabee - they all were front-runners at one time but nobody could bring the bacon home so they went with old, cranky senile McCain. Two years later they still have NOBODY. Sure, they'll talk about Pawlenty of that Bahbi joke who runs Louisiana, but they only REAL star the GOP has is that batshit Publicity Whore ......................and Jeb Bush. That's why Monkeyboy doesn't like Palin - she's in Jeb's way. Send e-mail to Bart Help Bartcop.com survive! to bartcop@bartcop.com OR send a 'love' check to bartcop.com
Quotes "Our strategy for two years has been appeasement, and look where it got us.

I think one's right and one's wrong Link Send e-mail to Bart Weird Picture of the Day Link Subject: smoking pot on live US TV Sir, came across your great site. Perhaps you can help with a question. The question was, Who was the first to smoke pot on TV? I seem to remember when Hendrix was on Johnny Carson, he played a song, broke a string, replaced it and continued the song. They chatted for a bit. Then another guest came on, while they were talking the audience went into somewhat nervous laughter, the camera went for a second to the couch where Jimi had started soming a joint. Johnny and the guest appeared to be very uncomfortable then. Perhaps you can verify this as i cannot find the video, yet. Thanks for your time, and again, you have a great site. Please send me the link if you find it, thanks Randall Send e-mail to Bart Quotes "On Fox News they address her as Governor Palin. Which is like calling me a Dairy Queen employee. I was once. But I quit." -- Tina Fey, Link Send e-mail to Bart Check out the news and toons at Wildlife Picture of the Day Link Subject: Bartcop Radio Defunct? Bart, When are we going to get some more BCR? I renewed right before they stopped appearing. I know better than to think it's a bait-and-switch, but as you often used to say, W T F? Wes in Jakarta You are correct, I'm very late with that but there's certainly no intent to mislead. I just need help with the show and help that fits is proving to be tough to find. I've talked to some people about joining the team, but so far the magic hasn't happened. Have you ever heard the Howard Stern radio show? Every day, his sidekick Robin reads the news and then they kick it around. That's what I need - someone to bring up different topics that we can discuss. (What would really be nice is to find someone from the Right to argue with but what are the oddds of finding a Rethug with that much balls?) For that to happen, I need someone who can record MP3s on their computer. What happens is this: My new partner would get on the phone with me while speaking into the microphone on their computer. When we're finished, my partner would e-mail his/her MP3 to me at the Bartcop Radio Studios for re-mixing and BOOM, we have a radio show. So that's what I need - someone who wants to be on the radio, someone who has a microphone and an MP3 recorder, someone who has opinions about the news and it willing to express them. There are a thousand things to talk about, but one man with a mic isn't great radio. Unlike the vulgar Pigboy, I'm not in love with the sound of my own voice. It would be nice to have someone to share the radio show with.

In this land where babies are brought by storks and buildings collapse due to unpatriotic bricks, we need the gadfly because no leader, preacher, guru, or saint will wake us up, though the Doomsday clock is ticking close to twelve.”— David Ray, American poet, author of “The Endless Search” and “The Death of Sardanapalus and Other Poems of the Iraq Wars” Packers beat Cowboys by 38 Dallas fires coach, hires new scapegoat Link Send e-mail to Bart Subject: compared to New Orleans Hi, Bart - How come they couldn't do this during Katrina?!! http://www.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/11/09/cruise.ship/index.html?hpt=Sbin Hope you're feeling better soon!

Subject: The bug is going round ... Bart, sorry to hear how sick you are. I can empathize. I had a high fever Saturday afternoon and went to a football game later that night. Since then, I've spent much of the time in bed, taking my temperature (which has been fluctuating between 99.0 and 101.2), swallowing as many liquids as I can, downing Ibuprofen tablets (Walmart house brand, of course; can't afford anything else) two at a time, and sweating profusely through a new set of flannel sheets topped with an electric blanket. It's currently 6:30 p.m. and this is the first time I've been out of bed since Monday night, and still, I can feel the fever coming back. In that spirit, I'd like to applaud the GOP for promising to axe the health care I so obviously do not need. Get well soon, my friend. Eric from OH Eric, thanks for that. Getting older and sicker is no fun. My back and chest are so sore from ____ and _____ I still can't even sit upright in a chair without a lot of pain. Burping, coughing, sneezing - it's like being stuck at Gitmo. There have been some comedy moments, tho... Monday night, I was trying to take some pills and my hands were shaking so hard from the shivering that it looked like some damn SNL skit. I had to laugh - even then. BTW, a temp of 101.2? I would've killed for those numbers Monday night. I got to 103.4 so I put a bag of ice on my head - didn't know what else to do. I can't go to the emergency room every time my brain starts broiling. I had a "brush with death" about a month ago and the Saturday doctor gave me 5 Cipros, which is what they use to fight Anthrax, right? When it came back, my "real" doctor said she should've given me ten Cipros, and that's why it came back. Lesson? Never trust a Saturday doctor. Send e-mail to Bart Check out bunches
