Quotes
"That was seriously the weirdest thing that has ever happened to me in my entire life. Can you imagine getting your hair cut and then (seeing that) on the news?" -- Jennifer Lawrence on how screwed-up CNN's sense of "news" is Link Send e-mail to Bart Obama Shook Hitler's Hand That's what has Sen. Depends in a hissy Link Obama's gestures at Nelson Mandela's memorial service were widely scrutinized Tuesday. First, Obama shook hands with Cuban President Raul Castro as the U.S. president approached the podium at the soccer stadium to address Mandela's mourners. The brief exchange, captured on video and photographs, sparked an immediate reaction online and on TV, with cable news pundits and Twitter users debating the significance of warmth shown between leaders of countries that have not had formal diplomatic relations since 1959. The handshake also drew some sharp GOP criticism. Grandpa McCain likened it to shaking hands with Adolf Hitler. "Why should you shake hands with somebody who's keeping Americans in prison?" McCain fumed, adding: "Neville Chamberlain shook hands with Hitler." Before his handshake with Hitler, Obama also shared a handshake and a kiss with Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, who has angrily condemned U.S. spying in her country. Sounds like Obama is using his considerable charm to spread American good will. Meanbwhile, McCain is VERY upset that Obama hasn't invaded anyone and wants him impeached for that. Had Obama ignored Castro, FOX News likely would've led with "N-word shows bad manners." Send e-mail to Bart Subject: RE: Is the Pope serious about cleaning up the church? I think he is.

Advertise on bartcop.com Take to the Hills: Clothing the Sierra Madres My good friend The Freeway Blogger is a one-man Charity Wave "If you want to directly alleviate human suffering here’s what to do: collect warm clothing, put them in a car and deliver them to people who are cold." —Patrick Randall in "Take to the Hills." Link The renowned FreewayBlogger, aka Patrick Randall, tells the story of one of his earliest decisiond to take direct action—he hears a report of poverty in Mexico, loads up his trusty old VW bus and hits the road with half a ton of clothes, no map, some good tunes and a sense of adventure. The trip turns into an exploration in discovery, friendship and the power of acting on your beliefs in a tale of a journey that's part travelogue, part exhortation to take philanthropic risks, but all heart. "Take to the Hills! Clothing the Sierra Madres" is the story of how a coincidence turned an English teacher into a modern-day Robin Hood: taking warm clothing from the rich and bringing them to the poorest, coldest people he could find. It shows how one person can make a difference in the lives of thousands and have the adventure of a lifetime doing it. eBook Price: $0.99 I bought a copy and I'm glad I did; Excerpt: I spent the next three years collecting blankets, warm clothes, school and medical supplies, and delivering them to communities throughout the northwest Sierra Madres, reaching about forty different villages spread out across 5,000 square miles. When I was done I could look at a globe, put my finger down on one spot and say, “There, right there. The people who live in this place are at least slightly better off because of what I did.” It’s an amazing feeling, and not one that many get to experience. In a very real way it crystallized everything about life in the the first and third worlds: We spend our time dealing with our surpluses while they spend theirs coping with their lack.

I can answer this one. After Nixon's flameout, the GOP decided their next winner, whoever he was, would be God, even if he was an arms-to-terrorists moron who did shit movies with a chimp. Reagan was 100 percent phoney and everybody knew it, but our idiot Democrats fell in line and praised Reagan as tho he deserved it. Why can't Democrats think? Subject: Central Park Dear Bart: Excuse me for being provincial, but how many people don't recognize a straight-overhead shot of Central Park? Cordially, Stu the lawyer People in New Yorkers think everything revolves around them. It doesn't. I didn't know what Central Park looked like until I went there - why should I? Do you have Golden Gate Park in San Francisco memorized? What about Griffith Park in Los Angeles? Got that memorized? That's easily my number one bitch about New Yorkers. If it gets hot in New York, the networks anchors think that's national news. same for when it snows. Well guess what? It shows here, too and it gets hot, except we don't faint if the temp hits 95 because lots of time it hits 115 here but does New York bother to cover that? Noooooooooooooo. When that Linsanity bullshit hit, New Yorkers put him on the cover of every national magazine, Guess what? Nobody cared because it was a local little story and nothing more. You guys think Derek Jeter is the closest thing to God - he's not, He's the local shortstop who plays for the checkbook Yankees and that's all. When the loser Jets have a quarterback controversy, New York thinks that's national news. It's not. There's a great quaterback right now in Seattle who is currently 11-2 but nobody knows his name because he doesn't play for New York, the only city that matters. Clarification: I'm not angry with you, Stu. I see you as a victim in all this. If you grew up in New York, you've been spoon-fed the lie that the entire world evolves around you, even tho everyone else knows it doesn't. Another one is Broadway and the Tony Awards. Who gives a fuck? I'd rather watch f-ing soccer than the goddamn Tony Awards, but New York thinks they're soooo important. They're NOT. Do you think anyone cared who won the Mayor of New York? We couldn't possibly care less, but the media, once again, felt that was national news. I'll guess that's why the Yankees are as hated, nationally, as the Dallas Cowboys. The Yankees are the most visible symbol of that classless "You're not from New York so you don't count, so go fuck yourself," bullshit and we're sick of it. Speaking for everyone outside of New York - we're tired of your local news. Put that shit on some local channel and let the networks and magazines report national news. When the fuck will New Yorkers get over themselves? Hopefully in my lifetime, but I'm not holding my breath. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Questions about lesbian sex Link Answer: This question is always hilarious to me, because it shows how deeply ingrained strict gender roles are. Sometimes there are more masculine women or queer folks who like to be in control, but not always. It all comes down to personal preference, honestly. And not just that one of us is always "a top" and the other "a bottom"... we often switch roles, sometimes during the middle of the same sex session.on Yeah, but when you're asleep and you hear a noise, only one of you gets up and investigates with (hilariously) a golf club or a baseball bat.

Link Uruguay's Senate is expected to pass a law on Tuesday making them the world's first nation to allow its citizens to grow, buy and smoke marijuana. The pioneering government-sponsored bill establishes state regulation of the cultivation, distribution and consumption of marijuana and is aimed at wresting the business from criminals. Cannabis consumers would be allowed to buy 1.4 ounces each month from state-regulated pharmacies as long as they are registered on a government database that will monitor their monthly purchases. 17 ounces). They could also set up smoking clubs of 15 to 45 members that could grow up to 99 plants per year. The bill, which opinion polls show is unpopular, passed the lower chamber of Congress in July and is expected to easily pass the Senate on the strength of the ruling coalition's majority. Uruguay's attempt to undo drug trafficking is being followed closely in Latin America where the legalization of some narcotics is being increasingly seen by regional leaders as a possible way to end the violence spawned by the cocaine trade. Hmmm, Bartfest San Pedro? BTW, our Colorado Freedom Fest isn't looking very good. For one, to this day nobody has a clue what's going to happen or when. I talked to one dispensary today and she said her dispensary isn't going "public" until 2015. She also said they won't even start growing the public pot until January so it'll be months after that before anything is available - IF she klnows what she's talking about. You'd think with many millions of tourism dollars at stake somebody would know something. I may have to do an early-January solo mission to see what's up, maybe meet some locals. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Customers trickle to revamped Obamacare sites Headline in the Washington Moonie Times Send e-mail to Bart GOP's Coming "Bar room brawl" And we'll be there to cover every battle Link The political director of a prominent Tea Party Super PAC predicts that “big punches” will be thrown within the GOP as groups like his gear up for primary challenges in the 2014 midterm elections against Republicans whom they view as not conservative enough. “I think the 2014 primary cycle is going to be unlike anything that we've seen,” said the Madison Project’s Drew Ryun. “This is going to be the equivalent of a bar room brawl.” The Republican establishment, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, is going head-to-head with the Madison Project in several of the races where the Super PAC is working to replace the incumbent. But Ryun told “Top Line” they were ready for the fight. “I think it's going to come down to a battle of tactics,” Ryun said. “They're going to have more money; we're going to have more people. And, basically, who employs the best tactics is going to come out on top of these primaries.” Ryun acknowledged that the Tea Party had fallen short in the past in choosing “viable candidates.” It’s for this reason, he said, that the Madison Project was selective in choosing which candidates to back and pointed to the their support of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz as one example. “Ted Cruz being a great example for us in the 2012 cycle where there's a five-way primary in that Texas primary race. We had the opportunity to meet with him, in a sense clarify for the Republican movement. This is our guy; he went on to win,” Ryun said. If the Democrats had any brains or any will to win (Why do I torture myself this way?) they would finance stealth campaigns for Teabaggers and make those primaries eight-person races. That would enable the Teabaggers to win the primary but then lose the general election but since Democrats have no brains and no will to win, that's not going to happen. Dear Lord, how did this IQ-of-64 Okie land in a party where he's one of the smart people? Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Oklahoma gets all the good stuff Satan Coming to Oklahoma Link Leave it to the Satanists to bring new fun to the shopworn church-state debate. Last year, a monument to the Ten Commandments was erected on the grounds of the Oklahoma statehouse. The display was the pet project of local handjob rep Mike Ritze, who not only spearheaded the legislative approval required, but he kicked in $10,000, too. The monument stood for nine months, unnoticed by the outside world, until the ACLU filed a lawsuit calling for its removal. But even as the suit bubbled steadily along, no one seemed to pay it much attention. Until… On December 1, the New York-based Satanic Temple, offering “to donate a public monument to Oklahoma.” The group pitched the monument as “an homage” to Satan, meant “to complement and contrast the Ten Commandments monument.” As temple founder Lucien Greaves elaborated, “Allowing us to donate a monument would show that the Oklahoma City Council does not discriminate, and both the religious and non-religious should be happy with such an outcome.” It's clearly illegal to have religious stuff on state land, but Okies don't care.
