Outlook for Bush brighter than dad's
Portsmouth Herald, NH - 1-24-04
"This is not a recovery for the
working American," Sen. John Kerry, who finished first among the Democrats in
the Iowa caucuses, said after Bush’s rosy State of the Union speech this week.
"This is a Wall Street, Bush-league recovery."
In fact, the economy has lost about 2.3 million jobs under Bush, the worst job
creation record of any president since Herbert Hoover...

Pro, con Limbaugh e-mails released
South Florida Sun-Sentinel, FL - 1-24-04
..."Rush Limbaugh should be
treated no differently than others because `people' want him to be punished for
who he is. It is simply not fair," one woman from Dayton, Ohio, wrote on Jan.
15.
"You must indict talk radio host Rush Limbaugh for possession of illegal drugs,
if you have evidence that he bought them, as has been reported. Or stop
enforcing the law altogether. Rich and influential people should not be treated
in a different manner than the rest of us, or there is no meaning to the
judicial system at all," another woman from Chicago wrote on Oct. 26....

" What Ever Happened To Peace On Earth? "
By Willie Nelson
There's so many things going on in the world
Babies dying, Mothers crying
How much oil is one human life worth
And what ever happened to Peace On Earth?
We believe everything that they tell us
They're gonna' kill us
So we gotta' kill them first
But I remember a commandment
Thou shall not kill
How much is that soldier's life worth
And whatever happened to Peace On Earth?
(Bridge)
And the bewildered herd is still believing
Everything we've been told from our birth
Hell they won't lie to me
Not on my own damn TV
But how much is a liar's word worth
And whatever happened to Peace On Earth?
So I guess it's just
Do unto others before they do it to you
Let's just kill em' all and let God sort em' out
Is this what God wants us to do?
(Repeat Bridge)
And the bewildered herd is still believing
Everything we've been told from our birth
Hell they won't lie to me
Not on my own damn TV
But how much is a liar's word worth
And whatever happened to Peace On Earth?
Now you probably won't hear this on your radio
Probably not on your local TV
But if there's a time, and if you're ever so inclined
You can always hear it from me
How much is one picker's word worth
And whatever happened to Peace On Earth?
But don't confuse caring for weakness
You can't put that label on me
The truth is my weapon of mass protection
And I believe truth sets you free
(Bridge)
And the bewildered herd is still believing
Everything we've been told from our birth
Hell they won't lie to me
Not on my own damn TV
But how much is a liar's word worth
And whatever happened to Peace On Earth?
