From Her Lips to His Ear
Washington Post, United States - 3-24-06
Dear Laura,
It's time for you to act. Nancy Reagan did it. You can, too.

Things are falling apart. They always do in the second term. And when they do, there's only one person who can change things: the wife...

 

US Carlyle Group's purchase of Xugong Group halted by China ...

Former first lady's donation aids son
Houston Chronicle - 3-22-06
Former first lady Barbara Bush donated an undisclosed amount of money to the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund with specific instructions that the money be spent with an educational software company owned by her son Neil...Information about the effectiveness of the program, through district-generated reports, was not readily available Wednesday, according to an HISD spokeswoman.


 

I don't know which is worse, the Bushmen or the Bushwomen.

 

Note to all you Bush lovers out there -- Laura was the one who told the joke about her husband and the horse, not me!

 


 

"You'd think if a woman has reached her 80th birthday she'd understand that if you make a donation to charity, then make the charity give the donation to your son, it's not a damned donation anymore! Barbara Bush, today's 'Worst Person in the World'!"-- Keith Olbermann

You Thought the Dubai Port Sale was Bad?

 

In the aftermath of the Dubai ports dispute, the Bush administration is hiring a Hong Kong conglomerate to help detect nuclear materials inside cargo passing through the Bahamas to the United States and elsewhere.

The administration acknowledges the no-bid contract with Hutchison Whampoa Ltd. represents the first time a foreign company will be involved in running a sophisticated U.S. radiation detector at an overseas port without American customs agents present.

Disturbing News

 


BedTime for Bonzo

 

"I think you said `Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise,'" Bush said, standing next to Ralph Archbold of Philadelphia, who did an impersonation of Franklin in honor of the founding father's 300th birthday.

"Some of us want to take you at your word," Bush said
before heading off, with first lady Laura Bush, to the residence.

Subject: GOP ads on your site?!!!

Don't worry. Those are Google Ads (on my Frontpage and inside my daily edition) and the advertiser pays ME per click. Odd, how capitalism works.

 


 


 

 


Republican Shenanigans


 

Jeff Gannon - Shoots Out A Book

 

My book is about my two years with the White House Press Corps, the news stories I covered as a reporter for Talon News, the media in general and of course the events surrounding Gannongate. I'm sure there are some people concerned about what I might say about them in my book. They should be.

Hillary vs The Best the GOP Could Come Up With

 

A former Pentagon official seeking the Republican nomination to run against Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton this year may have puffed up her resume. ..."In all fairness, when Ms. McFarland said she wrote Star Wars, perhaps she meant the George Lucas film," said Blake Zeff, a state Democratic Party spokesman.

What if the President was using BitTorrent?

 


 

 

The President, First Lady and Dick Cheney were flying on Air Force One. George looked at Laura, chuckled and said, "You know, I could throw a $1,000 bill out of the window right now and make somebody very happy."

Laura shrugged her shoulders and replied, "I could throw ten $100 bills out of the window and make ten people very happy."

Cheney added, "That being the case, I could throw one hundred $10 bills out of the window and make a hundred people very happy."

Hearing their exchange, the pilot rolled his eyes and said to his co-pilot, "Such big-shots back there. Hell, I could throw all of them out of the window and make 5.995 Billion people very happy.

By Don Davis


On the heels of the Cheney “Downtime Requirements” document obtained by The Smoking Gun, this reporter has come into possession of a top secret memo outlining the Top Ten demands that President Bush has during his hotel stays:

10. All lights turned off — Bush prefers to stay in the dark.

9. Four cartons of chocolate milk, and a package of Oreos, in honor of such Bush aides as Claude “The Fraud” Allen.

8. Temperature set to 31 degrees — helps maintain Bush’s “brain freeze.”
