"They can't show the carrier footage with him in front of 'Mission Accomplished' -- it just looked stupid. Now I think they can't do 9/11. The only thing they're going to be able to do is ads of him clearing brush." --Al Franken on President Bush's television ads, during Franken's premiere broadcast on Air America Radio

When all else fails, resort to calling your enemy a slimeball. Yep, there's that honor and dignity back in the White House.

Questions for Bush

...'He really liked showing it off,' says a recent visitor to the White House who has seen the gun. 'He was really proud of it.' The pistol's new place of residence is in the small study next to the Oval Office where Bush takes select visitors after pointing out better-known White House pieces like the busts
I understand from the media President Bush is in possession
of the gun found with Saddam when he was captured.
My question is does President Bush know the gun is the property of the United
States Government? It is to stay in Washington, DC possibly in the Smithsonian.
Anyone want to bet in a couple of years it will be "missing"?

Compassionativity is not a word.

Lisa,
Thought you'd be interested to see this response to
the NAFTA trade treaty here in Costa Rica. Particularly
poignant to me is the photo of students burning a U.S.
flag. We've been living here for 10 years and it is
embarrassing to tell people we are from the U.S.

Rummy's West Point Commencement Message
WEST POINT, NY (IWR News Parody)
- Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told a crowd of graduating cadets Saturday
that they will help win the global fight against terror by using effective
homoerotic torture techniques as those employed at Abu Ghraib and Gitmo prison
facilities.
The defense secretary urged the new officers to not entirely rely on the
so-called "moral clarity" learned at West Point. He said they should instead
embrace the "new neocon morality" that says "anything goes if you are an
American", and that the military should not be constrained by such "silly
international agreements as the Geneva Convention".

You might be a right wing republican if......you have a borderline psychotic obsession with the fact that Bill Clinton was elected President. Twice. Fair and Square. Don't you tell me to "just get over it."
A powerful earthquake that shook Alaska in 2002 affected geysers and hot springs at Yellowstone National Park nearly 2,000 miles away in Wyoming, scientists reported on May 28, 2004. The magnitude 7.9 Denali fault earthquake in November 2002 was known to have triggered smaller quakes across much of the U.S. West, but its effect on geysers was previously unknown, a team at the University of Utah said.(USGS/HO)
