"Donald Rumsfeld said they are going to have elections even if only three quarters of the country votes. He said life isn't perfect. He said sometimes when you have elections, you have to exclude parts of the country. You know, like we did with the blacks in Florida." -- Bill Maher

Are you angry because you were looking for a
picture of
a parrotfish ( it is a real photo of an aquarium) ? You think it’s fake?
I guess you have never been diving or snorkeling. Or are you angry
at the caption under the parrotfish? "Parrot Fish successfully practicing
integration."
Do you believe in freedom of speech? I do. I won’t call you names or
tell you what to think. I prefer to use that right in a productive way.
I will post your use of YOUR freedom of speech, which is reflective of many Bush
supporters.
Iraqi cartoonist Muayed Naima, like other
artists, intellectuals and writers, worked within tight constraints under Saddam
Hussein. Naima had to wait 35 years before he could draw what was on his mind.
But since Saddam Hussein was toppled, he has faced new pressure from Islamist
militants who have threatened him because his work mocks their violence. He is
not put off. In this cartoon by Naima, fanged snakes emerge from the base of a
toppled statue of Saddam Hussein.

"President Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Allawi were here this week to say things are going very well in Iraq indeed. Although Allawi did admit there are pockets of terrorists. Most of whom are in one area, called Iraq." -- Bill Maher

Ginny Graybiel @PensacolaNewsJournal.com A
Pensacola businessman has filed a lawsuit to collect a $39,624 debt that he says
former U.S. Rep. Joe Scarborough owes him. Bob Switzer personally guaranteed a
$50,000 revolving business line of credit that Scarborough obtained when he was
publisher and owner of The Florida Sun, a weekly newspaper, according to the
