WASHINGTON - President Bush will be facing a tough crowd as he steps behind closed doors to ask House Republicans divided by the politics of war to support his drive for more power to spy on, imprison and interrogate terrorism suspects.“>http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060914/apongoprwh/bush_congress)

Republiscums really do love their closed doors, spying, imprisonments, and interrogations, don’t they? Since the americo-fascists here on the blog tell us all the time that we are terrorist sympathizers because we criticize King George and his royal court, we can only assume that the true target of said legislation is………….us, the American citizenry.

The median household income of Wal-Mart shoppers is under $40,000. Wal-Mart, the most prodigious job-creator in the history of the private sector in this galaxy, has almost as many employees (1.3 million) as the U.S. military has uniformed personnel. A McKinsey company study concluded that Wal-Mart accounted for 13 percent of the nation’s productivity gains in the second half of the 1990s, which probably made Wal-Mart about as important as the Federal Reserve in holding down inflation. By lowering consumer prices, Wal-Mart costs about 50 retail jobs among competitors for every 100 jobs Wal-Mart creates. Wal-Mart and its effects save shoppers more than $200 billion a year, dwarfing such government programs as food stamps ($28.6 billion) and the earned-income tax credit ($34.6 billion).-RealClearPolitics

So of course the liberals hate Walmart.

Before they went on their bender of indignation about Wal-Mart (customers per week: 127 million), liberals had drummed McDonald’s (customers per week: 175 million) out of civilized society because it is making us fat, or something. So, what next? Which preferences of ordinary Americans will liberals, in their role as national scolds, next disapprove? Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet?

WASHINGTON - House Republicans seeking to build a pre-election record for getting tough on illegal immigration plan a new vote Thursday on a border fence proposal that won House approval last December.

The bill calls for building more than 700 miles of double-layered fencing along the nearly 2,000-mile border with Mexico. The House approved the same amount of fencing when it passed its enforcement-focused immigration bill last December.

House leaders see the fence construction as a border security issue that needs immediate attention, said Kevin Madden, spokesman for House Majority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio. The bill is an “emergency measure” to add fencing and technology on the border, he said.

So Republicans re-voting in September on a bill that “won House approval last December” is an “emergency measure”, now. Republicans should never say jack about their record on security but they continue to think that they can ‘Fool ALL of the People ALL of the Time’, don’t they ? ? ?

Back to Sonny. He is a politician like all others. My only beef with him is that the gas tax remained based on a percent of cost, instead of a flat rate per gallon like most other southeastern states. When the cost to produce gas went up, so did taxes by the same rate. Why? Any guess as to why the state has a large revenue surplus?
If you make a big deal out of a law that gives a very wealthy individual a $100k break, then you have blinders on and aren’t watching the other politicians closely. Giving him that kind of a break is like giving you and me $5 off on the price of a new Ford. 99% of elections are a choice of the lesser of two evils, but a necessary choice to make.

Rep. Richard Pombo, R-Calif., said he had hoped the legislation would stop “reservation shopping,” a growing trend. Tribal gambling has become a $22 billion-a-year industry, richer than Nevada casinos.

Now here’s a slick little move by the Karl Rovian Republicans. OF COURSE THE EFFORT FAILED. Jack Abramhoff and Ralph Reed worked dilligently to bribe all their Republican buddies to protect the Indian gambling interests.

Feminism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Feminism is a diverse collection of social theories, political movements and moral philosophies, largely motivated by or concerned with the experiences of women. Most feminists are especially concerned with social, political and economic inequality between men and women; some have argued that gendered and sexed identities, such as “man” and “woman,” are socially constructed. Feminists differ over the sources of inequality, how to attain equality, and the extent to which gender and (identities) should be questioned and critiqued. In simple terms, feminism is the belief in social, political and economic equality of the sexes and the movement organised around this belief.

Feminist political activists commonly campaign on issues such as reproductive rights (including the right to safe, legal abortion, access to contraception, quality prenatal care), violence within a domestic partnership, maternity leave, equal pay, sexual harassment, street harassment, discrimination and rape. Many feminists today argue that feminism is a grass-roots movement that seeks to cross boundaries based on social class, race, culture and religion. They also argue that an effective feminist movement should be culturally specific and address issues relevant to the women of the society in question (eg, female genital cutting in Africa or the glass ceiling issue in developed economies), and debate the extent to which certain issues such as rape, incest and mothering are universal. Themes explored in feminism include patriarchy, stereotyping, objectification, sexual objectification and oppression.

I used to vote Republican “locally”, so this cartoon didn’t really reach out to me; but this year I refuse to vote the same party as feminist attacking Andy. I really believe that feminism as defined provides many more benefits than harm. Chief among my concerns is Domestic Violence; really shocking events there for those who care to become more educated. One of the worst is that male judges often feel companionship with violent male domestic partners and thus deny protection. Another is the total helplessness, self loathing, unworthiness and hopelessness an abused woman feels that adds to an environment from which she can’t escape. In spite of Andy’s cheers on battering women, he should at least be concerned with the impact to the children.

And I agree with Blog D

3- Prepare to launch an independent investigation when it becomes clear we have exhausted the opportunity to usefully collaborate with the majority. We can pull the trigger on an independent investigation at any time— but we can only do so once. The best time to do so will probably be next year either: A- After we have already released our additional views on an interim report — thereby providing as many as three opportunities to make our case to the public: 1- additional views on the interim report; 2- announcement of our independent investigation; and 3- additional views on the final investigation;

This link shows that Rockefeller admits that the memo above came from his office. He was quite indignant, not that this despicable plan to launch a phony investigation was formed, but that he got caught.

Ways To Kill Barney!

Make him watch his own show.

Make him gargle broken glass.

Get children-sized mannequins and fill them with razor blades. (kinda like the razored apple Halloween trick!)

Get him to read “The Canonical List of Blonde Jokes” to a room full of feminists.

Send him to Sea World to see Shamu -enough said

Drop him from an overpass onto the in-bound lane of spaghetti junction.

Slap some antlers on his head and send him into the woods during November.

Move every third molecule 3 feet to the left until he closely resembles Picasso’s “Guernica”.

Nail his feet to his shoulders and use him as the Jamaican bobsled in the 1996 Winter Olympics.

Hollow him out and fill him with Bac-o-bits, use as Swiss Colony store display model.

Cryogenically freeze him, then cut out shamrock shaped pieces of his body, dye green, and use as lapel pins for St. Patrick’s Day.

Shoot him.

“Barney, I would like you to meet Dr. Kevorkian….”

Let him be a guest on Geraldo…let the one armed, Vietnamese, lesbian, bigamist rip his arms off.

Donate his body to science…early.

Well, just call my cousins Guido and Vinnie and tell them that you kinda placed $200 in a bag under the rock in the park…. mention the fact that you would love to have Barney’s knee-caps as conversation pieces.

Ask the owl in the tree, “How many layers of skin does it take to get to the middle of a Barney?” Peel off layers of skin one at a time.

Get him to show kids how to make and set off pipe bombs.

Have him magically turn the classroom into a vacuum … watch his body explode.

Strip off his flesh, bury the bones in your back yard, and then dig them up, a piece at a time, selling them to your nearest natural history museum. A complete dinosaur skeleton would be worth a fortune! Death to Barney for fun AND profit!

Sonny didn’t:

inherit “a budget deficit” from the Dems in 2002;

increase education spending — he only replaced what he took away to start with;

fulfill his promise to the “Confederate flag” nutwings to reinstate that abomination.

So he gets a grade of 33% from most Georgians, and that’s a failing grade that does not merit re-election.

What did Sonny do?

@@, you can stop grasping at straws now. There were no WMDs. None. Deal with reality for once please. As for what Rockefeller did, yes, that was certainly the wrong thing to do. He was right, of course, Bush was going to go to war no matter what (and did go to war no matter what), but he should not have told that to foreign heads of state.

Gooood Morning VietNam~!!!!!

Well — what a lot of hooey has been posted today I see —

Ok - Walmart! the good ol’ 100 to 50 jobs argument they love so much!

Yes they have created 100 jobs while (only?) costing americans 50 jobs. But are those 100 jobs quality jobs compared to the (Home owned) jobs (and buisinesses)they have destroyed? I know from experience on this one when Valdermort(WalMort) sent spies into my bookstore to see what I was charging retail prices on new releases at, and what I carried on my shelves. In short - they put buisiness owners out of buisiness to make jobs for their slave labor camps called stores (not to mention illegals) so the evil masters can make all the money to store in their fat bank accounts. Yes this money sits in banks rather than have it revolve within the public economy where it would continue to earn tax revenues, and build our nations roads, schools, even churches. Just remember kiddies! Monopolies are Bad — and will damage the economy! (basic economics folks!)

If anybody wants to know why the democratic party is destined for the trash heap of history, just check out the depth of their intelligence; Take every single article that comes up on “world renowned” “leader in investigative hard hitting journalism” Yahoo! and blame it on Republicans and Bush.

Then your pinko mission is accomplished.

And then watch their fellow parrot pinko come squawking in here about “spam.”

It’s just nothing but trash.

But it is easy to skim over, just hold your mouse pointer on the blue text, if you see Yahoo! in the url, that’s your signal to pass over it.

Gotta love RW & @@. Just gotta love them. Now that they realize what a disaster Iraq has been, their strategy is “Well, Democrats thought of it first!”.

Idiots… when did you EVER listen to anything Albright or Berger had to say? This is YOUR disaster, not theirs. They were not stupid enough to invade. Deal with reality. That’s like if Johny killed Timmy, then tried to lessen the blame by claiming “Well, I heard Mikey say he didn’t like Timmy either, so really this murder is his fault!” Won’t work, fellas.

Just because you are a hopeless clown that throws tantrums when your side isn’t in office doesn’t mean everyone does. Some of us love this country and want to protect it from useful idiots like you.

Why don’t you make up your mind. Were there no WMD’s or did we sell them to him? I’m getting a little tired of your waffling John Kerry imitation.

RW, dear idiot, since you obviously have the mental capacity of a cucumber (or are doing a bang-up job of convincing those on this board that you do), let me try to really really simply explain this to you.

We (the U.S.) sold Saddam chemical weapons. He used them (though not quite the way we wanted). When you use something, it tends to, well, get used up. So he used his chemical weapons. He could not make more, we did not sell him more. Plus things like chemicals tend to degrade in quality over time. Trust me, I work in a wet lab, we have to replace our stock solutions from time to time. Same thing. So yes, Saddam DID have chemical weapons. No, he did not have them in 2003, and he certainly was not producing them.

Let me know which parts of this you need me to go over again.

Continuing on the Ho Chi Min warfront - reports are that the Democrats are the true enemy and support terrorist activity as enablers have become standard propaganda tactics of the GOP. Also a new Jane Fonda movie will be shown at 11 tonight.

RW -

So you are claiming that the WMD’s (that were known and verified as VX gas armed missiles) during Clinton’s presidency, are the same thing as the WMD’s that Bush could not verify (yet still touted vigorously) during his Presidency and reasons for war? I’m still laughing at this mis-information and propaganda.

Two different events and time periods. The Bush administration touted the WMD’s for his reasons to go to war. He was the one with the info and touted WMD’s and of course if this was true, all the senators (Kerry included) had no choice but to agree to authorize military options. However Bush failed in verifying his info - and there are obviously no huge stockpiles of Nuke’s or Nerve Gas in Iraq located to this date. Just old shells and a few remnants from the days the Good ol USA supplied Saddam with weapons to “defend” themselves from Iran.

However during Clinton’s time in Iraq we had just come out of Desert Storm, and during that period of crisis with Saddam we had verified proof of VX nerve gas warheads in Saddam’s possesion. In the end (and prior to Dubya) Saddam had agreed to dispose of his nerve gas and accept UN inspectors to verify. Of course that changed again during Dubya’.

Now there is one issue I fear you may be right on, and that bothers me to no end. Saddam very well may have secretly moved any weapons he may have actually had to Syria. This would put weapons in the hands of another hostile country right near Isreal where they could easily reach target. We may have no proof of such a thing but that is something that could have happened in theory.

But please - Clinton’s administration speeches about Saddam’s WMD’s are in no way related to Bush’s statements.

Yes, RW, he had no way to make more. If you BUY something that you don’t know how to make, and use it up, then that’s it unless you can buy more. That’s how reality works, bud. I know you’re not used to it, but that’s how it is.

Of course they aren’t Thomas. Maybe you should spend some with rushncap in his “wet lab” where he spends all day blogging on our dime.

It was just a few old VX tipped missiles which certainly explains the Clintonistas wailing about Saddam’s nukes.

Democrat fairy tales might wash in your little bubbles, but the real world isn’t buying. In any case I hope you guys keep these fantasies coming for a few more weeks, then in November you can back to b-itching about Diebold.

Once upon a time, there was a gentle sheep herder called Saddam. Saddam was a pinko and a peace activist. He attended Woodstock.

Then the evil Ronald Reagan and his lackey Bush came into power, casting the black spell over the United States.

This caused peaceful Saddam to become enraged and attack his fellow countrymen and neighbors with nerve gas, that was given to him by Dick Cheney, until he ran out.

But then our hero! Bill!! Clinton !!! came to power!!!!! ousting the evil Republicans )-: and bringing free love back to the oval office.

Saddam immediately discovered the error of mass murder and began to feed his starving children citizens with all of the oil for food money that the French and Russians never stole, no, they never touched it.

But then the black spell re emerged, even stronger than before as the spawn of Bush )-: yikes, shriek, holler, holler.

And evil Bush spawn attacked innocent child feeding Saddam and brought him to the White House dungeon where he was tried for the nerve agent that Dick Cheney planted on him.

But the United States Constitution Fairy soon swooped down on Saddam, rescuing him from the staged trial and setting him free under his 4th amendment rights.

And rushncrap lived happily ever after.

Shawny —-

Ok - as posted above to RW - your theory that Saddam’s weapons being moved to Syria just may actually have some merit. That issue is disturbing to me of course as it would be to anyone. Cudo’s on that one!

I do wish to address one issue with you though, and although I cannot blame you for being gung-ho and wish to revenge american deaths (since I think in some ways we all feel that way), I must point out that we need to do whats right, and not become sadistic and evil ourselves.

a few statistics:

World Trade Center: (2752 dead)

Please note that the dead included people from many countries including Muslims.

Kurds killed by Saddam’s attacks with rockets, shells, and Nerve gas: (approx 5000 dead.)

However Iraq killed about 200,000 Kurds with many attacks on their villages over many years seeing as the Iraqi nationals considered Kurds to be invaders of their country. Kurds also killed Iraqi’s and Turk’s as well in rebel strikes.

Iraqi Civillians Killed by our attacks during this occupation: (42000 confirmed)

Yes this too was men, women and children. This was mostly from bombs and missiles in the early strikes that had collateral damage and does not include Iraqi military personnel. It also does not include deaths from non-coalition forces such as suicide attacks.

When you compare the loss of life, we are not looking good in the world’s eyes as we have killed more civilians than any of our enemy have. That is why we must watch what we do, say, and feel, lest we become our own enemy. Yes terrorism is bad - so it needs to be curtailed and stopped where possible, yet at the same time we need to also have caring feelings at the loss of human life or we are no better than the terrorist.
