This is all stuff that's been floating around for years yet only now it's making the papers...

So... the other thing that should be making the papers which is more relevant to current events is the fact that the Bush family's CURRENT oil business was still working with Osama's family (FUNDING HIM) months after 9/11/2001. After the outgoing Clinton administration warned that Osama should be a top priority the Bush administration called off the search for Osama. Now they blame Clinton for 9/11.

From the Bush perspective it seems reasonable to call of the search- Osama was a business partner- the Bush family was going to make millions off the oil pipeline they were building with the Bin-Ladens... we couldn't very well be hunting him down if we want to do business with him, right? Well, it took 9/11 plus three months to stop the Bush family from sending him huge amounts of money.

Why can't the media put two and two together until it's too late to make a difference?

I'm asking you- our one reader- why???

"The majority of Americans did not vote for him (Bush). Why is he there? He's in the White House because God put him there for a time such as this."

That confirms it ... Antonin Scalia is God.

I know this seems rather silly, but Bob Novak was on Crossfire yesterday looking like Bugs Bunny- it was so distracting I had to mention it.



With these new horse teeth he's managed to make himself even more frightening to small children.

Developing...

NY Times reports on a father who has to choose between taking AIDS medication himself so he can work and provide food for his family, or giving the meds to his daughter so she can live a few years longer.

Folks, that's about as fucked up as things get.

"But the violence we write about goes to the central issue in Iraq today, at least according to Iraqis, and that is security. Without a feeling of safety, nothing much can happen in the way of progress here. Torn from today's headlines:
A new school doesn't count for much if parents are afraid their kids are going to die in it."

This is cool.

I've always had a problem with forcing children into a daily patriotic display- too "Germany circa 1939" for me... but adding that we are "one nation under God" has always annoyed me just a little bit more than the standard indoctrination. Hey, as long as we're indoctrinating little kids lets throw God on top of it!

The phrase was introduced to make sure everyone knew those school kids forced to say it every morning were not Godless commies back in the '50's.

If the Supreme Court is consistent with it's previous rulings on school prayer (They said no) and requiring kids to say the pledge (no again) then it's a no brainer. Of course, we are dealing with the most corrupt Supreme Court in history so that should make it interesting.

I've been looking for the name that would stick to the White House/CIA/Wilson scandal- I think we have a winner. Intimigate.

"But Limbaugh’s story owes more to the “Wizard of Oz” than “The Scarlet Letter.” The man behind the curtain is not the God of Family Values but a childless, twice-divorced, thrice-married schlub whose idea of a good time is to lie on his couch and watch football endlessly. When Rush Limbaugh declared to his radio audience that he was “your epitome of morality of virtue, a man you could totally trust with your wife, your daughter, and even your son in a Motel 6 overnight,” he was acting. He “regards himself as an entertainer who is very pleased that people pay attention to his political views,” says Wall Street editorial writer John Fund, who collaborated with Limbaugh on one of the radio host’s books (“The Way Things Ought to Be”)."
