In a surprise announcement on Saturday evening, Congressman Dave Reichert declared that he has switched political parties. “The time is right for me to switch to the Democrat Par…I mean, the Democratic Party,” said Riechert who represents Washington’s 8th congressional district. “This is a move I’ve considered seriously since early last November, when I suddenly realized my independent-minded values were more in line with those of the Democrats. As my critics have pointed out, I’ve increasingly become indecisive, and that is a reflection of the inner conflict.”
When asked why he waited nearly six months to make the change, Reichert responded, “I was waiting for the right time. Today is Joel Connelly’s birthday, and I guess I saved it as a birthday surprise for him.” Also, my investigations of global warming are now complete. I’m convinced that Al Gore is right—we really do need to be manufacturing and dropping giant ice cubes into the ocean.”
Reichert’s former spokesperson Kimberly Cadena resigned last week fueling speculation that the Congressman might be considering a jump to the Democratic party. Reichert announced that Cadena will be replaced by Sandeep Kaushik, currently the part-time Deputy Communications Director for King County Executive Ron Sims.
When asked about the reaction of his former Republican colleagues Reichert replied, “Let me make one thing perfectly clear. I’ve stared down the barrel of a loaded pistol and saw my name inscribed on the tip of the bullet…you can believe I can stare into the eyes of any disgruntled Republican colleague without flinching.”
Reichert told reporters that his first priority as a new Democrat will be to “figure out how they want me to vote.” Reichert also expected he might be called upon to personally provide security for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA-08). “I moonlighted a bit as a Republican in protecting her footwear. Now, if she wants me to, I’ll be acting more as a personal sheriff for the Speaker. And let me be clear, here, that school bus drivers are on notice—you respect the Speaker because this sheriff is watching.”
Rep. Pelosi was not available for comment.

Bush Re-Nominates 3 Anti-Environment Appointees
“By Judy Pasternak
“Los Angeles Times
“WASHINGTON — The White House has renominated three people for top jobs affecting the environment who previously were blocked in Congress because of their pro-industry views.
“If necessary, said industry lobbyists and Republican aides in Congress, Bush intends to skirt the Senate approval process by making recess appointments to put the three nominees in the posts.
“All three have ties to industries that face costly Environmental Protection Agency restrictions, and all three previously have bypassed or questioned EPA’s scientific process.
“They are William Wehrum, who would head the air office of the EPA; Alex Beehler, to be the EPA’s inspector general; and Susan Dudley, who would become White House regulations czar.”

“The Democrat cut-and-run pronouncements have, without a doubt, emboldened the enemy without and the now-strident enemy within. Captured communications from Iraq as well as daily broadcasts and Internet postings from our enemies call the Democrat victory at the polls last November their victory. Anti-American protesters in Seattle and Portland seditiously burned and trampled our flag and, shockingly, even burned a U.S. soldier in effigy. This clearly demonstrates that the Islamo-fascist enemies have captured the hearts and minds of the liberal left.
“In my own neighborhood recently, a community presentation of U.S. flags and a nonpolitical “Thanks for Your Service” banner was torn down and thrown into a muddy ditch.
“This is the Democrat legacy which, if not treason, is then sedition and if the Democrats don’t nip this monster in the bud right now, it’s going to tear our community apart.
“Newspapers and politicians have dissented from every war we have ever fought, including our own Revolution; and we tolerate this. This despicable trend will not be tolerated and I call on our community to support and defend our troops even if you can’t see the virtue of the mission they are called upon to do.

@7 “There is no such thing as an ‘entitlement'”
Sure there is. Exhibit A: Your paycheck …
Roger Rabbit spews:
Redneck doesn’t even know what an “entitlement” is. None of the wingnuts do. The term doesn’t mean you automatically get money or benefits from the government. It means that when the government does promise benefits to individuals, those benefits will be paid or provided to everyone who satisfies the stated eligibility criteria, and can’t be taken away without due process of law.
Let’s use veterans benefits as an example. Veterans benefits are an entitlement. Let’s say the eligibility criteria for VA medical care are that you suffered a service-connected illness, injury, or wound; or that you’ve reached a certain age and your income is below a certain level.
Now let’s say you go to the VA to apply for VA medical benefits based on age and income. The VA denies your application on the grounds (a) you’re not a veteran, (b) you’re not old enough, (c) you have too much income, and (d) you didn’t vote for Bush. What the term “entitlement” means is that you are now entitled to a hearing, and to present evidence of your military service, age, income, and to argue that who you voted for is irrelevant and not a legal basis to determine your eligibility; and you are entitled to a decision on the evidence and arguments thus presented, written in conformity with the applicable statutes and regulations, which is legally binding on the VA and enforceable in the courts.
That’s what an “entitlement” is, Redneck. The essence of the term is “due process of law,” a concept which I realize is far beyond your understanding. So, it’s not surprising that you’re clueless about what “entitlement” means.
Mark The Redneck KENNEDY spews:

John Barelli spews:
Ok, Mr. Redneck.
My “stoopid fucking choice“, as you put it so eloquently, was to sign a contract with the United States government, known as a DD Form 2N. An enlistment contract. Personally, I thought it was a pretty good choice, but apparently you Republicans disagree.
I then made the additional “stoopid fucking choice” (again, your words) to reenlist several times, with a total of over twenty years active service.
At the beginning of that service, and at each reenlistment, I was told that I would be “entitled” to certain benefits if I fullfilled my contract.
I was told that part of the reason my active duty pay (especially at senior paygrades) was lower than my civilian counterparts was that I would receive “deferred compensation” in the form of a retirement check and medical benefits.
Now you’re telling me that because I expect the government to fulfill its part of the bargain, I’m a “fucking loser” with a mental disorder.
I suppose that you may even have a point, so long as Republicans are in office. Their track record about keeping promises to the troops is astonishingly bad. Once a military member is no longer directly in the line of fire, the Republicans have no further use for us, and are perfectly willing to break those promises made to us.
So, Mr. Redneck. Believing the United States government will keep its promises is a “stoopid fucking choice“?
Only if we leave you Republicans in charge of it. Your words say exactly what you Republicans actually think about the troops. Apparently to you, we’re just “stoopid” cannon fodder, to be thrown away as soon as you’re done with us.

Hillary Shatters Fundraising Records

To put this $26 million in perspective, the previous record (held by Al Gore) was under $9 million for a comparable period.

For the record, I’ve never considered my enlistment as a “stoopid choice.” They were drafting fathers when I enlisted; and because I volunteered, somebody else didn’t have to go. It had nothing to do with supporting, or not supporting, the war or the incumbent president’s policies; because I enlisted, some dad got to stay home and be a father to his kid.
The fact Redneck thinks that was a “stoopid choice” says nothing about my character … and everything about his character.

It so happens I don’t get free VA medical care. I buy retiree health insurance — and pay full price for it, there’s no taxpayer subsidy, not a penny. If my income was about $500 a year less, I would qualify for VA medical care. When I returned home from Vietnam, I believed with certitude that I would always have medical care for the rest of my life, no matter how poor I was, because that was a promise by our government that I could rely on come what may. It never occurred to me that some of my fellow citizens might stoop low enough to take that away from our veterans, including me. They’re called “Republicans.” People without honor, without respect for our troops, losers with nothing going for them — ’nuff said.
Roger Rabbit spews:
Truth is, I would qualify for VA medical care if Bush hadn’t raised the income threshold. That’s called “cutting benefits.” Republicans call it “supporting the troops.” Don’t kid yourself — they’re lying. They don’t support our veterans, or our troops, with anything but hot air.

In 2004, he declined to support Bush’s reelection, and in late 2006 he formally left the GOP to take a leadership position in the Libertarian Party. Two weeks ago, Barr and several other conservative heavyweights announced the founding of the American Freedom Agenda, a group opposed to what it sees as assaults on civil liberties in post-9/11 America. And in another break with his past, last week Barr, an anti-drug warrior who once led a congressional effort to block medical marijuana use in the District of Columbia, announced that he is joining the pro-legalization Marijuana Policy Project as a lobbyist.
Hmmmmmm, what the hell is going on here?!
