  1. Once again, a Democrat is caught VOTING TWICE!!!

    Man accused of voting twice in Bush-Gore election

    August 16, 2006

    BY ABDON M. PALLASCH Legal Affairs Reporter

    If there’s one thing Donovan Riley apparently learned during his time in Chicago, it was “Vote early and often.”

    Riley, 69, the former CEO of the University of Illinois Medical Center and a former law professor at Loyola University, is running for a state senate seat in Milwaukee.

    On Nov. 7, 2000, the day of the big election between Vice President Al Gore and Texas Gov. George W. Bush, Riley appeared at the polling place in Oconomowac, Wis., where he had registered to vote just the day before, voting records show. His ex-wife owned a home there.

    “Then he drove down to Chicago where he was already registered and he voted again,” said Michael Crooks, a Wisconsin attorney who filed a complaint against Riley with Wisconsin election officials. “This is about as blatant as it gets.”

    Waukesha County District Attorney Paul Bucher said it’s usually difficult to prove such allegations. “But in this case, these documents seem to be pretty good,” he said.

    ‘I made a mistake’

    Chicago Board of Elections officials are said to be compiling documents to forward to the Cook County state’s attorney for possible prosecution.

    “My best recollection is that I was splitting my time between Wisconsin and Illinois and it’s possible I made a mistake,” Riley said in a statement released last week.

    Riley faces incumbent Jeff Pale in next month’s [B]Democratic primary election[/B] for a state senate seat in Milwaukee, 35 miles from Oconomowac.

    Riley also was a partner at the Chicago law firm of Michael Best & Friedrich.

    Now let’s see how you leftwing nutjobs try to spin this one.

  2. Number 1, pbj………….Post Of The Day!! More voter fraud from “guvment” Democrats. OK……..Solution: make voter fraud a capital offense. Kill this POS Democrat! Hang him!! [Jesse and Al would be there to “minister” to him on his last POS day, and to register him to vote Democrat in NOV 08!]

  3. ‘Stay the Course’ is so passe. Ken Mehlman says the strategy isn’t staying the course, but “win by adapting”.

    In other words, whatever we say is the right strategy.

    Pretty brilliant, eh? They don’t know what the fuck they’re doing but they’re “adapting.”

  4. inois Senator Barack Obama, a charismatic and gifted public speaker who just might be the Democrats’ best hope of electing another president someday, has a bit of a problem. You see, it would appear the good Senator doesn’t practice what he preaches. I know .. what a surprise for a politician! This has long been a problem for those on the Left, with Al Gore being one of the biggest offenders.

    At any rate, Obama was giving a speech recently at one of his town hall meetings in which he said that global warming was caused by gas guzzling vehicles. He said people should switch to hybrids, and that “It would save more energy, do more for the environment and create better world security than all the drilling we could do in Alaska.” Yeah … and if we all walked think of how much oil we could save! Anyway … moving right along here …..

    So after the speech, did the good Senator go outside, get into his Toyota Prius and zip off toward home? Uh..no. The media caught him getting into….you guessed it…an SUV. A “tricked out” [upgraded] GMC Envoy, to be exact. Obama even admitted that he liked SUVs. It would seem we have a bit of hypocrisy on our hands. When called out on it, Obama’s staff went into spin overdrive…claiming that the Envoy was a Flexible Fuel Vehicle that can run on E85, or ethanol-based fuels. In fact, they say the Senator fills the SUV up with ethanol whenever he can!

    But there’s a problem with that, too. The GMC Envoy is not E85-ready. Ooops. Libs: hypocrites and liars. Bottom line: Although black, Obama’s last name is NOT Kennedy, so he has a hard time pulling off shit like this.

  6. How excited Democratic NJ Governor was when he posted this announcement 7 months ago:
    CORZINE NAMES ZULIMA FARBER AS ATTORNEY GENERAL
    Former Public Advocate to Serve as Top Law Enforcement Official
    1/11/2006

    TRENTON – Governor-elect Jon S. Corzine today nominated Zulima V. Farber, a long-time partner at one of New Jersey’s most prominent law firms and the state’s former public advocate and public defender, to serve as Attorney General.

    “I am very proud to announce that Zulima Farber will join my Cabinet as Attorney General,” Corzine said. “Her outstanding accomplishments, background and skills will serve the people of New Jersey well and I truly look forward to working with her in the coming years.”

    Farber is with the Lowenstein Sandler firm, which she joined in 1981, becoming a partner in 1986. She has more than 30 years of litigation experience in both state and federal courts. She served as New Jersey Public Advocate and Public Defender from 1992 to 1994 in Governor James Florio’s Cabinet.

    Before going to Lowenstein and Sandler, Farber served as assistant counsel to Governor Brendan Byrne and as assistant prosecutor in Bergen County. Farber is a member, and former chairperson, of the New Jersey State Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. She serves on the New Jersey Commission to Review Criminal Sentencing. During the transition period, Farber served as a co-chair of Governor-elect Corzine’s Ethics Advisory Group, a bipartisan group principally charged with implementing his ethics agenda.

    She earned a J.D. from Rutgers University Law School and a B.A. and M.A. from Montclair State College (now called Montclair State University). She lives in North Bergen.

    “I am honored and humbled by this nomination,” said Farber. “I thank Governor-elect Corzine for his confidence in me and for the opportunity to serve the people of this state as the Attorney General. These are particularly challenging times, and I look forward to working with Governor Corzine and his Cabinet to improve the lives of all New Jerseyans.”

  7. Predictably—-It ended yesterday:

    Farber Quits as New Jersey Attorney General on Ethics (Update1)
    Aug. 15 (Bloomberg) — New Jersey Attorney General Zulima Farber resigned today after a special prosecutor said she violated the state’s ethics code by improperly helping her boyfriend at police traffic stop.

    Farber, 61, quit hours after retired state judge Richard Williams wrote in a report that while she broke no criminal laws, she failed to “ensure that the laws were faithfully and fairly enforced.” Farber, the state’s first Hispanic attorney general, said at a news conference with Governor Jon Corzine that she would leave office after seven months rather than defend herself.

    “I resign out of respect for the governor and for the goals we both share for the success of this administration,” Farber told reporters at the statehouse in Trenton. “Such a fight would be a tremendous distraction.”

    The resignation of Farber is a setback for Corzine, a Democrat who won election last November after pledging to clean up the ethics of state government. Corzine, 59, said that he didn’t ask Farber to resign, although he said her decision was correct. The resignation followed calls from state politicians including Democratic State Senator John Adler, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, for Farber to quit.

    “While Zulima has been strong and effective as attorney general, the report from Judge Williams would inevitably impair that effectiveness and risk undermining people’s confidence in this office and in our state government,” Corzine said. “She recognizes that. I recognize that.”

  8. While academic leftists, and I’d include their media allies, are not communists, they are anti-anti-communists. In other words, they have contempt for right-wingers, conservatives or libertarians who are anti-communists. Why? Academic leftists, and their media allies, are in agreement with many of the stated goals of communism, such as equal distribution of wealth, income equality and other goals spelled out in Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels’ “Manifesto of the Communist Party.” Leftist elites love the ideas of communism so much that they are either blind to, or tolerant of, its many shortcomings.

    In practice, communism is nothing less than sheer barbarism that makes even the horrors of Nazism pale in comparison. Professor Rudolph J. Rummel of the University of Hawaii outlines that barbarism in his book “Death by Government,” a comprehensive detailing of the roughly 170 million people murdered by their own governments during the 20th century. From 1917 to its collapse in 1991, the Soviet Union murdered about 62 million of its own people. During Mao Tse-tung’s reign, 35,236,000, possibly more, Chinese citizens were murdered. By comparison, Hitler’s Nazis managed to murder 21 million of its citizens and citizens in nations they conquered. Adding these numbers to the 60 million lives lost in war makes the 20th century mankind’s most brutal era.

    At home and abroad, leftists have done a thorough and commendable job documenting and condemning the horrors and crimes of Hitler and his fascist Nazi regime, but when have you heard them direct similar condemnation of Joseph Stalin, his successors and Mao Tse-tung? By and large, they’ve chosen to overlook the horrors of communism.

  9. It gets even worse!!
    Motor vehicle records show that Farber, 61, has had at least 12 speeding tickets, four bench warrants issued for her arrest and three license suspensions.

    “She is incapable of leading the fight against official misconduct and abuse of power because her conduct indicates that she does not even recognize what those things are,” said state chairman Tom Wilson.

    Do Democrats ever do background checks on appointees?????
    How could Corzine even consider this person 7 months ago?

  10. 18. Theory needs to work in practice:

    exhibit 1.

    “There will not be a coalition victory against the insurgents,” he said. “That is a problem for the national security forces and the national government. We cannot win the insurgency. What I can do is provide the conditions for them to be successful, and I have the troops I need to do that.”

    Maj. Gen. Richard C. Zilmer coalition commander of Anbar province, Iraq.

    exhibit 2

    Hezbollah lauched its largest missile attack on day 34, the day before the cease fire.

  12. “win by adapting”

    That’s a stinky spin on “stay the course”. To be expected from Mehlman and the RNC.

    The GOP is the INSANE party, the party of “stay the course”, i.e. repeat the same failed policies expecting different results.

  13. After five decades of watching their white neighbors leave the city of Detroit by the thousands, Detroit’s African-Americans have begun to follow. Detroit’s black population fell 10 percent from 2000 to 2005, according to population estimates released today by the U.S. Census Bureau. The decline reverses Detroit’s 50-year trend of attracting African-Americans even as the city’s overall population fell. [……………………………………………………………………Yet another example of Democrat voter fraud: Note that the number of Democrat votes coming out of Detroit has increased EVERY year.

  16. “I don’t belong to an organized political party. I’m a Democrat. – Will Rogers.

    pbj on the earlier thread, and JCH on this one – “Now let’s see how you leftwing nutjobs try to spin this one.”

    (Seems like this was posted on an earlier open thread as well. Hey, I’ve got “cut and paste” too! Of course, I’m copying my own post rather than someone else’s)

    No spin needed. If the account is true, then he should bow out ot the race, cooperate with investigators and plead guilty.

    Of course, I’m reluctant to simply convict based on a newspaper story that cannot even get the name of his opponent (the incumbent) right. It’s spelled “Plale”, not “Pale”.

    Actually, my first reaction was that this fellow might be one of those right-wing LaRouch nutjobs that keep rearing their ugly heads. Honesty compels me to say that, at least according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinal, Mr. Riley is the more liberal of the two candidates.

    Oh, and while Mr. Riley’s claim to have a somewhat hazy recollection of the election, it should be noted that the election in question was six years ago.

    Still, honesty is more important than political position, and if the claims are true, he should face the music.

    Oh, and for JCH. How could pbj’s comment be considered racist? A bit snarky, perhaps, but not racist. In fact, the person bringing race into this discussion seems to be on the right.

    Perhaps you’re still stinging just a bit from Senator Allen’s little gaff? Trying to distract attention from a crowd of Republicans applauding his using a racial epithet while “welcoming” a native Virginian to “this country”?

    No, that couldn’t be it. After all, we’ve all heard the loud cries from the many Republicans that are roundly condemning Senator Allen and demanding that he step down. Certainly the strong public statements from the White House have made it clear that Republicans simply won’t stand for that kind of thing within their party.

    Odd, somehow I missed reading them. Must be the fault of that pesky left-wing press.

  17. Yesterday I heard an interview with the soldier who turned over the photos of the prisoner abuse at Abu Grahab (sp?) to the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division. He felt that what he saw in the pictures was wrong, a violation of the Military Code of Justice, and his duty was to inform the proper authorities. He didn’t know what action they would take – reform in the prison, company punishment, or prosecution. But he felt he had to do his duty.

    Coming from a National Guard Unit, he was justifiably concerned that he might be the target of unwanted attention, both in his military unit and upon his return home, if his role in revealing the scandal was made public. After all, the soldiers all come from the same area, and several of them may be dismissed from the military, or go to jail.

    The JAG prosecutors assured him that his identity would remain protected, except (and unless) his testimony was needed at trial. Otherwise they would do everything in their power to keep his identity secret.

    The prosecutors lived up to their promises. But his role in the scandal was made public anyway. His mother called him from home to warn him that his name was all over television, and harrassing and threatening phone calls were already being received at their home.

    He quickly called the CID officers, who within hours had him on a plane out of Iraq to an “undisclosed location”. They informed him that he could never go home again, and after his release from the service they would help him find a new location to live.

    So who would compromise the safety of this soldier who bravely informed the proper authorities of this violation of the Geneva Convention and the Code of Military Justice? Was it the liberal New York Times, or the Washington Post?

    No. It was Secty of Defense Rumsfield, who volunteered the information in a Congressional hearing, to praise the soldier as an example of the fine young Americans who are fighting the war against terror in Iraq, and who deserve our support by unquestioning continued support for the policies of the Bush Administration.

    Rumsfield chose to recklessly broadcast the name of this soldier in order to make a minor, and cheap, political point, either because he was too stupid to take the five seconds it might take to think through the consequences, or because he was aware of the consequences, and decided to ignore them.

    So much for supporting our troops in Iraq, even the one he praises as being a fine example of an American soldier.

  18. Just heard a McGavick commercial on the radio.

    Civility…>NOT!

    Peronsal attacks on Cantwell…McGavick can’t keep his word for even his first commercial…

  19. Are you kidding me?
    Everyone in the sandbox knows that Rumsfeld put the kid’s name into the press on purpose as payback.
    Poor kid’s just lucky they didn’t stuff his pockets with kiddie porn and push him off a cliff.

  20. In what can only be described as a crushing defeat, the Nazi-Christian-RightWing-BibleThumpin’-inbred republican morons in the St.Louis, MO area that tried to ban people from living together who weren’t married, were forced to back up, give up, and cut and run when the ACLU bravely filed suit. The city council decided it would loooooooose the case and punked out. Take that righties. Next time you tell us you’re for less government, try actually acting like it and don’t try to tell us who we can and can’t live with you fucking lying piece of shit asswipe fuckheads!

  21. “I don’t belong to an organized political party. I’m a Democrat.” – Will Rogers.

    Leftout quoted a news story saying:

    Farber, 61, quit hours after retired state judge Richard Williams wrote in a report that while she broke no criminal laws, she failed to “ensure that the laws were faithfully and fairly enforced.”

    Hmmm. A Democrat realized that, while she “broke no criminal laws”, her behavior was neither appropriate nor ethical. Because of this realization, she chose to resign her position and face the consequences.

    Wow! Could we get more politicians (on both sides) to follow this example? Please?

  24. McSafeco sounds like a whiney little priss when he talks and all the Rovian tricks in the bag won’t get him elected here.

  25. I was just writing an article on the history of the Vietnam war, when I came to the point where Nixon announced and “agreement in principle” to end the Vietnam war shortly before the 1972 presidential elections. This announcement effectively took the steam out of the anti-war movement’s support of McGovern, and solidified Nixon’s claim to being a foreign-policy master, including the thawing of relations with the Soviet Union and the start of the process to recognize the P.R. of China.

    Nixon went on to win the 1972 election by a landslide. Of course, the treaty wasn’t signed until after the “Christmas Bombing Campaign of Dec. 1972, after the election. And there was that little matter of the buglers being caught at the Watergate hotel.

    But it got me thinking about an “October Suprise” by Rove and Bush. Isn’t it likely that no matter what the details of the situation in Iraq come October, you can expect some sort of high-impact announcement from the White House? Of course, we have been expecting some sort of “terrorist threat” to be disclosed – they probably have a few already in their pocket, waiting to be used a couple of months from now.

    But I’m thinking of a bigger announcement – something to the effect that the war has been won, and there is a timetable for withdrawing troops (although it cannot be published)?

    Of course, after the November elections Bush can do whatever he wants regarding troop levels in Iraq, claiming a change in circumstances or whatever. But I’m going to be real surprised if we don’t see some such announcement in late October.

    According to Dick Cheney, your opinion places you in the pro-Al Qaeda segment of the American populace. You must keep some vicious company.

  28. rhp6033,

    Yep, I remember the 1972 election fairly well. I actually did a bit of work for the McGovern campaign ’cause I disliked Tricky Dick so much. (That was before I knew about the Libertarians.)

    McGovern, a B-17 pilot from WW-II, was pretty well overwhelmed by the Republicans and some dirty tricks. McGovern came across as pretty anti-military, pro-abortion, and pro-amnesty (for the guys who went to Canada instead of the Vietnam conflict.) A lot of those ideas didn’t sit well with the average joe of the time. I remember this snotty little shit named Donald Segretti (SP?) and that Libby character. Those guys were some real assholes! Their dirty tricks got Nixon back in the White House, but a country lawyer from North Carolina was pretty instrumental in insuring Tricky Dick “retired” early, with the Watergate Hearings. I think that country lawyer was Sam Ervin, but it has been over 30 years since this all occurred. I may have the name wrong.

  29. “I don’t belong to an organized political party. I’m a Democrat.” – Will Rogers.

    Just to remind ourselves that there are still a few thoughtful conservatives that the NeoCons haven’t yet run out of the Republican party, George Will’s latest column has some interesting things to say regarding John Kerry:

    “Cooperation between Pakistani and British law enforcement (the British draw upon useful experience combating IRA terrorism) has validated John Kerry’s belief (as paraphrased by the New York Times Magazine of Oct. 10, 2004) that “many of the interdiction tactics that cripple drug lords, including governments working jointly to share intelligence, patrol borders and force banks to identify suspicious customers, can also be some of the most useful tools in the war on terror.”

    and

    “In a candidates’ debate in South Carolina (Jan. 29, 2004), Kerry said that although the war on terror will be “occasionally military,” it is “primarily an intelligence and law enforcement operation that requires cooperation around the world.”

    The entire column is available at:

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/.....01163.html

    I often find myself in disagreement with Mr. Will, but even when I think he’s dead wrong, I have to admire his reasoning. (I wish that I could find some flaw with his reasoning in the other part of that column, but I have a nasty feeling that he just might be right.)

    He’s also shown that he can think for himself, which has caused him to criticise the President and the administration on a pretty regular basis these days.

    Of course, the NeoCons will keep trying to purge anyone that dares to disagree with the current administration, so it’s probably just a matter of time before we’re able to welcome George to the Democratic party.

    C’mon over, George! Anyone capable of rational thought and well-reasoned, fact-based arguments is still welcome here!

    My worst fault is that I like to spend too much time in The Beach Tavern in Tacoma drinking Mac & Jack’s African Amber.

  31. Looks like our defenses against peace loving mooslim terrorists are working pretty well. President Bush should be commended for setting up the organizations and procsses that prevented two terror attacks. The fact that the gel bombers failed to blow up airplanes, and the pakistan container at POS were detected before they could do anything is certainly rock solid evidence that our security systems are working well.

    Bad day for moonbats though…

  33. “I don’t belong to an organized political party. I’m a Democrat.” – Will Rogers.

    Mark the Redneck stated:

    “President Bush should be commended for setting up the organizations and procsses that prevented two terror attacks.”

    Uh, Mark? Last time I checked, it was the British that prevented those attacks. President Bush and the Republicans were busy cutting the Homeland Security budget at the time.

    Of course, the fact that there were attacks to be stopped in the first place makes it a bad day for us “moonbats”. Pretty bad day for everyone else, too.

  34. A Boulder County DA Investigator is bringing back a suspect in the JonBenet Ramsey murder case to the United States. The suspect was arrested in Bangkok Thailand this morning. The suspect has confessed to certain elements of the crime that are unknown to the general public. […….Thailand…….GBS………..GBS………Thailand…………….Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?????]

  35. I watched this commercial twice to see if there was a message, but all I got was: We are different.

    And where are they different, what’s the plan ? I think this commercial stops where it could make a diff.

  36. Libertarian at 29: Yep, I think you are right – the gentleman from N. Carolina of which you speak was Sen. Sam Ervin. A

    nd the Republican on the committee which made me most proud was my own State’s Senator, Jim Baker of Tennessee. He kept asking: “What did the President know, and when did he know it?” It turned out to be one of the more embarrasing questions for the Nixon administration.

    Those where the days when I could say that most of those in Congress were gentleman (and gentleladies), no matter what side of the aisle they sat upon.

  37. Libertarian @29 or thereabouts

    The fact that Karl Rove was a protege of Donald Segretti should tell anyone all they need to know about either one.

  38. 31
    Such faults tend to condemn a guy to a lifetime of contedness and insufficient worry. Time spent at a tavern quaffing fine ales with amiable companions is time that should be spent alone in a dark basement in front of a computer screen trying to figure out where the next terrorist attack might be coming from.

  40. JB at 30: Kerry (and George Will) are right. This is not WWIII, unless Bush/Cheney/Rumsfield succeed in turning it into one. The closest historical analogy is the age of Carribean piracy.

    The Carribean pirates of the 16th through 18th century took turns between being pirates for plunder, and privateers on behalf of one government or another. When acting as pirates, they sometimes enjoyed the tolerance of local governments in return for bribes or promises to leave their shipping unmolested.

    It was only in the first half of the 18th century that piracy in the Carribean was effectively eliminated as a threat, when all the governments (British, French, and Spanish) determined that it was in their mutual best interests to act together against this threat to their shipping. Deprived of safe harbours throughout the world, the pirates soon found that their careers on the high seas were short ones.

  41. TURNER, Maine (AP) – Residents are wondering if an animal found dead over the weekend may be the mysterious creature that has mauled dogs, frightened residents and been the subject of local legend for half a generation.

    The animal was found near power lines along Route 4 on Saturday, apparently struck by a car while chasing a cat. The carcass was photographed and inspected by several people who live in the area, but nobody is sure exactly what it is.

    Michelle O’Donnell of Turner spotted the animal near her yard about a week before it was killed. She called it a “hybrid mutant of something.”

    “It was evil, evil looking. And it had a horrible stench I will never forget,” she told the Sun Journal of Lewiston. “We locked eyes for a few seconds and then it took off. I’ve lived in Maine my whole life and I’ve never seen anything like it.”

    For the past 15 years, residents across Androscoggin County have reported seeing and hearing a mysterious animal with chilling monstrous cries and eyes that glow in the night. The animal has been blamed for attacking and killing a Doberman pinscher and a Rottweiler the past couple of years.

    People from Litchfield, Sabattus, Greene, Turner, Lewiston and Auburn have come forward to speak of a mystery monster that roams the woods. Nobody knows for sure what it is, and theories have ranged from a hyena or dingo to a fisher or coydog, an offspring of a coyote and a wild dog.

    Now, people are asking if the mystery beast and the animal killed over the weekend are one and the same. [………………….Has anyone heard from GBS lately? Note GBS has not posted since the death of this strange animal in Maine.]

  42. John Craig, you old queer:

    Have you yet appologised for lying and claiming that Dick Morris was called a Jew Bastard by Hillary Clinton? I note that you have yet to post a single citation that supports your claim.

  45. It is interesting that the only arguement that the GOP can make, “Stay the Course” bascially boils down to “We’ve been wrong so long, we have to get something right eventually.”

    Strangely enough, it seems to be the theory most of the wingnuts operate on, since actually having facts to support their position is so hard to do.

    Heck, for a good example, check out George “The Amazing Maccaca” Allen’s fourth or fifth explanation for slinging a racial slur and some one.

  47. Yes JDB George Allen was stupid. But where is your voice when a moonbat says something stupid?

    Good to have your priorities straight.

  49. JCH at too many too mention:

    I spent a good part of my evening last night asking you come to Seattle on my dime. The offer stands.

    Until you identify yourself, though others have done so here and quite accurately I might add, on your own here, your words fall on deaf ears. You aren’t changing anyone’s mind, you are just giving yourself a hard-on. No one is impressed except you.

    You can do all the Tookie jokes, homosexual references and toilet humor you wish, but unless and until you stand behind your hate filled mantra, you have no credibility.

    Sir, you are no former officer. No former officer I know behaves in a manner mirroring your actions and words. Your ignorance is exceeded only by lack of intelligence and sensitivity to your fellow humans.

    That said, I will no longer address you or answer the hyperbolic bullshit that eminates from what passes as your mind.

    I would encourage all HA posters to do the same and ignore JCH. Eventually, like Mr Cyniclown and SoupySales, he will wander off and attempt to feed his wildly undeserved ego elsewhere.

    Thank you.

    No, what Senator Allen said was racist, his excuses were stupid.

    And I’m perfectly willing to criticise Democrats when it is deserved. I’m just thankful that 99% of the time they aren’t this stupid and keep changing their excuses making things much worse.

  51. War Of Words: In a CBS interview, Iran’s leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad seemed to be reading from the Democratic Party’s playbook — more proof that outrageous attacks on President Bush provide ammo to terrorists.

    It seemed at times that Howard Dean might have been standing behind CBS’ Mike Wallace holding up cue cards to coach Mahmoud. Here’s a comparison of some of the Iranian head of state’s remarks in his “60 Minutes” interview, along with some comments by prominent Democrats:

    Ahmadinejad: “We support whoever is victimized and oppressed, even the oppressed people of the U.S. . . . I am very saddened to hear 1% of the total population is in prison. And 45 million people don’t have (health care coverage). That is very sad to hear.”

    House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., speaking to the NAACP’s 97th annual convention last month: “The public is aware that one in five children lives in poverty; that 46 million Americans have no health insurance; 6 million hardworking Americans making minimum wage have not gotten a raise in nine years.”

    Ahmadinejad: “The problem that President Bush has is in his mind he wants to solve everything with bombs.”

    Rep. Fortney Stark, D-Calif., in March of 2003: “I think unleashing 3,000 smart bombs against the city of Baghdad in the first several days of the war . . . to me, if those were unleashed against the San Francisco Bay Area, I would call that an act of extreme terrorism.”

    Ahmadinejad: “We think that Mr. Bush’s team and the parties that support him want to monopolize energy resources in the world. . . . And of course line their own pockets.”

    Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., who heads Senate fundraising for Democrats in this year’s elections, speaking in February: “Allowing big oil and gas companies to pad their record profits (with) royalties owed to the American taxpayer would be like giving a box of chocolates to a candy maker on Valentine’s Day.”

    Once again he LeftHisTurdBehindLostHisBrain. Apparently LeftHisTurdBehindLostHisBrain forgot Missouri politics or is JUST PLAIN STUPID. “Those delayed St. Louis city returns — long a Democratic stronghold and nearly 4-1 Democratic this year — pushed Mel Carnahan past Ashcroft.”

  54. John Craig:

    Please post a single post of me standing up for McKinney, either Kennedy, Jefferson, Jackson or Sharpton on the issues you indicate?

    Oh, that’s right, once again you have no proof because it never happened.

    I have to give you something John Craig, you might be an old tired queer, but you are consistant in your lies.

  56. JohnBarelli@34 Over time, you will note that most of the messages from MarkandtheRetardedRednecks are primarily hateful, vitriolic attacks on anything identifiable as liberal or democratic. While they characterize themselve as “producers” they never have a constructive thought. They are primarily concerned with destroying civil liberties, thoughtful and cooperative efforts to curb terrorism, and above all, attacking anything feminine. In short, they are a cartoonish depiction of fifteen year-old neo-con punks. . .in spite of any claimed professional attainments. They have stunted intellects, and have even more limited emotions.

  57. LeftHisTurdBehindLostHisBrain, we all realize anything that looks conservative or Christian causes you to retch. If you took a few minutes and validated the commentary you gleefully post on AssesHorse, you would be skipped over as an ASS instead of the Hole you really are. Your posts are so easily disproved, it took just a little searching. Now I’m no Internet Jedi Master but I do remember John Ashcroft’s strange “loss” due to polling irregularities and how he didn’t push it, unlike Al Gore!

  58. If we are neo-con punks, why does your side hate Israel? Did you watch the London, England protest march where they said they were all Hezbollah now? And who were the “upstanding” individuals? Pierced and tattooed punks of the librul variety!

  59. rhp6033@41 I have one small quibble. Carribean piracy has never been completely eliminated. There is a well developed and persistent criminal element that exists to this day across multiple islands, and even occasionally breaks out into outright piracy directed against private yachts. So far,I haven’t heard of any attacks against commercial shipping, such as have occured off the coast of Somalia, and along the Java Straights. Some of these modern day pirates are simply thugs, but some are attempts by terrorists to finance themselves. Unfortunately, many of the wrongheaded policies of the current administration seem to be fostering a “return to those thrilling days of yesteryear”.

  62. Gee, Mr Webb, I am a Democrat, Liberal and very pro Israel. Where do you get your info that OUR side is anti-Israel. The trouble stems from your steadfast ability to brand, anyone who questions the RightWingNuts, as traitors, heathens and mongrels. The truth is, asshole, that this nations security depends a great deal on, not only the well being of Israel, but directly on the intel that they provide on an ongoing basis.

    Only a moron, you are a great example, would paint such a broad stroke with a brush loaded with a color you can’t see. It never ceases to amaze me that you RightWingNuts will go to any length, tell any lie to make yourselves seem right. A lie is a lie is a lie. You can’t make a purse out of a sows ear, dumbass.

  67. A Morality Tale…

    It started out innocently enough. I began to think at parties now and then– just to loosen up. Inevitably, though, one thought led to another, and soon I was more than just a social thinker.

    I began to think alone — “to relax,” I told myself — but I knew it wasn’t true. Thinking became more and more important to me, and finally I was thinking all the time.

    That was when things began to sour at home. One evening I turned off the TV and asked my wife about the meaning of life. She spent that night at her mother’s. I began to think on the job. I knew that thinking and employment don’t mix, but I couldn’t help myself.

    I began to avoid friends at lunchtime so I could read Thoreau, Muir, Confucius and Kafka. I would return to the office dizzied and confused, asking, “What is it exactly we are doing here?”

    One day the boss called me in. He said, “Listen, I like you, and it hurts me to say this, but your thinking has become a real problem. If you don’t stop thinking on the job, you’ll have to find another job.”

    This gave me a lot to think about. I came home early after my conversation with the boss. “Honey,” I confess, “I’ve been thinking…”

    “I know you’ve been thinking,” she said, “and I want a divorce!”

    “But Honey, surely it’s not that serious.”

    “It is serious,” she said, lower lip aquiver. “You think as much as college professors and college professors don’t make any money, so if you keep on thinking, we won’t have any money!”

    “That’s a faulty syllogism,” I said impatiently.

    She exploded in tears of rage and frustration, but I was in no mood to deal with the emotional drama.

    “I’m going to the library,” I snarled as I stomped out the door.

    I headed for the library, in the mood for some Nietzsche. I roared into the parking lot with NPR on the radio and ran up to the big glass doors. They didn’t open. The library was closed.

    To this day, I believe that a Higher Power was looking out for me that night. Leaning on the unfeeling glass, whimpering for Zarathustra, a poster caught my eye, “Friend, is heavy thinking ruining your life?” it asked.

    You probably recognize that line. It comes from the standard Thinkers Anonymous poster.

    This is why I am what I am today: a recovering thinker. I never miss a TA meeting. At each meeting we watch a non-educational video; last week it was “Porky’s.” Then we share experiences about how we avoided thinking since the last meeting.

    I still have my job, and things are a lot better at home. Life just seemed…easier, somehow, as soon as I stopped thinking. I think the road to recovery is nearly complete for me.

    Today I took the final step………… I joined the Democratic Party.

  68. OUCH!

    Obama is having a very badddd week… 1st his hypocrisy on SUV’s and now his heralding of his party’s phony religiousity is excoriated…

    Rockford, Illinois Bishop Says Dem’s “a clear and present danger” to US survival as a nation”
    Abortion, buggery, contraception, divorce, euthanasia, radical feminism, genetic experimentation and mutilation, called seven “sacraments” of party

    By Hilary White

    ROCKFORD, August 16, 2006 – Abortion, buggery, contraception, divorce, euthanasia, radical feminism, genetic experimentation and mutilation, are the seven “sacraments” of “one” US political party says the Bishop of the Catholic diocese of Rockford Illinois.

    While stopping short of telling his flock how to vote, and without naming the Democrats by name, Bishop Thomas George Doran wrote in a column in the local diocesan newspaper that these “unholy sacraments of our secular culture are the seeds of the destruction of our nation.” He said that the continuance in office of those espousing them represent a “clear and present danger” to the survival of the US as a nation.

    Bishop Doran, leader of the Rockford diocese’s 418,891 Catholics exhorts voters to “think for yourself” and ask, “what nation that kills its young, perverts marriage, prevents new life, and destroys the family, kills those deemed useless, makes the war of the sexes into a real war, and manipulates the genetic basis of human nature, can long endure?”

    He writes that while looking “askance” at the German people for their historical role in the deaths of 50 million people during the Nazi period, we in North America have blinded ourselves to the deaths of 40 million of unborn citizens since 1973. “No doubt,” he says, “we shall soon outstrip the Nazis in doing human beings to death.”

    He describes a slippery slope that begins with toleration of the killing of “the tiniest innocents among us,” and leads to habituation to violence in other forms. “we have allowed these barbaric practices to corrupt our laws, our medical practice, and even our ordinary lives.”

    He lists toleration for sexual perversions, “widespread contraception, easy access to “no fault” divorce, the killing of the elderly, radical feminism, embryonic stem cell research” as things that “defile and debase our human nature and our human destiny.”

In fact, it continues to be the gift that keeps on giving. Houston recorded a 17.5% increase in homicides since the evacuees landed there. In fact 21% of the homicides in that city involved a Katrina refugee. The New Orleans gangs that Houston has imported continue to cause problems. The Sheriff’s department has reported a 41% increase in felony arrests. [……………………………………………………………………..OK, How many of these fine young black Democrats did Democrat controlled San Francisco take?

    Spreaking of fraud, Looks like Libby’s were wrong to back Lamont. He’s about to morph into Lieberman. Read: “NY TIMES WEDS: Ned Lamont preparing to shake up staff, refocus his race in appeal to Connecticut moderates.” Suckers, you are. Lamont knows the Liberal message is a ticket to doom in an election. No Libby Senate. No Libby Congress. No Libby White House. No Libby Governorships of the 4-most populated States (Where most Libby’s LIVE!) And no Libby Judiciary. Lamont is basically telling you Libby’s TO SHUT T.F. UP! (Because you’re killing him in the polls). That’s why the Libby’s on his staff are being replaced with MODERATES. (Dudes). But it won’t work. It will turn off the Liberals, some will sit it out. And Moderates already have a clear choice WITH EXPERIENCE. The oldest lesson in politics is if you screw with your base you’re toast. Lieberman isn’t changing a thing. Lamont blinked first. He has no backbone to stand up for what he believes. You can be sure Lamont heard a load over that picture of him with “The Reverend” Jackson and Sharpton. I can’t wait to hear the race-baiters reaction to “The Lamont Shuffle”. Heh heh. Notice the heh heh moonbats? It’s our code words.

  80. The ONLY way the Democrats will win in 06 and 08 is with 20% voter fraud in large urban, black and cities and illegal alien votes. Democrats must achieve 115% turnout of registration, and, in my best guess, will!! Any and all questions about voter fraud in Chicago, Philly, Detroit, Cleveland, Atlanta, Gary, and LA will be considered “racist” and will not be allowed. Expect additional voter fraud in Columbus, OH and Broward County, FL. The sad fact is the Dems will pull it off.

  81. 80, cont……..Oh, add in Milwaukee, WIS for a few thousand Democrat votes that are without merit. AND the Dems will get away with the crimes of voter fraud.

  82. John Craig:

    Do you ever post anything that is true?

    Or do you feel you have to cover for the fact that the Party of Failure, the GOP, can only win by jamming phones ( http://www.washingtonpost.com/.....01712.html ; http://www.washingtonpost.com/.....01712.html ), disenfranchising voters ( http://archives.cnn.com/2001/A......election/ ; http://www.motherjones.com/new.....avote.html), and rigging the counts ( http://www.washingtonpost.com/.....Jan23.html ; http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/20...../main.html ).

    Now John Craig, your syphilitic mind might not understand, but those things inside the parentheses are called citations. You see, that means that there is some proof of what I say being right.

    On the other hand, things you say, like that Hillary Clinton once called Dick Morris a “Jew Bastard” are simply lies. Which is why you can never produce a citation. Or is it that your syphilitic little mind has a problem getting around the idea of cut and pasting?

    Well, I guess facts aren’t that important when you make a living putting your lips around sailors.

  83. On the other hand, things you say, like that Hillary Clinton once called Dick Morris a “Jew Bastard” are simply lies. Which is why you can never produce a citation. Or is it that your syphilitic little mind has a problem getting around the idea of cut and pasting?

    This was proven by MWS JDB. Apparently you missed it. The person passed a lie detector test and has never been sued by the Clintons. Why do you still post lies JDB?

    http://frontpagemag.com/Articl.....sp?ID=3863

    Also I found the other reference by MWS?

    “The following is from the New York Post during the 2000 Senate campaign against Rick Lazio.

    Hillary Accuser Cleared in Polygraph

    NEW YORK, Aug. 22 (UPI) — The former campaign director who claimed that the first lady called him a “f—ing Jew b——” after Bill Clinton lost his race for Congress 26 years ago passed a lie-detector test arranged by the New York Post.

    “I proved it today. I knew I was telling the truth all along. The truth will set you free-and I’m free of this question,” Paul Fray told the New York Post after he was informed he had passed the test.

    “I don’t want the people in the state of New York, and particularly the Jewish community, to attach any undue significance to this,” he added. “I want her to win the race. If I was a registered voter in the state of New York, I would vote for her. She will make an excellent senator.”

    Fray, 57, offered to take a polygraph test to prove he was not lying and the New York Post took him up and his offer and chose Jeff Hubanks, who has administered about 400 to 500 exams, from a list of accredited examiners.

    “There’s no doubt in my mind that Mr. Fray is truthful,” said Hubanks, a state-licensed Arkansas polygrapher, who administered the three-hour test last Sunday in Little Rock, Ark..

    The findings were reviewed Monday by another expert, Richard Keifer, a former head of the FBI’s polygraph unit with 20 years of experience. Keifer told the Post that he judged the results “inconclusive” because they didn’t meet the high federal polygraph standards — but that he found nothing to indicate Fray was lying.

    Keifer said Hubanks relied on a controversial questioning technique that isn’t endorsed by the FBI but that it appeared there were no other options in this case to establish a benchmark for measuring Fray’s physiological responses. He credited Hubanks for conducting a “professional exam.”

    Hubanks asked two similar questions to determine if Fray was being truthful about whether Hillary Clinton made the anti-Semitic remark. The questions were: “Did you hear Hillary call you a “f—ing Jew b——?” and “Did you hear Hillary call you a “f—ing Jew b—— in 1974?” Under the FBI’s scoring system, Keifer said, Fray’s combined answer to two questions about the slur would be evaluated as inconclusive but the rating system used by Hubanks indicated Fray’s response is truthful.

    “The one thing I didn’t see was deception,” Keifer said.

    Fray’s allegation first appeared last month in the book, “State of a Union: Inside the Complex Marriage of Bill and Hillary Clinton,” by Jerry Oppenheimer, a celebrity biographer. The book is published by HarperCollins. Oppenheimer wrote that the anti-Semitic slur was uttered by Mrs. Clinton, who was not yet married to the president, on Election night in 1974 in a fight in the back room of Bill Clinton’s congressional campaign headquarters in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Fray’s wife and a campaign worker, Neil McDonald, both confirmed Fray’s account.

    The president — who also was present — denied last month that his wife made the ethnic slur but conceded the first lady may have used the word “bastard.”

    The first lady brought the remark to the forefront of her U.S. Senate campaign in New York when she called a news conference on her Chappaqua, N.Y. front lawn last month and angrily and tearfully said “I wanted to unequivocally state it never happened.”

    “My policy for the last eight years has largely been just to absorb whatever insult, whatever charge, whatever accusation anybody says, and not respond because they are so outrageous and so unfair,” Hillary Clinton said. “Anyone who tries to get someone else to believe this will at least have to say, ‘Well, she says it’s not true.’ You’re darn right it’s not true. It’s absolutely false.”

    Clinton’s campaign declined to comment on the polygraph test results.”

NBC’s Andrea Mitchell admitted Monday night that Fray recounted the incident, complete with Hillary’s anti-Semitic slur, during an interview for the network’s “Dateline NBC” program in 1999. …..But NBC News editors decided to kill the report on the sensational allegation because there were “too many questions about Fray’s credibility,” Mitchell said. ….”

    CNS News 7/18/00 Paul Weyrich “……. The Senate has passed a so-called hate crimes bill which, should it become law, endangers the liberties of all who are not part of a protected class. In fact, the legislation, pushed by Senators Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts, a Democrat, and Republican Gordon Smith of Oregon, so expands the number of protected classes in this country that the only group not now covered is white males who are not handicapped. …… That’s right. Every other group, including racial minorities, the handicapped, homosexuals, and women all belong to a protected class. ………So for the first time in American history there are two classes of people before the law in the United States. Those who are of a protected class whose crimes will be regarded just as they are – and those white males, who under this theory are the oppressors, and who therefore must be guilty of hate if they commit a crime against any one of the protected class. The only way a white male can now escape being charged with committing a hate crime is to commit the crime against another white male. Then the crime will be judged solely on its merits. ……..”

    Newsmax 7/17/00 Carl Limbacher “…… In an deal that could be spell doom for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s political career, her husband’s former key advisor Dick Morris has agreed to help one-time Clinton bodyguard Larry Patterson encourage other witnesses to the first lady’s bigoted outbursts to come forward. …….. Last year Patterson told NewsMax.com exclusively that he heard both Bill and Hillary Clinton use derogatory terms for Jews such as “Jew Bastard” and “Jew Mother F – – ker” during the six and a half years he guarded them in Arkansas. ……. Over the weekend the ugly story caught fire with the mainstream press, when three former Clinton aides told reporters Mrs. Clinton called one of them a “Jew Bastard” in 1974. ……Patterson’s charges involve multiple incidents and are much more recent. ……..The first lady issued an angry and emotional denial on Sunday. But if even one more witness surfaces to corroborate Patterson’s claims, Hillary’s Senate bid could be toast in a New York minute. …….”

    The Weekly Standard 7/24/00 Roger Clegg /Glynn Custred “…….California voters outlawed discrimination in public employment, education, and contracting. At least they thought they did. On November 5, 1996, voters in California passed Proposition 209, a statewide ballot initiative that ended affirmative action preferences there. The initiative amended the state constitution to provide: “The state shall not discriminate against, or grant preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in the operation of public employment, public education, or public contracting.” ………The wording of Proposition 209 closely tracks the language of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, reaffirming the intent of that landmark federal legislation. But the grievance industry, also known as the civil rights establishment, and the academic intelligentsia fought hard against the ballot initiative. Immediately after its passage, a variety of groups challenged its constitutionality in court, arguing that it amounted to illegal discrimination for the state to ban, uh, discrimination. They lost. But for them, the battle had only begun. ……..Jesse Jackson called on California officials to “defy, challenge, resist” the law. He bused in supporters and led an anti-209 march across the Golden Gate Bridge. The vice mayor of Oakland promised to “chip away” at the law until its effectiveness was negated. Across the bay, when San Francisco mayor Willie Brown was asked on local television whether he would obey the law, he answered flatly, “No.” In fact, the city expanded its municipal contracting preferences. A Los Angeles County affirmative action officer told USA Today, “I am very defiant when it comes to something that had no business being voted on.” …….”

    New York Daily News 7/19/00 Richard Cohen “…….Is Hillary Rodham Clinton an anti-Semite? That is the gist of an accusation that dates to 1974 when, furious about her future husband’s loss in his first race for Congress, she allegedly excoriated Bill Clinton’s campaign manager, Paul Fray, calling him a “Jew bastard.” Fray is backed in his accusation by his wife, Mary Lee, and another campaign worker, Neill McDonald, who was standing outside the door and insists he heard everything. ……… As usual with a Clinton scandal, contradictions and loose ends abound. Fray, for instance, isn’t Jewish. His paternal great-grandmother was, but he himself is a Baptist. To use a Jewish slur on a Baptist is both inexplicable and a sheer waste of anti-Semitic invective………”

  87. On Sunday, the Clinton Senate campaign released copies of a handwritten letter from Fray to Hillary Clinton, dated July 1, 1997, in which he states: “I have wronged you. I ask for your forgiveness because I did say things against you, and called you names, not only to your face – but behind your back … names that are unmentionable.”

    Fray adds: “At one time in my life, I would say things without thinking, without factual foundation … I beg your forgiveness.”

  88. “Hillary Clinton who has escaped through more “gates” than a runaway pooch, needs Houdini to get her out of this one. Now, of course, as she faces ignominy over “Bastard-gate” she can quickly make us born-again believers. If I were her right now, I’d be moving my tiny legs with great haste to get to a lawyer and immediately file suit for libel. In that way, we will be convinced that Jerry Oppenheimer, Paul Fray, his wife Mary Lee Fray, former campaign worker Neil McDonald, and HarperCollins are “lying bastards.” Think of the money you would get out of this libel suit, Hillary. You would be able to underwrite Bill’s legal fees for proven lying and – as we know because we believe everything you say – Bill is the only liar in the family. The Clintonistas are making great hay out of the fact that Oppenheimer was a former National Enquirer reporter, which is supposed to a be code word for scandal-monger. It’s a case of nudge-nudge, wink-wink, the National Enquirer syndrome – “They make up stories.” As Mr. Howard Wolfson, Hillary’s attack pup, makes much of this, I give him fair and honest warning: For the past two weeks I have done a lot of research on The Enquirer, and 27 years ago, because of the particular journalism I was involved in, I had a lot of reason to know how Enquirer reporters work: (A) Then and now, their fact-checking department was the most Draconian organization since the old KGB. They would work overtime to catch out a reporter in the tiniest, most minuscule error. (B) Their modus operandi taught to them by the late Gene Pope is to always keep something up your sleeve other than your arms. Don’t believe me? Ask one-time presidential candidate Gary Hart who had the misfortune to challenge an Enquirer reporter about his wandering eye. Oh, shucks. Mr. Wolfson, if Hillary didn’t say anything to do with allegations of “Bastard-gate,” legal action is an absolute must. Of course, it is one thing not remembering where your missing legal billing files over Whitewater were for two years, it is one thing to emotionally and financially ravage Billy Ray Dale in Travelgate, but it is just something else to allegedly call someone “f- – -ing Jew bastard” when there are three impeccable witnesses. Dick Morris, a former Clinton aide, someone who was born a Jew, recalls a time when the hairs of anger stood up on the back of his neck. He was discussing with Mrs. Clinton consulting fees, fees which he’d earned working for the Clintons. “She said: ‘That’s all you people care about is money,'” Morris told Tony Snow of Fox News yesterday. Morris got more than a little drift of a perceived ethnic slur but he was gracious enough to give Hillary a “gate” to escape from. “I presume you mean, when you mention ‘you people,’ you are talking about political consultants,” Morris recounted. “Oh, yes, yes, yes,” stuttered Hillary. Of course, in fairness, she may have been talking about political consultants. Dick Morris is not necessarily convinced. Hillary could not get out of that pathetic moment when she was caught on camera embracing Suha Arafat after Yasser’s wife had accused Israelis of poisoning Arab kids. Now try to get out of this one. Wayne Barrett’s book on Rudy Giuliani revealed that he had “goodfellas” in his family tree (and so do I). Rudy should not have even batted an eyelid. If he was embarrassed, the reason escapes me. He should have said: “Hey, you never asked me. I can tell you a lot more than that.” So today, we should give Hillary a second chance. Maybe you do remember that meeting after reflection.”

  89. 80: Look, they’ve already resigned themselves to a Republican defeat in 2006 and 2008, and are already making up excuses.

  90. Wow, Pudbud, I guess there is a reason you will always be the orignal Wrong Boy. However, I sort of surprised in you. I expect total ignorance from that old queer John Craig. But I hold you to a higher standard.

    So, Wrong boy, for all the bile you posted, care to point to one point where it says that Hillary called Dick Morris a “Jew Bastard?”

    Oops, just like John Craig, you can’t, because it is not true.

    On the other hand, if you had read my post from a week ago ( http://www.horsesass.org/my-co.....ent-486253 ), you would have known what John Craig has long known:

    “There was an accusation from a former Clinton aid who was not Jewish that in 1974 Hillary said something like that, but:
    The “story,” pushed along in Mickey Kaus’s Slate column, did not withstand scrutiny. Oppenheimer was a former reporter for the National Enquirer. His source, a former Clinton campaign aide named Paul Fray, had lost his law license for taking a bribe. The story of the campaign argument had been told by Fray to many reporters over the years-with no mention of the “Jew bastard” remark. In addition, Fray had written to Mrs. Clinton in 1997, apologizing for calling her names and spreading false stories about her. Oppenheimer misstated basic facts about Mrs. Clinton’s family tree in an attempt to tar her entire family as anti-Semitic. Nor was it evident that Fray, a Baptist, was even Jewish.
    http://www.thirdworldtraveler......chine.html
    Of course, you could have also read this post from LiberalRedneck (http://www.horsesass.org/my-co.....ent-479412 ) which predated me by a week. He gets credit for calling John Craig on his slurs first:

    “Not to worry – JCH Kennedy is just recounting some old, old urban legends that go back to the “Bill Clinton Killed 30 people” days.” Mr. Redneck then goes on to talk about the supposed Fray case.

    See how important it is to develop those critical reading skills? See why you really should rely on something other than Freeper/Newsmax/Rush Limbaugh/Limbacher/Washington Times/New York Post/Far Right propaganda machine? For even your most paranoid fantasy about the main stream media, you have to admit that at least the New York Times has standards.

    And given how often you have been proven wrong because by trusting the propaganda of the right when compared to facts, why do you still insist on relying on them?

  91. JDB, Looks like Pud Kennedy kicked your ass from Hilo to Honolulu and back again!!!! Pud, Thanks! Very impressive homework! I salute you! Ready…Too!!!!!

  94. And I’m perfectly willing to criticise Democrats when it is deserved.

I missed have missed them!!! hehe, JCH]

  95. John Craig, you old queer, please read my response to the first time you posted your foolishness.

    Please point out where in anything Wrong Boy posted that it says that Dick Morris said that Hillary Clinton called him a “Jew Bastard.” Oh, that’s right, you can’t, because Wrong Boy never did.

    Boy, have you both been made to look like fools.

  96. You know, I once thought that JCH was stating a fact.

    Then I realized that he was calling someone else a cocksucker.

  97. JBD, Looks to me like PUD Kennedy took your sorry ass to the woodshed!!! And that would be DR JCH Kennedy to you!!!!!

  99. JDB: Calling anyone a Jew Bastard is BS. You seem to dwell on it. Mrs Clinton used the term. There are other recounts where Bill used the N word. It’s BS recorded in history. More BS from lefty BSers’

    Lieberman leads opponents in new poll 1 hour, 3 minutes ago

    BOSTON (Reuters) – U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman (news, bio, voting record), a three-term Democrat now running as an independent candidate, leads the man who beat him in last week’s primary vote by 12 points in a three-way race, a poll released on Thursday shows.

    The latest Quinnipiac University poll, conducted between August 10-14, shows Lieberman leads Democrat Ned Lamont, a wealthy businessman with little political experience who has played on anti-war sentiment, by 53 percent to 41 percent among likely voters in November’s election. The Republican candidate Alan Schlesinger drew 4 percent, the poll shows.

    Agreement concluded at Munich, September 29, 1938, between Germany, Great Britain, France and Italy

    GERMANY, the United Kingdom, France and Italy, taking into consideration the agreement, which has been already reached in principle for the cession to Germany of the Sudeten German territory, have agreed on the following terms and conditions governing the said cession and the measures consequent thereon, and by this agreement they each hold themselves responsible for the steps necessary to secure its fulfilment:

    (1) The evacuation will begin on 1st October.

    (2) The United Kingdom, France and Italy agree that the evacuation of the territory shall be completed by the 10th October, without any existing installations having been destroyed, and that the Czechoslovak Government will be held responsible for carrying out the evacuation without damage to the said installations.

    (3) The conditions governing the evacuation will be laid down in detail by an international commission composed of representatives of Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy and Czechoslovakia.

    (4) The occupation by stages of the predominantly German territory by German troops will begin on 1st October. The four territories marked on the attached map will be occupied by German troops in the following order:

    The territory marked No. I on the 1st and 2nd of October; the territory marked No. II on the 2nd and 3rd of October; the territory marked No. III on the 3rd, 4th and 5th of October; the territory marked No. IV on the 6th and 7th of October. The remaining territory of preponderantly German character will be ascertained by the aforesaid international commission forthwith and be occupied by German troops by the 10th of October.

    (5) The international commission referred to in paragraph 3 will determine the territories in which a plebiscite is to be held. These territories will be occupied by international bodies until the plebiscite has been completed. The same commission will fix the conditions in which the plebiscite is to be held, taking as a basis the conditions of the Saar plebiscite. The commission will also fix a date, not later than the end of November, on which the plebiscite will be held.

    (6) The final determination of the frontiers will be carried out by the international commission. The commission will also be entitled to recommend to the four Powers, Germany, the United Kingdom, France and Italy, in certain exceptional cases, minor modifications in the strictly ethnographical determination of the zones which are to be transferred without plebiscite.

    (7) There will be a right of option into and out of the transferred territories, the option to be exercised within six months from the date of this agreement. A German-Czechoslovak commission shall determine the details of the option, consider ways of facilitating the transfer of population and settle questions of principle arising out of the said transfer.

    (8) The Czechoslovak Government will within a period of four weeks from the date of this agreement release from their military and police forces any Sudeten Germans who may wish to be released, and the Czechoslovak Government will within the same period release Sudeten German prisoners who are serving terms of imprisonment for political offences.

  108. John Craig:

    Have you been scarying children at Woodland Park again? That would explain why you are so grouchy of late:

    No arrests were made that day, but on Tuesday, officers in plainclothes returned to the location in lower Woodland Park. In a sting operation involving an undercover officer, police arrested four men after each one exposed himself to the officer. One man also offered to have sex for money and was arrested for investigation of prostitution

  109. Re the “terror suspects” in England….

    “No bombs have been found. No chemicals. No equipment. No labs. No testing ground….Apparently, not one ticket had been purchased by the detainees….[And] you need something else. It’s a document called a passport. Apparently, some of the detainees don’t have them.”

    Just another bunch of idiot NON-terrorist wannabes hyped by Bush (who forced the rits to go public and make arrests befor hey wanted to) in yet another UNSUCCESSFUL attempt to raise his own and his brother GOPers’ approval ratings.

    Loser.

  110. BS:

    Agreed that calling someone a “Jew Bastard” is not a good thing to do. But there is no proof that Hillary ever said it. Even you, BS, have to admit that since only one person claims that Hillary did (and that is not Dick Morris like John Craig insist), and he didn’t say that she did until 20 years later, and he isn’t even Jewish, makes it a questionable accusation at best. It is not like she was caught on tape referring to a person at “Maccaca.”

    There are plenty of accusations that George Bush had done enough Coke to feed most of Bolivia and Columbia combined. And by much more crediable sources.

    But I’m still waiting for John Craig to give one citation to someone, other than him, saying that Dick Morris claimed that Hillary called him a “Jew Bastard.” I note that puddy for all the bile he posted was not able to do so (and in fact only repeats the discredited Fray claim over and over).

  111. But I’m still waiting for John Craig to give one citation to someone, other than him, saying that Dick Morris claimed that Hillary called him a “Jew Bastard.”

    =============

    Maybe somebody should send Dick Morris an email or a letter and ask him if Hillary ever called his that epithet. That should settle it.

  112. Libertarian:

    Dick Morris is not really that shy about speaking his mind. As Conservative First has pointed out, He has commented on the Fray situation, and he never said “Hey, she called me that too.”

  113. I thought Dick Morris worked both sides of the street – working for the Clintons in the 90’s and then seemingly speaking out against them over the past six or seven years.

  114. Morris trends Republican. He also worked for Jesse Helms, among others. If I had to guess at his personal biases, I would guess libertarian conservative.

    There was a wonderful blog on polls before the election run by a poster over at redstate, where everyone, liberal and conservative, came to the conclusion that the best money is to take the opposite of whatever Morris said. If Morris said that Bush one, Gore had, and vice versa. After all, Morris is promising us Hillary v. Condi, and I woudl say the chances of that are nearly zero right now.

  115. Who will the commie libs run in 08? “Purple Heart” Kerry? Al “SUV and Gulfstream 5″ Gore? Queen Hillary? Maxine “MoFo” Waters? Jesse “Shakedown” Jacksooooooooooon? William J. “IceBox” Jefferson, DEMOCRAT, LA, Ted “Oldsmobile” Kennedy, Al “Tawana Brawley” Sharpton? Pat “BitchSlap The Black Female Security Guard At The LAX Airport” Kennedy, Nancy “Nip/Tuck” Pelosi? Osama “Hussuan” Barrack Obama? OK, commie libs? help me here??

  117. Sacramento – California is forging ahead with the most aggressive US program to reduce global warming – a plan that pits Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger against fellow Republican George W. Bush. Both the governor and his state’s Democratic-led legislature want to make California – the world’s eighth largest economy – a model to follow with caps in greenhouse gas emissions /break/ The California Chamber of Commerce and business groups say the global warming bill is bad for the economy because it will drive up energy prices and send companies running out of state. [Atlas Shrugged]

    Yeah they’re on the brink all right. On the brink of financial disaster as every major manufacturer that can runs from the state and power production drops to an all-time low and they can no longer import the power they need just to keep the state running. California: aspiring to look like N Korea.

    California is governed by a cabal of liberal Democrat socialists, anti-american Democrat hispanics and Democrat environmental wackos….pardon the redundancy. Forty years ago California had the most advanced system of highways and freeways in the country, an education system that was the envy of the world and an industrial base of major industries…then the Democrats came.

    Don’t expect California to be anything but a second rate economy with an under-educated population, TB, polio, 30 million illegals all voting Democrat, and a socialist government that exists to support illegal aliens and the Democrat controlled state employee unions.

    A SUITCASE filled with bomb-making material has been found by police teams investigating the alleged plot to blow up aircraft over the Atlantic.
    The suitcase, containing chemicals and other equipment for a home-made bomb, was found in woods in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, close to addresses at which suspects were arrested last week.”
