Battle of Wits with the Unarmed
News, news and more news
* Is the bloom off the rose with Chalabi? They're raiding his home and offices in Iraq. They being us. Them being him. Us vs him/them now that he's one of them and not us or does he become them when we shut off the cash flow? It's so hard to keep up, ain't it? Update from yesterday: It wasn't $400K it was apparently more like $355K, but over the course of what, 14 months....that's almost $5 million.
* A shorter more concise Ann Coulter this week is: "I really really really really really really really really hate the LA Times". Here's an idea, put the LA Times in a room with the Washington Times and it'll be like combining matter and anti-matter. One big boom and then, nothing.
* When the Heritage Foundation starts criticizing the Bush administration's spending and budgets, frog rainstorms and rivers of blood could not be far behind.
* Cal Thomas charms the pants off his readers this week with the metaphor, "Gay Tsunami". By pants, of course, I mean it figuratively.....we all know Cal's quite spooked by the concept of people "doin' it". It does though give a whole new meaning to 'doing the wave'.
* Dear Mitt Romney, FACE!!!! Yours Truly, The Massachusetts Senate.
* Fritz Hollings serves up a heaping helping of love, affection and support for the DicknBush plan in Iraq. After each and every dry well type failure during Dear Leader's business career, one of his daddy's buddies bailed his ass out and still allowed him to profit. Who is going to bail him/us out of the repeated miserable failures from the last 4 years. (I'm not deluded enough to believe it can all be done in the next 4 should Kerry win)
* When you go to a wedding and the parting gift is an amputation......... are you a victim of; a.) bad planning b.) dumb luck or c.) war, in which bad things, *just happen*?
* Pringles wants to put words in your mouth. Why?
* Straight from the 'if wishes were fishes' bin, it's fantasy time. Who in the world would/could form a war crimes tribunal against the current White House administration? Not.going.to.happen.
* Roger Ebert give Fahrenheit 9-11 a thumbs up. Jury's still out on where that thumb's been. Still thinking Moore could provide a public service by releasing it without relying on the mouse.
* That liberal media, I'll tell you what. The lengths they will go to, just to get a story so they can make Dear Leader and his cronies look bad, is appalling. There should be limits to this type of free speech. (note to the sarcasm impaired, think about it)
* Wow. I have no other words for this.......'cept, someone's getting a book deal.
* The Democrats should have shown this level of passion in 2000.
Useless crap
Word of the day: Tartlette.
You're an Etch-a-Sketch!! You're the creative,
artsy type who doesn't need to actually utilize
a single muscle group in order to have fun.
Doesn't matter though, you're still cool.
What childhood toy from the 80s are you?

My you do pack a lot into on day's post. By the way, your link to the Heritage foundation's criticism of Bush is broken. Anyway, I traced you here from "Off the Kuff's" Texas Bloggers list. I added a link to you from my blog so that all two of my avid readers can find you.
Ciao
Posted by: Bubba at May 21, 2004 07:27 PMI'm not the biggest Bush fan either, but...
Comparing him to the most repressive and cruel leader on the planet who keeps a deadlock on his country from moving into the 19th century is way out of line.
We're certainly not on the same page here, but I'm looking forward to reading more of your site.
Maybe we can even get a Dallas Bloggers Happy Hour together!

Posted by: Jake at May 27, 2004 06:00 AMI would like to ask John Kerry where he, (and his friend Ted Kennedy) was when as Massachusetts senators they didn't seem to do a very good job watching the publics dollars being spent on Bostons highway project known as the "Big Dig". A San Francisco based company (Bechtel) not only designed the project, but somehow was awarded management, and most of the contracts to build it. (How did that happen Mr.Kerry?, Mr.Kennedy?) Conflict of interest?
How did an underground 2 mile stretch of highway start out as a $2.5 billion project, and end up costing tax payers $14.6 billion? And Kerry calls Bush's tax cuts irresponsible?
I'd look into how the city of Boston is managed, the possibility of corruption at the state level and the lawsuits currently pending against the contractors before accusing the Senators in Washington. 2.5B wit a 12.1B overrun? That's chump change compared to what we're giving Iraq to rebuild the infrastructure we annihilated. :)
