Contribute to Murtha - profit 1 Million Curp
Murtha -- they almost busted his ass in ABSCAM -- very close but the money ran out before the investigation was over. Yet -- his constituents always re-elect him -- way to go, Pennsylvania dumbasses.
---------------------------
What's a paltry one million dollars to a member of Congress?
Well, apparently not enough to know if an organization about to receive that big block of cash actually exists.
Republican Rep. Jeff Flake of Arizona, the fiscal crusader who's never met an earmark he likes, questioned Democratic Rep. Peter J. Visclosky of Indiana on the House floor Tuesday about whether the Center for Instrumented Critical Infrastructure actually exists - since, hey, it's getting like a million bucks or something.
Visclosky, who chairs the spending subcommittee responsible for the project, had to admit that, well, he didn't have a clue.
After a lengthy back-and-forth, Flake, complaining that his staff couldn't find a website for the center, asked Visclosky, "Does the center currently exist?"
"At this time, I do not know," the Indiana Democrat replied. "But if it does not exist, the monies could not go to it."
And who could possibly be the sponsor of such an earmark? Yes, you guessed it, the man Republicans love to hate, Pennsylvania Democrat John P. Murtha.
Despite the money's uncertain destination, the House rejected Flake's measure to strike the funds, 326-98. And the Visclosky bill also sailed through, 312-112.
As I said, what's one million dollars to a member of Congress?
It becomes clearer when you understand the following:
UPDATE: I failed to report last night that a certificate filed with the requested funds says the money is actually earmarked to Concurrent Technologies Corporation, a nonprofit technological consulting firm. A brief search of campaign finance records shows CTC President and CEO Daniel R. DeVos, of alternately Central City and Johnstown, Pa. has contributed $7,000 to Murtha's reelection campaign since April 2002.

HEY -- POLITICIANS -- don't worry -- 1 Million bux isn't something you should worry about. You were right to totally disregard the meaningless sum of money. FUCKING IDIOTS. ABSOLUTE FUCKING IDIOTS.

God made peeps naked - Man outlaws it

HEY -- NAKED GUY -- PUT SOME CLOTHES ON -- YOU LOOK DISGUSTING PARADING AROUND THE WAY GOD MADE YOU.
Vermont town bans public nudity after brash displays
BRATTLEBORO, Vermont (Reuters) - A Vermont town that is gaining national attention for brash displays of nudity -- from teens in the buff to naked elderly people -- awoke on Wednesday to an emergency ban on nakedness in most public places.
Officials in Brattleboro voted 3 to 2 on Tuesday night for a temporary 30-day ordinance prohibiting people from going about in the nude.
Public nudity made headlines last summer when the weather grew hot and a couple of dozen teens took to holding hula hoop contests, riding bikes and parading past stores wearing only their birthday suits. The disrobing has resumed this summer.

Shitstain smokers pay for their filthy sin
From Drudge:
It's no mathematical error: The federal government has proposed raising taxes on premium cigars, the kind Newman's family has been rolling for decades in Ybor City, by as much as 20,000 percent.
As part of an increase in tobacco taxes designed to pay for children's health insurance, the nickel-per-cigar tax that has ruled the industry could rise to as much as $10 per cigar.
"I'm not sure in the history of man, since our forefathers founded the country in 1776, that there's ever been a tax increase of 20,000 percent," said Newman, who runs the Tampa business founded by grandfather Julius Caesar Newman. "They had the Boston Tea Party for less than this."
More here:
OH shutup, shitstain smoker -- just pay for children's healthcare and shutup -- shutup, shutup, SHUTUP. How DARE you question the moral judgement of the rest of us Americans? We point -- we point at you -- we holler "SHITSTAIN."

Jackass politicians let terrorists in
From Drudge:
Yep -- what a shocker -- the geniuses in Washington decided that protecting our southern border really isn't all that important. Meanwhile, Americans have been screaming at the top of their lungs to secure the border.
Well -- here they come -- as advertised in your local Al Queda news flyer.
Did you know that congress currently has over 300 "investigations" going? Oh yes -- indeedy -- all the assholes up there trying to bring down the other party. Nevermind your border ... the only thing that matters to them is political power and getting re-elected.
The FBI is investigating an alleged human smuggling operation based in Chaparral, N.M., that agents say is bringing "Iraqis and other Middle Eastern" individuals across the Rio Grande from Mexico.
An FBI intelligence report distributed by the Washington, D.C. Joint Terrorism Task Force, obtained by the Blotter on ABCNews.com, says the illegal ring has been bringing Iraqis across the border illegally for more than a year.
The FBI report, issued last week, says the smuggling organization "used to smuggle Mexicans, but decided to smuggle Iraqi or other Middle Eastern individuals because it was more lucrative." Each individual would be charged a fee of $20,000 to $25,000, according to the report.

100 Years Ago
From Bits and Pieces:
The year is 1907. One hundred years ago. What a difference a century makes!
Here are some statistics for the Year 1907 :
The average life expectancy was 47 years.
Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub.
Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone.
There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads.
The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph.
The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower!
The average wage in 1907 was 22 cents per hour.
The average worker made between $200 and $400 per year .
A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year, a dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year.
More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME .
Ninety percent of all doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION! Instead, they attended so-called medical schools, many of which were condemned in the press AND the government as 'substandard.'
Sugar cost four cents a pound.
Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen.
Coffee was fifteen cents a pound.
Most women only washed their hair once a month, and used Borax or egg yolks for shampoo.
Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from entering into their country for any reason.

Two out of every 10 adults couldn't read or write.
Only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school.

Eighteen percent of households had at least one full-time servant or domestic help.
There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE ! U.S.A. !

Presidink Klown's press conference
On July 12th, the President held a press conference. Here are the answers Presidink Klown might have given.
--------------------
Q Mr. President, thank you, sir. Are you going to order a leaks investigation into the disclosure of the NSA surveillance program? And why did you skip the basic safeguard of asking courts for permission for these intercepts?
A - Part A - There are leaks because of Democrat spies. We know who they are. There is no need for an investigation. Even if we had them arrested, they would never be convicted ... it would be a waste of our time. Just like when the Democrats spend every hour of every day investigating something and wasting money.
Let me give you an example about my concerns about letting the enemy know what may or may not be happening. In the late 1990s, our government was following Osama bin Laden because he was using a certain type of telephone. And then the fact that we were following Osama bin Laden because he was using a certain type of telephone made it into the press as the result of a leak by a Democrat operative ... And guess what happened? Osama bin Laden changed his behavior and got away. See ... to America's enemies (leakers/democrats), nothing is more important than making me look bad ... nothing.
Part B - We didn't skip the "basic safeguard", comrade. It's legal for me to utilize this method to protect the American people. If you think it isn't, take it to the Supreme Court ... or ... you know ... misuse your position as an "objective jourrrrrrnalist" and take advantage of your little soapbox on camera here at the press conference ... and act as if you know what you're talking about ... in front of all your commie friends.
-------------------
Q Mr. President, you have hailed the Iraqi elections as a success, but some lawmakers say you are not focusing on the threat of civil war. Do you fear a civil war? And how hard will you push Iraq's competing political parties to get a government and a constitutional compromise?
A Some lawmakers? SOME LAWMAKERS? -- HA -- That's a good one. I must tell you -- if right now I were to heal the entire world of AIDS & poverty -- SOME LAWMAKERS would still be calling for my resignation. So ... to answer your question ... I say I don't care what "some lawmakers" say about me now -- or ever -- thanks for the question.
--------------------
Q What would you say is the biggest mistake you've made during your presidency, and what have you learned from it?
A My biggest mistake has been not realizing that Democrats are such power-hungry shysters. Seriously -- I didn't know how little they cared about America. I didn't realize how willing they would be to lie and cheat and steal for power. I didn't realize how willing they would be to risk all they have and all the American people have ... just in exchange for power. And if you asked this question trying to get me to say "Iraq was my biggest mistake", you better go tell Nancy Pelosi it didn't work ... OK? Comrade?
--------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. If you believe that present law needs to be faster, more agile concerning the surveillance of conversations from someone in the United States to someone outside the country, why, in the four years since 9/11, has your administration not sought to get changes in the law instead of bypassing it, as some of your critics have said?
A I said it needs to be faster and more agile ... but I never said I bypassed the law. I guess you didn't hear the answer to the question earlier so you must be hard of hearing. HERE IS THE ANSWER AGAIN --- WE AREN'T BYPASSING THE LAW -- MY "CRITICS" WILL ALWAYS SAY WE'RE DOING SOMETHING ILLEGAL -- NO MATTER WHAT -- YOU GET ME? DUMBASS? Gd you peeps in the press never fail to impress the Klown with your stupidity.
---------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. You say you have an obligation to protect us. Then why not monitor those calls between Houston and L.A.? If the threat is so great, and you use the same logic, why not monitor those calls? Americans thought they weren't being spied on in calls overseas -- why not within the country, if the threat is so great?
A I love the sarcasm in your voice when you say "if the threat is so great." You're a gd idiot. The answer is ... BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE ILLEGAL - MORON. Unlike monitoring calls that originate from foreign countries. Do you understand the difference? Anyway, it's not so much a matter of how great the threat is -- it's a matter of what's legal and what is not -- can you get that into your pea-brain? No? I didn't think so, Ivan.
-----------------------
Q Democrats have said that you have acted beyond law, and that you have even broken the law. There are some Republicans who are calling for congressional hearings and even an independent investigation. Are you willing to go before members of Congress and explain this eavesdropping program? And do you support an independent investigation?
A "Democrats have said?" -- Too funny -- who cares what "Democrats have said." I'll tell you what I say -- I say Democrats are traitors and should be hauled into court and tried for treason. Now go ask them if they would support an investigation of that -- YOU JACKASS.
------------------------
Q You talked about your decision to go to war and the bad intelligence, and you've carefully separated the intelligence from the decision, saying that it was the right decision to go to war despite the problems with the intelligence, sir. But, with respect, the intelligence helped you build public support for the war. And so I wonder if now, as you look back, if you look at that intelligence and feel that the intelligence and your use of it might bear some responsibility for the current divisions in the country over the war, and what can you do about it?
A Well -- let's see. I think I can recall some other people who, in your words, "use of the intelligence" might bear some responsibility for current divisions over the war. It's a good thing curing amnesia isn't painful -- huh comrade?
"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002 Source
"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
- President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998 Source
"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983." - Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998 Source
"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."Letter to President Clinton. - (D) Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, others, Oct. 9, 1998 Source
"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process." - Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998 Source
We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 Source
"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 Source
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." - Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002 Source
"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." - Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002 Source
Yes -- They had access to the same intelligence I had. Many had come to the same conclusions long before I took office. Be that as it may though, I'd like to thank you and all your peers in the media for ensuring the American people forget about those statements and are never reminded of this horrible, debilitating memory again ... you traitorous ASSHOLE.
---------------------
Q Mr. President. Getting back to the domestic spying issue for a moment. According to FISA's own records, it's received nearly 19,000 requests for wiretaps or search warrants since 1979, rejected just five of them. It also operates in secret, so security shouldn't be a concern, and it can be applied retroactively. Given such a powerful tool of law enforcement is at your disposal, sir, why did you see fit to sidetrack that process?
A I love how you "objective jourrrnalists" use the term "domestic spying" to describe intercepting telephone calls from suspected terrorists overseas. Too funny. Maybe next you can re-label the war in Iraq as "Arabic Genocide." You likey? -- DIPSHIT.
----------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. Following up on Wendell's question about the intelligence failures ahead of Iraq, one of the side effects appears to have been that the United States has lost some credibility with its allies when it goes to them with new intelligence. You, for example, your administration, has been sharing with some of your allies the contents of a laptop computer that was found in Iran concerning their nuclear program. Yet you are still having --
THE PRESIDENT: Is that classified? (Laughter.) (Oh yeah -- that's hysterical -- as if leaking classified information ever stopped a fucking democrat, I mean "objective jourrrrrnalist" from trying to make the president look bad) No, never mind, Sanger.
Q Yet you are still having some difficulty convincing people that Iran has a nuclear program. Can you tell us whether or not you think one of the side effects of the intelligence failure has been that it has limited your ability to deal with future threats like Iran, like North Korea, or any other future threats concerning terrorists?
A Well -- The president of Iran said they had a nuclear program. He said there was nothing anyone could do to stop them from progressing in the program. IS THAT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU? ... YOU RETARDED CRETIN? YOU SHOULD BE WEARING A FUCKING HELMET.
-----------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. I wonder if you can tell us today, sir, what, if any, limits you believe there are or should be on the powers of a President during a war, at wartime? And if the global war on terror is going to last for decades, as has been forecast, does that mean that we're going to see, therefore, a more or less permanent expansion of the unchecked power of the executive in American society?
A Are you finished making your speech, Mr Lenin? I mean ... shouldn't you be teaching in a University somewhere ... with all that brainpower you have? UNCHECKED POWER --- HA HA HA HA HA HA ... Let me tell you, if I had unchecked power, you'd have to wipe your ass with concertina wire ... oh lord (*wipes tears from eyes*) ... unchecked power ... nice one, Einstein.
-----------------------
Q Thank you, sir. Looking ahead to this time next year, what are the top three or top five -- take your pick -- accomplishments that you hope to have achieved? And in particular, what is your best-case scenario for troop levels in Iraq at this time next year?
A Thanks for the opportunity to explain my objectives. I shall start with the last part of the question first ... My best-case scenario is all our troops will be home -- except the ones we hope to leave there in permanent bases like we have in Europe, Japan, Korea, and around the world.
As for the top 5 accomplishments for next year? Well ... these aren't the TOP 5 but here are 5 that jump to mind:
1 - The Implementation of the fair tax -- making America the most competitive economy on earth. Completely lifting the tax burden from the poor and making America the most desirable country on the planet for foreign business investment. American people would see their incomes skyrocket as businesses compete for their labor.
2 - Complete tort reform. This is where, when someone is sued ... and they defend themselves from the suit ... and prove their innocence ... the people who sued them must pay their attorney fees. It's not fair that someone can sue you for any reason whatsoever and you still have to pay your own attorney ... even if you are innocent. Most large companies in America just settle lawsuits (read ... make a payoff) if it's only going to cost them a fraction of the cost of the litigation ... and this is not free. If you think it is ... you're a god damned idiot. When someone is sued for millions of dollars because a retard dumped hot coffee in their own lap, the customers pay for it in increased costs forevermore.
3 - Speed up the implementation of the death penalty. I'd sponsor legislation that gave a condemned person rights to all the appeals he wanted ... as long as they were complete within 30 days -- if he's not found innocent by then, he dies ... end of story. And I'd like to add a florish ... executions should be public ... not done behind closed doors. So, when the day comes, I'd like to see the executioners run for his cell -- grab him -- run him out to the gallows -- up the stairs -- over to the rope -- rope around the neck and BOOM -- done.
4 - Am I boring you? I would like to have convinced the American people that political correctness is only for complete morons. Profiling should be encouraged, not discouraged. The very fact I have to say this shows that the smart America I knew has been lost ... years ago. I hope to start getting her back.
5 - The resurrection of the idea of freedom. It is my contention that a man isn't free unless he is free to do as he chooses. I believe the Constitution should be amended with a clause which states that neither the federal nor any state government shall make any activity that does not violate, through force or fraud, a person’s right to life, liberty or property, a crime. (hat tip to Boortz) You know what that means? That means you can't tell me I can't buy beer on Sunday. That means you can't tell me not to hire a hooker. That means you can't tell me SHIT ... unless I am depriving someone of their life, liberty, or property. GOT ME? ASSHOLES?
I could go on and on -- but I'll stop with these 5 for now -- thanks again, for the question.
---------------------
Q One of the things we've seen this year is the reduction in your approval rating. And I know how you feel about polls, but it appears to be taking something out of your political clout, as evidenced by the Patriot Act vote. What do you attribute your lower polls to, and are you worried that independents are losing confidence in your leadership?
A My political clout? Well -- I can't run for president again so ... what do I care about my "political clout." I attribute my lower polls to the fact that the media lies and cheats and steals all day every day as it concerns the American people. The media is interested in a Democrat controlled government -- plain and simple -- and they will anything, ... ANYTHING ... including leaking classified material, to make it happen. Other things they do are:
a) rig polls and then give the results out as "news."
b) rewrite history and "report" on it as news
c) mislead the public and only give one side of a story
Again -- I could go on and on -- but that's why I have "lower poll numbers." Of course, my approval numbers are higher than congress' approval numbers ... but no need to tell the American people that -- right -- RIGHT? ... Mr. objective JACKASS.
OK -- there's your news conference -- so all you commies go pack sand up your asses -- ok?

Q Mr. President, thank you, sir. Are you going to order a leaks investigation into the disclosure of the NSA surveillance program? And why did you skip the basic safeguard of asking courts for permission for these intercepts?

I say I don't care what "some lawmakers" say about me now -- or ever -- thanks for the question.
--------------------
Q What would you say is the biggest mistake you've made during your presidency, and what have you learned from it?
A My biggest mistake has been not realizing that Democrats are such power-hungry shysters. Seriously -- I didn't know how little they cared about America. I didn't realize how willing they would be to lie and cheat and steal for power. I didn't realize how willing they would be to risk all they have and all the American people have ... just in exchange for power. And if you asked this question trying to get me to say "Iraq was my biggest mistake", you better go tell Nancy Pelosi it didn't work ... OK? Comrade?
--------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. If you believe that present law needs to be faster, more agile concerning the surveillance of conversations from someone in the United States to someone outside the country, why, in the four years since 9/11, has your administration not sought to get changes in the law instead of bypassing it, as some of your critics have said?
A I said it needs to be faster and more agile ... but I never said I bypassed the law. I guess you didn't hear the answer to the question earlier so you must be hard of hearing. HERE IS THE ANSWER AGAIN --- WE AREN'T BYPASSING THE LAW -- MY "CRITICS" WILL ALWAYS SAY WE'RE DOING SOMETHING ILLEGAL -- NO MATTER WHAT -- YOU GET ME? DUMBASS? Gd you peeps in the press never fail to impress the Klown with your stupidity.
---------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. You say you have an obligation to protect us. Then why not monitor those calls between Houston and L.A.? If the threat is so great, and you use the same logic, why not monitor those calls? Americans thought they weren't being spied on in calls overseas -- why not within the country, if the threat is so great?
A I love the sarcasm in your voice when you say "if the threat is so great." You're a gd idiot. The answer is ... BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE ILLEGAL - MORON. Unlike monitoring calls that originate from foreign countries. Do you understand the difference? Anyway, it's not so much a matter of how great the threat is -- it's a matter of what's legal and what is not -- can you get that into your pea-brain? No? I didn't think so, Ivan.
-----------------------
Q Democrats have said that you have acted beyond law, and that you have even broken the law. There are some Republicans who are calling for congressional hearings and even an independent investigation. Are you willing to go before members of Congress and explain this eavesdropping program? And do you support an independent investigation?
A "Democrats have said?" -- Too funny -- who cares what "Democrats have said." I'll tell you what I say -- I say Democrats are traitors and should be hauled into court and tried for treason. Now go ask them if they would support an investigation of that -- YOU JACKASS.
------------------------
Q You talked about your decision to go to war and the bad intelligence, and you've carefully separated the intelligence from the decision, saying that it was the right decision to go to war despite the problems with the intelligence, sir. But, with respect, the intelligence helped you build public support for the war. And so I wonder if now, as you look back, if you look at that intelligence and feel that the intelligence and your use of it might bear some responsibility for the current divisions in the country over the war, and what can you do about it?
A Well -- let's see. I think I can recall some other people who, in your words, "use of the intelligence" might bear some responsibility for current divisions over the war. It's a good thing curing amnesia isn't painful -- huh comrade?
"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002 Source
"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
- President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998 Source
"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983." - Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998 Source
"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."Letter to President Clinton. - (D) Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, others, Oct. 9, 1998 Source
"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process." - Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998 Source
We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 Source
"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 Source
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." - Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002 Source
"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." - Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002 Source
Yes -- They had access to the same intelligence I had. Many had come to the same conclusions long before I took office. Be that as it may though, I'd like to thank you and all your peers in the media for ensuring the American people forget about those statements and are never reminded of this horrible, debilitating memory again ... you traitorous ASSHOLE.
---------------------
Q Mr. President. Getting back to the domestic spying issue for a moment. According to FISA's own records, it's received nearly 19,000 requests for wiretaps or search warrants since 1979, rejected just five of them. It also operates in secret, so security shouldn't be a concern, and it can be applied retroactively. Given such a powerful tool of law enforcement is at your disposal, sir, why did you see fit to sidetrack that process?
A I love how you "objective jourrrnalists" use the term "domestic spying" to describe intercepting telephone calls from suspected terrorists overseas. Too funny. Maybe next you can re-label the war in Iraq as "Arabic Genocide." You likey? -- DIPSHIT.
----------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. Following up on Wendell's question about the intelligence failures ahead of Iraq, one of the side effects appears to have been that the United States has lost some credibility with its allies when it goes to them with new intelligence. You, for example, your administration, has been sharing with some of your allies the contents of a laptop computer that was found in Iran concerning their nuclear program. Yet you are still having --
THE PRESIDENT: Is that classified? (Laughter.) (Oh yeah -- that's hysterical -- as if leaking classified information ever stopped a fucking democrat, I mean "objective jourrrrrnalist" from trying to make the president look bad) No, never mind, Sanger.
Q Yet you are still having some difficulty convincing people that Iran has a nuclear program. Can you tell us whether or not you think one of the side effects of the intelligence failure has been that it has limited your ability to deal with future threats like Iran, like North Korea, or any other future threats concerning terrorists?
A Well -- The president of Iran said they had a nuclear program. He said there was nothing anyone could do to stop them from progressing in the program. IS THAT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU? ... YOU RETARDED CRETIN? YOU SHOULD BE WEARING A FUCKING HELMET.
-----------------------
Q Thank you, Mr. President. I wonder if you can tell us today, sir, what, if any, limits you believe there are or should be on the powers of a President during a war, at wartime? And if the global war on terror is going to last for decades, as has been forecast, does that mean that we're going to see, therefore, a more or less permanent expansion of the unchecked power of the executive in American society?
A Are you finished making your speech, Mr Lenin? I mean ... shouldn't you be teaching in a University somewhere ... with all that brainpower you have? UNCHECKED POWER --- HA HA HA HA HA HA ... Let me tell you, if I had unchecked power, you'd have to wipe your ass with concertina wire ... oh lord (*wipes tears from eyes*) ... unchecked power ... nice one, Einstein.
-----------------------
Q Thank you, sir. Looking ahead to this time next year, what are the top three or top five -- take your pick -- accomplishments that you hope to have achieved? And in particular, what is your best-case scenario for troop levels in Iraq at this time next year?
A Thanks for the opportunity to explain my objectives. I shall start with the last part of the question first ... My best-case scenario is all our troops will be home -- except the ones we hope to leave there in permanent bases like we have in Europe, Japan, Korea, and around the world.
As for the top 5 accomplishments for next year? Well ... these aren't the TOP 5 but here are 5 that jump to mind:
1 - The Implementation of the fair tax -- making America the most competitive economy on earth. Completely lifting the tax burden from the poor and making America the most desirable country on the planet for foreign business investment. American people would see their incomes skyrocket as businesses compete for their labor.
2 - Complete tort reform. This is where, when someone is sued ... and they defend themselves from the suit ... and prove their innocence ... the people who sued them must pay their attorney fees. It's not fair that someone can sue you for any reason whatsoever and you still have to pay your own attorney ... even if you are innocent. Most large companies in America just settle lawsuits (read ... make a payoff) if it's only going to cost them a fraction of the cost of the litigation ... and this is not free. If you think it is ... you're a god damned idiot. When someone is sued for millions of dollars because a retard dumped hot coffee in their own lap, the customers pay for it in increased costs forevermore.
3 - Speed up the implementation of the death penalty. I'd sponsor legislation that gave a condemned person rights to all the appeals he wanted ... as long as they were complete within 30 days -- if he's not found innocent by then, he dies ... end of story. And I'd like to add a florish ... executions should be public ... not done behind closed doors. So, when the day comes, I'd like to see the executioners run for his cell -- grab him -- run him out to the gallows -- up the stairs -- over to the rope -- rope around the neck and BOOM -- done.
4 - Am I boring you? I would like to have convinced the American people that political correctness is only for complete morons. Profiling should be encouraged, not discouraged. The very fact I have to say this shows that the smart America I knew has been lost ... years ago. I hope to start getting her back.
5 - The resurrection of the idea of freedom. It is my contention that a man isn't free unless he is free to do as he chooses. I believe the Constitution should be amended with a clause which states that neither the federal nor any state government shall make any activity that does not violate, through force or fraud, a person’s right to life, liberty or property, a crime. (hat tip to Boortz) You know what that means? That means you can't tell me I can't buy beer on Sunday. That means you can't tell me not to hire a hooker. That means you can't tell me SHIT ... unless I am depriving someone of their life, liberty, or property. GOT ME? ASSHOLES?
I could go on and on -- but I'll stop with these 5 for now -- thanks again, for the question.
---------------------
Q One of the things we've seen this year is the reduction in your approval rating. And I know how you feel about polls, but it appears to be taking something out of your political clout, as evidenced by the Patriot Act vote. What do you attribute your lower polls to, and are you worried that independents are losing confidence in your leadership?
A My political clout? Well -- I can't run for president again so ... what do I care about my "political clout." I attribute my lower polls to the fact that the media lies and cheats and steals all day every day as it concerns the American people. The media is interested in a Democrat controlled government -- plain and simple -- and they will anything, ... ANYTHING ... including leaking classified material, to make it happen. Other things they do are:
a) rig polls and then give the results out as "news."
b) rewrite history and "report" on it as news
c) mislead the public and only give one side of a story
Again -- I could go on and on -- but that's why I have "lower poll numbers." Of course, my approval numbers are higher than congress' approval numbers ... but no need to tell the American people that -- right -- RIGHT? ... Mr. objective JACKASS.
OK -- there's your news conference -- so all you commies go pack sand up your asses -- ok?
"Incident" map
This map shows "incidents" all over the world. Hold your mouse over the scrolling descriptions at the bottom and it will stop the scroll. If you click on the description it opens a new window where you can get more info ... inlcuding the newpaper/source etc. Fairly interesting ... I clicked on a couple of the descriptions and they turned out to be a day or two old ... so keep that in mind. Here's the link to the real map. Got it from my friend, The Beaner.NBC delivers crushing blow to America
Why should they pretend to be different? For 30-40 years they've been commies and the American sheeple haven't found out -- so why try to hide -- it isn't necessary.
Politics: Was what Al Gore called "the largest global entertainment event in all of human history" also the largest in-kind political contribution? And where's the Fairness Doctrine when you need it?
Considering that here in the U.S. the Peacock Network's three-hour Gore infomercial on global warming lost out in the ratings to "Cops" and "America's Funniest Home Videos," Gore's claim may be open to question. Live Earth, in fact, may have been America's funniest home video. Ever.
But thanks in large part to the 75 hours of free airtime that NBC gave Gore on its various stations, starting with NBC and including CNBC, Bravo, the Sundance channel, Universal HD and Telemundo, Gore may now be the 800-pound gorilla this political season.
Interviewing Gore from the site of the concert in New Jersey, Curry gushed:
"A lot of people want me to ask you tonight if you're running for president. And I know what you're answer is gonna be, believe me. I gotta ask you though. After fueling this grass-roots movement, if you become convinced that without you there will not be the political will in the White House to fight global warming to the level that is required, because the clock is ticking, would you answer the call? Would you answer the call, yes or no?"
Shut up Ann Curry, you braying sycophantic jackass.
Where are the libs crying for "fairness" now?
When a conservative appears on talk radio, liberals cry for the Fairness Doctrine. Seventy-five free hours for Archbishop Gore's Church of Climate Change? Not a peep.

Political correctness to start with the killing
From Hot Air:
Undercover agents trick NRC, get license to buy radiological material
WASHINGTON - Undercover federal agents were easily able to fool the Nuclear Regulatory Commission into providing them with a license to obtain radiological material that could be used to make a dirty bomb, NBC News has learned.
The undercover agents, who work for the Government Accountability Office, filled out forms online and were able to obtain an NRC license to buy several radiological "sources," according to several sources familiar with the GAO report. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case publicly.
Within four weeks, the NRC mailed a license to the undercover GAO officials, who had posed as a construction company based in West Virginia and never needed to leave their offices to get the license. The NRC only called the phony company once, and never conducted a site visit, the GAO report says. The license would have allowed the GAO undercover team to buy moisture-density gauges, which are used in the construction field and contain sealed radioactive material.
More here:
Hmmmm -- The Klown wonders thinks political correctness is behind this somehow. The Klown KNOWS there is political correctness behind "profiling" -- so officers of the law are handicapped in their ability to nab terrorists.
The Klown makes a prediction ... political correctness will kill you, or someone you know very soon.
The Klown makes another prediction -- you'll sit there -- chewing your cud when it happens -- you'll do nothing about it. Baaaaaaa.

"Showing him in a dress was dispicable crime"
From Hot Air:
In the name of Allah, and all praise is due to Allah, and may peace and prayers be on the Messenger of Allah and on his family, companions and allies. Muslim brothers everywhere: peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
(Yes -- peace be upon the Klown too -- right -- Mohammed?)
I talk to you today on the occasion of the criminal aggression carried out by Musharraf, his army and his security organs - the Crusaders' hunting dogs - against Lal Masjid in Islamabad, and on the occasion of the dirty, despicable crime committed by Pakistani military intelligence - at the orders of Musharraf - against Maulana Abdul Aziz Ghazi when it showed him on television in women's dress.
Hey -- JACKASS MUSLIM -- I guess his donning a dress in order to escape punishment was perfectly OK though -- RIGHT -- JACKASS? Loosen your fucking turban, Mohammed. The Klown thinks your blood ain't a-circulatin' through your melon just right. Sheesh -- if you ask me, you ALL look like you're wearing dresses all the time anyway -- some have veils -- some don't.

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
A day after a group of mainstream Muslim leaders pledged loyalty to Australia and her Queen at a special meeting with Prime Minister John Howard, he and his Ministers made it clear that extremists would face a crackdown. Treasurer Peter Costello, seen as heir apparent to Howard, hinted that some radical clerics could be asked to leave the country if they did not accept that Australia was a secular state, and its laws were made by parliament. "If those are not your values, if you want a country which has Sharia law or a theocratic state, then Australia is not for you", he said on National Television.
"I'd be saying to clerics who are teaching that there are two laws governing people in Australia : one the Australian law and another Islamic law, that is false. If you can't agree with parliamentary law, independent courts, democracy, and would prefer Sharia law and have the opportunity to go to another country, which practices it, perhaps, then, that's a better option", Costello said.

Remember this weird-ass case?
Pizza delivery man Brian Wells just before his explosive collar blew up and killed him. Wells was allegedly locked into a bombing device by a stranger and ordered to rob a bank branch outside Erie, Pa., Aug. 28, 2003. When he was detained by state police following the robbery, the bomb exploded, killing him instantly.Nearly four years after one of the strangest murder cases in federal law enforcement history, authorities appear poised to announce indictments in the case of the pizza bomber as early as Wednesday, sources tell ABC News.
Sources say the indictments will center on a former high school valedictorian with bipolar disorder who is believed to be the ringleader of a bizarre Pennsylvania bank robbery gone bad. What remains vexingly unclear is whether pizza-delivery man Brian Wells was involved in the plot in any way.

Why can't America be as efficient
From Drudge:
This jackass was a high government official. He cheated the people in his country -- he took bribes in exchange for his official approval. He was caught. He had a trial in May. He was executed in the first part of July.
The Klown loves it -- the dirty rat-bastard got just what he deserved. I wonder what they would have done if they caught Sandy Berger destroying classified documents in their national archives? Or if they caught William Jefferson with $90,000 wrapped in tin foil in his freezer? Meanwhile, in America, they roam free. This country is so broken.
-----------------------
China on Tuesday executed its former chief food and drug regulator for taking bribes to approve medicines, in an apparently draconian warning to other officials after a series of scandals about the quality of Chinese products.
The execution of Zheng Xiaoyu, 62, was confirmed by state media after the Supreme People’s Court approved the death sentence on charges that he took Rmb6.5m ($855,094) in bribes from eight pharmaceuticals companies. Mr Zheng is the most senior central government official to be executed since 2000 and the harsh penalty and swift enforcement, after an initial trial in May, underlines mounting government concern about the scandals that have damaged the reputation of Chinese products.
Mr Zheng was accused of approving the sale of six medicines that turned out to be fakes during his seven-year tenure as head of the State Food and Drugs Administration. In one case, a gallbladder medicine containing the wrong ingredients is believed to have led to the deaths of at least five people.
