Food for thought-
I bet Clinton looked harder at the list of people he pardoned (knowing
he was going to get blasted) , than bush did at the people he executed.

P.S. If I had Bartcop bumper stickers made, then gave them away

Subject: heard on the street

Republicans announced today that they are changing their emblem from an elephant
to a condom because it more clearly reflects their party's political stance.

A condom stands up to inflation, halts production, discourages cooperation,
protects a bunch of pricks, and gives one a sense of security while screwing others

Bartcop,

You said, "We need a fighter in the Senate......a Democrat with balls on the Hill."

Well, I think we need the Democrat without them and she lives in NY.

It's well known that Hillary has more balls than anyone else in the Senate.

Subject: Since smirk is advocating a national test

for high school graduation I have this challenge for him. Take the test
yourself without any coaching and let's see if you would be eligible to
graduate from high school.

Of course he would cheat so we'll never know if he could have passed it,
but my bet would be NO WAY.

Subject: The Soccer Field of American Politics

Let's say that America is a soccer field. A soccer field that is tilted 30
degrees with a Poor team and a Rich team. Lets put all of the Poor team
the bottom half of the field and the Rich team at the top half. The Rich team
easily scores because it is always running downhill. The Poor team has a
terrible time. Every time they hit a ball, it came right back to them.

From the perspective of the rich team, soccer is easy. Their team scores
without much effort. On the other hand the Poor team hardly ever scores.
It is always an up hill battle.

To make matters worse for the Poor team, the Rich team has a great coach
and beautiful uniforms. The kids all sport 50 dollar soccer shoes.
The Rich team mothers look like they stepped out of Vogue Magazine.
The men drive up in SUVs with cell phones in their hands.

The Poor team wears tee shirts one of the mothers dyed. Most of the kids
can't even afford soccer shoes. The Poor coach had to work overtime, so
he didn't make it to the game. A few parents show up in beat-up old cars.
The game is over for all practical purposes early in the first half.

After a couple of games, kids start dropping out of the Poor team.
What's the point when you always loose?

A liberal shows up at the game and is upset about how unfair it was
and organizes the parents. A conservative then shows up. The conservative
tells the Poor team pray and try harder. Perhaps the conservative gives
some of the better players vouchers to play on the Rich team next year.

The following year the Poor parents help elect a liberal mayor. The
mayor then progressively raises property taxes. The mayor then buys a
bulldozer and levels the field. Next year the Poor team win its first game.

Subject: I Did Not Have Sex With That Toothpaste

An Open Letter To The American People,

As you may have heard, Rush Limbaugh, Marconi -award-winning
investigative reporter, has discovered the shocking truth that, not a
tube, but a whole box of toothpaste is missing from Air Force One.

To save the Justice Department a 40-million-dollar investigation of this
pressing matter -- in which they reveal that John Podesta in the third
grade propositioned his teacher (by asking if she would marry him) and
is clearly a sexual predator at the age of nine -- I will admit that not
only did I know about the missing toothpaste but I TOOK the toothpaste from
Air Force One and gave it to Al Gore.

I figured that Al deserved a consolation prize, you know like you get turtle wax
when you leave a game show. And Al needs strong teeth so that when he comes
back into public life people can feel his bite. Also, I thought it would be nice to
know that somebody who actually got more votes would be using the Presidential
Toothpaste. Let me point out, at the time I was President and it was my frigin'
toothpaste to give to whoever I wanted to give it to!

Yours,

William Jefferson Clinton

P.S. If you're ever in Chappequa BC come on down for some real Southern barbecue
-- I might even let you use some of that dental floss I took from the oval office.

Bartcop

Why have we not heard about Asscroft's repeated complicity to derail
monetary support and de-segregation of schools by DIVERTING FUNDS.

This is the way it worked - when a drug arrest occurred in Missouri the
local police were to inventory assets, money, etc. and, by law, the money
was to go for the benefit of schools. Instead, the police would call the State
Highway Patrol, and let them make the "official" arrest.

THEN all the money could be poured back into law enforcement coffers;
including paying for some big Holiday bashes, more GUNS, uniforms, whatever!!
Nothing like having the State AG SCREW!! the school kids by looking the other way.

RePukelans make me want to throw up!!!

Subject: Pardon Me

Listening to stroke-addled Rush go on about Clinton's pardon of Rich
(and his offhand dismissal of Chris Matthews' characterization of it as a
payback for campaign contributions in favor of Pat Caddel's outlandish
and utterly unfounded claim of outright bribe), I couldn't help but think
back to Poppy Bush's pardon of Armand Hammer back in 1989.

Those old enough to remember will note that Hammer had pleaded guilty
to making illegal contributions to Nixon's 1972 re-election campaign.

Another flagrant instance of the Republican Double Standard in action.

Subject: lack of coverage of inauguration demonstrators

dear rich people who are on tv everynight:

i find it ludicrous that your coverage of mr. bush's inauguration
failed so miserably to make mention of the 30,000 americans who chose to
display their displeasure and anger at the inauguration parade. what little
was said in your coverage was purely dismissive and condescending.

this number of people protesting the inauguration of a first term
president was unprecedented in the united states history. even richard
nixon had a first term full of mistakes, lies and viet nam to get his
protestors riled up. all mr. bush did was get elected by a margin of 5
to 4 in the supreme court.

unlike the "fringe" elements of old hippies and wto turtle huggers that you
rich people in the media made the demonstrators out to be, they were in
reality a diverse collection of americans, mainly from quote unquote "middle"
america (what the hell does that mean anyway? which rich person who is
on tv every night thought up that meaningless phrase?). people white, black,
latinos, asian, from every walk of life, every religion, all representing america,
much more than mr. bush and his co-horts ever will, and even much more
than all you rich people who are on tv every night.

you might think since i continue to call you rich people, i am concerned
with class struggle. no more than the next guy. but i am concerned
with so-called journalists whose net worth make them, consciously or not,
ignore the vast majority of middle and lower class americans, who in
theory own the very airwaves you rich people monopolize every night.
it's the peter principle, stupid. you can't possible care enough about people
poorer than yourselves to actually converse with, report on, and serve,
such constituents (how ironic that the airwaves supposedly belong to us
people! theoretically, you should be working for us! ha! ha! what a
good laugh you rich people are having right now, thinking of that paradox!)

you ignore the american majority at your peril.

it would do you well to get one of your lackeys (probably an intern
who is fresh out of college and is working for free) to start investigating
the story of the deep resentment running through america now towards
mr. bush. sooner or later one of you rich people will do a story on it,
and then, herd mentality that you have, all of you rich people on tv will
want to talk about it. why not be the first?

notice how many signatures, emails, phone calls and letters came to
the senatorial offices opposing john ashcroft? that's us. look into it.
it's a real story.

we will not go away just because rich people on tv don't want to talk about us.

sincerely,

gil christner

ps could some one please put a sock in chris matthews mouth?
