Paul Begala Shoots the Bull
In his eighth year in office, President Eisenhower played golf.
President Reagan chopped brush out at his ranch, and made plans
to
move into the Bel Air mansion a bunch of fat cats bought for
him.
(By the way, where were the right-wingers who squawk about Clinton's
ethics
when Reagan was accepting a free mansion from powerful money
men?)
But President Clinton continues to dominate the political scene,
as focused and as forceful as a first-year president.
Look at the record:
He promised to revive the economy -- and he has delivered the
longest
economic expansion in history, the strongest economy in the history
of capitalism.
He promised to create eight million new jobs -- and he's created more than 23 million.
He promised to cut the deficit in half -- and he has done more
than twice what
he promised; eliminating the deficit altogether, balancing the
budget, turning
a surplus, and paying down the national debt.
He promised to cut crime by putting 100,000 police officers on
the street
-- and now crime is at its lowest level in 30 years.
He promised to reduce the size of the federal bureaucracy by 100,000
positions -- and he has cut the bureaucracy by 270,000 positions
-- the smallest federal workforce since JFK.
He promised to "end welfare as we know it" -- mission accomplished.
He promised to expand support for public education, create new
scholarships
and tax credits to encourage college education, and start a domestic
version
of the Peace Corps to encourage young people to serve their country
-- done, done and done.

Great, Great Liberal Quotes
From: jsw1@hotmail.com
Thanks to the Pigboy for playing snipets of a Robin Williams tribute
to Bill
Clinton. If it wasn't for Rush, I would never have heard this
line:
"Newt Gingrich is getting married.
If anybody is interested, he's registered at Krispy Kreme.
I sent him some Viagra for the honeymoon,
but it just made him taller."
The joke went right over the huge head of Rush, who complained
about liberals making fun of people's physical characteristics
and the
vertically-challenged. Don't let anybody ever claim that conservatives
have a sense of humor if they can't get the Newt-Viagra joke.

Concealed Weapons
In 1995, Gov. Smirk signed legislation to allow concealed
handguns
in churches, stadiums, Luby's cafeterias and so on.
Since we've had another shooting, I'd like to propose a scenario.
Let's say there are 160 people in a Wal-Mart Super-Center in Dallas.
Out of the 160, let's say half are carrying a concealed gun.
All of a sudden, Adam, in aisle 2, thinks he's heard a gunshot
inside the store.
He draws his weapon, certain that he's going to stop a crime
in progress.
Bill, in aisle 4, heard the same sound, so he draws his
weapon.
Charlie and David, in aisle 7, heard the sound, and draw their
guns.
Adam looks around the corner of the aisle and sees Charlie and
David
with their guns out. Adam figures Charlie and David are working
together
to either rob the Wal-Mart or just shoot the place up. With all
the best
intentions a ditto-monkey can muster, trying to fulfill the mandate
put upon
him by the governor of Texas, trying to help, Adam fires on Charlie
and David.
Meanwhile, Bill sees Adam fire at Charlie and David, and assumes
he's
the
nut.
With all the best intentions, Bill fires at Adam.
Meanwhile, Charlie and David are innocent, law-abiding citizens
being shot at
inside a Wal-Mart and, since they're armed, they return fire.
Ed is in aisle 10, with his buddy Frank, and both are carrying.
Ed and Frank see Charlie and David shooting, but they don't see
Adam,
so they figure Charlie and David are the culprits, so they open
fire.
All this time, Greg and Henry, two Wal-Mart employees, see a gunfight
in their store, so they grab rifles off the wall and return fire.
There are six untrained scared ditto-monkeys shooting anything
that moves
and there's 154 people in the store running and screaming in
a panic.
Thirty minutes later, there are 16 dead and 35 wounded.
...and the funny part?
Sherry was making balloon animals in the children's shoe department.
One of the balloons popped.
That's how this whole bloody mess got started.
A really, really stupid idea combined with Smirk's signature means
a popped balloon translates into 16 dead and 35 wounded.
Isn't is odd that an organization with less than 4,000,000 members
can force their firearms policy on the other 276,00,000 Americans?
Thanks, Smirk.
Thanks for being an NRA puppet.

Subject: Hello from Finland
Hello,
I read your webzine in Finland and always
get a chuckle. Recently, a
thought came to my mind about the conservatives
complaining how the
academia is controlled by liberals:
If the situation was reversed and most pointy-head
professors and other
scientists were actually conservatives,
would the conservatives claim that
this proves the inherent intellectual superiority
of the conservative worldview?
Ilkka, that's
an excellent question.
I'm happy and proud that the intelligent
people agree with me.
I think it's obvious that education makes
people turn liberal.
Just yesterday, that horrid Laura the
Unloved woman was screaming at
Clinton because he'd assembled a team of
experts, men and women with
doctorate degrees in education and child
psycology etc., to advise him on
education reform and children's issues.
Laura and the Republicans see education as a threat.
If someone gets good grades in high school,
then goes on to earn good
grades in college, then stays in school
to earn a Master's degree or a
Doctorate in some field, you can bet Rush
and the Republicans will label
them "self-appointed know-it-alls" and
ridicule any ideas they have.
Republicans always see education as a threat.
It's hard for me to believe, and I live
here.
How confusing this must look to you and
the rest of the world.
America - the highest prison population
in the world.
America - the only civilized country with
the death penalty.
America - where cowboys still rule the
day.
America - where everyone can have as many
guns as they want.
America - where nudity is considered a
crime.
America - where a majority believe on invisible
ghosts.
America - where racist hatred is everywhere,
everyday.
America - the world's only super-power.
How scary we must look to people in other countries.
I don't know if you've ever noticed, but
in America, the Democrats
usually win the votes in the intelligent,
coastal states like New York and
California, and the Republicans win the
votes in the undeveloped farm states
with all the guns like Carolina, Texas,
Massabama, Georgia and Idaho.
Your question seems so logical, you'd think
everyone would agree.
But America's founding fathers allowed
for the stupid people to have the
same right to vote as the Democrats - amazing,
isn't it?
Also, is it possible to be a conservative
politician, columnist or ideologue in
America and at the same time say out loud
that creationism is a piece of crock?
Ilkka Kokkarinen
Tampere, Finland
No.
All conservatives believe in the invisible
ghosts.
No amount of science or logic will persuade
them.
It's the foundation on which they build
everything!
I don't want to brag, because I'm not very
smart myself,
but I discovered the invisible ghosts were
not real as a very small child.
I was schooled by Catholics, the craziest
of the bunch.
But even at the age of 7 or 8, I was asking
questions they couldn't answer.
They told me my questions would be explained
to me by God, after I was dead.
Isn't that the stupidest thing you've ever
heard in your life?
In backwards America, if a candidate says
they don't believe in invisible ghosts
they cannot win an election. If you say
you don't believe in the invisible ghosts,
your Republican opponent will claim it's
proof you have no morals.
The majority of America voters will agree
with that, so even the agnostic
Democrats have to claim they believe in
the ghosts to have a chance.
America likes to think we're so far ahead
of the other countries, but we're
really just a bunch of ignorant children
who refuse to accept science and logic.
I'm telling you the truth.
Most Americans really, truly believe in that which is impossible.
They are scared.
They don't think they can live without the help of the invisible
ghosts.
They think the invisible ghosts send them messages.
They think the dead are watching them, that the dead are talking
to them.
Some of us are trying to change America.
Some of us are trying to move this country closer to science
and logic,
but I don't think we will get there for another hundred years.
America is so backward, the voters are considering reversing the
progress
Clinton and the Democrats have made, so we can go back to the
past.
I, and others, will attempt to prevent that.
Thank you for writing.

Sipowicz cry over his sick kid?
First, he loses his son.
Then he loses his partner.
Then he loses his wife.
Now his kid has some blood disease.
Hey, Andy, have a drink!
Things got so bad, Andy went into the hospital chapel,
looked up and said, "Hey, you prick!" talking to God.
He even said it twice.
It seemed so fake to me, like Bochco just wanted to push the envelope.
Then his dead son showed up to give him some grief.
Then, the "big, big" showdown with Jill's dead husband was so boring,
they had to show it in slow-motion because it only lasted 10 seconds.
At the big, big climax, they pushed both men into a van and arrested

That was the big climax we've been waiting for all year?
Andy and Danny had some twilight zone conversation about the best place

Pigboy's Imaginary Debates

Subject: Great website!!
My favorite thing about Rush Limbaugh (Pigboy)
is when he has a
"debate" with someone who's not there.
When he really gets on a

illogical points and then yell the
person's name as though he was addressing
them personally,
"What do you think about THAT, so and so!!!"
I worry about his sanity.
He has convinced himself that he is an
insightful, intelligent, funny commentator.
My other favorite thing is when he brings
up a point and then changes his
voice and asks a question as though he
were another person (he did that today
when he compared registering guns to registering
speech...yeah great analogy
el rushbo you f'ing idiot) and then answers
himself in his own reasoned and
calm voice.
CS
CS,
Funny, Rush is on a delay here in K-Drag.
He was beating himself up in that debate when I read your letter.
He really has no concept of sanity or reality at all.
He just explained that if we register guns, we need to register
speech, too.
"How?" he asked himself incredulously?
"The lieberals will figure out a way - they looooooove to destroy
freedom."
...and then the idiot sheep across America say, "Rush is right AGAIN!"
He's such a cowardly bastard, just like that skirt at rushonline.com
He's so afraid to let anyone else speak because they'd win.
First, he gives his distorted, whore-view, then he explains what
Clinton's
motives really are, and then he yells, "How dare
you, Mr President!"
when Clinton never said anything like what Rush claimed.
The funny thing is, Rush wins those "debates" with himself 60% of the time.

Ground Zero for Impeachable Offenses
US-Iran: 20 years of secrets
Consortiumnews.com
May 2000 | In August, President Clinton sent a secret letter
to Iranian President Mohammed Khatemi, seeking Iran's help
in solving a fatal bomb attack against a U.S. military
compound in Saudi Arabia in 1996.
If Iran cooperated, Clinton held out hope of better relations
between
Washington and Teheran, two capitals at odds for two decades, since
Iranian radicals seized the U.S. embassy in 1979 and held 52
Americans hostage for 444 days. [Wash Post Sept. 29, 1999]
Yet, while Clinton asks Iran about the 1996 bombing, he
reportedly resisted earlier Iranian proffers of evidence about
Republican complicity in prolonging the kidnapping of the
52
American hostages in 1980, as part of a scheme to ensure
Ronald Reagan's election.
On at least two occasions after Clinton's victory in 1992,
Iranian emissaries told Clinton insiders that Iran was willing
to
turn over evidence about secret Republican contacts with
Islamic radicals close to the late Ayatollah Ruhollah
Khomeini, according to sources involved in those overtures.
But on both occasions -- once as early as the Clinton
transition period in late 1992 and again in 1994 -- Clinton
spurned the offers, the sources said. He apparently feared
the
contacts could open him to charges of playing politics.
(Ediotr's Note: this is incorrect. Clinton, and now Gore,
have this information at their fingertips in case they ever
need it.)

of that legal foundation that's hunting Clinton's cock.
As they went to a break, they played the video of Clinton answering
the big, big question that brought up the perjury charge.
It went like this:
Assbite: Did you ever have sexual relations with Monica?
Voice off-camera: Objection! What's the definition of sexual relations?
Judge: Let's use Definition Number One, as written in the Arkansas law books..
Clinton: No, I did not. I did
not have sexual relations with her.
I did not have an affair with her.
So, I have a question or six:
1. If a man picks up a hooker at his hotel in Dallas, and pays
her
fifty dollars for oral sex, did he have "an affair" with her?
2. If you kiss Connie from Accounting at the company Christmas
Party,
did you have "an affair" with her?
3. Can a man have "an affair" with a Playboy magazine?
4. Can Slappy the Wonder Judge have "an affair" with a hampster?
5. Can Rush have "an affair" with his Oreck 8-pound vacuum cleaner?
6. If Bob Barr licks whipped cream off a fat woman's breasts,
on camera,
can it be said he had "an affair" with her?
7. If John Kasich attends a bachellorette party, and caresses
the male stripper's butt,
did John Kasich have "an affair" with the stripper?
8. The guy in question one: The next time he's in Dallas,
if he sees the
same hooker and does the same thing, is he now having "an affair"
with her because it's the second time?
9. Can Tom Delay have "an affair" with a vacuum hose from a Ford F-150 pickup?
Those are tough questions.
Now - turn the situtation around.
A. Did Smirk have an affair with the young, exotic dancer with
the pink panties?
Tha answer is clearly yes.

B. Was Newt having "an affair" with Callista Bisek?

C. Did Henry Hyde have "an affair" with this woman?

D. Did Dan Burton have "an affair" with the woman who had his bastard
son?
The answer is clearly yes.
E. Did Mary Bono have "an affair" with the Diamond Rio dude?
Of course she did, right in front of Sonny's kids!
It looks like the evidence helps Clinton and hurts the scumbags
who voted
to remove him from office because he defeated them at the polls.
Having an affair involves sexual intercourse, according to the law.
Clinton, always the paradigm of self-restraint, didn't have
intercourse.
Ipso facto,
Clinton is innocent and the GOP scumbags are lying.

The truth is there has been a right-wing attempt to discredit,
demonize and
destroy the Clinton Presidency almost from Day One. Seven years
ago,
House Republican leader Dick Armey said on the House floor that
Bill Clinton wasn't his President. Right-wingers were trying
to impeach him
long before the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
President Clinton has a higher measure of approval than
Reagan
at this stage. He is the dominant political figure of our time,
and the most successful President since FDR.
No wonder the right wing is out to destroy him.

BartCop for the Prosecution
From: Withheld
Dear BartCop,
I'm writing to you about Tripp.
The Maryland State Prosecutor (1-800-695-4058)
sez the tape is the key:
The one they have isn't the original -
that one the OIC has, and they're not
about to let Maryland have it. Tripp's
lawyers are trying to say that since
that's not the original tape, it can't
be proven that this is an authentic repro
of a phone conversation, as opposed to
a cut-and-paste a la Rush or Bossie.
Thing is, I've HEARD spliced tapes (such
as the ones Bossie did for
Gennifer Flowers and Dan Burton), and it's
OBVIOUS that they're spliced.
You can hear clicks and dropouts all over
the things, and to a trained
acoustician (or anyone with ears), the
difference between a cut-and-paste
and a seamless copy is obvious.
I'll bet you could talk to the Maryland
boys and help them out. If the tape
doesn't have clicks, drop-outs, or odd
changes of voice tonality (as if
several words from several different sentences
were jammed together
to create a sentence), among other things
(many of which can be detected
by good recording engineers, with either
equipment or ears: they know the
telltale signs of a spliced recording),
and the voices can be shown to be
Tripp's and Lewinsky's (and voice-pattern
technology makes this a cinch:
voices are as individual as fingerprints),
then they still have a case,
and Tripp is sunk. !
Call the Maryland people ASAP if you think
you can help out in this regard.
They welcome suggestions, because they
want to keep the case alive.
Again, their # is 1-800-695-4058.
I called, and offered them a suggestion.
Remember recently I put Smirk/Baba Wawa Eargasms on the page?
When you have the audio from a conversation on your hard drive,
you can see how the words and sentences begin and end.
That's how I knew there was a splice between Baba's question
and Smirk's pitiful answer.
By the way, I meant to mention this at the time.
I think Pickles Smirk is very sweet.
She seems to be everything Smirk isn't.
She just married the biggest idiot in the world.
Baba asked them both a hypothetical about their daughters.
They both answered, simutaneously that they didn't DO hypotheticals,
but then the idiot Smirk says, "But I'll answer this one," and
then did.
Then that disgusting whore Baba looked at Pickles and said,
"I got an answer," gloating over her that Baba had managed to
outwit her idiot husband.
Poor Pickles, I felt sorry for her, and that doesn't happen often.
She blushed and got all embarrassed and said, "Yes, you did,"
all the while wishing she'd married that other guy who died in
the Jeep.
I don't mind if Baba wants to humiliate Smirk.
He's in politics.
Like Hyman Roth said, "This..... is the business we've chosen."
But poor Pickles didn't sign up to be humiliated by her husband's
shit-for-brains or her host's lack of decent manners.
Baba, you're such a whore.
And Pickles, I'm sorry you had to put up with both of them.
You can't do much to make your husband smarter,
but you can pick and choose your interviews better now.
Sorry - got off track...
Anyway, I told the Maryland prosecutors that if they knew anyone
with a CD writer, check with them about the voice-recognition
thing.
When they put the conversation on the monitor, they can compare
it
and check for gaps and splices and do lots of things with it.
The prosecutor was a nice man and thanked me for the tip.

Rush has been brutal today.
Not that's he's been cutting, or insightful, or even mean.
He's just been repeating the same things,
over and over and over and over and over and over and over.
I can put up with anything the Pigboy dishes out,
except the constant repeating of the same things,
over and over and over and over and over and over and over.
Whoa!
A new sentence!
The vulgar Pigboy just said something about Bill Clinton having
raised a BILLION dollars since he's been in office, which sounds
like another big-ass Pigboy lie if you do the math.
Pigboy says Clinton is hosting a Bar-B-Q dinner/fundraiser.
I'd like to see Clinton host Bar-B-Q for the Republicans.
And he could do the cooking himself.
And on his Bar-B-Q apron he could have a message that
looks almost exactly like "Kiss the Cook," but not exactly.
I wish I'd seen Horrendo Revolver last night.
I have a quarter-ton on mail about that show.
I even got celebrity mail from Gonzo Dave!
Klayman and Fishboy were both on and, apparently,
got their ass handed to them by Horrendo.
This is Horrendo's fault that I didn't see it.
There's no way to tell who's going to be on these shows.
You got Horrendo, Chris the Catholic, The O'Reiily Whore,
Cannity and Holmes, Paula Von Zahn, besides the more mainstream
Larry King and Nightline and Dateline, 20/20 etc etc etc.
How in the Hell is somebody supposed to keep up?
I hate to give them credit, but at least the Fox Whores repeat
their lies over and over and over, even on weekends.
If Horrendo and Equal Time and Chris the Screamer wanted a
bigger audience, why don't they repeat three hours later like
the others?
If they repeated, I could check my e-mail around 10 CST and catch
whatever happened that was good, but nooooooooooooooo.

The Fuct Duck
There could be trouble here...
On one side of the street, a large group
is chanting
anti-Castro and anti-Reno slogans
...while on the other side,
a group is repeating pro-Castro and pro-Clinton
propaganda...
No, wait...
That's just the press.
I don't know how this unfunny duck stays in business.
It must be the same reason Rush, Laura the Unloved, Fox News
and the others stay in business - the sheep enjoy being
lied to.
The Fuct Duck says the majority is anti-Reno concerning Elian.
The Fuct Duck says a smaller minority is pro-Clinton on Elian.
But every Pigboy-approved pollster says the MAJORITY
backs Clinton and Reno on the Elian affair.
So, why do the ditto-spanks enjoy being lied to?
We know the GOP has always been anti-education,
but what's the point of paying someone to lie to them?
NRA Goons
From: bmw55@swbell.net
Dude, I'm getting worried about the NRA.
They're a growing political force -- I
mean HUGE!
Wolf Blitzer (what a stupid name) says the
NRA is expecting to hit
four million members by November.
Four million gun-happy rednecks,
plus four million conservative Christians
from the Christian Coalition
equals 8 million right-wing yahoos definitely
voting Bush!
We have got to do something --fast!
Dylan
Dylan, two things:
Did you see Dennis Miller last last Friday?
He pointed out that with almost 4,000,000 members, the NRA
is out-numbered by normal Americans by about 70-to-1.
Second thing: Did you see that asshole/idiot showboat Charlton
Heston
at the Carolina (Where else would they hold it?) meeting
where he held
a Revolutionary War musket over his head and climbed up on his
dramatic high horse and said, "Over my cold, dead body, Mr Clinton."
What an asshole.
Nobody in America wants to outlaw Revolutionary War muskets.
If Moses wasn't such a big goddamn liar, he would've held up
a Mac 10 machine gun for a CORRECT symbol of what Clinton
and all sane Americans want outlawed.
That's their problem - if they tell the truth, nobody will
back them.
But they use scare tactics>
The evil black man Willie Horton is going to carry off your kids,
so you'd better hurry to the gunstore and get a weapons that
can fire 600 rounds per minute, then send the NRA a check.
You know what Charlton Heston is?
The story I'm hearing from Arkansas is...
They passed a resolutuion that anyone who knew Clinton or was
appointed by him didn't get to vote, which left all the Clinton-hating
Republicans at the controls to try to humiliate him.
Like the thousand attempts before this, it won't work.
I wish it was closer to election time when they brought this up...
Letterman was a riot last night.
He, too, thinks Hillary has won this race.
He made fun of the Lazio Prick over and over.
Matter of fact, he was on the GOP all night.
Maybe he's tired of Clinton jokes, who knows.
He said he's recently taken up golf at a very exclusive
Country Club.
Paul asked him what the name of the Country Club was
and Dave said, "Crooked Bush Country Club."
Dave said the NRA opened a restaurant in Times Square.
(True)
He said the name of it was "Planet Homicide!"
(Not True)
ha ha
Then he went back to Lazio saying,
"One week you're running a pizza parlor in Queens,
the next week you're running against Hillary for the Senate!"
Victimology
From: lillyn1@worldnet.att.net
Yo there Bartcop.
So in listening to our little friend today
he was ranting about this culture of
'victimology' this and that. seems I recall
many years ago when his t.v. show was
canceled he was blaming the t.v. stations
for refusing to place his show in a more
convenient time slot. He was stuck in the
12:30 a.m. time slot so basically it
wasn't his fault the show didn't get ratings.
It was the 'liberal mainstream media'
that wouldn't give him the right time slot.
One more; our little friend was wailing
along today about Bobby Bowden and
others who are the best at what they do
and everyone should fall to their
knees in praise. he doesn't seem to include
the President in his analysis
of the best at what they do praise. it
is rare that you find a head coach
who has consistently out coached his opponent
for 7 1/2 going on 8th year
straight. where have you seen a coach who's
offense as well as defense
always wins. no matter what scheme the
opposition seems to try, it is
always neutralized by the President. i've
never seen an opposing team score
and find out that they actually lost points.
Lillyn
Lillyn, right on both counts.
When Pigboy's TV show got cancelled, I tried to explain to him
that under
the Free Market System, shows that suck donkey get thrown
off the air.
If his show had been good, they would have found room for it
in Prime Time.
As far as "the best you can be," you're right again.
We've never had a president this good before.
Rush said yesterday that when you make it really big,
there's all kinds
of hateful, jealous poeple trying to tear you down, which reminded
me
how many millions Pigboy has made screaming unfounded accusations
at the man who saved the American economy from Reaganism.

Subject: QUIT DRINKING?
Is this some kind of sick joke? Have
you actually given up the Quest
for the Holy Grail (containing the perfect
tequila of course!)?
Even though I have never been drunk in my
life and have never sampled
even the lowliest tequila, I had grown
somewhat enchanted by your long
diatribes regarding your personal "nectar
of the gods."
Hell, I didn't even know there was more
than one kind of tequila until I
started hanging out at bartcop.com
to get my daily dose of truth about
America's "truth detector." The only
thing I knew about tequila was that
after watching Poltergeist 2 where that
little worm at the bottom of
Craig T. Nelson's bottle turned into a
monster after he swallowed the
damn thing down was that I never wanted
to drink anything that had
a dead worm in it. Why the hell do
they do that anyway?
Do worms keep moths away or what?
Dave from
Sacramento
Dave,
I have not abandoned the "quest."
Well, actually the "quest" had ended with Chinaco
Ajeno.
Truth is, I had been drinking too much for too long.
The last year, with that ADM money, I was spending about $400
a month on the finest agave, and I just thought I'd give it a
rest
and see what the dry side was like.
Not to upset anyone who's had a problem with this, but I always
thought it sounded so hysterical to say, "My doctor says if I
ever
have one more drop of alcohol, it will KILL ME."
For years I wondered what it would be like to quit.
I once had a doctor tell me when I quit, I was going to get the
shakes
or the DT's or whatever they call them. That's a little scary,
but the
scarier part was - what if I needed help stopping?
They say, but I can't confirm, that when you join AA, you have
to
stand up and pledge your total acceptance to Christ the Savior,
and
Koresh knows those words weren't going to come flying
out of my mouth.
Not that I have anything against those who believe, I just didn't
want to lie.
So I was curious about what would happen when I quit and it looks
like
I got lucky because nothing happened besides a little insomnia.
I always knew I'd quit someday, but I also knew when I did
quit,
that it would have to be on my own terms. It wouldn't be because
of
a DWI or some bottle fight in a bar or anything like that.
However...
Cleaning up has it's dangers, too.
Look what happened to Jerry Garcia.
Look what happened to Sam Kinison.
Look what happened to Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney and Aerosmith.
Maybe you think that Armageddon song rocks, but I knew Aerosmith
back when they partied hard and that was rock n roll.
On top of everything else, since I quit, I'm on a bad-luck streak.
-Remember my legal problems from the last Las Vegas trip?
They have resurfaced after I won a decision months ago.
-The lightning that took out my hard drive also killed my mother
board.
I'm looking at $2500 just to handle those two problems.
-I backed Mrs. BartCop's touring sedan into a metal gate.
-I've got some goddamn raccoon fights going on in the BartCop
attic.
-A big tree fell out back, and that cost $750 to have removed.
-I've gone from three stalkers to five, (and no, I don't mean
YOU!)
-My Aurora turned into a Ford Escort, or some damn thing
If this keeps up, I may have to go back to drinking real hard.
When I was slamming back 500cc's of expensive giggle juice,
I never had these kinds of problems, but doesn't it figure?
Now that I'm cleaner than a Safeway chicken,
there's a black cloud following me.
Funny, I wasn't even going to mention this, but someone wrote
and asked if I'd quit drinking, so I thought that made it interesting.
Now I have to guard against people saying,
"You were funnier on the tequila."
I'm sure I'll drink again, maybe soon. For last Saturday's
Preakness,
I had two glasses of Montelle's Strawberry Fruit table wine,
and liked it, but that wasn't drinking, not really.
Actually, I'm looking forward to my next agave party.
I can't see giving up that fantastic taste as long as I live.
Matter of fact, I'll probably get me a bottle of the good stuff
this weekend,
for Memorial Day, but I feel like I'll never drink the way I
did.
Prairie Grove Shooting
From: John_L._Payton@UP.COM
To: rcasey@pgtc.net
Subject: Decisions
Police officers often face the most difficult decision that anyone
could ever
have to make: whether or not to shoot. The decision must be made
instantly,
but if the officer is lucky then he has a lifetime in which to
wonder whether
it was the right one.
I live only one state away, but heard nothing about Sgt. Lovett's
decision
until I read of it on the internet. Yet I know that if that boy
had made it to
school with his shotgun, the story would have been spread all
over the
television and newspapers for months to come, with much the same
frequency that it no doubt takes place within Sgt. Lovett's mind
as
he recovers from his own wounds.
I come from a cop's family, so I know that nothing anyone says
can ever
really stop the self-recrimination that this man must be feeling.
Even so,
I would like Sgt. Lovett to know that I sincerely believe that
he made
the correct decision on May 11. His quick action saved not only
his own life,
but also the life of young Nichols, and quite possibly several
others.
When he remembers the events of that day, I hope that he also
remembers what did not happen. I hope he remembers that no one
had to
rescue terrified children from a school-turned-war-zone. No one
had to
bag bodies or draw chalk outlines. No one had to face frightened
yet
hopeful parents or spouses and take away the hope forever.
And I hope that we, in turn, remember that we owe these non-events
to a man who made a hard decision at a crucial moment.

The Vulgar Pigboy Leads MNF Poll?
From: richard.russ@geac.com
Subject: Pigboy on MNF
Did you hear pigboy boasting about a poll
on MNF? He was going on
about how there were five answers, only
one favorable, and it had over 51% of
the vote! I located the web site
(NFLTALK.COM) and discovered two things
- 1) there must have been only about 30
or so votes, since my vote dropped the
51% to 45% (al by itself) and 2) you can
vote multiple times, so some
ditto-head probably voted about 15 - 20
times itself.
Usual Pigboy BS.
1-year gap in Bush's Guard
Duty
No Record of Smirk at Drills from 1972-73
AUSTIN, Texas - After George W. Bush became
governor in 1995, the Houston Air National
Guard unit he had served with during the
Vietnam War years honored him for his work, noting
that he flew an F-102 fighter-interceptor
until his discharge in October 1973.
And Bush himself, in his 1999 autobiography,
''A Charge to Keep,'' recounts the thrills
of his pilot training, which he completed
in June 1970. ''I continued flying with my unit
for the next several years,'' the governor
wrote.
But both accounts are contradicted by copies
of Bush's military records, obtained by
the Globe. In his final 18 months of military
service in 1972 and 1973, Bush did not fly at all.
And for much of that time, Bush was all
but unaccounted for: For a full year, there is no record
that he showed up for the periodic drills
required of part-time guardsmen.
From May to November 1972, Bush was in Alabama
working in a US Senate campaign,
and was required to attend drills at an
Air National Guard unit in Montgomery. But there
is no evidence in his record that he did
so. And William Turnipseed, the retired general who
commanded the Alabama unit back then, said
in an interview last week that
Bush never appeared for duty there.
After the election, Bush returned to Houston.
But seven months later, in May 1973,
his two superior officers at Ellington
Air Force Base could not perform his annual
evaluation covering the year from May 1,
1972 to April 30, 1973 because, they wrote, '
'Lt. Bush has not been observed at this
unit during the period of this report.''
Bush, who declined to be interviewed on
the issue, said through a spokesman that he has
''some recollection'' of attending drills
that year, but maybe not consistently.
ha ha
I have "some recollection" of Smirk running for president in the year 2000.
Great Democratic Quotes
I'm perfectly content believing that the
other side is well intentioned and
passionate about their beliefs, and that
they love their country as much as I do,
but that they just have different ideas.
I know that Orrin Hatchis a good guy.
I know that Gary Bauer is a good guy. I
don't want to see Denny Hastert or
Trent Lott go to jail. Our attitude is
that we like to laugh and have fun.
And as a result of that, we've had some
amazing things happen on the show.
The Rev. Pat Robertson, for example, turned
to me, praised Bill Clinton and
said to me, 'You know, I'm a lot more liberal
than you think.'And I disagree
with Rev. Robertson on almost everything,
but I think he's a good person.
-- Paul Begala, co-host of Equal Time
This is the big difference between the two parties.
The Democrats are decent people, willing to get along.
