Quotes
"If I were a Democrat, I suspect I'd feel a
heck of
a lot more comfortable in Boston than,
say, America."
-- Armey the foul-mouthed Dick,
on Boston hosting the 2004 Demo convention,
proving
he has the same grasp on geography that the Bush boys has.
This didn't get posted yesterday....
Gore
Says Bush's War on Terrorism Is Ineffective
by the NYW Times
Excerpt:
Mr. Gore said that while the administration
had stumbled abroad in dealing with Al Qaeda,
it had undertaken the "most systematic
invasion of privacy of every American citizen that has
ever been taken in this country"
with the expanded use of wiretapping and secret court
proceedings in the war on terrorism.
"Pro-lifer"
admits murder
Republicans always lie about labels
"I murder
the innocent"
Excerpt:
The scumbag, 47, said his moral outrage
over a woman's right to
control her own body prompted him to shoot
the doctor in the back
on Oct. 23, 1998, as he was warming soup
in the kitchen of his home.
What's
Our Drug Czar Smoking?
The truth about marihuana
Excerpt:
As to Walters' claim that all those '70s
hippies were getting goofy on the
1-percent stuff - the basis for his 30-fold
increase claim - the number lacks
credibility. No one smokes 1-percent dope,
at least not more than once.
That's what we get in Oklahoma - the 1-percent crap
Dueling Quotes
"The press never printed the smart things I
said."
--Dick Armey
"If stupid ideas ever get to $40 a barrel,
I want the drilling rights to Dick
Armey's head."
-- Paul Begala
Rush spent yesterday screaming at trial lawyers.
He says trial lawyers are ruining America.
Of course, when Paula Jones filed the most frivolous suit in history,
he thought trial lawyers
were the greatest thing since baked ham. Republicans -
they can never make up their minds.
By the way, did anybody see Erin Brockovich?
That's some of what trial lawyers do.
If you or your kids have been screwed by a billion dollar corporation
with 300 lawyers,
a trial lawyer might be able to even the odds a little so the
little guy can catch a break.
When the soulless corporation can make an extra nickel screwing
the public, they will.
Rush thinks people shouldn't have the right to sue when they're
killed or injured.
All this came up because the GOP wants the drug companies to be
suit free.
Hey, trust me, drug companies are all super-rich.
They're not in any trouble at all.
They have a monopoly on the drugs that keeps us alive.
They have a monopoly on a drug that can make an old man's penises
work again,
They're not going anywhere.
If all they did was cure breast cancer, they might be in trouble.
But if they can make a rich man's Tom Delay get hard - they own
the Federal Reserve.
But Rush and the Premier Pinhead don't believe in business being held responsible.
I forget which, but Ford or GM got sued a while back over knowingly
selling cars with exploding gas tanks.
Thru discovery, the plaintiffs got hold of an internal memo where
the company said it would be cheaper
to pay the families of cooked victims than fixing the gas tank.
They don't care if someone's mother burns to death in a car -
it's cheaper to write her family
a check instead of paying for an expensive recall. They
don't care how many innocents spend
their last minutes on Earth at 300 degrees - they're here to
make a profit!
That's why you can't have caps of the amount someone can sue for.
If the cap is $1 million, and a recall costs $600 million, they
can giggle like Smirk at
the execution of a black man because they're still saving giant
boxcars
full of Benjamins.
They don't give a flying "F" if 500 innocent people burn
to death - they're Republicans.
Of course, the wimpy Democrats caved in and allowed this
gang-rape bill to become law.
We expect them to cave in now - there's no longer any
suspense about "if," ...just "when."
Today's Democrats are as spineless as the GOP is heartless.
...and it wouldn't even be that bad if they were at least smart crooks!
But nooooooooooooo.
Democrats sell out for a handfull of magic goddamn beans that
don't work.

Last year, ...when the bartcopstore

For a lot of years, Yahoo.com has been my home
page.
In the last 30-50 days, they've turned all whore on me.
I try to read my mail, amd I can't, because the ship in FIREFLY
is zooming across
my monitor and I can't get to my mail. This really
sucks. I don't mind a company
trying to make a buck, but don't f-ing blindfold me with a ship
from a show I won't watch.
I'm an important man (cough) - I
have dozens of readers.
I don't have time to play patty-cake with every advertiser Yahoo
is in bed with.
I wouldn't even mind if they had a small ad in the corner, but
nooooooooooo.
It's gotta be a "Willie Horton's on
his way to your mom's house," flashing screamer.
So - I need a new home page.
I've been with Yahoo for ten years, but we gotta break up.
What's a good wake-up-to-news homepage?
It's not a bonus issue, it's more like a...
Bush the "strategic thinker," working them binocs...
They keep telling us he's not the biggest moron on Earth,
and we understand why it's important that he's not considered
the stupidest handjob in America, but we all know that he really is.
Daschle says 'shrill' talk radio spurs threats
Excerpt:
"...what happens when Rush Limbaugh attacks
those of us in public life is that people
aren't satisfied just to listen. They
want to act because they get emotionally invested.
And so the threats to those of us in public
life go up dramatically, on our families and
on us, in a way that's very disconcerting,"
he said.

Taking
the Fifth
by my good friend Chris Floyd
Excerpt:
Since last we met, George W. Bush has been
enthroned in near-absolute power by
a whopping, er, 21 percent of the American
electorate, which narrowly voted in a slate
of congressional Republican rubber-stamps
-- who bid fair to outdo Baghdad's
parliamentarians in their cringing obedience
to the all-wise Leader.

with the Axis on the run at Guadalcanal,
Buna, Stalingrad and North Africa.

There's a Christmas Train in Tulsa.
I'm not sure what it does, but you ride somewhere and the kids
meet Santa.
Their commercials say the train runs
"Sunday thru Saturday till Christmas."
What the hell does that mean?
If it runs everyday, why not just say that?
Mum's no longer the word
Last we heard from Susan McDougal, she was
contemplating political office.
Instead, she penned a tell-all about her
incarceration for refusing to rat out
Bill Clinton in the Whitewater deal.
The sassy jailbird calls The Woman
Who Wouldn't Talk (introduction by Helen Thomas)
"a love note" to her supporters. But it's
more the tale of how she ended up in the middle of the
probe and, ultimately, behind bars. Titillation
is minimal, but she gets in a few good digs.
On the ex-prez: "I have never known another
human being who needed to be told
all the time how great he is."
Former nemesis Kenneth Starr and his cronies
are "middle-aged, moralistic morons who were
obsessed with sex." So why did she clam
up? "That's the whole damn book," she tells Whispers.
As McDougal criss-crosses the country on
her January book tour, she'll also engage in what
she now views as her true calling: visiting
prisons to survey the treatment of female inmates,
then spilling the beans to local press.

For those of you who don't know, I invited Susan to write a regular
column for bartcop.com
She replied in the affirmative, saying "I
think that would be a lot of fun."
I told her she could write about anything she wanted.
I suspect she's got a few things to say about the man some call
"Mr. President."
When she spoke in Tulsa in 1999, you would've thought I'd written
her speech,
except her language was very ladylike. It's my opinion she does
not
like the GOP.
She didn't set a date for the first column, because she is busy
promoting her book.
Let's hope those columns start real soon.
Subject: I sent you some money
Hey BC -
A few issues back you made a statement that if
some small percentage of BartCop readers subscribed,
you could grow the hammer full time and help
create a credible media voice for liberals and progressives.
It was a REALLY small percentage, I was very
surprised (must be a heck of a lot cheaper to live in
Oklahoma than New England).
Anyway, I opened yesterday's issue and read where
Rush was talking about how oil spills aren't really
disasters and who cares about that wildlife anyway,
and I just lost it. For some reason, that story pushed
all the right (wrong?) buttons for me.
So I am now a proud BartCop subscriber. I feel good!
I think you should restate that subscribership
goal, and do it in terms of the actual number of subscribers you need.
Is it 500? 1000? Man, how hard could
it be to find that many liberals to cough up $10-20 a month?
I know the BFEE is doing everything it can to
make sure our side remains poor and destitute, but come on!
Keep swingin' -
Quahog
Quahog, if 300 people subscribed at $10 a month, bartcop.com
could go full-time.
And I could even publish on the days when Vic the Racist tales off.
Having no day job would allow BartCop
Radio to become a reality, too
A couple of people subscribe every week, so maybe this will happen by next Christmas.

Amazing how many people remember Richard Pryor
as Sheriff Bart in Blazing Saddles
... though in fact it was Cleavon Little.
John
John, Pryor wrote the "negro jokes" for Blazing Saddles.
Brooks wanted him for the Cleavon Little part, but the studio said
Pryor was too unstable to bet the cost of the movie on.
Bush promised to get bin Laden.
He vowed "to bring him to justice or bring
justice to him."
That's why his approval numbers went to the high eighties.
That was 424
days ago ...and counting
The good puppy press has forgotten,
the good puppy press has forgiven,
...but we won't.

Bart, just wanted you to know that Rush is still 17th in DC at WMAL.
He has been there for many months.
Looks like all his favorite pols don't like to listen to him.

Please tell everyone about www.eurolegal.org/uspoleur.shtml,
which I've just discovered:
the biggest and boldest site exposing Bush's
fascism; and (unlike others that you link to)
it does so from the standpoint of the EU, which
really knows fascism when it sees it.
For example, click there on "Funding the US Neoconservatives
-- How big business engineered
a shift to the right in US poublic policy." Read
it and weep. And click on "The USA and Europe
under George W. Bush -- The issues upsetting
Europe."
Where else will you find: "Rumsfeld is the Darth
Vader of the Bush Administration and reportedly
considers General Colin Powell a wimp"? There
are some misspellings, but the information is
remarkably comprehensive, accurate, and well
presented and organized. And this authoritative
European progressive voice complements what one
finds on the other sites that you currently link to.
So, I think that this one would be a BIG plus.
Ho...
ho...
ho!
