Nice work if you can get it

This is exactly what Ann Coulter is talking about in her book GODLESS. How does this woman afford to go around the world stalking President Bush. I can't fly to Austria at the drop of a hat. I have a job and it is expensive to travel like this.

The way this picture is composed you can't see if there are more than 20 people here. The shot is made to fill the frame with protesters so it looks like a big crowd. Why are the signs in English? There are most likely more press than protesters. If you held a rally in your home town and 100 people showed up would the AP carry you water for you like this?

Too bad her son was so courageous and a fine example of American manhood. Really I am serious about that. If he was not then we would not know this Asshat existed. I like the little shaker she has in her hands. I guess it is like her money maker. Why is she yelling when she has a mic and a PA?

U.S. peace activist Cindy Sheehan of Vacaville, California, speaks to leftist protesters in downtown Vienna, Austria, Wednesday, June 21, 2006, as they rally against U.S. President George W. Bush's visit. President Bush is in Vienna to attend the EU-US summit.

What if you held a frog march and nobody came?

Ode to Karl Rove

by the Mother of all Blog Pimps

There will be no frog march for Karl rove. No jubilant summer, no victory in the fall. No Goregasam on Hard Ball no Right wing Cabal. No sentence or note of resignation. No Panic in the streets. No report to Congress, no Speech on the step of the Supremes.

This is the cold hard truth and you don’t need Diebold to tell you the score. It’s done, get used to it, it’s gone get over it, Get happy, he ain’t going nowhere. Don’t be a hater you couldn’t win from the start. We will speak no truth to power no words work anymore.

There wasn’t any evidence you see of a crime so no indictment no time. No orange jumpsuit custom made for his once large frame and good luck on trying to ruin his name. It’s no crime some have come to find to state the facts from time to time or better yet just except your defeat and move along don’t try to make it a moral victory that cause is gone.

You got your investigation and “Scooter Libby’s resignation so be glad with that and I hope your friends the reporters don’t have to supply you as one of the sources of the name that shall live in infamy and be remembered in Encyclopedias maybe as the wife of Joe Wilson that king of all media. That sprung from the bosom of Africa and on the covers of Vanity Fair as the critic, the ace in the hole, the number one provocateur.

With an election time book, an October surprise, that is sure to please the masses in the beltway, and men who think themselves wise.

We some Rapin and killin mofos over here

So let me see if I get this right. Iraq is roughly 10% the population of the United States so they would need to have roughly 1700 sectarian murders to equal our regular murders per capita. Isn't that interesting?

A YEAR IN AMERICA: 16,912 MURDERS; 92,837 RAPES

this too..AN ESTIMATED 84,563 AMERICANS HAVE BEEN MURDERED SINCE 9-11...

So if you get a cap busted in yo ass in South Philly or in South Baghdad, it really makes no difference to Fatima and the kids at home, does it? That is the message I get what about you? At least if you get shot in South Philly the people that did it won't chop your head off and put a video of the deed on Al Jezeera and on the Internet like they do over in the Middle East.

The Incontentent truth

This is so funny. I haven't seen the movie yet but isn't Al Gore like the main character in the movie? Isn't it just a movie who's sole content is the presentation that former Vice President Gore has taken world wide in his Gulf Stream G5? Wasn't he at the Cann Premier. Why did drudge have to go there?

GORE NAME DROPPED FROM 'WARMING'

MOVIE POSTER, CREDITS
Wed Jun 07 2006 10:28:38 ET

Former Vice President Al Gore's name is nowhere to be found on Paramont's poster campaign for the new 'global warming' movie 'AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH.'

Gore's name is not featured on the dramatic poster promoting the movie -- a poster which welcomes moviegoers at the nation's theaters!

"It's not a political movie," a top source at PARAMOUNT explained, offering no other explanation on why Gore's name does not appear, even in the film's credits on the poster.

Here is the real inconvenient truth of the movie (ed)

A rival studio executive claims marketing research showed little audience interest in a movie starring Al Gore.

The film has made $2,070,413 so far at the boxoffice in limited release.

There aint no good news for Bush

Written by The Resista Wednesday, 07 June 2006 03:11

Bias finds a million ways to express it's self. This is just another one.

When President Bush nominated Gen. Michael Hayden to run the CIA, the press focused on
disapproving Democrats and even some Republicans who were dubious about confirmation.
A month later, when the Senate confirmed Hayden by a 78-15 vote, the story was given much less
emphasis in the media, which had moved on to other stories critical of the Bush administration.
Similarly, when Bush nominated one of his aides, Brett Kavanaugh, to the federal judiciary, the
press was filled with reports about Democrats threatening a filibuster because Kavanaugh once
worked for special prosecutor Kenneth Starr in the case against President Clinton.

Last week, there was much less media coverage of a Rose Garden ceremony in which Bush presided
over the swearing-in of Kavanaugh, who had been confirmed by a 57-36 vote.
Bush has quietly been racking up small victories like these that seem at odds with the media’s
conventional wisdom of a presidency on the skids.

In addition to success with his nominations, Bush also is presiding over a booming economy and is
even scoring some foreign policy advances, although Iraq remains bloody.
“In today’s political climate, daily headlines and fast-moving events make it easy to lose the forest
for the trees,” Bush counselor Dan Bartlett wrote in a memo this week. “But there is a clear tide of
positive developments that reflect the president’s ability to get things done.”
Bartlett’s memo was dismissed as “happy talk” by Mark Halperin, political director of ABC News.
And White House correspondent Ken Herman of Cox Newspapers noted that Barlett “found reason
for optimism in Iraq ... on a day when gunmen rounded up 56 people at a Baghdad bus stop.”
Yet the White House remains convinced it is not getting a fair shake from the mainstream media.

“We hear a great deal about the problems we face,” Bush aide Peter Wehner wrote in an op-ed
published Monday by the Washington Post. “We hear hardly anything about encouraging
developments.

“Off-key as it may sound in the current environment, a strong case can be made that in a number of
areas there are positive trends and considerable progress,” he added.
Bartlett acknowledged that press reports of U.S. Marines killing civilians in Haditha, Iraq, “are
unsettling for the American people.”
He and other aides conceded that Bush still faces myriad
vexing problems, ranging from high gasoline prices to the deluge of illegal immigration.
These realities and their attendant negative press coverage have made Bush aides almost apologetic
when they point out good news.
“President Bush’s leadership is achieving a steady flow of results that do not always dominate the
day’s headlines on thier own but that together represent real progress for the American people,”
Bartlett said.
