President Bush says he's really going to buckle down now and fight global warming. As a matter of fact, he announced today he's sending 20,000 troops to the sun" --David Letterman

is an interesting story -- it turns out that before the U.S. Invaded Iraq,
Saddam Hussein said he would quit the presidency and leave the country if he
were given $1 billion. Yeah. Yeah, when he heard this, President Bush said,
‘Hell, I’ll do it for $10,000.’” - Conan O’Brien

Carrying Secrecy Too Far
The nation is preparing
for its biggest terrorism exercise ever next week when three fictional "dirty
bombs" go off and cripple transportation arteries in two major U.S. cities and
Guam, according to a document obtained by The Associated Press.
Yet even as this drill begins, details from the previous national exercise held
in 2005 have yet to be publicly released —
information that's supposed to help officials prepare for the next real attack.

Subject: re "Chertoff: Illegals 'degrade' environment"
What a tool. Like a pile
of crap in the border area desert, which will be totally gone in about four
days, degrades the environment more than the millions of gallons of water pumped
daily from a drying aquifer to keep lawns in Phoenix green.
Where do these idiots come from? All the piles of garbage left by all the
desperate people risking everything in a suicidal attempt to better themselves
can't compare with the damage done drilling one oil well on a thawing tundra.
That loud pop you just heard was Michael Chertoff pulling his head out of his
ass. Oops, wait, it was some redneck asshole shooting at an unarmed migrant.
Sorry, my bad.

Let's deport these crazy neocon Republicans and there will be plenty of room for hardworking immigrants!
Fred Thompson, Cock Fan
On a three-day tour of Iowa this week, as he ambled through a truck stop on his way to Iowa Falls, he wore a baseball cap emblazoned with the word “Cocks” — a reference to the Gamecocks of the University of South Carolina — had a large, unlit cigar in his mouth, wore a tieless shirt and faded chinos, and looked to all the world like a guy who would have been just as comfortable buying live bait as preparing for his next speech.
