Californians boot governor
Arkansas Democrat Gazette, AR - 10-8-03
...HIGH ABSENTEE VOTING Absentee voting was unusually
high. California’s 58 counties were already processing the 2.2 million
absentee ballots turned in before Tuesday. Statewide, voters had requested
3.2 million absentee ballots, and many of these will not be counted until
after election day. Civil rights groups set up a hot line to resolve voting
problems and had received about 300 calls...

THE
CONAN GENERATION: Younger men solidly back recall
Fort Worth Star Telegram, TX - 10-8-03
Men between the ages of 30 and 44 -- the ones who grew up
watching Arnold Schwarzenegger action movies such as ``Conan the
Barbarian,'' ``Terminator'' and ``Commando'' -- gave the Republican actor
his strongest support |
The last California governor to
be president was Ronald Reagan, who sent Donald Rumsfeld over to visit Saddam
Hussein, opening the door for our delivery of weapons of mass destruction to
him. And now we have attacked Iraq, again.
My sympathies are with
you, California.

The Grand Recall Ball
"Yes, we took
a big hit in the California Recall. We will be okay and we still have much
to look forward to: perp walks in the Wicked White Palace Rose Garden and
West Palm Beach; a third regime change in Iraq since the mission was
declared accomplished; The Democratic Candidates have a year to prove their
mettle and Bush to beat up in the process; Al Gore is about to roar with a
new television network for liberals; but wait, there's more ... we still
have Michael Moore, that should even up the score." - Anita Beer
hungover and rambling.

Hunt for Leaker Lacks Inspiration
Newsday -10-08-03
They can't find Osama bin Laden.
They can't find Saddam Hussein.
They can't find the weapons of mass destruction that propelled us into war.
And those are prizes the Bush administration would actually like to find....
...Lucky Bush didn't approach the search for Saddam with the same
lackadaisical shrug. Uday and Qusay would already be dating again by now.... |

shall be mine sayeth the Lord.
Yea, the leaker is

G-day Ladies:
From the heart of the Great Basin Desert, this just in....Orrin Hatch opens
mouth and nothing comes out. The only sound that can be heard is a grating
'fingernails down the chalkboard' screech. It has long been reported that Sen.
Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) is in fact from Utah. Couldn't be further from the truth.
He has in fact, NEVER been in the state of Utah. Has never even been NEAR the
state of Utah. His election was an elaborate fabrication and hoax perpetrated by
the Mormon Church to get even with Jerry Falwell. Falwell doesn't like Mormons
and vice versa.
Hatch does however, have a peculiar fascination with the body of
Arrnnhhoolldddddd. Sieg heil and snap those heels together.....schnell...schnell!
Hatch is notorious for initiating insane Constitutional Amendments. His last
foolery was an amendment to ban the descretion of the American flag. But, when
the Senator saw G. Bush writing all over 'old glory' he had to 'shut the f*ck
up'.
sincerely,
Don Nash
Murray, Utah
p.s. this is the absolute truth. really. no, really. i swear. well, i swear alot
but, that is not the point. really! :]
Dear Don,
Thanks for writing. You
almost had me going there.
I edit all profanity with a *.
You know what, whenever I look
at Orrin Hatch, I get that same creepy feeling as when I look at a pedophile.

"Why should we hear about body
bags and deaths and how many, what day it's going to happen, and how many

waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"

No person except a natural born
citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this
Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any
person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of
thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States.
-Article
II, Section I of the U.S. Constitution
Give me your tired, your poor, those yearning to be president
San Diego Union Tribune, CA -10-8-03
U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch of
Utah recently introduced a constitutional amendment opening the presidency to
naturalized citizens of foreign birth...
Comparable legislation has been offered on the House side by Massachusetts Rep.
Barney Frank.
Yet Frank's is the more conservative of the two bills. It would require 35
years' citizenship of an immigrant candidate...Hatch's bill, by contrast, calls
for only 20 years' citizenship – possibly noteworthy, inasmuch as Arnold
Schwarzenegger marked his 20th anniversary of becoming a citizen midway in the
recent recall campaign....
The right wing conspiracy
has been busy for longer than you think:

Dems to revive draft demand
Rep. Rangel and Sen. Hollings see new mood on Iraq
By
Alexander Bolton
Key Democrats in the House and Senate will renew calls for the military
draft as part of a critical barrage they are preparing to launch against
President Bush over the length of troop deployments and the heavy reliance
on reservists in Iraq.
Military experts outside Congress say there is a political advantage to be
gained by Democrats who want to make the president squirm at a time a
growing frustration among military families and other Americans over the
occupation....
so, to make bush squirm, we’ll draft the peasants’
kids….
http://www.hillnews.com/news/100703/draft.aspx
we’re in an illegal war that they were duped into
supporting .
but we knew that the draft was coming months ago, didn’t we? (remember when
it went essentially unnoticed – those newspaper ads where local draft boards
were looking to start hiring? when was that?) hardly any news here. THEIR
kids won’t be drafted. you can take that to the bank. along with your
devalued dollars.
these people (repukes and demolitionists both) have consistently screwed up
american foreign and domestic policy to the point that we are seriously in
the toilet, and they pretend otherwise – and fox news and most americans are
going grinningly, blindly along with them. nothing has mattered beyond the
money lining their pockets – it’s ALL fair game to these people – joseph
wilson’s wife, you and your kids, america, everything.
am i coming in clearly?
sorry.
i’ll take a break here. for a minute.
Dear Michelle,
We feel your pain.
And we concur. Bush War, Inc. may end up taking more lives than the
Vietnam war.
I wonder if the
new draft will have college deferments?
