March 18 2003 ORANGE TERROR
ALERT
Sorry
the cartoon today isn't funny -- but that was my intent as we are on the brink
of starting an unprovoked war. I was inspired by a poll I saw. The poll
said almost 50% of Americans think Saddam Hussein was involved with the 9-11
attack. The blarney this administration has fed to the media has worked.

Bush faces peace
pretzel flood
George W Bush could face an avalanche
of salty snacks
After the diplomatic friction between France and the US over war in Iraq,
food is fast becoming the new theatre of transatlantic tension.
First a number of US restaurants renamed "French fries" as "Freedom fries".
Now a French anti-war website has launched a campaign to bombard the White
House with pretzels - the snack which caused George W Bush an injury in
January 2001.
The site, www.bretzelforbush.com,
asks people to donate seven euros, of which six will be spent on buying and
despatching pretzels to Washington, and one given to a children's charity,
the Global Movement for Children.

Quotes from Jesus
George Bush's Favorite Political Philosopher
“Violence is forbidden for those who wish to follow me.” “Be
compassionate to these least.” “Forgive 70 times seven.” “Love your enemies
and feed them if they are hungry.” “Thou shall not kill anybody — friend,
neighbour or enemy, for violence is counter-productive to my mission.”
Prayerfully read Matthew 25: 31-46, the Last Judgment passage, where the
blueprint for living the godly life is so clearly laid out. It is not how
religious you were, nor how often you prayed, nor even how often you went to
church that will judge you, but whether you were merciful or not “to the
least of these.”
Then Jesus might say to George W. Bush and others who claim to be followers
of Jesus: “And right now, your final judgment test is going to be how you
treat my beloved Iraqi children.”

When I heard George Bush say
that Jesus was his favorite political philosopher I knew he was lying. Proof
above.
And who in America believed
that George Bush choked on a pretzel? Not me.
"I'm saddened, saddened that
this president failed so miserably at diplomacy that we're now forced to war,
saddened that we have to give up one life because this president couldn't create
the kind of diplomatic effort that was so critical for our country." - Tom
Daschle

subject: Charlie Daniels
Thanks for the article on Chickenhawk, Charlie Daniels. I am
sure this man must sleep well at night, knowing he caused a woman to lose her
job.
What I would like to know, is what excuse he used to get out of Vietnam. They
all have some ridiculous reason, like Rush Limbaugh, and his anal cysts...and on
and on and on!
Can you please tell me what he got out for?? It is important to me, since my
brother went to Vietnam....was there two months and died, for the likes of his
fatass!!! He and Cheney and Bush and Limbaugh, Delay, Lott...Geez, the list
never ends!
My brother came home in a body bag on Mothers day in 1968...Old,
Charlie was likely smoking a joint and singing his meaningless songs!
Shirley....St.Louis.
Shirley, I couldn't find a
military record on Charlie Daniels on his website or the google I did on him. If
he served in the military, his website would have mentioned it. Nor could I find
any deferment info on him.
When I visited the Vietnam
Memorial in Washington last spring I was struck how respectful and eerily quiet
the crowds were. Tears flowed easily. Seeing that black marble scar the
earth with almost 60,000 names engraved (many who I knew) always takes my breath
away.
Thank you for writing. Thank
you to your brother.
With War Imminent, Veterans Are Angry
Many veterans who fought in World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the Persian Gulf
War are furious that the Bush administration is hell bent on destroying the hard
work of peacemaking in its bullheaded stumbling to war in Iraq. About to take
their message to the streets of Washington, read what they are saying.
By Jan Barry
As our troops mass on the borders of Iraq, the United States government should
listen to Americans who have been to war and learned hard lessons from military
campaigns. Hundreds of outraged veterans have sent comments to the web site of
Veterans Against Iraq War ( www.vaiw.org )
that is circulating a statement to Congress and President Bush signed by
veterans and military family members. This statement is to be delivered in a
march on Washington this coming Sunday, March 23.

JEB WATCH:
Audit? What audit?
What happened to $517 million? Why didn't Jeb tell us sooner?
March 18, 2003
State Senate Democratic Leader Ron Klein wants a committee formed to find out
why Florida's employee pension fund owes the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services $517 million. It's a good question — one suppressed by outgoing HHS
Inspector General Janet Rehnquist before the 2002 gubernatorial election.
According to a report available last week, a top aide to Gov. Jeb Bush asked her
to sit on the draft audit until after the election, in which Bush was seeking
re-election
