"In his press conference the other night, President Bush said freedom is a gift from the Almighty, and we have been called by God to use our military power to spread freedom throughout the world. Then he called that Sadr guy in Iraq a religious nutcase." Jay Leno

"President Bush earned $400,000 for his job as president last year. That's not really that much, but see President Bush, he doesn't do it for the money, he does it for the eight months of vacation every year..."  Jay Leno

Hi,

Love the site!

Bush got it wrong about the mustard gas, but I know which turkey farm is the primary site for the manufacture of WMDs*: The Whitehouse.

* WMD - Words of Mendacious Deceit

Hmmm, maybe the correct word is manurefacture?

Since RNC has come out with its Tax Invaders Game, somebody needs to cut loose with
"What would George do?", a board game where the objective is to take a great nation with a thriving economy and international respect, and trash its freedoms, intimidate its citizens, destroy its social support systems, strive to give the rich more money, declare and mismanage senseless wars, etc. Pieces are advanced along a path of descision squares. At a square, the player draws a situation card, which requires a decision. The more dumb-ass the decision the greater the points awarded. The winner is declared once a player has accumulated enough dumb-ass points to piss-off the Almighty thereby precipitating the Rapture. (Was this the rationale for George backing Sharon's Gaza plan?)

My vote for a two four-letter word bumper sticker campaign? - BUSH LIES!

"If a year ago you had asked me to describe where you would be on April 15, 2004, in Iraq, how might you describe it ... I would not have described it precisely as we are now." Donald Rumsfeld admitting his judgment was wrong on Iraq

 "In his testimony before the 9/11 Commission today, CIA Director George Tenet said it would take another five years to have the kind of intelligence service our country needs. Yeah, thanks for letting everybody know that. Good job! 'We're defenseless for five years!'"
Conan O'Brien
 

A satellite picture of the desert of southwest Peru, between the Andes Mountains and the Peruvian coast, lies a plateau exhibiting some peculiar archeology. Huge geometric patterns and spirals, animal figures including a monkey, a spider and an 'owl man', and thousands of perfectly straight lines are immaculately etched onto the desert's surface. The last of these was drawn about a thousand years ago. Known as the Nazca lines, the drawings have mystified scientists since they were first discovered in the 1920s.(NASA/HO)

 Peace.
