" … You know, no one wants to go to war. Nobody wants to go to war. Everyone wants peace, and -- but I wonder, do those people [ Bush protestors ] wish Saddam Hussein was still there? You know, do they wish that his torture rooms were still there and I don't know. You know, I don't know if that's what they mean with their protests; if they'd rather have Saddam Hussein still in power, I'm not really sure." -- LAURA BUSH in an interview with PBS, making about as much sense as her husband

TIME Magazine: Do you think these swift-boat ads are unfair to John Kerry?

LAURA BUSH: Do I think they're unfair? Not really. There have been millions of terrible ads against my husband."

"My -- you never hear my husband say things that other members of other parties

like you heard people say about him for the first six months of the Democrat

primary -- and during the Democratic primary, and I know that it is a very big

disappointment of his because that was not how it was when he was governor in

our home state. Democrats and Republicans worked together." LAURA BUSH

"You f***ing son of a bitch. I saw what you wrote. We're not going to forget this."

Lisa,

Ran across your site while googling.

Great site but—

It is so annoying that so many news links in the older editions are dead or you have to pay for them.

I hear ya. But that is capitalism exercised by the news organizations, over which I have no control.

I do try to link to websites such as CNN, ABC, Guardian etc…who keep their news stories online and free.

Sadly, speech isn’t always free.

Thanks for writing.

With all the flag-waving and Swifty Boat antics still going on
at the Republican National Convention, I thought it only fair to offer
another article about Mr. Bush's military service -- or lack of it -- along with
some details of how and why he was able to get into the National Guard
when other men of lesser wealth were being sent to Vietnam to die.
I see where those compassionate conservatives in New York are
running around wearing band-aids with a purple heart on them
as their way of mocking John Kerry's service in Vietnam.
Read this article and see how childish that seems.

Of course, Republicans want to denigrate Kerry, his medals and his band of brothers, because Bush doesn't have any.

The bride-to-be said: "A long frilly white dress with a veil."

The sales clerk didn't know quite what to say but she finally said,
"Frankly, madam, gowns of that nature are considered more appropriate for
brides who are being married the first time, for those who are a bit more
innocent, if you know what I mean?"

"Well," replied the customer, more than a little put out. "I can assure you
that I am as innocent as the rest of them. Believe it or not, despite all my
marriages, I remain as innocent as any first time bride. You see, my first
husband was so excited about our wedding he died as we were checking into
our hotel. My second husband and I got into a terrible fight in the limo on
our way to the reception and have not spoken since. We had that wedding
annulled immediately."

"What about your third husband" asked the sales clerk?

"Well" said the woman, "he was a Republican and every night for four years he
just sat on the edge of the bed and told me how good it was going to be."
