Tried going to the places where you get 'em, but I'm not that computer literate. HI ANDREA!!!!! Glad you could make it to the Pah-tee!!! I am so fucking happy I could just SHIT!!!!! Go on the other thread, the one where our beloved chap, Cooqie is on, he's STILL at it...hehehehehe. I don't care, WE FUCKING WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it has the most comments out of all of them...maybe..hehehe. I'm kinda all around, you can find me on most of them, but Coo Coo Cooqie pretty much stays on that one, continuing to call me stupid fucking bitch, stupid woman, stupid this and stupid that. He's grasping at straws now, Bush won, and he won't let it DIE. :-)

10 If Rusty would do a chat room all this following threads and weaving back and forth wouldn't be so tuff. All the threads i look for on that post were closed. PS I hope to be one INEBRIATED CAJUN REDNECK woman tonight .... I am sittin in my office doing the wiggle my ass in the chair BUSH WON!! dance. Andrea

13 Andrea, taint so! I bookmarked the Ken Bigley Beheading thread, it's gotta still be around...keep scrolling around or go to homepage and look up old archives maybe? Hey Rusty, open the chatroom, I'll be the moderator!! ;-)

14 Here's a link http://in.rediff.com/news/2004/nov/03raman.htm which gives a reason why Indians would like to have Bush remain in the office not to include the economic effects too. Also to include news of the Bobby Jindal who is the first Indian American to be elected to the US Congress in 46 years after Dalip Singh a Democrat who represented California. A historic victory indeed " Democracy at its best Personally it's time Bush change tatics of his present policies. i'm sure he's aware that he'll have to do something for the wholiy divided country. The nuke thing has gone stale sorry to say!!!! On the lighter vein : Since Kerry( against outsourcing) is out of the way it's time the US outsourced their election system as it would be more cost effective 2000$ to 300$

15 Interesting

16 What's this picking on lesbians stuff. I feel a close kinship with lesbians. We both like Bush.

17 Yea Bobby Jindal. We ran him for Governor. Didn't make it. So we ran him for congress. Sort ruins the racist, redneck thing down here doesn't it. Any people of Indian decent elected in the liberal democratic states that voted for Kerry? Not? Proof is in the pudding.

1 No Rusty, America wins. And now it's crying time again. Another 4 years of bitching, crying, lying, and complaining. Her come the foreign assholes sticking their noses in our business. They'll say Bush stole the election even though he won the popular vote by 4 million. Now we have to listen to liberal nutso's saying how stupid Bush is. NEWS FOR YOU IDIOTS: IF BUSH IS DUMB HOW DUMB IS KERRY WHO LOST. I knew all along the democrats had the wrong man. Given the economy, the war etc: Any democrat off the streets could have got as many votes as Kerry. WRONG MAN, WRONG TIME, WRONG PLACE, WRONG ELECTION: Number 1 issue was not the war, the economy, or jobs. IT WAS MORAL VALUES. Something most liberals forget about. But most voters didn't.

2 More than moral values - American safety and security throughout the world. And you've gotta love a President who while standing in front of the Presidential helecopter, flips someone the bird. My respect for the guy just grew even more. Thanks for that. And thanks for the Live porn Blog.

3 Wait -- is he the giant douche or the turd sandwich?

4 FFFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKKKK YYYYEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am overjoyed that the liberals are once again going to be sent packing (like that is a new feeling for them) I guess all the commie-pinko, hippie, give peace a chance, liet's just hug Osama and give all our money to the poor are crying in their low carb non alcoholic beer. Good riddance to them. They can kiss my ass, along with Osama, Zarquawi and all the French and German knuckleheads that should be thanking us for not bombing them to the fucking stone age because they helped arm and supply Saddam. Keep up the good work Rusty...

5 Dr. Stocth- This is a bigger bite. Therefore, he is the shit sandwitch

6 Rusty: I need that picture of Bush. Please. Are we having fun yet? How about blocking all the cry babies for a few days so we can party.

7 Please don't take this the wrong way, but I'm really tired of listening to this ill-informed analysis. F**k you, terrorists? What are you talking about? Bin Laden is the guy who killed 3000 innocent Americans on 9/11, not Saddam Hussein. We pursued a guy who had not been supporting terrorism against America. A recent poll showed that 62% of Republicans believe that Saddam had something to do with the 9/11 attacks. But please, people, do the research. Saddam had nothing to do with 9/11. The policy to attack Iraq was created in the 90's by people like Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz, who have great influence over the current administration. For instance, they wrote a letter to Clinton in 1998 urging Clinton to topple Saddam -- and terrorism was not a reason. (Link: http://www.newamericancentury.org/iraqclintonletter.htm ). There is only one way a person can get away with saying that Bush is nailing the terrorists. And that's if you listen to Bush campaign spin. Even Bush's own State Department acknowledged that terrorism around the world is increasing and that anti-American anger has reached "shocking levels." The only reason they admitted that is because Colin Powell tries to be a decent and honest man, although he did slip up and embarrass himself during his UN presentation. In a second term, we will hear even more skewed statistics, and even more exaggerations about Bush's success than we heard last term. And last term we heard enough of it to convince enough Republicans that Bush is now an eight-year president -- completely embarrassing for a man whose policies have been abject failures. Bush has the worst jobs record of any president since the Great Depression. Even during those rare months Bush has a supposedly good jobs showing, job growth barely outpaces population growth and overall, it has not. Clinton created more than 20 million jobs. Bush's fiscal policy is a disaster. You can't cut taxes on the rich at the same time you're going to war, particularly if you already have huge deficits! This is utter, irresponsible insanity. But how many people actually pay attention to stuff like this? Most people like Bush because they identify with him. He's a good Christian, a nice, honest man. Great. That doesn't make him special. And it doesn't make him qualified to lead the free world. Bush has failed time and again, and America has embarrassed itself by reelecting him anyway. Today, I am ashamed to be an American. I know we can do better than this. We don't have to bully the world. That's unproductive. America has always tried to set a positive example for the world, not bludgeon it. Bush threw away more than two centuries of American foreign policy, and for what? We removed a guy who Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice said in 2001 was not very dangerous, who nuclear inspectors before the invasion confirmed had no nuclear program, and who terrorism experts have long known was not collaborating with al-Qaeda and was not involved in terrorism against America. The problem is that there are so many people who want to believe what the president says, that he's strong on terrorism and taking the fight to our enemies. What he's really doing is beginning a process of American self-destruction, and I can only pray that the damage he does in his second term is somehow limited -- though how it will be I don't know since Republicans will control Congress, the Senate, and the Supreme Court, and soon have a radical Supreme Court on their side. It isn't enough to support someone just because he's a Republican. Democracy is pointless if we don't actually analyze a candidate and put him through the ringer. Republicans didn't do this, and I'm angry at every single person who cared more about supporting George W. Bush than they did about honestly reflecting about what is best for this country. Bush came into office in 2001 with almost no grasp of foreign policy. Brent Scowcroft, HW Bush's national security advisor, said W Bush wasn't comfortable with foreign policy. Richard Perle, who designed much of the Iraq war, said Bush "didn't know very much." The problem wasn't just foreign policy. Paul O'Neill, Bush's former Treasury Secretary, said Bush didn't understand economics. And if you've heard Bush speak about either economics or foreign policy, it really comes as no surprise that he doesn't understand them. Immediately before 9/11, Bush spent almost all of a month and a half on vacation. We've all heard about Richard Clarke's complaints. But Clarke is just the tip of the iceberg. Former counterterrorism director Rand Beers said the Bush administration had no clue about terrorism ( even after 9/11. Former FBI terrorism director Dale Watson said he almost fell out of his chair when he saw Ashcroft's planning guidance for 2001 because Ashcroft had removed all of Janet Reno's bulletpoints for terrorism. The Pentagon hadn't even FILLED its counterterrorism position by 9/11; the leadership there was concentrating on finding a way to invade Iraq. I know Americans are concerned about terrorism. But come on, people. Talking about terrorism and waging a successful campaign against it are not one and the same. Bush has the bluster and the confidence. He just doesn't have the policy, and it saddens me that the first two seem to be enough to win an election these days. Bush's energy policy is terrible, and endangers national security. We needed a fresh start. Now we won't get it for at least four years, further endangering our long-term security. Americans are losing healthcare coverage at an alarming rate, but now we can't fix the problem for at least another four years. Bush will continue to try press for his "tax cuts" for the wealthy. Because we are in deep deficits, however, these are not tax cuts so much as they are loans from the middle class of the future (our kids) to give handouts to the wealthiest Americans of today. In the middle of an expensive campaign against terrorism, should this really be our priority? What are we doing? Bush looks at the world ideologically: tax cuts are correct, period. But the world just isn't that simple, and I PROMISE you that such naivete will DESTROY America. Empires fall, you know, and we cannot get by on this sort of crude, myopic policy. It will come back to kick us in the rear. By then, the memories of your Nov. 2, 2004 celebrations of a Bush win will have long faded, and perhaps you'll realize the dangers in caring more about a single politician than about openly seeking what is best for the country. Hopefully by then it will not be too late.

8 Fuck, here comes another foreigner sticking his nose in. Well, America, well done. You've got the President you deserve. A monkey in a suit. The problem is, we have to put up with him as well. Sorry for sticking my nose in but when it affects us so much I feel as though I should. Thanks. Thanks for nothing. Thanks for war and a rise in terror. Thanks for a President who's a fool. Thanks.

9 Klr......There is no doubt that you will be ridiculed beyond belief after that excellent post. I too, have made similar posts only to be accused of being an "America hater and a traitor". However this is democracy and the people have spoken. I am just amazed that so many otherwise intelligent people can be duped with such ease. However we must respect the choice of the electorate.

10 "how many American people can be duped into such ease" Here we go with the comments now! We are the smartest country on the face of the earth. Funny, how so many foreigners can be duped with such ease to believe such nonsense. Before we start the party, can someone tell me why they haven't officially conceded YET...do we still need more votes from Ohio? Rusty, can you jpeg the pics of Bush to my email addy? I'd love to send them to some Bush friends of mine. Thanks.

11 Heh, heh.

12 F88k You bin Laden, F88k you Zarqawi- better run boyz. F88k you Iran, F88k you North Korean- better give up those nukes now before you hurt yourselves, F88k you France, oh one more time- F88k you France and your puppy Germany- multipolor this baby, F88k you Kofi- no body gives a s88t what you think. ahhhhhh, much better. Thanks Rusty.

13 Jees Jane, you really are nuts aren't you?

14 A "f88k you" attitude never got anyone anywhere except trouble. By all means, enjoy your victory. Lets see how many of you will be smiling when you have lost your jobs, and your country has become the target of every lunatic terrorist group. Gloat while it lasts, but the clock is ticking. Unfortunately for the rest of us we will have to suffer with you.

15 Funny how when America proves we've been right all along, the lib's and anti-war folks can't just bow out gracefully...they remain on here, gluttons for punishment. I knew the comments would start flowing in, such as "wait till such and such happens", "intelligent people were duped into believing Bush's promises", "the chance for world peace is gone"...blah, blah, blah.... Just go cry in your "pints" and start your own blog...This one is for the WINNERS. yeah baby.

16 Yes, all those dead American troops sure are winners.

17 Congrats goes out to the Republicans. The deal isn't sealed, but it pretty much is. What can I say the people have spoken. Well, the ones smart enough to vote anyway. Now lets see something done about Iran and North Korea.

18 Matt and James, I highly recommend that you boys get over yourselves and move ahead with life. You want to be pissed off for four more years? Knock yourselves out but, the only people that you're hurting are yourselves.

19 Yeah, piss off, we've got a whole lotta gloating to get done. FOUR MORE YEARS! Bwahahahaha!

20 What the fuck's going on? They are NOT calling it a win....YET??!!

21 HEHEHE, watching "Regis", and they made a very short mention of the election, and how it's pretty sure that Bush is in, and they subtley went on to another subject. Now, had KERRY won, they'd STILL be talking about it. I love NYC, it's where I was born and raised, but TOUGH SHIT guys!!!

22 "What the fuck's going on? They are NOT calling it a win....YET??!!" Laura: Just out of curiousity, do you pay attention to actual news sources? Apparently Ohio could take up to 11 days to count.

23 It may not technically be over and all yet, but here's another one for you.

24 LMAO, if you'd read through other threads, you'll see where I mentioned that very thing...that it could take up to 11 days...so quick to judge! Hmmmm, methinks if Kerry was ahead, they woulda declared it a win....can't these Democraps take their licks and go away?

25 My apologies... I usually don't read every thread.

26 S'ok, I don't stick to one thread, I jump around here a lot.

27 Lets not forget there's overseas military ballots: not a big Kerry constituency.

28 Look, if my fancy degrees in political science have taught me anything its this: the race is over. Bush won. Period. Hoooooooooooooorraaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

29 Yep, Kerry put his tail bet. his legs and called Bush. Maybe all the shit about Kerry and Viet Nam can be pursued now that the election's over. The fucker should be doing jail time for sure. Traitor.

30 Rusty, is there a way to have a live chatroom going on your blog? Or do you not have the capability?

31 4 more years.....Im so happy I could cry *does the snoopy dance* My question is...are all the whiners that said they'd leave the country if Bush won REALLY gonna leave so we dont have to listen to it anymore? To be fair....Kerry's concession speech wasnt too bad

32 Shaking head. I don't know but I just got through reading some of the messages posted on the Yahoo boards. People are saying they're packing up and moving to Canada, blah, blah, blah...4 more years of hell, Americans are stupid, yada, yada, yada. All talk, no action. I wish they'd leave too. As a matter of fact, I hear there are a few job openings in Iraq.

33 I"m amazed with these unhappy Bush/America haters. Claim they're the only intelligent people on the planet. No one knows anything but them. They always lose but they're the intelligent ones. Bitch, bitch, cry, cry. Just like I said they would do. Just like Kerry, no substance, just find fault, he did this wrong, she did this wrong. The tax is wrong. The military is wrong. Potato chips are wrong. Kerry lost because all he and his cronies could do is find fault. No stand, no ideas, no nothing, just bitch, piss and moan. Nothing to offer. These charactors must be the unhappiest people in the world. Bitch, complain, cry. Everyone is wrong but them. The majority of Americans are wrong. Only the cry babies are right. Matt, James you are just what you offer. NOTHING.

34 Changing the subject for a sec, is that REALLY Bush's middle finger in the pic holding his dog? Or is this a joke? Out of all the pics I've ever seen that are superimposed, this one looks like the real McCoy. I love it! Now, for all the bleeding heart lib's on the blog, give yourselves a nice break from the blog, your rantings about the injustice of it all are frankly very tiring now. We have won, please go back to your desks and sit down and be good boys. From here on in, all I want is for Bush to kick ass in Iraq and keep bombing the shit out of Falluja, Hallaluya or whatever the hell it's called. The more, the merrier. And the sooner our boyz can come home. The beheadings will NOT stop...we need to forge ahead, invade Al Jazeera....for surely, they are a key source to accessing the videos of these atrocities. Invade those fuckers, kidnap them, make 'em talk or else...CHOP!

35 Laura, you are noting but a fascist. You think killing people is great. Yes, you were attacked but this mass destruction that you gleefully talk about is frightening. It sounds like something I've heard before. Luckily, I won't be coming back here again so get your "good, fuck you"'s in while you can. USA uber alles? sounds very familliar.

36 When you call me an America hater, now you've made me mad. See, this is precisely what I mean when I say this campaign was not about issues. When I present issues and facts, people respond by labelling me a "liberal" or an "America-hater" or whatnot. I can't speak for anyone else who's posted comments here, but the only reason I go through the trouble is because I love this country. You think I'm getting paid to post these comments, or think about these issues? I'd like you to point out one thing that I said that indicates I'm an America hater -- or even a "liberal" for that matter. I love it. When the mainstream media reports something, regardless of whether it's true, if it reflects badly on Bush suddenly it's the fault of the "liberal media." I've never called myself a "liberal" and don't consider myself one. I don't really care for labels. What I do care for is facts, and trying to figure out what's best for America. As far as I can tell, you guys care more about shaking your pom-poms and doing your little dance for George Bush than you do about spending the time to figure out what's really going on in the world. And if America falls from its position in the world (its image is already suffering), then you guys have no one to blame but yourself. When America falls, you can take away that great consolation that George W. Bush won the presidency in 2004 with your help. Big f**king deal. Let me look at a few of the other comments. I tried to make my own comments as thoughtful and fact-oriented as possible. "F88k You bin Laden, F88k you Zarqawi- better run boyz. F88k you Iran, F88k you North Korean- better give up those nukes now before you hurt yourselves, F88k you France, oh one more time- F88k you France and your puppy Germany- multipolor this baby, F88k you Kofi- no body gives a s88t what you think. ahhhhhh, much better. Thanks Rusty." You're kidding me, right? This isn't what America is all about. First of all, Bush has not focused on bin Laden. "I'm not that concerned about him," he said a few months after 9/11. Clearly not. He's still at-large, even though Bush's PR team pulled off enough magic to get Bush the win anyway -- largely thanks to the people who were willing to swallow whatever they were fed. As for Zarqawi, the Bush administration had a chance to bomb his camp before the war and decided not to, because it would have undermined a (supposed) rationale for war. Great. He wasn't in Saddam's part of Iraq, by the way. Before the war, Zarqawi was based in the Kurdish part, friendly to the US. Also, he wasn't aligned with al-Qaeda nor focusing on the US until AFTER we invaded Iraq. If you love creating enemies unnecessarily, you definitely voted for the right man. And if you want to render the UN useless, don't come crying to me when the world turns back into the chaotic all-for-one-and-one-for-all environment it was until a few decades ago. European nations used to invade each other just 'cause they could. Are you repeating angry, simplistic diatribe you heard from somewhere, or is your point actually based in sound logic and reasoning? If it is, could you perhaps expand beyond the F88k's and s88t's, because it's kind of hard to respond to those. As for going around the world f88king up people because we can, that's a recipe for self-destruction, and has nothing to do with the founding principles of this nation. "Funny how when America proves we've been right all along, the lib's and anti-war folks can't just bow out gracefully...they remain on here, gluttons for punishment." I never said I was anti-war, and I never said I was lib. Speaking for myself, I tried to present ideas. All you can do is throw out labels. That's pathetic. And even if someone is "lib" or whatever else, that means you don't need to bother thinking about their points? How easy your life must be. As Thomas Jefferson said, "Ignorance is the softest pillow on which a man can rest his head." "I knew the comments would start flowing in, such as 'wait till such and such happens', 'intelligent people were duped into believing Bush's promises', 'the chance for world peace is gone"...blah, blah, blah....' " I wasn't talking about "the chance for world peace" or "Bush's promises." Did you even read what I wrote? I was talking about Bush's policy failures, a subject you all seem allergic to discussing. "Just go cry in your 'pints' and start your own blog...This one is for the WINNERS." I don't give a f**k about George W. Bush, or about John Kerry for that matter. I'm talking about America. And about issues. Why can't anyone respond intelligently? "I'm amazed with these unhappy Bush/America haters. Claim they're the only intelligent people on the planet." Where did you get that I hate America? If you can point out the part of my comments where I demonstrate that I hate America, that would be helpful. Funny, I don't remember saying "we" (whoever that is) are the only intelligent people on the planet. If anything, I seem to have overestimated my audience, since apparently no one is capable of responding to any of my points. "They always lose but they're the intelligent ones. Bitch, bitch, cry, cry. Just like I said they would do." Who exactly is "they"? I never claimed to speak for anyone but myself, and I don't look to anyone else for my beliefs. If something makes sense, I embrace it. "Just like Kerry, no substance, just find fault, he did this wrong, she did this wrong. The tax is wrong. The military is wrong. Potato chips are wrong." I was responding to a topic called "Bush Wins," so obviously Bush came into the equation. You want solutions? OK, I'll go over a few quickly, just like Kerry did. (I don't think you were listening when he went over solutions.) Taxes? How about not cutting taxes on the wealthy while we're sending troops to war? How about coming up with reasonable fiscal plan that doesn't endanger economic stability. Tax cuts are nice, but we cannot spend an unlimited amount of money and simply keep cutting taxes. As Alan Greenspan said in reference to this exact topic, "The free lunch has yet to invented." Kerry's own plan involved controlled spending, rolling back Bush's unaffordable tax cuts on the wealthiest Americans, and even a modest tax cut on the middle class. If you think Bush is a fiscal conservative, think again. As Rush Limbaugh said, Bush has "outspent Clinton" -- and by a lot. The military is wrong? Did I say the military is wrong? No, the American military is the greatest in the world. It's our leadership that isn't doing it justice. The suicide rate in Iraq is higher than it was during the Vietnam war. Morale is terrible, and it's BEEN terrible for a long time. The war plan was completely inadequate. They sent people over there without planning for a long occupation, even though a long occupation is precisely what many outside analysts had anticipated. They didn't give them the proper body armor, either personal body armor or armor for their vehicles. If they were going to go in, they needed far more troops. All the looting, the prisoner abuse scandal, the terrible security -- almost all of that was preventable. But of course, the timing and variety of war was absolutely wrong from the beginning. The UN inspections were working great; and if we went in, we should have done so patiently and with the proper alliances. Behind the scenes, even France said it would participate under certain conditions; we just didn't have any patience. The war has completely counteracted any possible benefits from any campaign against terrorism. It was a complete and total mistake. Even if the Iraqis get a democracy, there's a right way and a wrong way to go about things. This was the wrong way, and we are paying a huge price for our leadership's incompetence. As for reducing terrorism, this campaign cannot be a military-focused campaign. Al-Qaeda is ALL OVER THE WORLD. As of 9/11, it was present in 45 nations. Iraq was not one of them, but today it's one of the hubs and prime recruiting areas. Bush ridicules using law enforcement to go after terrorists. Guess what? Law enforcement is what has done the most damage against al-Qaeda, weeding out members and disrupting financial networks. If you want to bomb 50 countries, you may get a lot of great fireworks, but you sure as h**l won't solve the terrorism problem. That's exactly what we're seeing now. Bush isn't solving s**t. But he invades a country and bombs away, and then his campaign team applies the spin, and then guys like some of you eagerly eat it all up. We need to shore up our homeland security. We haven't done nearly as much as some experts have recommended; instead we're spending $5 billion a month in Iraq. We also need to spend more money on diplomacy. The State Department says it doesn't have enough money to counteract the "shocking levels" of anger the war has created in the Middle East. Those angry kids and teens are tomorrow's terrorists, and we barely seem to care. Just bomb the f88k out of everyone, as the earlier poster seems to want to do. That's fantastic. Another thing we really need to do is to start pouring BILLIONS of dollars -- yes, billions, just like we're now spending in Iraq -- into developing fuel cell technology and other alternative fuel technology, so that we can reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Economy-wise, we need to provide more intelligent stimulus. Simplistic tax cuts for the rich are passe. There are far more intelligent and effective ways to stimulate the economy -- providing specific incentives to foster growth, rather than just putting more money into some billionarie's pocket. I'm NOT making a Robin Hood argument, so don't even try it. I'm making a common-sense argument. If you want me to talk about ideas, I can give you ideas all day. Right now I'm more concerned about the fact that our own commander-in-chief seems to have so few good ideas. "Kerry lost because all he and his cronies could do is find fault." Actually, he lost because all people like you could do was find fault in him. You never gave him a chance. "No stand, no ideas, no nothing, just bitch, piss and moan. Nothing to offer. These charactors must be the unhappiest people in the world. Bitch, complain, cry. Everyone is wrong but them. The majority of Americans are wrong. Only the cry babies are right." "These characters"? Who are you talking about? I speak only for myself. And yes, when our democracy is moving in the wrong direction, I bitch and complain, because THAT'S WHAT DEMOCRACY IS ABOUT. Our nation was founded on the idea of holding our government accountable. I'm not going to act as though I'm living in a dictatorship, because as far as I'm concerned, I'm not. If you want to pretend this is a totalitarian government, and you have to fall in line with whatever the government says, that's your prerogative. Doesn't anyone have an opinion about actual issues? I find it very scary that all people seem to know how to do is throw out labels like "liberal" and "traitor." You're kidding me, right? Please tell me our country is really not as bad off as you're making me think it is. Tell me you've actually thought about an issue at least once.

37 Wait -- one more thing. "From here on in, all I want is for Bush to kick ass in Iraq and keep bombing the shit out of Falluja, Hallaluya or whatever the hell it's called. The more, the merrier. And the sooner our boyz can come home. The beheadings will NOT stop..." Frankly, this post just about says it all. Kick ass and keep bombing the shit out of whoever they're called. You're right about one thing. As long as Bush is president, you can certainly expect more beheadings. "we need to forge ahead, invade Al Jazeera....for surely, they are a key source to accessing the videos of these atrocities. Invade those fuckers, kidnap them, make 'em talk or else...CHOP!" Like our president himself, you seem to have a firm grip of what American values are all about.

38 US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION RESULT. Shame. In my view the Bush Administration has been the most incompetent, arrogant, duplicitous, cynical, wrong-headed administration that this country has seen. It hobbled our economy; has turned our environment into a cash cow for its buddies; seems willing to drain the world's oil reserves; and has alienated some of our allies. It has failed to understand that "liberty" and "democracy" may have very different meanings to those societies which have been seperated from the West for centuries, and who have lived under tyrannies supported by us for generations. Despite the separation of Church and State in our Constitution, the Administration is trying to impose a morality based on a religious outlook not shared by all of us. It has tarnished our national soul, and our global role as the model of a moral society, by adopting a policy of pre-emptive war against villainous but unthreatening regime, while at the same time failing to vigorously pursue our true enemies. The insistence on "staying the course", when that course has repeatedly been shown to have failed, is not laudable determination but pig-headedness.

39 We now know exactly what proportion of Americans choose an ultra - rightwing, big - business theocracy as its leadership; what proportion believe in barring scientific progress, stagnating and reversing the process of securing human rights for its citizens; what proportion think America should invade sovereign countries at will, sabotage global institutions, and trample all over the rest of us.

40 Is there a support group for sufferers from Bush victory depression syndrome?

42 Perhaps there is a god after all, and he is a jealous, capricious and vengeful as he is depicted in the scriptures.

43 Fuck Bush... Osama Should screw your butt with Bigley Bones... and you will satisfied that how evil you are, the others will threat you more evilness than you ever have. if i have a chance, i will totally screw your mother ass with a large pipe to make sure that you never born. fuck you and your mother and your father too... cut over your cock, and you will live in peace. otherwise, next week i'll come over america and i'll kill you with my plastic spoon. it will make you more and more suffered compared to Bigley...

1 Rusty, as always, Thank you! Not to seem ungrateful, but "office move?" Dude, what about my unrivaled skills as a photojournalist? What about my insights into the very soul of the city? -Biting the hand that feeds me, Gordon

2 Rusty, I'm flattered by the attention, but the pinup cartoon used on my site is bound to be sexy--she's a pinup. There are two actual photos of me online, but I'll leave it to you to figure out how to find them. And what about my hot little BRAIN?

3 Gordo, sorry dude. "Gordo is a genius". Atitila Girl, it's your brains I'm after...I swear baby.

4 Glad someone else agrees about Sabato being a hack. He is a total media "ho". I lived in Charlottesville, VA for 15 years (left 2 years ago) and Sabato was on the local news constantly - didn't seem to matter if it was an election year or not. It got so bad in the 2000 election that I would switch channels the second that I heard his name.

5 Thanks, Rusty! BTW, how did you get the link you put here? I noticed it had that awful PHPSESSION crap at the end of it, which it isn't supposed to have. Needless to say, I'm still debugging...

1 Now, that fine comment is only halfway true. The true method of influence for al-CIAda is obviously the cicada (you see! only one letter difference!). Note how cicadas spread throughout the country last summer (as they did in previous election years, at one point or another!), infesting traditionally liberal areas in an attempt to steal the election from John Kerry. For if only people were smart and paid attention, they would recognize him as the Holy Savior. Blessed be, Senator! Blessed be!

2 I'm still worried about Al Cicada. They were supposed to swarm us back in the spring and only a few showed up. They must still be lurking out there waiting to pounce.

3 Are you sure he didn't mean Al CYAda? Or is that only if CBS runs the story?

4 thank god that Kerry questioned Bush's handling of terrorism. If he had taken the "real line" that the terrorism is largeley a neocon cocotion to scare to submnission to the leader, whoever he is in the moment of crisis, Al CIAcada would have been killing a few Americans during this weekend. The camp is in tatters. Another tErrorist attack will just merely show that Bush has failed, and hence we will live away without it; happily. Victor Ostrovsky's books - search "Victor Ostrovsky" - is still the single biggest eye opener. "Operation Northwoods" the second. Have a nice terror free day! S.

7 O...K...... So, Rusty, See you on Monday.

1 This is absolutely consistent with the logic of a man who expects us to believe him sane when he tells us "I actually voted FOR the 87 billion dollars... BEFORE I voted AGAINST it." It is consistent with the philosophy of the Anti-American Left (which styles itself "Anti-Imperialist/Anti-Capitalist" but it's just plain hostile to the entirety of the American experiment. Of course: America is busy raping the world, particularly third-world non-Christian Non-White Islamic countries. We've already been telling you that for decades. Iraq is all those things, so anything it does in its own defense is justifiable, and AMERICA IS RESPONSIBLE. Q.E.D. The alleged missing explosives were AMERICA's responsibility from the moment they were manufactured. I hope the idiots have a chance of enlightenment before some Islamic Fundamentalist who doesn't after all give a shit about their insane pretzel logic, comes along and saws their heads off. "But wait! I embrace your right to your fanatical interpretation of the Prophet! I've ALWAYS voted Democratic! I am a TRANSNATIONAL PROGRESSIVE! See? I Still have my ticket stub from Fahrenheit 9-11!" "So What?" sneers the terrorist."Allahu Akhbar! Quit struggling while I saw..."

1 Blazing Saddles will be in my mind all night now.

5 Rusty, I am writing this here because I didn't want to email you directly so that you would read this message and not delete it. I DID NOT send that email to you. I haven't written anything to you or on this website for over a week. Been to busy working..lol I am glad that you did not open it, since someone has a way of sending emails from my email on AOL.... grrrrr I will have to look into this... Freaking lil email pirates. If you have any suggestions let me know. Andrea

1 Don't get me started about the absence of political skills demonstrated by this supposedly "politically savvy" administration. We're still waiting for him to respond appropriately to the Kerry allegations about al Qaqaa and the Kerry exaggerations regarding his secret UN meetings. As usual he leaves it entirely to his supporters to respond and come to his practical defense. Which is just fine I guess, if he wins. But I'm gonna be very very pissed if he loses... because this has been a pattern for four long years, and I'd like to see him pick up the cudgel in his own defense a little more often. Not to mention that he hasn't done diddly to defend US actions in the Arab media world... again leaving the job of winning hearts and minds to volunteers. And again, I'll forgive him if we win... because that really takes precedence. But if we don't, and things start going south in terms of popular opposition from Iraqis in a broad swath of the country (and not just the Baghdad region), then again I'm gonna be really really pissed. Sorry, but I'm not at all impressed by Rove and Company. To me, they seem pretty amateurish. Sorry, I just had to get that off my chest. Carry on.

2 PS: I'd post something about the game, but that was the worst job of base running I've ever seen in my live, and I'm just too disgusted to say anything more. Good insight about the death penalty issue, though.

3 Being from the Boston area I remember very well the Kerry v. Weld debates for the US Senate. The most famous exchange, one that many say turned the election Kerry's way had to do with the death penalty. Weld basically asked Kerry how he could be so out of line with the rest of the country and not support the death penalty? Kerry response was something along the lines, "I know something about killing. I don't like killing" It was a great rhetorical flourish and the uber-liberals in Cambridge ate it up. The quote doesnÂ’t do it justice you need to see video of the exchange to get a feel for what happened. They then used it as a hammer to remind people Weld sat out Vietnam with a bad back. I agree more should have been made of this issue, but then again when I look at what happened to Weld (who I am a huge fan of) I understand Rove's reluctance to put the issue in play.

4 To all my conservatives out there I fill very sorry for you. However, I am not conservative, but despite being liberal I do support the death penalty. And I ask you in the case of Karl Rove, should one who in a time of war (War on Terror, (which is not winnable, sorry conservatives), should one in a time of war, a person of influence in the highest levels of our government, who willingly betrayed and leaked the identity of a CIA operative, not receive the death penalty? I ask you? In a conservative system treason I believe is defined by "A betrayal of trust or confidence." Is this not the case? But if it is treason, a betrayal of the state, does it therefore deserve the death penalty? I'm curious to see how conservatives respond. Steve

1 I thought that you'd be surprised. I actually get emailed via GoogleNewsAlert everytime "oil for food" pops up in a news story and I was surprised to see The Jawa Report in my latest email. Hey, if Atrois can be listed there why can't you?

9 There goes google news as a source of reliable information

1 Thank God! I thought you were offended by my disdainful treatment of your post.

2 No dude, I was under the impression that you were supposed to send your worst post in for the bonfire--hence, my post really did suck ass!!

3 Oh, well you certainly succeeded then... Thanks for the link and the compliment.

1 What a scumbag. Sullivan never once mentions that the real reason (as he himself has previously stated) is Bush's stance on same-sex marriage. And he thinks his readers are to stupid to recognize his smoke-and-mirrors act, or remember what he wrote earlier this year. Sheesh! Stupid Limey!

2 Ahem. Exercising my right to revise and extend my remarks, that should be "...too stupid..."

3 Sullivan is just priceless. He betrays virtually all of his so-called "principles" for the sake of a romantic ideal, and then skedaddles to an "undisclosed location." I'm betting it's somewhere on the Eastern Shore, where he can wander the tidal pools and eat crab cakes.

4 That was the first time I've visted A****w's site for 4 months and it only reminded me why.

1 Me: Dude, what's up? Rusty: Not much. I almost got in a fight right now. Me: With who? Rusty: The people at the LaRouche table. Me: Why? Rusty: Because I told them they were Nazis. Me: Sweet. Dauterive: Super Sweet. Rusty: Seriously.

2 Why, I can remember back when Lyndon LaRouche ran a Communist organization called the NCLC (National Caucus of Labor Committees). Ah nostalgia! BTW, there's more Neiwert stuff here and here. Thanks for the link!

3 How apt that you should be advocating violence towards people who disagree with you.

1 Spasibo, Comrade Rusty!

2 When I moved to munu, my comments were no longer forwarded. ...I thought it was a munu thing. Regardless, I'm loving it.

1 Excsllent Rusty - and ain't that the truth. Cindy

1 Uh, no. The NYT got a quote SLIGHTLY wrong, but there was absolutely NO misrepresentation. Again, you guys are missing the forrest for the trees... on purpose. Here's the mistake: "No collaborative relationship." Here's the quote from the 9/11 Report: "But to date we have seen no evidence that these or the earlier contacts ever developed into a collaborative operational relationship." Honestly, what is the scandal here, the fact that a reporter got a quote slightly wrong, or going to war based on a lie!!! You guys are playing fast and loose with the truth while at the same time claiming as a primary strategy against Democrats and the Media that THEY are the unethical ones. Joseph Goebbels would be proud.

2 So, wait, they weren't making up quotes? Or becaue you believe that since the TRUTH is higher than the facts that it was ok to ascribe a quote that is not there? Collaborative OPERATIONAL relationship is different than a 'collaborative relationship' since the former suggests that Iraq helped plan specific terrorst acts while the latter suggest that while Iraq had a relationship with al Qaeda that the relationship had not developed to this point.

3 Didn't know what this was all about until the wife told me that the NY times has come out for Bush. Now I understand.

1 Does he have a blog yet? I can hear you in your proudest voice: "he was a link whore before he could walk."

2 the hip hop debate, from Froggyruminations http://www.miniclip.com/hiphopdebate.htm

3 The way I figure it, if you don't blog your a 'tard. So I better get him set up. Blogspot? Sure, it's like using training wheels on a bike.

4 Happy birthday to the little guy. That's great. Just please, please don't buy him any Team America dolls, OK?

5 man, I been screwing off with this blog crap too much. I am still struggling with a needed website for my livelihood. but, that was some funny shit...and for now I can live with being a tard.

6 Hey, thanks for the plug on the old site. My traffic's been in the tank lately, mostly because training keeps me from blogging as prolifically as I used to.

7 Yep, October's a good month for sons. My firstborn entered the world Oct. 6th. Happy Birthday to you..
