Joe Bageant Free People Do Bad ThingsA while back there was a wrestling promotion campaign in which young children were encouraged to attend local wrestling bringing weapons of their own creation. The weapons would later be used in the ring. One small boy returned with a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire. Asked about the wisdom of encouraging the child to create such brutal weapons, the kid's father appeared dumbfounded: "This is just entertainment! It's fun!"Read The Whole Story, and Your Comments on The BlogAP Rumsfeld Laments Global Reach of War NewsExcerpt: Rumsfeld didn't delve deeply into specifics in his brief talk with members of the civic group. But in the recent past, news outlets have broadcast messages from terrorist groups, or reported stories that have fueled rage against Americans in the Muslim world.H.L.s Take:Of course no one mentions that the stories are true. So they don't care about, torture and abuse, they just need to find ways from keeping it out of the news, seems like they are doing a pretty good job. Heres an audio clip of Bush Talking about how he uses the Goebbels of repeating a lie often enough to make people believe it. What Really Happened Democrats Hope to Delay Vote on BoltonH.L.s Take: The Nazi's would be proud Boy George.AP Democrats Hope to Delay Vote on BoltonExcerpt: "John Bolton did not tell the truth to the Foreign Relations Committee," on several points, Boxer alleged. "If nothing else I've said matters ... you ought to care about telling the truth to a committee of the United States Senate," Boxer told other senators. "We have it chapter and verse. We have it cold here."H.L.s Take: Lets see which "Democrats" vote for Bolton, when he is confirmed. We will have a list of the traitors here as soon as it happens. AP Dems, Jackson to Pay $200,000 in FinesExcerpt: WASHINGTON - The Democratic Party, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and two groups associated with the civil rights activist have agreed to pay a total of $200,000 in civil fines for campaign finance violations in the 2000 elections.H.L.s Take:The Republicans steal the election, and the Democrats have to pay a 200G fine for Campaign Violations. The Democrats are the biggest bunch of wimp, loser, suck monkeys in American History. AP Voters Group: Fla. Audit Shows ProblemsExcerpt: MIAMI - A voters' rights group said Wednesday its audit of November's presidential election ballots in Miami-Dade County showed counting problems and an unintentional but worrisome instance of a number of votes being counted three times.H.L.s Take:Gee, I wonder which monkey got votes counted 3 times. The bastard stole the election twice, while Democrats in congress sat back and counted their money. Now Bush's approval rating is at 40%, and the country is going down the tubes. They are all laughing at us. AP Murder Charges Dropped Against MarineExcerpt: The decision to drop the charges was made by Maj. Gen. Richard Huck, commander of the 2nd Marine Division based at Camp Lejeune. The move ends the prosecution of Pantano, a former Wall Street trader who rejoined the Marines after the Sept. 11 attacks.H.L.s Take:Nice that one General gets to decide who gets charged with murder. I bet he charges a lot of soliders with murder, when they shoot them until they stop moving, (i.e. 60 times.) Also what about this guy Pantano, he was a Wall street trader, who quit to go to Iraq, sounds to me like the guy was hot to kill some Haji's for fun. Working for Change Molly Ivins: Irony OverflowingExcerpt: Liberals for the filibuster; conservatives against it -- hilarious. Pentagon loses track of more than $1 trillion, and the Army can't find 56 airplanes, 32 tanks and 36 Javelin missile command launch-units. Not to mention Osama bin Laden. And more:H.L.s Take:Theres lots of Irony when 49% of Amercians are too dumb to know what Irony means. Raw Story Rep. who filed successful ethics complaint against DeLay says 'web is getting bigger'Excerpt: The former Democratic congressman who filed a successful ethics complaint against House Majority Tom DeLay (R-TX) last year told RAW STORY the ruling against a DeLay political action committee is a sign that DeLays case for innocence is hemorrhaging Today, a judge ruled that the treasurer of DeLays political action committee must return $200,000 in illegally collected corporate campaign contributions.H.L.s Take:Looks like old Tom is going to be the fall guy for everything. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. See a Giant list of Political comics at H.Ls. Comic Features Heres a list of the house members who voted not to withdraw the troops from Iraq, despite the fact that they know the whole thing is a lie, and a quagmire.
