Excerpt:The NYT is reporting that Joe Biden will bring his bleached teeth and hair transplants to Connecticut to campaign for Holy Joe (and that’s the last I want to hear about “outside interference” from Camp Lieberman). He’ll be joined by fellow Alito-lover Ken
Salazar, and sadly, Barbara Boxer
H.L.s Take:
Well I expect as much from Joe “Let me screw my own people over with this bankruptcy bill” Biden, But Barbara Boxer…. C’mon Barb, your from California, you should know better then to campaing for Bush Lite.

Excerpt WEST HARTFORD, Conn. – U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman sought to distance himself from the Bush administration during a televised debate with his upstart Democratic primary challenger Thursday, telling him: “I’m not George Bush.”
H.L.s Take:
Yes you are Joe, YES YOU ARE!!!, You are Bush’s Bitch, and you know it, we know it. Everyone knows it. Hey Joe remember this picture???
SF Gate
It is like some sort of virus. It is like some sort of weird and painful rash on your face that makes you embarrassed to walk out the door and so you sit there day after day, waiting for it to go away, slathering on ointment and Bactine and scotch. And yet still it lingers.

ExcerptOne soldier now serving in Iraq asked how many times he would have to return to the war zone in the next five years. Bush said he did not have an answer.
“The conditions on the ground will determine our troop levels, and one of the main conditions on the ground is the capacity for the Iraqis to take the fight to the enemy, and therefore it is very difficult for me to predict with certainty how many times this particular person would be sent back to Iraq,†Bush said.
H.L.s Take
In other words Grunt. Shut the F**k up and do as you are told. I will keep sending your ass back to Iraq, as long as there is money for me and the crime family to make. Which means forever.

Excerpt:
In the winter of 1933, before Franklin Roosevelt’s first inauguration on March 4, there was a clamor in the United States for a military dictatorship. The banks were closing, a quarter of Americans were unemployed, rebellion threatened on the farms.
Only drastic reforms, mandated by the president’s power as commander in chief, would save the country. Something like the fascism of Mussolini’s Italy, viewed benignly by many Americans in those days because it worked, or so everyone said, would save the country from communist revolution.

Excerpt: A ‘Buck a Vote’ for Hand Count of Paper Ballots, Trails in U.S. House Election Which Used Uncertified Voting Machines…
Fees Far Exceed Those Charged by Other Counties, Request Filed by Election Integrity Advocate ‘on Behalf of Candidate Brian Bilbray’
Late Wednesday afternoon, a “Manual Hand Count Request under the Election Recount Provision” was filed at the San Diego County Registrar of Voters office by by CA-50 voter Barbara Gail Jacobson. The request is for a full manual hand count of all paper ballots and paper trails in the recent June 6th Busby/Bilbray special U.S. House election in which programmed, election-ready Diebold voting machines were sent home with poll workers for days prior to the election in apparent violation of new laws and provisions by both state and federal authorities.
