Who should the US invade next
LINKY It
is THESE people who voted for Bush. No wonder he is still in

dunno.Anyone still reading? Comment if
you are. Make my mind up if I should keep doing this.

What would Jesus do?
STORY
LINK
The
Reverend elected to take over as president of the Christian Coalition of America
said he will not assume the role because of differences in
philosophy.The
Rev. Joel Hunter, of Longwood's Northland, A Church Distributed, said Wednesday
that the national group would not let him expand the organization's agenda
beyond opposing abortion and gay
marriage."These
are issues that Jesus would want us to care about," Hunter
said."They
pretty much said, 'These issues are fine, but they're not our issues, that's not
our base,'" Hunter said.NOT OUR
BASE...they said. How can someone claim to be Christian, yet not adhere to the
teachings and philosophy of Jesus Christ? I am not the most religious person in
the world, but I do believe in what Jesus preached...be kind to your fellow man,
help the needy. But more and more I am seeing that that is not what is on the
mind of most of the Christian Right. They seem to be more concerned with the
political hot topics like Abortion and Gay Rights. People in my town, starving?
So what? There are two guys in San Francisco who want to get married...HOW DARE
THEY! The very visible Christian Right are more concerned with political clout
and raising money for themselves than in helping your fellow man. I see more
and more rich people who claim to be Christian, claim to believe in what Jesus
preached, yet feel that people need to "pull themselves up by their own
bootstraps." (Hmm....who said that?) Many don't have bootstraps to pull on,
and need help and compassion.Does this
country try to help the world? Or just want to dominate it? If the current
leadership is so religious and believes in God and Jesus, why don't they give
more aid to countries in terms of food? Instead of paying our farmers NOT to
grow food, grow the food and ship it to countries without. Or send people to
help that country become self sustaining. Help ALL the countries out from under
the foot of tyranny and corruption, not just the countries with
oil.I am so fed up with the Christian
Right and neoCons who claim to be Christian when they don't seem to follow what
he preaches in the slightest. Please, point to one section of the Bible where
Jesus mentions homosexuality. Come on...there has to be one,
right?

Clinton fights back
LINK!
For years and years Republicans and
Republican news commentators have painted Clinton as a weak man who did nothing
about Bin Laden. Well, on FOX news they asked him why he didn't do more about
Osama...and they got an earful. While I might not be a complete Clinton-ite (I
think he was a politicians politician)...but he certainly has more brains than
half of the current White House
Staff.Well, that might not be entirely
true. He used his brains in a good way, to solve world issues, where the
current administration is focussing on making everything Democrats do seem
bad...and trying to get power power for themselves and less freedoms for the
common citizen.

W's view of the Constitution
This story comes thanks to my friend Russ and
Capitol Hill
Blue:US
Constitution, Article II, Section
1Before he enter on
the execution of his office, he shall take the following oath or affirmation:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office
of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve,
protect, and defend the Constitution of the United
States.”Those words were
spoken by the President of the United States in both 2000 and 2004...with his
hand on the bible (for those of you who follow Bush's religious convictions).
Yet, this year, in a meeting about the renewal of the Patriot Act Bush expressed
different feelings. He is quoted saying:
“I don’t give a goddamn,” Bush
retorted. “I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my
way.”
“Mr. President,” one aide in the
meeting said. “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law
undermine the Constitution.”
“Stop throwing the Constitution in my
face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of
paper!”
How people can stand up for this man, and call him a
great President is beyond me. How this man was able to hoodwink people into
voting for him A SECOND TIME boggles the mind. Lying about WMD's or passing on
misinformation supplied by the CIA that he no doubt pressed because he
wanted
this stupid
war...wanted it bad. Members of his staff under indictment for outing a CIA
employee after her husband spoke out against Bush...the ranking member of the
House under indictment for fraud...and he is responsible for the largest nation
debt in our nation's history. People stand by him, and I just don't f-wording
get it!
The article also quotes the Attorney General Alberto
Gonzales, while still White House counsel, as saying that the
“Constitution is an outdated document.”
I love my country. It's just the leaders that I don't
trust.

Best complaint letter ever!
This is a letter of complaint from a Scottish
customer of a local telecom company. Parental guidance is
suggested...language."Dear
Cretins,I have been an NTL customer
since 9th July 2001, when I signed up for your 3-in-one deal for cable TV, cable
modem, and telephone. During this three-month period I have encountered
inadequacy of service which I had not previously considered possible, as well as
ignorance and stupidity of monolithic proportions. Please allow me to provide
specific details, so that you can either pursue your professional prerogative,
and seek to rectify these difficulties - or more likely (I suspect) so that you
can have some entertaining reading material as you while away the working day
smoking B&H and drinking vendor-coffee on the bog in your
office:My initial installation was
cancelled without warning, resulting in my spending an entire Saturday sitting
on my fat arse waiting for your technician to arrive. When he did not arrive, I
spent a further 57 minutes listening to your infuriating hold music, and the
even more annoying Scottish robot woman telling me to look at your helpful
website....HOW?I alleviated the boredom
by playing with my testicles for a few minutes - an activity at which you are
no-doubt both familiar and highly adept. The rescheduled installation then took
place some two weeks later, although the technician did forget to bring a number
of vital tools - such as a drill-bit, and his cerebrum. Two weeks later, my
cable modem had still not arrived. After 15 telephone calls over 4 weeks my
modem arrived... six weeks after I had requested it, and begun to pay for
it.I estimate your internet server's
downtime is roughly 35%... hours between about 6pm -midnight, Mon-Fri, and most
of the weekend. I am still waiting for my telephone connection. I have made 9
calls on my mobile to your no-help line, and have been unhelpfully transferred
to a variety of disinterested individuals, who are it seems also highly skilled
bollock jugglers.I have been informed
that a telephone line is available (and
someonewill call me back); that no telephone
line is available (and someone will call me back); that I will be transferred to
someone who knows whether or not a telephone line is available (and then been
cut off); that I will be transferred to someone (and then been redirected to an
answer machine informing me that your office is closed); that I will be
transferred to someone and then been redirected to the irritating Scottish robot
woman...and several other variations on this
theme.Doubtless you are no longer
reading this letter, as you have at least a thousand other dissatisfied
customers to ignore, and also another one of those crucially important
testicle-moments to attend to. Frankly I don't care, it's far more satisfying as
a customer to voice my frustrations in print than to shout them at your unending
hold music. Forgive me, therefore, if I
continue.I thought BT were sh*t, that
they had attained the holy piss-pot of god-awful customer relations, that
no-one, anywhere, ever, could be more disinterested, less helpful or more
obstructive to delivering service to their customers. That's why I chose NTL,
and because, well, there isn't anyone else is there? How surprised I therefore
was, when I discovered to my considerable dissatisfaction and disappointment
what a useless shower of bastards you truly are. You are sputum-filled pieces of
distended rectum incompetents of the highest
order.British Telecom - w**kers though
they are - shine like brilliant beacons of success, in the filthy puss-filled
mire of your seemingly limitless inadequacy. Suffice to say that I have now
given up on my futile and foolhardy quest to receive any kind of service from
you. I suggest that you cease any potential future attempts to extort payment
from me for the services which you have so pointedly and catastrophically failed
to deliver - any such activity will be greeted initially with hilarity and
disbelief quickly be replaced by derision, and even perhaps bemused rage. I
enclose two small deposits, selected with great care from my cats litter tray,
as an expression of my utter and complete contempt for both you and your
pointless company. I sincerely hope that they have not become desiccated during
transit - they were satisfyingly moist at the time of posting, and I would feel
considerable disappointment if you did not experience both their rich aroma and
delicate texture. Consider them the very embodiment of my feelings towards NTL,
and its worthless employees.Have a nice
day - may it be the last in you miserable short life, you irritatingly
incompetent and infuriatingly unhelpful bunch of twats."

Apple against corporate greed
Good going Steve Jobs. THIS is why I own stock in Apple. Besides the
fact that I really like the look and feel of their computers, I really believe
that Apple is on the forefront of Research and Development of new technologies
(thus the high cost of their computers and monitors). And Now here is another
example...their leader refuses to raise the price of the iTunes music from
$0.99.Apple's co-founder and
CEO said record companies already earn more profit from songs sold through
iTunes - cutting out costs of manufacturing, marketing and returns - than from
those sold on CD. "So if they
want to raise the prices it just means they're getting a little greedy," he
said.Well said
sir.(I won't go into how even though he
only draws a $1.00 salary, he gets over $200 mil a year in bonuses and stock
options...)

25 Mind Numbing Stupid Quotes about Hurricane Katrina
LINK
1)
"I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees." –President
Bush, on "Good Morning America," Sept. 1, 2005, six days after repeated warnings
from experts about the scope of damage expected from Hurricane Katrina (Source)Now
Michael "Brownie" Brown is being removed from his role in the disaster. Being
sent to Washington so that he can...can...be out of the
way.And what does this man say to this?
"I'm going to go home and walk my dog and hug my
wife, and maybe get a good Mexican meal and a stiff margarita and a full night's
sleep."I'm sure all the refugees in the
Astrodome will sleep better tonight Brownie.

Excellence is punished
Again, when a person or groups of people excel at
what they do, they are punished for it. A school doing away with the honor roll
because it hurt he self esteem of the other students was pretty bad. I always
thought of it as a goal. I never attained that goal, but it didn't stop me from
trying.But now there is a team of little
leaguers that are "too good." All the other teams complained and refused to
play, so now they have been withdrawn from the league. WHAT EVER HAPPENED
TO BEING THE BEST? What about training and practicing more so that you could
try to beat them next time? What about the time the Bulls won 4 NBA titles in a
row? Or the Lakers the following 3? Were they kicked out because they were too
good and swept the competition? No.How
can we as parents prepare our kids for real life if we shield them from
instances where their feeling "may" be hurt, or the may feel bad for losing?
Many kids see that as a challenge to succeed...why rob them of that? What
happens then when they are adults and lose, or have their self esteem battered
because the project they worked on failed, or the report they wrote was
bad?Kids deserve a childhood. And a
childhood includes losing. Didn't YOU all turn out fine? I think that I
did...
