On the Fourth of July, I was glad to see that George and Martha were in the media spotlight together. No, not the Washingtons, the first First Couple, but George W. Bush and Martha Stewart, a symbolic First Couple of insider capitalism.

To add insult to injury, I can remember several years ago, when investment in Russia, China, and assorted third world countries was discouraged for the reason that you could not rely on their financial records.

Or, to be less delicate, when was Bush not telling the truth?

I don't remember this Corn(holer) asking when did Clinton lie.

"because of his inherited social and political connections."

There we go! That's the real reason for the bitter article. Class envy. The writer is simply jealous, and bitter that he wasn't born a Kennedy or a Rockefeller.

When I picture David Corn in my mind, I see a spoiled, bored adolescent with his shirt pulled over his head running around yelling: "I am the Great CORNHOLIO! Heh Heh Heheheheh Heh." Corn is a waste of cells.

While we detested what Clinton did to our country, the pure personal hatred for President Bush just oozes from every pore of these left-wing fascists at a level we never came close to holding for X42, doesn't it?

Speak for yourself. My personal distaste for X42 and his crusty wife is pretty high. Be honest. Most of around here despise the Clintoons and many of us have shown it.

Article is trash.

Click the link to the original artical, and note the Audi advertisement on the sidebar.

I've sent them an email asking for an explaination of theor support of this trash.

The way to affect change is to start holding the people paying for this reponsible - those paying for it are the advertisers. I'm sure Audi just bought some space package - but if I were them I wouldn't want my name associated this trashy political misinformation.

Click through to Audi and let them know we are out here.

So Martha esentially got the equalivent of a speeding ticket in the world of business and "W" got sold some stock that doubled a year after he sold it. Sounds like really serious crimes to a dimorat.

I would like to talk about Bill & Hill klintoon, for a quick comparison. Bill and his first witch (Hill had to have him to get to the top seat and give him a bunch of bimbo's while she ran the country) got how many million from the Riady's, Loral and a who know's who, from where? This republican that wrote this post sees some REAL problems there......but then again, forgot that it's okay for dimorats to cheat lie, steal, murder, etc.,etc.

Would this be the same David Corn who is editor and part owner of The Nation magazine? The book publishing division of which will be publishing BOTH French books detailing 9/11 attacks as:

Book 1. A total hoax.

Book 2. Committed by George Bush and the Republicans for oil.

You might draw Audi's attention to my #13.

David Corn should never be allowed to appear in a mainstream newspaper or talk show without a HUGE negative reaction against sponsors.
