I went to Ethiopia in the Summer of 1985 during the height of the famine. When we were in Addis Abada, there were also warehouses of rotting UN grain because the military would not distribute it to the starving people.

I heard one soldier say that the presidential shower was the high point of the action for him - he hadn't showered in twenty days! When Hillary Clinton heard of the soldier's plight, she said " 20 days, heck, I haven't showered since February!"

Great - thanks for the laugh.
Here's from bent and fat's teacher Saul Alinsky:
Ridicule is mans most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also, it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage.
Never let up on the pervs.

I just don't understand it, HLL. I've heard stories of the power in a country keeping food as a weapon against its own people.

Walking skeletons don't put up much of a fight.
They are so close to death that they are grateful for a crumb.

Clinton looks like he's on steroids in those pics - his face is so puffy. His herpes must be acting up again. (hehehe)

Who knew the anti-U.S. crowd was so darned artsy craftsy:
Quilt for Peace
Saturday, May 31st 2003
Washington, DC
The Emergency Anti-War Quilting Bee will culminate in a large scale-performance/protest/quilting bee on the National Mall Saturday, May 31st. Quilting, a traditional American art form, has provided women with a means of expression and exchange of ideas for over 200 years. [Not to mention its value in providing bed coverings] Drawing upon this history, DOL will give women and men an opportunity to voice their peaceful and patriotic anti-war sentiment and transcend differences in age, religion, social and economic backgrounds. Unlike the Vietnam-era peace movement, the peace movement today is comprised of students, grandparents, and everyone in between. DOL embraces the Emergency Anti-War Quilting Bee as an especially appropriate and timely vehicle of expression because of its cross-generational appeal.
In weekly quilting sessions, members of the collective will provide sewing demonstrations and individuals will be invited to create 2 ft. x 2 ft. finished squares with an unlimited amount of artistic freedom. Participants do not need to have previous sewing experience or an arts background, just a pro-peace philosophy and a willingness to be part of the quilting bee.
A Protest Unlike Any Other - Because of the communal nature of creating quilts we are staging an atypical demonstration/performance. There will be no chanting, no bull horns, no posters, just women and men assembled on the National Mall sewing together the final sections of the quilts, which will enable us to focus quietly on a single message: peace.
Following the demonstration the quilt will then be given to Iraqi refugees as gesture of solidarity against war. The quilt will not remain a symbolic piece of art, but instead become a contribution to the individuals most affected by this violent conflict. source

They've usurped my favorite leisure time activity! :( Darn peace war people. I'm going to keep a close eye on this one. Can't wait to see the finished project, or how many quilts they produce.

...members of the collective ...
Good grief M, what are these lamebrains thinking at this stage of the game?
I just do NOT get it.

I'm also trying to figure out if they are going to put together one big quilt (oh, that will be real useful), or smaller quilts (but the 2'x 2' size is way too small.) As usual, the peace organization is idealistic but not too practical.

I missed that statement members of the collective. Yikes.
To: Hillary's Lovely Legs
Pictures like that make me cry. Most of the Iraqi people are sooo grateful they are being liberated.

Whaddayasay to the biggest Freep in history? Let's all get on over to Alec's house in Easthampton for Mem Day. The traffic jam alone will make him one of the most hated people in the Hamptons (Martha Stewart will be so disheartened to give up that title).

Neil Bush is a jerk. I have no problem with his current wife taking him for all he's worth. There's a black sheep in every family and Neil takes the cake.
To: Utah Girl
First the AIDS quilts, now this. How about just making a quilt to cover the bed, and not for a political statement?
To: Endeavor
You'll get no argument from me on that. I am remarkably intolerant of men who cheat on their wives. As my husband has said, if he were foolish enough to engage in such activity, rest assured the last words he ever heard would be mine, saying, "How do I reload this thing?"

The poster girl for why the government should pay for cosmetic surgery and in this case, a shit-load of it.
Hillary is her own reason for government health care.
"Oh God, Please let Bill just shut up."
"If I don't move my hand, they won't know I've stabbed myself in the face with this pen."
"I don't care if I lose a presidential run in 2004. Anything is better than these Senate speeches."
