Barbara Streisand: "Wake Up America!"

I understand that for most of you reading this website...I am in many ways preaching to the choir. You know how I feel about this current administration, and many of you feel the same way. But can you believe that some polls now show that more people believe Bush/Rice/Cheney's take on their handling of intelligence pre-and post-9/11 than the many people inside the administration who have come out to tell us the facts about what really went on - including Richard Clarke and Paul O'Neil (see last week's statement about Clarke's take on Bush's handling of 9/11 for more of my thoughts on this).

I am now listening on tape to the book "House of Bush, House of Saud," which I highly recommend. Did you know that in 2001, from January-Labor Day, Bush spent 42% of his time on vacation! Is this what we want out of our president?

So here is what I think - we all need to talk to as many people as possible leading up to the election. Ask anyone and everyone you know who still trusts Bush why they have such faith in him. Get to understand their psyches...let them know the truth...do whatever you can! There is so much at stake...

Why, yes I can!

I don't talk to babbling strangers on the street.

"Bush spent 42% of his time on vacation!"

C'mon, that tired old canard? Sweaty desperation stinks, Babs.

Let me guess....Her website doesn't allow comments from people who peruse it.

I bet she can't read.

[tkathy]

Wonder what percent of his time Clinton spent messing with various women? And fighting with Hillary about it?

Gee Barbra you should know since you spend 100% time on a vacation.

Oh BTW, Barbra nice little try at skewing the %'s there. Bush was in office for 8 months.

Also Barbra how come no criticism of your congressman Harry Waxman spending the same time on "vacation".

[Yaelle]

Babs? Guess what? Questions actually are supposed to have question marks at the end.

I really don't think your life allows much contact with conservatives, so when you open your glorified pie-hole, you will only be preaching to members of your uninformed choir.

Glad you got the anti-Bush book on tape. I wasn't sure if you could read. Writing is not your strong point.

America:Shut Up Babs!"

[SkyPilot]

So here is what I think - we all need to talk

That is all you do Babs---talk, talk, and talk. Your soul is empty becasue you never listen to God.

I doubt that number. But mostly, a President is never really on vacation. Even when in Crawford he gets daily updates on a wide spectrum of issues. And (not that I ever liked him) the same can be said of Clinton. It's a prerequisite of the job.

I bet she can't read

She could probably read physical Bill Clinton braile.

"Bush spent 42% of his time on vacation"

And Babs spent over 25 nights in the Lincoln Bedroom during the Klintoon years, all while Hitlery was out of town .... but of course it was just business!

A simple political and geography lesson for Ms. Streisand: by the time the sun rises in Malibu, it's already been up over most of America.

[Ciexyz]

Put a sock in it, Babs.

[Spruce]

Why doesn't Babs go on a USO tour? Maybe she would get to "understand our psyches". Problem is she would meet nothing but contempt and hostility and that would hurt her feelings.

Keep on listening to your books, Babs, O great font of wisdom.
