rock star Bono,

Oh, please. I love their music, I have seen them in concert twice, but please.

I don't need "Bono" (not his real name) dazzling us with how Africa is "hurting." I know that. Their leaders are corrupt.

Condi looking good on FOX News Sunday.

Speaking of a transition of Russian-American relations out of the "Post Cold War" era. Iranian nuclear program won't get in the way of larger issues.

Methinks Putin nailed down the promise of eight billion dollars that the Iraqis owe Russia.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

DAscle insinuating Bush is a liar again.....about Bush having advance warning. At least TImmy challenged him on it a little and asked why he didn't have access....Daschle did a little dance around it...saying he did have access but it wasn't GIVEN to him ...Timmy said...'you could of seen it though'...'Yes', Daschle says.

Condi just SHOT DOWN the Joint Chiefs of Staff rumor, cautioning everyone that "third and fourth hand" news should be taken with a grain of salt. "Those involved with the meetings certainly would not be talking about it."

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Puff Dashle has REALLY stepped in it now! Accusing both GWB and Cheney they URGED him to not investigate 9/11. I hope he's ready for the backlash he has coming now. Can you believe a Senator accusing a President of such acts?

Here's a note I received from South Dakota.

*******************************************************

Hoefling U.S. Senate
P.O. Box 146 - Viborg, SD 57070
HoeflingUSSenate@aol.com

To my fellow South Dakotans and other concerned Americans,

The United States of America is the greatest nation in the world. That greatness springs from the principles that founded our republic more than 200 years ago, stated so well by Thomas Jefferson in 1776:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." - The Declaration of Independence

Defending the life, liberty and private property of our citizens--that is the primary purpose of our government.

The Constitution of the United States was written and enacted to clearly and unmistakably spell out what the duties and responsibilities of the federal government are, as well as clearly defining its limits--The enumerated powers describe those limits in words that any citizen can understand.

But for too many years now, liberal politicians in Washington, D.C. have willfully ignored or twisted these basic truths--By allowing and promoting the practice of abortion--By passing laws that clearly infringe on the liberties contained in the Bill of Rights--By undertaking national control of education, health care, and a myriad of tasks best left to local control or private enterprise--By enacting a tax code that is invasive, counterproductive and unfair--And by regularly ignoring the Tenth Amendment:

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

These elected officials--currently led by Tom Daschle and the Daschle Democrats--have, in my opinion, forfeited their right to lead. They have abrogated the oath they took upon entering office to uphold and defend the Constitution. And so now the time has come to remove them from power through the means provided for in our founding documents--Elections.

That is why I have decided to challenge Senator Daschle in 2004.

I am completely dedicated to the principles of life and liberty-And I am ready, willing and able to defend them on any platform in America; and, Lord willing, in the United States Senate.

Regards, Tom Hoefling

******************************************************

About Tom Hoefling

Tom Hoefling is a long-time national conservative activist and former Republican Party official. In 2000 he was the National Political Director for Alan Keyes, and is the former President of the American Conservative Coalition.

He has been at the forefront on cutting edge conservative issues, such as proposing plans to replace the federal income tax. He is dedicated to teaching young people about their political heritage as Americans, as well as urging all Americans to fulfill their civic duties.

Tom has been a publisher and a Main Street merchant--so he has a real understanding of what the small-businessmen and women of South Dakota are experiencing--but he spent many of his younger years on the factory floor--he can easily relate to those who work for a paycheck.

Tom and his wife Chelle have six children; Matthew-19, Jessica-16, Katie-16, Lindsey-10, Timothy-7, and Shannon-7.

They live on an acreage near Viborg, South Dakota.

Please pitch in and help now!!

The critical task of defeating Tom Daschle is one that Tom takes very seriously, but it is not his job alone--he needs your maximum effort as well.

There are three things he is asking you to do immediately:

1. Send your most generous contribution to:

With your help in these areas, we can get the job done!

Cheney's gonna have another coronary........Daschle outright called him a complete liar after Timmy played the excerpt of Cheney saying that he never called Daschle and asked that.

Gag alert on the Timmy & Tommy Show! I refuse to dial into that lovefest. Maybe Timmy felt that since he gave Veep Cheney an hour last week, he has to do the same for the opposing side. Too bad it's Memorial Day weekend & viewership will be in the dumpster. :)

I guess we will be seeing the lib David Corn on FOX News from now on. He replaced Jeff Cohen on FOX News Watch yesterday and will soon come up on the panel on FOX News Sunday. He can be just as exasperating as Jeff Cohen. UGH!

I'm a big FOXNews fan, but the two goober anchors on this morning are literally too stoopid for prime time. Did anyone else see how they totally botched describing the Dan Rather/Imus/John Ashcroft dust-up from last week?

Dirt has a higher IQ than this bimbo!!

DAscle insinuating Bush is a liar again...

On FNS, Britt brought up DassHole's comment and asked Rep. Porter Goss whether such a comment by the Senate Majority Leader is accurate. Goss: "I don't think he has a leg to stand on."

Daschle just stepped in it. Cheney says NOTHING about meetings and past conversations without fully reviewing the record. He is VERY careful in this regard.

I think we will find that Tommy screwed the pooch yet again!

Be Seeing You,

Chris

I did see Juliette Cuddy & her male counterpart on FOX try to describe the Rather-Ashcroft 'conflict' with the headline, "Rather Paranoid??" Neither of those newsreaders should EVER stray from the printed word! She had difficulty standing in front of the US weather map!

I forced myself to watch it. Tommy D. is especially smarmy this morning. I can't believe that anyone watching him today would fall for that fake sincerity. He was especially despicable in accusing the VP and President of being liars. The chickens will come home to roost after this one. Pubbies should come out with all rhetorical guns blazing in the coming week.
