Maria Yurasek says she'd vote for a dog if it could beat President Bush.

As I said, they would vote for Saddam Hussein if he could beat Bush. They have no ethics, no morality, no patriotism.

Oh yes, and all those disgruntled Florida voters let their feelings be known too. They re-elected Jeb Bush governor!

"the stuff the AP lives for. "

Yeah, two weeks ago the same "Judy Donovan" was being quoted by AP reporter Ron Fournier.
here

..."I don't care who wins" the Democratic primary, said Judy Donovan of Tucson, Arizona "I'd get my dog to run. I'm not kidding. I would get Mickey Mouse in there. Anybody but Bush."

(Wouldn't it be funny if these people started a union and made AP pay them residuals?)

"In Arizona, Judy Donovan says she feels desperate for a new president."

I can't quite remember what it was, but there is a phrase I have for this twit that rhymes with duck off. Oh well, I'll remember it eventually.

John McAdams, a political scientist at Marquette University, said resentment of Bush is particularly strong among liberals who already hold three things against him: "First, he's a conservative. Second, he's a Christian. And third, he's a Texan.

Looks like they got it wrong on two counts. Isn't Bush actually from Connecticut?

Fully a quarter of Americans - mostly Democrats - tell pollsters they have a very unfavorable opinion of the president, more than double the number from last April.

That's still fewer than the third of this country who couldn't stand Clinton from Day One! Of course, our side was marginalized as "Clinton haters", while their side is written about favorably.

This "hate of Bush" is something I don't understand. And it appears to be growing. I wonder, after Clinton, and now Kerry, if character means anything anymore to the American people. I pray that the RNC can stem this tide before it's too late.

I wonder what the real elements of this hate are?

1. Immigrant labor

2. Jobs going overseas

3. etc.

Do we really know the why's???

In Washington state, Maria Yurasek says she'd vote for a dog if it could beat President Bush.

Lucky Maria.

There will be a dog running for president with ketchup smeared all over his whiskers. His name is Kerry-Heinz.

Mr. Bush is no longer tempted by the sky

Officers who flew fighter-jet patrols in the early 1970s with George W. Bush describe him as a gung-ho warrior and a gifted pilot who was popular in his Texas Air National Guard unit. The positive descriptions of Bush's military service make his sudden decision to quit flying in the spring of 1972 ? two years before his pilot commitment was up ? all the more puzzling.

Why 1st Lt. Bush stopped flying F-102 fighters remains murky despite the release on Friday of more than 400 pages of records detailing his Guard service from the time he enlisted until he was discharged. Asked for an explanation about why Bush stopped flying, the White House said Bush "served admirably" in the Guard, was given permission by commanders to fulfill his obligations in ways that did not involve flying and was honorably discharged. "President Bush is proud of his service," said Dan Bartlett, communications director.

Bush, whose father was in Congress at the time, was selected for Air Force pilot training, a highly competitive process, despite the speeding tickets and automobile accidents. He had also been arrested for two incidents considered college pranks: stealing a wreath in New Haven, Conn., and rowdiness at a college football game.

The combination of arrests and traffic violations and the score in the bottom quarter of those who took the pilot exam usually would have cast doubt on most applicants who were applying for pilot training, four former and current National Guard fighter pilots and one former Air Force pilot said. All served in the 1970s.

After Bush stopped flying fighter jets in April 1972 and did not take an annual physical examination required of all pilots, the Air Force should have required a hearing known as a flying evaluation board to determine his fitness to fly. Because the federal government spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to train each pilot, it typically did not allow them to stop flying without a formal proceeding. Bush's records do not mention a flying evaluation board.

The president's advisers and friends have explained that Bush stopped flying because his unit was phasing out the F-102 in 1972. They also say he was not able to get a required flight physical in Alabama, where his records show he was granted permission to train in the fall of 1972. Bartlett said there was no need for a physical exam because Bush stopped flying, report USA Today

This past week tested the proposition that it may be possible to know too much about President Bush. The White House, determined to refute Democratic charges that Mr. Bush was AWOL from the National Guard, so frantically disgorged hundreds of pages of documents from Mr. Bush's military files that reporters who normally complain about presidential secrecy found themselves drowning in a monsoon of Bush World minutiae. The documents did little to solve the argument between the president and his critics about where, when and how often Lieutenant Bush turned up for Guard duty in 1972 and 1973. But they did reveal that while in Alabama, Mr. Bush had at least nine cavities and that he has gained 19 pounds since 1971.

Medical files in the stack show that Mr. Bush was 5 feet 11 1/2 inches tall, with a weight that fluctuated from 175 pounds to 184 pounds between 1968 and 1971. (In his most recent physical, in August 2003, Mr. Bush weighed in at 194 pounds.) The weirdest document of the week was by far the dental records, which the White House sent out by e-mail with almost no warning at 8:30 p.m., meaning that reporters who clicked on the file at home suddenly found themselves face-to-face with a full-screen, close-up diagram of the president's teeth, informs NY Times

According to WorldNetDaily the White House has dug a hole and seems intent to keep digging as it attempts to defend the president's service record in the Texas and /or Alabama Air National Guard. The president has released teeth cleaning and pay records and now there is testimony from someone who witnessed that he was present for duty (observed looking at flying safety magazines and flight manuals) during Guard drill weekends in Alabama. Despite the generosity of White House's gesture, it hasn't made a dent in the criticism. The question is will the president's new defensive strategy backfire? It may not cost him the election, but he's going to lose a lot of presidential integrity points. First, we can debate the president's dental records from now until November, but the issue is one of credibility. The president, in an effort to sprinkle some honor on his Guard service, told America on "Meet the Press" that he flew fighters and would have gone to Vietnam if his unit had been called.

This is attempting to generat a story. How many reporters want Bush to loose? How many of those are not above created a story?

Will there be a story about Democrats who voted for Gore who are going to vote for Bush? So far only two. One about Ed Kotch, former mayor of NY, and Zell Miller, Democrat Senator.

Guys, this is what I keep warning about. Dismiss it if you will, but our President needs to do something about job losses. And he needs to do it now.

Horse hockey. If anger is so high, why has the primary turnout been so LOUSY? If the loons can't even get off their butts to vote...'Course this could also mean there aren't that many Bush-haters out there after all, couldn't it?

Hello group . . .

Doesn't anyone else see a correlation between the hostility for Gibson's THE PASSION

and the

hostility for President Bush?

and the

hostility for the rule of law in San Francisco?

Our universities have sown to the wind for decades.

Too many churches have done little better--especially by the examples in the lives of the members . . .

and our politicians have perhaps done worst of all . . .

The Bible speaks of people casting off restraints in our era . . .

it is beginning to appear that there are few restraints left to cast off. People are opently talking about making sex AND MARRIAGE with virtually anything that wiggles the 'law' of the land. People are openly talking about sexual abuse of children as a 'birthright.'

Evil is multiplying like bacteria.

Time to wake up, America!

Long past time.
