Washington Whispers: Bush poster child (President to contact 3-year-old Sophia Parlock!)

Bush Poster Child

If the picture of little 3-year-old Sophia Parlock crying after some Kerry-Edwards supporters tore up her Bush-Cheney poster got to you, well, you weren't the only one. President Bush and even first pup Barney were dismayed too, we hear. It happened at a West Virginia rally last week for Democratic running mate Sen. John Edwards, to which Phil Parlock brought his daughter. After seeing the picture of the tearful Sophia on her dad's shoulders, aides said the president was sending her a little note Friday along with a signed campaign poster and an autographed photo of the prez and his dog. "Dear Sophia," Bush penned, "Thank you for supporting my campaign. I understand someone tore up your sign. So I am sending you a new sign and a signed picture. Please give my best to your family. Sincerely, George W. Bush." And on the picture, he inked: "To Sophia, Best wishes from me and Barney." Phil Parlock tells us it really wasn't necessary. "He already said 'Thank you' when he hugged her" at a previous Bush rally they attended, he says. "She bragged for days."

I forget where I heard it on the radio today but some host was giving the dad a hard time for taking his daughter to a Kerry rally.

The dad supposedly should have known better to put his daughter in jeopardy by having her near the Kerry supporting union-thugs, the host kept saying over and over.

That got me even more ticked off. If those union jerk don't have any respect for a 3-year old girl, they don't deserve to walk this earth.

For the life of me, I can't see what union members think they get for all the money and support they throw to the Democrats. I guess they keep imagining the Democrats are upping their wages and giving them free health care.

What delusional dudes.

>So has the rough and tough union thug bastard been ID'd yet?

I got a copy of the response of the Painter Union today and the offender was 'being dealt' with. Let's hope that doesn't mean a high five.

Those children do a wonderful rendition of a truly inspiring song.
I remember back when I was a young boy and we learned this song and other patriotic tunes in school.
We also said the Pledge of Allegiance too, every day.

Sorry, I forgot (/sarcasm) Was responding to the person who posted that they questioned the timing so I thought the joke was implied.

Folks,
Here is a copy of a post that was posted on the AARP site by some left winger who is a Kerry supporter. These people are evil and dangerous.
Freepers,
I read from the AARP site at times and just a few minutes ago I came across this from one of our Liberal Kerry lovers.

"God" is sending a clear "message" to all southern states. It is "safe" to
conclude using the rules of the Religious Rightarded that "God" has "had it"
with "BushCountry". He has "sent" his third hurricane and working on his fourth
slamming it into the coastal regions of southern Repug voters. Ivan will hit the
Florida pan-handle hard where Shrub voters lurk and scurry.

Have fun all you Rightards in ShrubCountry. Let me know what it's like to be
homeless and hurting. "God" has lowered his "shield"....

You live and die by your rules*. That's not perfect justice but it will have to
do.

*Don't expect or dare even ASK for federal aid. Let the private sector handle
it. After all, tell Ivan you have your tax cut.




Arguing with a fool only brings you down to their level,

Where they will beat you with their experience!!

We know what DU says.

They are ignoring that the union has apologized today. The union knows it was their guy. (duh)

What made me mad was the idea, obviously in Democrat's minds, that people with different views just shouldn't even use their rights under the Constitution.

The idea of saying, "you idiot, you should have known bringing a Bush poster to our rally would get you beat up" is LUDICROUS!

I'm still waiting for some city's police and prosecuters to really go after these thugs. They are no better than common criminals that would rape, kill, and attack others for fun or money.

Or maybe the GOP should hire some thugs to beat the crap out of Democratic protestors that show up at every rally held by a Republican. Maybe being on the receiving end for a change will teach them a lesson. All we have to say is, "but didn't you know it was a stupid idea to show up at a Bush rally with a union sign"?

Why can't the mothers of these pinheads have had abortions?
