Dumb show (UK's Guardian Cries Out for Bush Assassination)
The Guardian (UK) ^ | 10/23/04 | Charlie Brooker

From the article by Guardian columnist Charlie Brooker:

"On November 2, the entire civilised world will be praying, praying Bush loses. And Sod's law dictates he'll probably win, thereby disproving the existence of God once and for all. The world will endure four more years of idiocy, arrogance and unwarranted bloodshed, with no benevolent deity to watch over and save us. John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley Jr - where are you now that we need you?"

Charlie Brooker of the UK Guardian isn't too smart.

IF something did happen to GWB, he would be replaced by a President Cheney. And they wouldn't like that at all. hehehe

To: Tax Government
The Guardian is acting as a terrorist organization, sponsoring individuals who make threats against our government, and encouraging others to carry out those crimes.
Too bad this story won't make it on the MSM news. I even have my doubts about Fox. Fox News has become some sickenly "fair and balanced" these days that it's now joining the ranks of the MSM. Which, I suspect, is what they've wanted to do all along.

Fair and balanced (translation): Provide ever more DNC talking points and less and less coverage of the crimes of the left.

Civilized world?... Dear sir having spent the better part of the last 15 years doing business in the UK you are far from the civility you claim, lest you forget the millions of people Britannia has oppressed and raped. We will buy your shitty little wet island and hand it over to the Palestinians you so love and support for there new homeland. Enjoy the tea and go fuck yourself.

It seems the whole The Guardian website is out of commission at the moment.

[Isn't this the publication that nosed in on the Ohio voters---and many of them responded not too kindly to the publication?]

Implicitly advocating the killing of a sitting American President. I do not like Bush, but this guy needs a good whipping! Literally with a whip! Foreign trash!

ROFLMAO!

Waxman,Thomas, Arafat=Offspring........
You're talking about an individual who has to sneak up on his butt in the dark, to wipe it.

We definately have the worst form of government ever devised by man, except for all the rest.

"One more thing, should someone drop a dime to Homeland Security about the Guardian? I know they are outside the US but maybe HS could forward it to the people who need to know."

That's precisely what the needy greedy Guardian would like and want, FREE PRESS about their press. Why bother.

Their webpage appears to be down right now, imagine that. The proprietors of the paper are probably attending an emergeny meeting to try to stay out of jail. Bunch of idiots.

Could be that their web site has been overwhelmed by irate American's-probably Brits too.

This Charlie Booger guy is of a type with Michael Mooron.Both are fat,smelly,sweaty pimply-faced Neanderthal-foreheaded losers who couldn't get dates-with either sex.They both nurtured delusions of superiority within themselves to compensate for their lack of social interaction. They hold simultaneously a bitter private envy and a secret grudging admiration of men like George W Bush,real men comfortable in their skins and at ease with the world around them.Both probably privately have torn pictures from magazines of George W in their pizza-box-strewn bedrooms,plastered all over the walls,like a secretive guilty shrine to a height of manhood that they know they can never attain. The fact that George W Bush was an accomplished dashing jet flier only adds to the love/hate.They publicly mock Our President's intelligence even as they are fully aware that not only does this strong confident manly man have a degree with an aceeptable grade point average,he has something that can't be taught-an easy popularity both with men and women who know him and a capability to positively inspire others around him.

They are slightly less unhinged versions of John Hinckley themselves-they want to destroy that which they can never be,believing in some twisted way that that will make them themselves become it.

In short,thay are pathetic insecure excuses for manhood,with a love/hate relationship for that which they can never aspire to be.

In order for this story to "go away", the Guardian needs to
not just remove it, but apologize for it, and discharge the
hack that wrote it.

Somehow I think that won't happen, and Monday's talk radio
will be all over this story.

Son of a gun,it's gone. I had put it into my AOL favorites and also E-Mailed it to someone,but all gone.

How do you save something like this,so if they pull it you still have a copy? Obviously my PC skills are minimal.
