BAGHDAD - A statement signed by the group of Al-Qaeda frontman in Iraq Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was distributed outside a Sunni mosque in Baghdad after Friday prayers. The leaflet was handed out in broad daylight by unmasked men outside the Abu Hanifa mosque, the most influential Sunni mosque in Baghdad, an AFP correspondent reported. The statement, whose authenticity could not be verified, offered Zarqawi's version of the ongoing battle between his militants and US troops in the western region of Al-Qaim, near the Syrian border. The leaflet denounced an alliances between "the troops of the crusaders, the Rafidha (Shiites) and...

What Alvarez and scores of residents of her impoverished Havana neighborhood found at their doorstep was a pocket-size reprint of Bush's Jan. 20 inaugural address in which he vowed to free the world of tyranny. The speech and a second pamphlet containing the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights arrived anonymously in the dead of night and are part of an escalating U.S. government program to spur political change in this one-party state. For decades, the U.S. government's attempt to penetrate Cuba with information has had limited success. Cuban authorities routinely jam Radio and TV Marti, the anti-Castro broadcasts produced...

So the United Nations is all hot and bothered over leaflets. That's right — leaflets. Not the insurgents' leaflets — the ones that talk of murdering anyone who dare goes out and votes. Not a word about them. No, they are upset at "our" leaflets. The ones that simply remind Iraqis they have the chance to vote. They've plenty of words about them. The U.N. claims that we're taking sides. So, let me get this straight: Celebrating democracy is bad. Promising to butcher those who practice it is good? Only a body of soulless bodies like the U.N. could ignore...

Watch Video December 3, 2004 A group of Waco High students took their beliefs to the street Friday morning by staging a protest.

On November 18, the Sankei Shimbun of Japan reported in a dispatch to Seoul that a leaflet headlined, “The 10 lies of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il,” criticizing the North Korean system, were distributed at over 50 locations including Pyongyang, Nampo, Shiineuyju, Choengjin, and Hamheung. The leaflet obtained by the Sankei Shimbun, which was dated October 10, the Workers’ Party’s founding anniversary, included contents such as the household history of National Defense Committee Chairman Kim Jong Il and the fabrication of Juche ideology. Sankei Shimbun reported that as a result, North Korea is strengthening its inhabitants‘ ideology education....

DURHAM, N.H., October 28, 2004—The University of New Hampshire has evicted a student from housing for posting fliers in his residential hall joking that freshman women could lose the “Freshman 15” by walking up the dormitory stairs. The public university found him guilty of violating policies on affirmative action, harassment, and disorderly conduct, and has sentenced him to mandatory counseling and probation along with his eviction. [See the flier - PDF, 156.8 KB] In appealing his sentence, student Timothy Garneau explained that the flier was intended to make light of the common frustration with people who delay the elevator by...

In its heyday, the CIA was famous for mucking around in the affairs of banana republics, manipulating this, toppling that, and in best cases, achieving the political aims (usually leaders, actually) that the President of the U.S. sought. Iran, Philippines and Guatemala in the 1940s and 1950s were prime examples. But more often than not, these operations went wrong, horribly wrong - Bay of Pigs, Congo, Indonesia, Nicaragua come to mind, leaving the U.S. in a worse position than it started. The CIA may even have been involved in the botched coup d’etat attempt against modern banana republic Supremo Hugo...

This is a vanity, but I'm an "oldbie" so it's allowed (I think). I made up this flyer for those of you with 10 lb. brass cojones. They are to be printed up, copied, and handed out or otherwise distributed specifically in heavily Democratic areas. Note that it's a PDF file so you'll need Adobe Acrobat Reader to access it--most newer computers come with Acrobat reader as a standard feature. I think it's a pretty effective piece. See what you think. Click here to download a PDF of the "Democrats for Bush" flyer

ST. LOUIS (AP) - Missouri's Republican Party wants a Democratic-aligned group to stop circulating a get-out-the-vote flier that includes a 1960s photograph of a firefighter hosing a black man that reads: "This is what they used to do to keep us from voting." The America Coming Together handout accuses Republicans of conspiring to suppress the black vote through intimidation and such tactics as putting "phony cops at polling places - but only in African American neighborhoods." "They make African-American voters stand in line for hours, then turn them away from the polls," the flier reads. "Now (U.S. Attorney General) John...

I have created these flyers to help with the re-election of President Bush. These focus on the war on terrorism, President Bush's strategy and track record, and Kerry's disasterous policies and character issues.

Disgusting: Democrat poster compares Bush to mentally handicapped A Democratic incumbent Tennessee state legislator is circulating a disgusting anti-Bush poster, and his Republican challenger is demanding he stop, and issue a public apology. Here's his emailed press release:Republican nominee for State House District 82, Dave Dahl, denounced a flyer distributed by Democrat State Representative Craig Fitzhugh that attacks Bush voters and mocks those who are mentally challenged (flyer included). "Hard-ball politics is one thing and everyone expects tough battles, but using those who are born with mental disabilities for political fodder is disgusting," said Dave Dahl on Monday from his...

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - A member of a group that has run ads attacking John Kerry's Vietnam War record pulled out of an anti-Kerry rally over the weekend after learning that it was promoted at the local headquarters for President Bush's campaign. Joe Ponder, wounded during the war in 1968 and now a member of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, said he backed out of the Saturday speaking engagement after learning that fliers promoting the event had been distributed Friday at Alachua County Republican headquarters, which houses the local Bush-Cheney campaign. "I had the assurance that the party and the Bush-Cheney...

Just found out from lurking that the DUers have been going to the Florida Republican Headquarters and taking pictures and sending them to the Gainesville Sun and other papers. These people are disgustingly ruthless and are planning on going to other Republican Headquarters around. Here are the pictures they took:

Since this story has broken, there has been some serious questions about the veracity of these claims. I'm posting this to show that the story is a total fabrication and has direct ties to none other than John Kerry. A volunteer for John Kerry said Friday he picked up a flier in a Bush-Cheney campaign office in Gainesville, Fla., promoting Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, a group the Bush campaign has insisted for weeks it has no connection to. Bill Shilling, a Kerry volunteer in Gainesville, says he went to the GOP offices there Thursday and picked up the flier...
