    Fatwa issued by radical cleric

    Right wingers will claim voter fraud if you say Chavez was democratically elected. They *hate* Chavez. The Bush admin did help with a coup to try to overthrow him, so he might have good reason to think that they might try to assassinate him. His ties with Castro do make me uneasy, but it seems like the people of Venezuela love him. Oh, and he called Bush a "dickhead", or the Spanish equivalent. This is one of my favorite quotes I've ever read about the situation in Venezuela.

    Wal-mart's next move in controling

    "What is the world's largest seller of CDs?" has been asked at bar trivia twice in the past couple months for some reason. It's Wally World.

    Damn this Not Sorry site is a goldmine. What's up with all the guns? Can you read the fine print? "Kill liberals and gays...Europeans dead" I think.

    The Cost of Oil.

    You must live somewhere with good public transport. That would be nigh impossible here.

    Haha! Boon, moveon.org is a liberal PAC. Obviously, you wouldn't like it. I don't like the involvement of PACs and 527s in elections and would like further electoral finance reform, but what are you gonna do? Do you have a problem with moveon in general or all PAC/527s? Also, I find the Cindy Sheehan bickering and the whole media spotlight on her annoying. However, I do feel like the questions she has raised to Bush, "Why are we in Iraq? Why did my son die?"--are pertinent. I find it especially ironic that conservatives decry the media attention that she gets and then they won't shut up about her. And Justice, this link is for you. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=htt...6lr%3D%26sa%3DN

    Did you know she has ties to *gasp* MOVEON.ORG! *shudders* Is that better?

    Thank God we have this guy supporting the troops down there in Crawford. Here he is snatching a sign from some hippy anti-war peacenik. The guy in my sig is also showing those lefties what for. If only we could send in this guy, we could really put those pinkos on the run.

    The Budget

    Bush's proposed budget is really chapping my ass. Not surprisingly, he's using the insane debt that he's amassed as an excuse to remove the safety net that we had established for poor people. But of course, poor people don't vote for his side, so who really gives a fuck? http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,12271,1407400,00.html And, he's "SUPPORTINGOURTROOPS2003!" by increasing their co-pay and coverage fees! http://www.nytimes.com/auth/login?URI=http...252|KH{c5vjevb- So, in the immortal words of an old black guy in a Dave Chappelle standup routine, "if I see President Bush, I'll kick his muthafuckin' ass..."

    Campaign 2008

    Clark was very green in politics in 04. He will be much more seasoned by 08. Right now he's working as an analyst for Faux News so maybe he'll build up a reputation with its esteemed audience. I don't think he's said that he didn't want to run again. I think I could get behind a Clark bid. I would prefer Russ Feingold, but he just went through a divorce so a run seems unlikely.

    Danville, Gore isn't going to run. He has stated so unequivocally.
