i was interviewed yesterday

1. We know that you started the busblog when you began working at the xbi, but what led you to start a blog as opposed to another form of release (i.e. alcoholism...Bukowski)?

A. im sure if they put a six pack of beer on my desk at the xbi i would have definately turned to a life of drink, instead they put a computer there with high speed internet access.

the question is, what would have happened if my job would have blocked access to blogger.com (shivvers)

either way i went to college for english, i graduated with a lit degree from the college of creative studies, and i wrote two-three stories a day for the daily paper for years - i was born to blog.

2. What satisfactions do you get out of your blogging, and would those change is your readership increased/decreased?

A. any time you write something good and you know in your heart its good it should bring about a pleasant feeling inside. that happens to me at least once a week and sometimes more. also when im in the moment of writing i laugh out loud even if what im writing isnt necessarilly funny.

neither of those has to do with readership. writers should seek pleasure simply from the writing itself.

however.

it is always thrilling when poeple fill up the comments with praise. im always really happy when people email me with nice words or say nice things in their blogs about me. especially when they say im their hero or other mind-blowing things like that. but even if i had no readers i would be writing.

3. Do you have a favorite subject to write about (girls, politics, the xbi, etc.)

A. if i could, i would start every blog post with "I ..." but that would be tedious on the readers - who are there and shouldnt be entirely ignored. and if i would allow myself to i would only write about women, dating, love, and fucking. but i would hate to be pigeonholed.

therefore this year i have written more about poltics than ever before, despite the complaints of some of my readers. however, i think i have grown as a writer because of this practice. unfortunately it also increased my hits. so there are people who do respond when i write about that stuff.

4. How much of the busblog is actually true?

A. thats a great question.

5. What inspires and drives you to blog multiple times a day?

A. im totally addicted. i saw a tv show where they talked about people who were addicted to drugs. one woman said, "when i have it i want it, when i dont have it i think about how i can get it. when i am running out i think about how i can get more." i can totally relate regarding blogging. my head has about 5x more ideas than i have time to blog. in a perfect world i would blog 10 times a day.

6. Why do you think blogging is becoming so popular so fast?

A. because real life stories written by real people are always far more interesting than fiction written by fakers. which of course is why i write so much fiction on the busblog.

7. What do you think is the future of blogging?

i see it spreading around more places than just the us, canada, and the uk. i know (and like) some of the int'l bloggers who are out there, but i can't wait to see more of them.

its sad that it took this fucked up "war" to get people interested in the iraqi bloggers, but blogging is capable anywhere with internet access.

everyone has stories to be written down. the beauty of blogging is if you consistently write good stories eventually you will become more popular. this wasnt the case a few years ago when you would have had to get an agent, a book deal, and distrubition - and even then you still might not have gotten read by the average person.

i also expect to see more people learning how to use video editing software so that they can expose lying liars through their own words via video like what jim gilliam is doing to o'reilly.

and i also predict more big time web sites like espn, mtv, playboy, maxim, rollingstone, and maybe even the white house to have blogs written by their staff or by bloggers who are hired specifically to blog.

hint hint mr kerry.

saidy has the best video of jon stewart + tiffany + ken layne was in an article

i just got my millionth pageview of the year yesterday



thank you from all of us at the busblog
 
my hands are killing me and im on my way to the doctor for some physical therapy, so i will make this short.

last night karisa and i did laundry. over the years she has become increasingly less interested in taking pictures.

god only knows why.

i see her so infrequently though that i find it necessary to sneak a few pics out of her so i hope she understands.

we're both getting old. i was rubbing my hands and arms, she was rubbing her neck due to a pinched nerve. there was a time when we were indestructable rock gods, but now we're just simply old.

but we will rock for you one day, america.

trust me.

as we did our laundry we talked about many things as we watched most extreme elimination on the spike channel.

we debated the debates and she suprised me on the controversy surrounding her boy kerry who got some heat yesterday for bringing up the fact that dick cheneys daughter is a lesbian.

karisa thought it was in bad taste, and thought that edwards shouldnt have mentioned it in his debate either.

she believes that peoples family should be off-limits as far as debates go

even if their parents are hypocrites and try to pass constitutional ammendments that would limit their gay and lesbian children's rights.

i took the stance that everything is fair game, especially when the child in question is an adult, out, and working for her father's re-election campaign.

i believe that ms. cheney is probably happy that her rights are being debated, and since she is out, and unashamed about her sexuality, is worth whatever privacy she has lost personally to ensure that millions of americans will be treated as equally as the rest of the nation.

karisa wasnt buying it.

i wanted to show her what someone on the GayPatriot's comments section typed regarding the controversy:
I think the reason why Kerry brought up Cheney's daughter is because the President had just sat there and said he did not know if [being gay] is a choice or not, he evidently has no thought on whether people choose to be gay or not...yet his right arm has a daughter, who has been very supportive and active in their campaign. So if he cared about the issue or about whether someone who is gay has a choice to be otherwise, why not ask a person who has been very active in your campaign?

I think Kerry was showing that the President was skirting the issue and has no excuse to skirt the issue. Mary Cheney is an openly gay woman who works for the campaign. She is fair play in my book. Besides the fact that Kerry made not ONE negative reference to her.
For the Republicans to construe it as distasteful merely shows their true feelings about the fact she's a lesbian in the first place. As if by mentioning she is a lesbian has a negative impact. If it does, well then that shows the ignorance of the American people who evidently do think gays have a choice to be other than what they are.

As Lynne said, if it's a cheap shot to praise her daughter for being honest about who she is, then that evidently shows what they think about who their daughter is.

Could he have avoided mentioning her? Sure, but the fact is the Bush Administration has been proactive about making gays an issue in this campaign and so if they are going to wage that war, their side is fair game as well.

I wish Kerry had gone where he should have gone and asked the President point blank why he would deny the Vice President's daughter the right to receive benefits of marriage. Bush's only argument was gays are deserving of respect. He made NO MENTION of whether they deserve any RIGHTS or BENEFITS in their decision to enter into a commitment with one another.

Yes, we all know on the issue of marriage, Kerry has the same view that it is between a man and a woman. The difference is that he at least speaks about the fact that they should NOT be denied the basic rights that every straight couple receives automatically when married. I'm sorry but on that point, Kerry spoke far more admirably on the issue.

Bush was the condescending one, saying we deserve respect no matter what relationships we enter into...as if there is something inherently wrong with those relationships to begin with. He completely avoided the question by saying he did not know if it was a choice.
if i was Kerry i would have answered the question thusly:

Q. Do you think homosexuality is a choice?
A. Ask the governor of New Jersey if he would have chosen to be a gay american while in office, I bet he would say no. Ask the vice president's daughter if she could have picked a more convienent time to be a lesbian. As a straight man I can only speculate, but I would assume that if it was a choice when people could be gay they would only be gay on vacation or in a friendly country like canada.

jim gilliam has done it again. but truth be told it sort of fell in his lap.

gilliam, the co-producer of the scandalous Outfoxed, the documentary about the alleged republican favoritism of Fox News Channel. Its best moments, in my opinion was when they were exposing FNC's biggest draw, Bill O'Reilly.

since gilliam had access to more Factor than is probably good for ones mental health, he was able to put together a cleverly done quicktime fisking if the need came up.

When O'Reilly was slapped yesterday with a $60 million sexual harrasment lawsuit after forcing a producer to listen to his sexual advice exploits and exaggerations,

the last person he wanted to have some free time would be jim gilliam

internet superstar

coproducer of the doc aimed right at him

who just happens to be sitting on hours and hours and hours of o'reilly being o'reilly.

enjoy the majesty.
 
more debate coverage that you wont see on the worlds most popular political blog

KERRY: When the president had an opportunity to capture or kill Osama bin Laden, he took his focus off of them, outsourced the job to Afghan warlords, and Osama bin Laden escaped.

Six months after he said Osama bin Laden must be caught dead or alive, this president was asked, "Where is Osama bin Laden?"

He said, "I don't know. I don't really think about him very much. I'm not that concerned."

We need a president who stays deadly focused on the real war on terror.

SCHIEFFER: Mr. President?

BUSH: Gosh, I just don't think I ever said I'm not worried about Osama bin Laden.

It's kind of one of those exaggerations.

PIERCE: Mr. President, this video suggests otherwise.

sifry + saidy + paul frankenstein
 
o'reilly is in deep do do. not only is he being sued in a $60 million sexual harrasment case where he

allegedly

invited a thirtysomething female producer of the Factor to purchase a vibrator, but used a battery-operated one shaped as a "cock" on himself as he talked to her

(as well as told her some interesting things that al franken can expect)

but now his arch enemy jim gilliam has dug up a video of o'reilly discussing sexual harrasment back in march of this year on the Factor where he says that men are "barbarians":
O'REILLY: In the "Back of the Book" Segment tonight, you may remember a minor tiff was created by feminist Naomi Wolf a few weeks ago when she wrote an article saying one of her Yale professors rubbed her thigh while mentoring her at that college. That set off debate about sexual harassment, which is a problem the world over, no question.

With us now is Dr. Linda Mills, a professor of social work at NYU and author of the book "Insult to Injury: Rethinking Our Responses to Intimate Abuse."

So you say that women -- some of them are using this as a club, this sexual harassment deal sometimes, huh?

LINDA MILLS, PH.D., NEW YORK UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR: Yes, I mean I think what happens is that women are denying, in a sense, their own sexual beings, and this is an opportunity and a time in our culture for women to think about themselves as sexual beings and to use that, their -- that identity.

O'REILLY: Yes, but it's impossible and I'll tell you why. Men -- and I know men real well, being a manly man -- are barbarians. They're just barbarians, OK. They see a good-looking woman. It's -- they're not respecting their intellect. They're -- you know? And if they get a come- on at all by the woman whom they feel is attractive, then they're in. So, if you say women have got to be cognizant of their sexuality, that's going to open doors for all kinds of things women may not be prepared for.

MILLS: Well, that's absolutely right, and we need to educate women about that very fact, but it doesn't mean that we need to hold them completely harmless, that they're always victims, and that if we don't see the relationship between men and women and what women bring to that relationship, somehow they're -- they never get to...

O'REILLY: But isn't there a difference between social -- socializing and trying to find a mate and trying to get a relationship going and in a workplace or in a college -- you know, what Wolf's contention was with this guy -- Bloom, I guess, his name is -- took advantage of her when she was a student, and that happens all the time.

MILLS: Absolutely.

O'REILLY: It happens all the time where powerful men see a good- looking student, and they try to make a move. Now, you know, this thing happened 30 years ago, whatever. I think maybe Naomi might have let it go, all right, but how does a woman protect herself against that kind of thing?

MILLS: Well, but what's different about the Naomi Wolf case and many sexual harassment cases is that they did have a relationship and that right now we don't recognize the relationship...

-- later the conversation got even better ---

O'REILLY: I still think the guy abused his position, if it happened, and I kind of believe Wolf. But, look, I think that the sexual harassment thing is used as a club, as I said, by many women, all right. It's something they have against men, a threat to keep men at bay in a very competitive marketplace.

MILLS: Well, I think -- I actually interpret it a little differently, and that is that they use their sexuality in certain ways, and then when they get nervous, they run behind the sort of legal shield of sexual harassment, and that's the part that's a problem because I think that women are these sexual beings, and we need to recognize that. That's a feminist position.

O'REILLY: Some women are. Do you think all women are?

MILLS: Absolutely not.

O'REILLY: I don't.

MILLS: I completely agree with you.

O'REILLY: You know, there are women who manipulate themselves and use their sexuality to get ahead, all right.

MILLS: Absolutely.

O'REILLY: And then these women will turn around and file a sexual harassment...

MILLS: But shouldn't we account for that, just that?

O'REILLY: But how do you prove it? It's very difficult to prove it.

MILLS: Well, it's hard to prove sexual harassment now as it is, but why not...

O'REILLY: Well, if you grab somebody's thigh, I mean -- if somebody sees it or you...

Let me ask you one more thing. This is really dangerous. It used to be in the workplace that you could make a sexual joke or something. Not anymore, right? You're crazy if you do that, right?

MILLS: Well, yes, but that's on both sides. Men and women.

O'REILLY: Oh, I've never heard of a woman making a sexual joke and being charged with anything.

MILLS: Well, the irony is that the studies show that men don't take it seriously, and so they're less likely to make claims, right?

O'REILLY: Yes, right.

MILLS: But I think that's true on both sides, and it's -- it has changed, in a sense, the dynamic at work.

O'REILLY: Well, it's changed my life. I'll tell you, when I was a thug coming up, I mean I would say almost anything around women, and now I don't say anything, you know, that could be remotely taken -- you know, because, obviously, I'm a big target, and any kind of a thing like that stigmatizes you, whether you're guilty or not, doesn't it?

MILLS: Absolutely.

O'REILLY: So it's -- women -- that's a big power source for them, and I think some women use it ruthlessly.
o'reilly appeared on Regis & Kelly this morning where he discussed the case, not once denying that he sexually harrassed his producer (who was a former Bush intern, and therefore probably not a Democrat trying to sling mud), instead said that the $60 million settlement offer was outrageous.

the host of the factor said, "not even the 9/11 victim families got that much." he added that although he agreed with some of his cohorts who said that taking this on might be the end of his career he said, "enough is enough."

and still he didnt deny the charges. the author of a new children's book, o'reilly seemingly only had issues with the price of the settlement.

a cnn/gallup/usa today poll had kerry winning the debate 52-39. msnbc's online poll had kerry winning 71-29, cbs's poll had kerry winning it 39-25 (36% had it as a draw).

but cbs cant be trusted, my gop friends say.

so we go to fox news since theyre fair n balanced

whose internet poll had kerry winning it 55-44.

so basically nobody thinks that bush won this debate

except

the instapundit

worlds greatest blogger

who says bush won it "hands down".

and then finds three people who agree with him. and links to noone who disagrees with him.

im shocked.

shocked.

the president gave his best performance last night. i like how he was emphasizing words in that wonderfully unique way of his.

harkens back to the days when dana carvey would imitate his pappy.

"wouldnt be prudent, wouldnt be prudent."

its almost like a shatner

punching

those key words on the down beat

and then letting it resonate out there with a confident pause for emphasis.

much like how a change machine has to load up again for a while, resetting, after its dispensed $5 in quarters.

tonight made me realize that i will miss my retarded president

who, the writing is on the wall, is doomed to continue his losing ways and have his ass handed to him in the election in three weeks,

because america isnt as lame as its current leader.

apparently.

watching the debates tonight showed clearly that yes anyone could be president, but not everyone should be, because when just anyone becomes president, they can fuck shit up a little worse than we ever expected.

you dont have to be in iraq to know that shits fucked

here on the local abc tv station they featured this "undecided" voter who was grading each question.

before the debates he said he wasnt crazy about bush and was definately not crazy about kerry either.

but the thing that made him decide to vote for kerry was when bush looked in the camera and told middle class workers that they had more money today and they were doing better because of him.
Bush: You know, he talks to the workers. Let me talk to the workers.

You've got more money in your pocket as a result of the tax relief we passed and he opposed.

If you have a child, you got a $1,000 child credit. That's money in your pocket.

If you're married, we reduced the marriage penalty. The code ought to encourage marriage, not discourage marriage.

We created a 10 percent bracket to help lower-income Americans. A family of four making $40,000 received about $1,700 in tax relief.

It's your money. The way my opponent talks, he said, We're going to spend the government's money. No, we're spending your money.
the instantly decided voter told the abc reporter, "im not doing better, and if bush thinks things are better for people right now then he's seriously out of touch."

which is ironic since it seemed that bushies new strategy was to drive home the fact that kerry is "out of the mainstream."

as if being out of the mainstream has ever hurt either man in their political careers.

who knew canadian drugs and health care would be such an achillies heel to the president when everyone thought kerry would be able to waltz right into the white house due to the quagmire in iraq, no wmd, no obl, and the record-breaking deficit?

but somehow health care was the sleeper hold, the secret weapon, the the tiny gspot of the death star and lynchpin to its destruction. witness:
KERRY: The reason health care costs are getting higher, one of the principal reasons is that this administration has stood in the way of common-sense efforts that would have reduced the costs. Let me give you a prime example.

In the Senate we passed the right of Americans to import drugs from Canada. But the president and his friends took it out in the House, and now you don't have that right. The president blocked you from the right to have less expensive drugs from Canada.

We also wanted Medicare to be able to negotiate bulk purchasing. The VA does that. The VA provides lower-cost drugs to our veterans. We could have done that in Medicare.

Medicare is paid for by the American taxpayer. Medicare belongs to you. Medicare is for seniors, who many of them are on fixed income, to lift them out of poverty.

But rather than help you, the taxpayer, have lower cost, rather than help seniors have less expensive drugs, the president made it illegal – illegal – for Medicare to actually go out and bargain for lower prices.

Result: $139 billion windfall profit to the drug companies coming out of your pockets. That's a large part of your 17 percent increase in Medicare premiums.

When I'm president, I'm sending that back to Congress and we're going to get a real prescription drug benefit.
yes i liked the tony soprano analogy. if you missed it, the president was asked, "what do you say to someone in this country who has lost his job to someone overseas who's being paid a fraction of what that job paid here in the United States?"

to which dubya said he would tell him to go back to junior college.
Bush: "... education is how to help the person who's lost a job. Education is how to make sure we've got a workforce that's productive and competitive.

Got four more years, I've got more to do to continue to raise standards, to continue to reward teachers and school districts that are working, to emphasize math and science in the classrooms, to continue to expand Pell Grants to make sure that people have an opportunity to start their career with a college diploma.

And so the person you talked to, I say, here's some help, here's some trade adjustment assistance money for you to go a community college in your neighborhood, a community college which is providing the skills necessary to fill the jobs of the 21st century. And that's what I would say to that person."
to which sen. kerry said
KERRY:I want you to notice how the president switched away from jobs and started talking about education principally.

Let me come back in one moment to that, but I want to speak for a second, if I can, to what the president said about fiscal responsibility.

Being lectured by the president on fiscal responsibility is a little bit like Tony Soprano talking to me about law and order in this country.

(LAUGHTER)

This president has taken a $5.6 trillion surplus and turned it into deficits as far as the eye can see. Health-care costs for the average American have gone up 64 percent; tuitions have gone up 35 percent; gasoline prices up 30 percent; Medicare premiums went up 17 percent a few days ago; prescription drugs are up 12 percent a year.

But guess what, America? The wages of Americans have gone down. The jobs that are being created in Arizona right now are paying about $13,700 less than the jobs that we're losing.
so much more to say, so please feel free to leave your opinions in the comments.

dear readers of the busblog who are lawyers,

i have found myself in a sticky situation that i could use your help with.

when i rented my apartment it came with a parking spot in the back of the building.

but the parking spot was not noted on my lease.

a year after i signed my lease the building was sold to a new owner. hes not the greatest owner.

i do not have a car.

sometimes i rent cars, sometimes people loan me their cars, sometimes people come over and use my spot.

about six months ago a new tenant began parking in my spot.

because im a nice person and i usually dont have a car, i have been allowing them to use the spot.

some times when i have parked there they have seen me park there and they have said nothing, just like i said nothing when i saw them park there.

miss montreal is going away for 4-5 days, loaned me her car, and i would like to park in my spot, but the new tenants are there.

i had a feeling that they were under the impression, somehow, that the spot was theirs or "up for grabs" so i wrote a letter to my landlord asking him to notify them that the spot was mine and enclosed it with my rent check earlier this month.

i called him tonight and asked him if he got my letter. he mumbled. when i told him of the situation he said that because they have lived here for six months that they could lay a claim to the spot because i hadnt said anything about it.

even though i have lived here for three years and its been my spot the whole time.

even though ken layne lived here right before me and the spot was his.

even though our friend shira lived here right before him and the spot was hers.

as i have said, the spot was never specified on my lease.

my landlord is now saying that he doesnt recall that spot being anyone's in particular.

i said, when you bought the place you never took inventory of who had what spots? he said no.

interestingly though, a few months after he bought the place he allowed the new tenant to park behind my spot in a place that wouldnt really be considered a spot. i call this interesting because if he truly thought that no one had that spot, why wouldnt he had included that spot in her new lease?

i asked him this and he said that he specified in her lease "there is no parking available in the back". because, he said, all the spots were full.

ah ha! so he admits that my spot was being used! yes?

so heres my questions:

1. did i fuck up and gave away my spot because i waited "too long" to tell my landlord?

2. if the spot is not in my lease, but the woman who offered me the spot, the manager of the building at the time, will vouch for me that we had orally discussed the spot being mine - is that verification enough?

3. if her word isnt good enough, what about the word of some of my neighbors who know that spot to be mine?

4. are there any other ways that you know of where i can (re)claim my parking spot

if you would rather not answer this through the comments, feel free to write me at busblog at gmail dot com.

thank you so much,

tony

hello brooklyn + isabella + steph
 
hands are getting a tad better. i appreciate your patience as i recover. however the fist fight after the car chase didnt help. but thats the xbi for you.

heres one that got really nice comments when i posted it, but im not sure i like it now, although some of the lines are fun.

it's not carpal tunnel, it's not arthritius, the doc keeps saying it's tired hands, but it feels like spiders crawling up my arms.

i dont want to be at work, i dont want to be typing at all today, and i certainly dont want to be flying this helicopter, but chopper one needs to go up and my co-pilot is doing jury duty.

so heres something from the archives of the busblog to tide you over.

please accept my apologies
Friday, January 02, 2004

ive been at home for two and a half straight days now. this is everything that i always thought i wanted.

ive seen a decent film, i got to eat a spicy pork burrito chips salsa and flaming margueritas, im watching the lakers fight it out in seattle as gary payton returns to key arena without shaq who left in the first quarter, ive had sex with a hot chick (not pictured) with a fuckmepleasenow body.

somehow im bored.

would it be tacky to count the number of times i had sex this year?

some would say it would jinx it but as a Christian i wouldnt know about jinxes.

3

shes a good girl, this 'un. came over lookin good, was naked quick. doin stuff super quick. no shame. what goods shame?

im eating apple pie right out of the box. ive been eating like a pig lately.

i dont know where she is right now but it woulda been nice to have her around for some of the day at least.

she left as soon as she had to. it was raining. it was nice. it was nice not to have to worry about waking up. neither of us slept all that great. i held her. she said i had a twitchy moment where i musta been nightmaring. i told her i dont dream. she didnt believe me.
i told her i must have been outofbody spacetraveling through time and dimension.

she said, why would you go and do something like that while we're all warm and toasty on a rainy thursday night when theres no work on friday?

i said, to fight crime.

she said crime in another world?

i said, yes, and in a different dimension.

then we turned on the radio and had some more sex.

they told me when i was a kid that you hafta watch out for chicks who look good at night but look horrible in the morn. however i have the feeling that it is i who looks like a wreck in the am. my fro goes all over the place, blanket ends up in there, my stubble grows in thick, my eyes have bags, and my rum breath cant be nice.

she looked terrific. btw. so good i asked her if she didnt by accident find herself in the wrong hollywood bungalow last night. i said this to her voluptious and bronzend ass which i couldnt keep my hand offa.

she told me that shes gonna have a hard time finding another man who loves her ass as much as i do.

i told her she needs to stop dating those white dudes in the abecrombie commershes.

the english beat came on the radio. she was just finishing up her period. dont you love these details.

she came out of the bathroom and i had already put the condom on. she slipped under the comforter. we got at it. when we eventually changed positions, turned down the smoke machines, and lowered the harness she looked at my thing and screamed.

a lot of democrats are getting their undies in a bunch over the plans of Sinclair Broadcasting trying to force 62 of its stations to air an anti-kerry film called "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal" two weeks before the presidential elections

as if it's going to have even a teensy effect on the outcome of the voting.

the dems need to chill.

firstly, nobody is going to do more damage this year with a film than what michael moore did to the president with fahrenheit 9/11. nobody.

michael moore is a genius. i know because the dems have told me this repeatedly. and they will give him a second oscar to prove it.

but seriously, michael moore has been practicing his whole life to make f 9/11 and he was ready at the right place at the right time to do it. anything like it in its wake will seem like a cheap ripoff.

especially if what is in its wake are cheap ripoffs

minus the seven minutes of bush reading my pet goat.

minus the u.s. secret service asking questions to the film maker as to why he's filming the saudi embassy.

minus gw asking us to watch him hit the golf ball.

if sinclair wants to roll their film every night from tonight till the election let them.

these are swift boaters saying "this triple purple heart hero with a silver and a bronze star doesn't deserve his medals". do you know how lame that sounds? how bitter. how pathetic?

let them show their true colors.

give em enough rope to sing their sickly carrion song as they sink into the creepy wicked witch puddle of melted mud.

by protesting this film, you are being hypocritical and bitchy. glenn's right, this is a first amendment thing. dont be a wuss.

sure it's also an abuse of the "public" airwaves. what isn't? the fact that we still pretend that they are public airwaves is a joke in itself, so if you want to actually fix something, fix that bullshit.

but bros, Bush has done himself in more than any film could do kerry in. he's given enough reasons alone to anyone, dem or republican, to vote against him

if the dems can be derailed by a dumbass swiftboat talkie

despite bush's reasons for sending us into war
despite bush's failure to actually win the war
despite bush's failure to find obl
despite bush's failures with the economy
despite bush's inability to unify this country
despite bush's inability to admit any mistakes
despite bush's position on stem cell research
despite bush's military record cover up
despite five gop senators recently coming out against him
despite bush's ties to the saudi royal family
despite bush's lack of a popular vote last time
despite kerry's fine debating skillz and lack of bushie's

then the dems don't deserve to win

ever.

this should be the easiest race the dems could ever dream of.

let them have their sinclair broadcasting tee vee swift boat infomercial.

you're winning, stupids.
