FAQ

A collection of insightful ruminations, reflections, and rants on the events of the day (with the exception of the weekend). We'll collect a week's worth here and then archive them. Come visit each weekday to see what's pushing Barbara's buttons.

August 8, 2003

What a difference a generation makes! I remember President Jimmy Carter with Menachem Begin and Anwar al-Sadat, when peace was perceived as the only way to solve the problems in the Middle-East and when guns, bombs, and ammunition were put away and negotiations began. Wiser men, saner times, and an intelligent approach to the problems of the world.

You just have to know that Arnold has Karl's seal of approval, especially after all the 24 hour ad nauseum mainstream media positive reporting. It's called circling the wagons to terminate the enemy. Don't think for one minute Schwarzenegger would have this kind of support if Karl had given a thumbs down or had decided to really stay out of this race. I guess Karl believes this is another lame-in-the-brain robot he can use the remote to control.

If it worked in California, then I'm sure it could work nationwide. Why not hold those accountable who are really responsible for the chaos and confusion, the war and destruction, the lies and the cheating, tax cuts for the rich, unemployment and an economy in the pits. RECALL BUSH AND CHENEY!

August 7, 2003

Don't think for one minute that Dumbya is protecting the Saudis! He is protecting his own interests. The money some people in this country are making from their associations with the Saudis is astronomical and that is the primary reason for covering any negative reports. If it weren't the money, then the Saudis would be fodder for political gain by those in this administration. Loyalty is spelled MONEY these days in Washington!

* * *

I cannot fathom Dumbya as part of God's Divine Plan. Somehow, I cannot see God sanctioning anyone who would order a war based on lies, that kills innocents. Somehow, I don't believe God would smile on anyone who would take the food out of little children's mouths, or the medicine from senior citizens, to put it into the pockets of the rich. How can anyone believe that God would willfully support ruining the earth He gave to humanity with such reverence and humility. No matter how hard the Republicans try, they cannot justify their sins as part of God's plan.

August 6, 2003

According to an AP report the marines dropped "Mark 77 firebombs" in Iraq. Unfortunately, there were casualties. It seems that the only Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq were imports. While the military brass says Mark 77 firebombs are not Napalm, the effects are the same on human beings -- horrendous death by fire.

Ignoring the pre 9-11 intelligence warnings qualifies for Guilty by Ignorance! If the CEO of a company ignores warnings that have dire consequences for his business then that CEO is fired for negligence and poor management. The same standard should be applied to thieves in high office. The people of America should demand this administration and their leader be fired, 3000 Americans lost their lives because of their negligence and total mismanagement.

August 5, 2003

Who do you chose to believe: the Office of Disinformation, aka the White House, or the grunts, the soldiers on the front lines fighting a dirty war for an imbecile? My choice is overwhelmingly the soldiers! They will tell the truth about the conditions they have to endure, while those steadfast conservative pundits, aka Bob Novak, blow off the danger our troops face as "the usual complaining and griping" and "they volunteered." When death is staring you in the face, the truth is what comes up and out! Shame on the chickenhawks of America for defaming and debasing our military men and women.

* * *

If you thought there wasn't a need to fully investigate judicial appointees, then take a look at ABC's coverage of a certain immigration judge, Thomas Ragno. Then you'll know exactly why these people should be fully vetted.

* * *

When the going gets tough or Dumbya gets bored, then Dumbya goes AWOL. It is ludicrous for Bush to take a month-long vacation at the Texas ranch when our troops are dying in Iraq. Lolling around in an air-conditioned mansion for a "rest" while the troops are fighting dust, sand, heat, bullets, and death, in a war created on lies, is an abomination. Karl can dress him up, fly him around, and show him off, but Dumbya is a misfit -- always has been a misfit and no amount of propaganda can make him a man.

August 4, 2003

If this were a movie, it would surpass "Glitter" for all time worst. Unfortunately, it's real life and people are dying as a result of the poor performance from Bush and his administration. Their bait and switch maneuvers have occurred so often it's now predictable even by the least of us. An August vacation is just another opportunity for Dumbya to hide out and hope the truth fades away into the dog days of summer. America is truly facing a crisis, and it's name again is Bush!

* * *

Just what America needs, an incompetent liar to replace Colin Powell! The lies coming from this administration are becoming a way of life for America and it does nothing to protect Americans. It was one thing for us to expect little white lies to protect National security, or prove a point, but the whoppers coming from Dumbya are killing people and puts us all in danger. Newt Gingrich in the State Department would be like putting a pedophile priest in charge of an all-boys orphanage. Now more than ever it's time for a regime change.
