Ofelia ruminates over her latest Dream Team
member, President Bill Clinton
The cat moved her kittens again. God only knows where they are now.
Remember that fox that was in our front yard a week or so ago? Saw it this morning: it's road pizza. The skull is ruined!!

Dick 'dick' Gephardt is offering support to the Bunnypants administration if it decides to use force to topple Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. "I share president Bush's resolve to confront this menace head-on," the pink-tutued dino, a likely presidential contender in 2004 *, blatted.
Drinky McDumbass "was right Saturday to say we are fighting a new war and will have to be ready to strike when necessary, not just deter," Gephardt said in the speech to the Council on Foreign Relations. "Now if you'll excuse me, I must douche before my appearance on Faux Nooze tonight."

Moments in Churchilliana
"When you read about the FBI, I want you to know that the FBI is changing its culture. The FBI prior to September the 11th was running down white-collar criminals and that's good, was worrying about spies and that's good. But now they've got a more important task and that is to prevent further attack. And, so, the FBI is changing. And they're doing a better job of communicating with the CIA. They're now sharing intelligence." - the Oaf of Office, Little Rock, 6/3/02.
"The attacks of Sept. 11 required a few hundred thousand dollars in the hands of a few dozen evil and diluted men. All of the chaos and suffering they caused came at much less than the cost of a single tank." - the Raving Nincompoop, West Point, 6/1/02.
Letter in the BuzzFlash Mailbag
"If Laura can raise all that money for abandoned pets, why doesn't she go down to Broward Co., Fl. and raise money so the abandoned kids don't have to sleep on an office floor or at a hotel? Is this still America?"
Chickensh!t Repukes' Pet (whore) Talk Shows
Or: You Have to Play MY Way, or I'm Going Home. Nyah, nyah. Phththththth.
Republicans have issues with TV news. Recall how congressional Republicans put down CNN as the Clinton News Network, and their preference for Fox. Lately, they've been boycotting CNN's Crossfire, claiming it bends too heavily Democratic. Now we learn that the White House has a thing for the Sunday talk shows. Namely: They like Tim Russert's Meet the Press and deplore the This Week duo of Cokie Roberts and Sam Donaldson. So much so that they steer officials to Russert, CBS's Face the Nation, and Tony Snow's show on Fox over the ABC feature. "Yeah, it's really Me the Press," jokes a Bushie of Russert, "but we know we'll get a fair shot." Explains another: "Sam's kind of ambush interview is dead." With Roberts leaving in November, administration types have been fanning rumors that Donaldson will be forced out as early as next month. "He's a dead man walking," smirks one. That is likely to leave This Week regular George Stephanopoulos in charge, something the White House is unsure about. "We fear he's watched Sam too long," says an administration official. But: "We'll see."

Will Lapdog Media Continue to Roll Over?
Squinty McSquirtypants' mocking of "inter-continental" NBC reporter David Gregory, who spoke French at a Paris news conference, indicates a shift in press strategy. The advice of spokes-tool Ari "the liar" Fleischer had been to stay cool with the media at all costs. But others have urged Fleischer to give back to reporters as good as he gets. "We need to take them on," says an adviser. "We can play 'gotcha,' too."
Sigh...
Maybe those talking cows in Gary Larson's Far Side comics aren't so far-fetched. Enter Preznit Dumbass and his longhorn cow, Ofelia. According to her page on the White House Web site, Ofelia spends her days "grazing and daydreaming" about "heroes who made a significant contribution to America through their dreams, character traits, and choices." On her "Dream Team" are luminaries such as Dr. Seuss, Lou Gehrig, and Sam Adams - the patriot, not the beer. From USNews.
Unbelievable. Even more unbelievably, the public's buying it.
Egyptian intelligence warned American officials about a week before Sept. 11 that Osama bin Laden's network was in the advance stages of executing a significant operation against an American target, President Hosni Mubarak said in an interview on Sunday.
"The Egyptians gave us some threat information, earlier in 2001, of possible attacks against U.S. or Egyptian interests," a 'senior WH intelligence official' said. "There was nothing about hijackings, nothing about an attack inside the U.S. It did not come in the days before 9/11."
Excuse me??? With all those reports coming in? What were you investigating, how far you could light each other's farts?

"Dumb Quixote"
"How did he ever get to be president?" asked a French reporter watching Dumbya Bush in a joint press conference with the president of France, Jacques Chirac, in the splendor of the Elysee Palace last week.
"Just like that," was the appropriate answer from an American reporter. "That's the fraternity boy we covered in the 2000 campaign," said the American reporter. Bush was slow, forgetful, smirky and downright nasty -- as he often was as a candidate.
When George of the Bungle could not put together an answer to a complicated question, the Texan, as they like to call him here, smiled and said: "That's what happens when you're over 55." He turned to Chirac and said, "You know what I mean?" Chirac, who is 69 years old, did not seem amused at all.

'I need those 24 hours anyway - my pink tutu is at the drycleaners'
The White House refused yesterday to supply Sen. Joe Lieberman with copies of Enron-related documents he has subpoenaed, but allowed his staff to come over and take a look at some of them.
Aides to Lieberman said the e-mail copies and other documents that were made available did not come close to complying with the subpoena, and said the restrictions imposed by the administration suggested an effort to stall.
Lieberman extended the deadline yesterday by 24 hours at the request of the committee's ranking minority member, Sen. Fred Thompson (R-Tenn.). Kiss-kiss!

The bushmoonies are celebrating Jefferson Davis's birthday here. Yet if I killed them, I would be the one to go to jail.
