... Nearly half the jury (four) were Americans and the President of the jury was an American (Quentin Tarantino). Let's hear it for a movie producer whose fortune comes from Kill Bill. You can bet that I'd trust this man's opinion any day. |

Have not heard anything honest out of them for many years... Cadel has been robbed! Prediction: Cadel Evans to CSC in 2005 |

We'll keep him out of the Tour, especially where Jan desperately needs helpers of his type, because he might crash. They are worried about his performing in what races after this? It is especially strange about Cadel when you consider that Vinokorov is essentially the same sort of rider as Cadel. I wonder what the real story is here? Do you suppose that Cadel was questioning why Ullrich was being made complete team leader while Zabel or perhaps he weren't being given the proper support? This **** could've come from Michael Moore. I turned on the news and it was a movie review. They showed a clip of President Bush saying something and while his lips were moving saying one thing the sound was some other quote. Then the reviewer said something to the effect - "See, the administratoin cuts its own throat." I suppose that anyone in the TV business feels compelled to worship Michael Moore because the French gave him kudos in Cannes. The French didn't give him kudos, but an international jury presided by an American with two other Americans and only one Frenchwoman (Emanuelle Béart). Benjo Maso Saw it last evening. Powerful film. One doesn't have to agree with the conclusions Moore draws from the facts presented, but there is no denying that some very serious questions are raised about the Bush Administration and the economic system that sends certain types of kids off to fight wars. The woman from Flint, Michigan who's son was killed when his Blackhawk went down is compelling. It was widely acknowledged that most of the soldiers in Vietnam came from poor families. The damning thing is that only 1 US Representative has a child serving in Iraq. Shades of CCR's Fortunate One ** I'm also glad he documented the Bush Admin's dealing with the Taliban for the construction of a natural gas pipeline through Afghanistan, pre-9/11, including a Taliban official's visit to the US to meet with oil executives in Texas covered at the time only by BBC news. (People might want to read the book "Forbidden Truth" for more detail on this one) Lastly, unless you've actually seen F. 9/11, try not to comment. The connections are disturbing, how foreign policy has been shaped to minime impact on Friends of the Bushs more so. That the leader of Afghanistan (Hamid Karzi) is a former consultant for Unocal, the company planning the pileline, is outrageous. Over the past two weeks I've been hearing how the opium production in Afghanistan is skyrocketing and little is being done about it. Could we assume there's a deal with certain warlords such as, you get your opium and we get our pipeline. All in all, F 9/11 is worth watching by everyone, if only to get them to consider if any charge, even one is true. W. was the guy who came in on the heels of a philanderer and promised honorable, transparent government, which we're certainly not getting. It's like Nixon all over again. ** Fortunate Son (1969) John C Fogarty Creedence Clearwater Revival Some folks are born made to wave the flag Ooh, they're red, white, and blue And when the band plays "Hail to the Chief" They point the cannon right at you It ain't me, it ain't me I ain't no senator's son It ain't me, it ain't me I ain't no fortunate one Some folks are born silver spoon in hand, Lord, dont they help themselves But when the tax man comes to the door, Lord the house looks like a rummage sale It ain't me, it ain't me I ain't no millionaire's son It ain't me, it ain't me I ain't no fortunate one Some folks inherit star spangled eyes, Ooh, they send you down to war And when you ask them, "How much should we give?" They only answer "More! More! More!" It ain't me, it ain't me I ain't no military son It ain't me, it ain't me I ain't no fortunate one It ain't me, it ain't me I ain't no fortunate one |

I think Rush Limbaugh was worth $25 million within 3 years of the start of his radio show. Not bad for a college dropout. |

I couldn't honestly say that either tell me the first thing about what kind of human he is or what political leanings he has. I could say the same thing about Ted Nugent, whom IIRC is an ardent republican. Wham bam, thank you ma'am, indeed. |

Not bad for a college dropout. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/ar...TICLE_ID=39012 ©*2004*WorldNetDaily.com Opponents of filmmaker Michael Moore are making the most of an endorsement his Bush-bashing film "Fahrenheit 9/11" received from terrorists affiliated with Hezbollah. The Guardian of London reported today organizations related to the Middle East-based terrorist network have offered to help promote the film in the United Arab Emirates. http://www.moorewatch.com/f911flyer.pdf http://www.drudgereport.com/rcmm.htm http://www.michaelmoorehatesamerica.com/ http://www.arcataeye.com/top/020312top02.shtml Moore dismissed criticism over his purchase of a million-dollar home. "I'm a millionaire, I'm a multi-millionaire," he proclaimed. "I'm filthy rich. You know why I'm a multi-millionaire? 'Cause multi-millions like what I do. That's pretty good, isn't it? There's millions that believe in what I do. Pretty cool, huh?" Moore seemed to embrace capitalistic Darwinism. "If the small businesses suck they'll be driven out of business," he said. "If they got a good restaurant, people will go there and eat. You know in my town the small businesses that everyone wanted to protect? They were the people that supported all the right-wing groups. They were the Republicans in the town, they were in the Kiwanis, the Chamber of Commerce - people that kept the town all white. The small hardware salesman, the small clothing store salespersons, Jesse the Barber who signed his name three different times on three different petitions to recall me from the school board. **** all these small businesses - **** 'em all! Bring in the chains. The small businesspeople are the rednecks that run the town and suppress the people. **** 'em all. That's how I feel." http://slate.msn.com/id/2102723/ "Fahrenheit 9/11 is a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness. It is also a spectacle of abject political cowardice masking itself as a demonstration of "dissenting" bravery. http://www.moorelies.com/ Moore shows endless shots of Bush and administration officials being made up for TV appearances, montages of Bush golfing and on vacation, a shot of Bush with his dog all accompanied by the sarcastic vocal commentary of Michael Moore. In Moore's world, liberal politicians never get made up or hair coiffed for TV appearances. In Moore's world, Bill Clinton never golfed, never vacationed for months on Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard, never had a dog named "Buddy" -- all while Slick Willie had the opportunity (several times) to have Osama Bin Laden handed over to him, but declined. http://fahrenheit_fact.blogspot.com/ [... Moore should have known] that prewar Iraq was ruled by a regime that had forced a sixth of its population into fearful exile, that hanged dissidents (real dissidents, not people like Susan Sontag and Tim Robbins) from meathooks and tortured them with blowtorches, and filled thousands of mass graves with the bodies of its massacred citizens. Yes, children played, women shopped and men sat in cafes while that stuff went on ‹ just as people did all those normal things in Somoza's Nicaragua, Duvalier's Haiti and for that matter Nazi Germany, and as they do just about everywhere, including in Iraq today. The records indicate that, despite his move to Alabama, Bush met his obligation to the Guard in the 1972-73 year. At that time, Guardsmen were awarded points based on the days they reported for duty each year. They were given 15 points just for being in the Guard, and were then required to accumulate a total of 50 points to satisfy the annual requirement. In his first four years of service, Bush piled up lots of points; he earned 253 points in his first year, 340 in his second, 137 in his third, and 112 in his fourth. For the year from May 1972 to May 1973, records show Bush earned 56 points, a much smaller total, but more than the minimum requirement (his service was measured on a May-to-May basis because he first joined the Guard in that month in 1968). http://www.massgraves.info/ |

IMO Emmanuel Beart is worth 10 French women |

Having never read or heard Ann Coulter, I read the first few paragraphs of a column by her several days ago. She writes with bias and venom, I couldn't say I agreed with anything she said while she warmed up her acid pen. It's funny to see such a play on words from her, but I guess every troll has it's moments. |
