Southern N.J. GOP Too Busy For Bush
Running For Cover
Bush plans to visit New Jersey to help raise money for the state's cash-strapped and victory-starved Republican Party. If southern New Jersey Republicans are any indication, though, the welcoming party will be rather small.....here

Local Goodness
A Parcel At A Time
Meet Albert Joerger, Since starting the Sarasota Conservation Foundation in 2003, Joerger has parlayed such small successes into a land conservation behemoth. "The engine behind the foundation was this idea of pocket parks, of finding space for people and wildlife on the water," Joerger said. He describes it as "an Emerald Necklace" stretching along the waterfront from Tampa Bay to Pine Island in Lee County. Public spaces on the water are vital to the foundation's mission, largely because Joerger believes the waterfront is for everyone, not just those who can afford to buy it......more
Bumper Stickers
And Freedom Of Speech
Jan Wesner Of The St. Pete Times writes, So I'm driving up I-75 the other day (northbound coming onto the interstate from Big Bend Road, for those who live around here) and I see this bumper sticker on the back of the car in front of me: "War is terrorism with a bigger budget." I sped up enough to get right beside the twenty-something woman in the driver's seat. I considered honking my horn and rolling down my window and giving her the middle finger. I probably would have, except for the fact that I was going 80 miles an hour and my phone started ringing.
Ms. Wesner, what you should of done is chase her down and tear that sticker off that bumper once she stopped. The nerve of that young woman having a sticker on her car that you dont agree with. its Un-American. before you try this i would read......this....or you can do what i do when i see a Bush or Pro War sticker on a bumper. i chase them down, pull up beside them, and give them my "What The Fuck Are You Thinking" look.

April 5, 2006
Here are three questions comparing Liberals and Conservatives
1. During the 2004 elections, which car was more likely to be “keyed,” i.e., deliberately scratched — a car with a “John Kerry” bumper sticker in an overwhelmingly conservative area, or a car with a “George W. Bush” sticker in an overwhelmingly liberal area?
2. When speaking at colleges, do right-wing or left-wing speakers need and receive police protection?
3. In a debate between a right-wing and a left-wing speaker before an audience equally divided between left and right, which audience group is more likely to boo and hiss at the speaker with whom it disagrees — the liberal or the conservative?...............more

They have given George Bush a pass and control over the lives of millions of Iraqis....with no checks and balances. They have already started the edging into Sadr City, where there are two million people. Fallujah was only about 400,000. Look what a mess we made there. He can bomb them, send rockets, missiles. And he has a hundred billion dollars to do it with.....here

Lets bring back the draft, lets let this war reach suburbia. Maybe then The Mall and American Idle won't seem that important anymore. 5 Memorial Days later, and the killing goes on. Is there no hope?

That We All Take Responsibility For The Country We Love
And the brave men and women who protect us. As citizens, let’s volunteer in support of our troops, and offer our service to honor theirs. As Americans, let’s take a moment to join in prayer for our troops. And as patriots, let’s gather together this weekend and make our voices heard. It’s up to us. If we are loud enough, and clear enough, we can end this war. Because it really is possible to stop a president who believes he can do no wrong—it just takes people with the courage to do what’s right..........You can start here

We Could Have Stop The Killing, But We Didn't

Howard Dean defended the party's handling of the Iraq funding bill Thursday amid criticism from the left that congressional leaders caved in to President Bush over the war.
