NEAL'S OUT
Neal seems to have disappeared. Don't worry, the staff has pulled together
some items of interest. Neal should be back Monday.
SCOOTER LIBBY GOES TO COURT
Former Vice President Cheney's Chief of Staff Scooter Libby was arraigned in
court yesterday....and with that, the issue of his indictment became a dead one
for Democrats. Libby waived his right to a speedy trial and his next court date
is in February. That's months away...so much for the left turning this into the
next Watergate.
Libby also hired some big guns...including the lawyer that got Mike Espy off in
the 90's when he was indicted. They're going to demand to see reporter's notes
and all of the evidence against Libby just as soon as they get security
clearances. This should be fun. Naturally, he pleaded not guilty. The defense
will be that Libby simply recalled events differently than did the reporters
being used against him.
He stands a good chance of walking. Once that jury is seated, they're going to
realize that they don't remember everybody they talked to and what was said two
years ago. How can they send Libby off to prison for the same thing? The last
time I checked, having a faulty memory was not a crime.
If Libby is acquitted next year, Cheney should rehire him. The left would go
nuts!
CUTTING OFF THEIR DIGITS
A quick mention this morning goes to the mayor of Las Vegas. We've all seen
graffiti in the cities....overpasses and bridges built with taxpayer dollars,
only to be defaced by some teenage waste of oxygen with a spray can. The city
tries to remove it, paint over it, whatever....but it never looks the same.
Enter Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman. He's getting tired of the graffiti in his
town.
Speaking into a TV camera, he said "In the old days in France, they had
beheading of people who commit heinous crimes. You know, we have a beautiful
highway landscaping redevelopment in our downtown. We have desert tortoises and
beautiful paintings of flora and fauna. These punks come along and deface it.
I'm saying maybe you put them on TV and cut off a thumb. That may be the right
thing to do." Amen!
Then, he also went a bit further...saying whippings or canings should be brought
back for kids who get into trouble...to set an example. Not a bad
idea...perhaps it would knock some sense into them. Of course, all of this will
never happen...with parents who believe their babies can do no wrong and the
ACLU and race pimps and such out there.
But it's a nice idea. Oh, and Goodman is a Democrat. There may be hope for
that party yet.
CHURNING OUT LEFTISTS
If you are sending your child to a government school for their daily
programming, chances are overwhelming that your bundle of joy is going to wind
up becoming a liberal Democrat. Today, courtesy of The Los Angeles Unified
School District, we're going to show you how it's done.
There was a Bush-bashing rally being held in Los Angeles the other day. It was
called "The World Can't Wait – Drive Out the Bush Regime." Eager for as many
people to attend as possible, the school district allowed 800 high school
students from 10 schools to
walk right out of class to attend. No word if they
were given extra credit for their participation.
On top of that, adult staff were supplied to accompany them, and buses were
provided for their return. That's right...taxpayer money being spent for the
whole thing. Now stop and ask yourself something for a minute...suppose an
anti-Hillary Clinton rally were being held. Would the same courtesy be
extended? Of course not. The students wouldn't even be given the time of day
to attend.
But because it was an event protesting the evil George Bush....the liberal,
leftist, bedwetting school administration jumped right on board. Those who send
their children off to be indoctrinated in government schools should take note.

REDNECK SCRAP BOOK
You know what would make this
one perfect? If the camper was being held on by duct tape. Oh well, I guess
we can't have everything. Where would we put it? More in the
Redneck Scrap Book.
READING ASSIGNMENTS
Bad news for Al Franken....a new book says he doesn't practice what he preaches.
The allegation: Al has hired 112 people over the years.....and only one was
black. So much for diversity! Oh, and don't forget...Michael
Moore has owned stock in Halliburton.
The TSA is is finally offering their registered traveler program...starting June
20.
Submit to a background check, pay $79...and you get to skate through airport
checkpoints. Hallelujah!
The new media obsession.....George Bush's poll numbers. We're told
they're at the lowest ever...but what does that really mean? He's going to
lose the next election? Wait...he's a lame duck...amazing!
Fired CBS journalist Gunga Dan Rather is warning people about the new media...saying
it's largely people with an agenda. That's what you were doing for the past
several decades, Dan.
Looks like some in the Republican Party are finally going to do something about
illegal aliens. Some ideas include ending birthright citizenship and
building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. Great idea!
Somebody else agrees that the president's tax reform commission was a complete
disaster....here's
an op-ed from none other than Tom DeLay.
Deroy Murdock compares the heroics of Rosa Parks to today's "civil rights
activists" and allies in the Democratic Party. The results: no comparison.
CBS has been comparing George Bush to Richard Nixon...as the left's Watergate
template takes hold.
The Media Research Center reports on their slanted polls.
Democrats continue to be disappointed at last week's announcement of the Libby
indictment. Without Rove being charged, it was like a Christmas morning with no
gifts under the tree.
Mona Charen explains.
The left is so blinded by their hatred for George Bush that they are unwilling
to recognize the common enemies of the United States.
David Limbaugh says the Democrats are clueless. |
