Bush Might End Up Thrown Out of the Ballgame!!
I was very pleased to see that this a.m. the news media is still covering the outrage over Bush's 9/11 images in his new ads just as he is releasing them (beats me how the greatest screw up on a presidential watch is somehow his greatest moment!). But then came the jobs report.

Only 21,000 jobs were created in Feb. and the Jan. figure revised down to 97,000. This as Bush is launching his campaign and touting his tax breaks as the miracle workers. It also makes his ads look stupid (i.e., the line about he knows just where he wants to take the country---where??-to the poor house?).

But I'm most satisfied with something else. The media has been trumpeting the arrival of the great one, patiently waiting on the sidelines and now ready to break open a war chest that they insist will destroy any Dem. The game began a few days ago. Wonder Boy got hit in the mouth with the first pitch. No wonder Aschcroft was just taken to the hospital with a stomach ache----is the fear of losing suddenly hitting home?? I so want Kerry and the Dems to pounch on absolutely everything that comes out of this White House Rove campaign. Lord knows we have ammo to blow in their face at every turn. Never, never let up.

4. I don't know about the booze but
I had the same thing happen to me about 15 years ago. The pain is indescribable! And I don't drink. Surgery took care of it. The pain is so great I would rather go through labor pains!

5. As far as Kerry pouncing
on bush* mistakes, he needs to hire Molly Ivins. She has a nice list. Rod Paige saying teachers union is like terrorist organisation,saying 500 billion deficit is caused by war, when cost of war is'nt even included in budget,trying to redefine hamburger flipping,375,000 people exhausted unemployment benefits. highest ever.On and on and on.There is an inexhaustible source.

6. Don't forget that the jobs that.........
WERE created were mostly in government. Just yesterday bushie said of Kerry: he'll raise your taxes and expand the Federal government! He better start reading the papers cause it will tell him that under his "leadership" the government has grown by 26%, the largest under any president! AND under Clinton, the Federal government actually decreased.

7. Hope Kerry Visits DU

I am so impressed with the creative minds here at DU.
If the Kerry Campaign could read the posts at DU everyday they would get some real ideas on how to attack these thugs .

9. Gall bladder -uh-huh, sure...
"Pretzel logic" to allude to another health crisis we all experienced 'together'.

If it were gall bladder induced pancreatitis, they would have said that he was having a gall bladder attack. That sounds benign. They probably would not have alluded to the pancreas - it would be unnecessary. That's how they spin things. My feeling is that it's garden-variety substance-induced pancreatitis.

My sentiment is - it looks and sounds like a duck. when Clinton fell and broke his leg, he was probably drunk at Greg Norman's house, the other guy choked on a pretzel for the same reason, and this guy...

10. welcome to DU!
yes, it's not fun watching the country suffer, but if it wakes some people up enough to get off their butts and vote, then I have to grimly applaud this bad news. We can't do anything to fix these problems until the Shrub and his pals are gone. If we have to hit rock bottom to do it, so be it.

Rule of Law!
