Wow. I can’t begin to understand how someone’s interest in financial gain could so completely outweight their interest in the human artistic record. I can’t imagine that there is a person so cold-hearted in the world as to actually buy this painting from the thieves who took it. I imagine it’s ransom they’re after. Shitheads. I hope they get cold sores.

The Cheneys (he and she) have weighed in on John Kerrys recent remarks to a group of minority journalists that
“I believe I can fight a more effective, more thoughtful, more strategic, more proactive, more sensitive war on terror that reaches out to other nations and brings them to our side.”
She said it sounded foolish, and he said that “The men who beheaded Daniel Pearl and Paul Johnson will not be impressed by our sensitivity.”
With all due respect to the Vice-President (ah, who the fuck am I kidding, I’ve got no respect at all for that shit-head), Senator Kerry was not suggesting - as is patently obvious to anyone with half a brain reading the quote - that we behave toward al-Qaeda with more sensitivity. What Senator Kerry said - what his actual words said - was that if we act with more sensitivity toward the views and concerns of other potential allies (France and Germany leap to mind), then we will have a better understanding of the problem, a better understanding of how to deal with it, and some fucking friends left in the world no matter what happens. I mean just, duh.
Or as Kerry’s spokesman said:
“‘If you continue with a foreign policy when you’re arrogant, it makes it harder to hunt down terrorists,’ Singer said. ‘Arrogance leaves us isolated.’”
Can we just fast forward to November and vote these criminals out of office? Now?

This is what Retired Gen. Tommy Franks just said about Bush’s idiotic “Mission Accomplished” speech back in May of 2003.
“That’s my fault, that George W. Bush said what he said on the first of May of last year, just because I asked him to,” said Franks, former commander of forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Does that make any of you feel better? I know it does me. “Just because I asked him to,” he says. Brings something to mind about friends and jumping off bridges.

Bill Gates in an interview with The Associated Press on Aug. 6th regarding Windows XP Service Pack 2:
“If we weren’t viewing this as such a key priority, then we wouldn’t be giving it away as a free thing,”
I mean really. The punk has spent the last ten years or so beating the shit out of the entire concept of Open Source software (free), and this is what he says about the latest Windows update? What a shitbag.
