Bush relatives "Really, really embarrassed" to be related to the War Chimp!
Too funny! According to this Boston Globe article - Bushler can't even carry his own family!

1. Did you watch 20/20...
Although I am not a big fan of the show. They had a great piece with Neil's xwife. It was great as to what she described about what goes on inside the * family.

2. Uh-oh, looks like somebody's going to...
...get crossed off the Christmas card list this year.

Seriously, it take a fair amount of courage to take a public stand against a relative. Most of us would probably hold our tongues to "keep peace in the family." Good for them!

5. If my name was Bush
I would have it legally changed. No way I could live with myself if I shared genes with * or his Quaker Oats mother or Poppy or Hitler's buddy, Prescott.

16. funny you should ask
I was in the supermarket yesterday and they had a wire bin full of them at 75% off. I asked the manager why the markdown and he shrugged and said, "They're just not selling."

19. Of course people aren't buying Bush beans
They want felafel.

It is ever so much sexier.

I mean, what can you do with a can of beans?

Guess I best pose that question to an expert: Bill o'Reilly

21. "I mean, what can you do with a can of beans? "

Fart in the general direction of the WH?

Or would all of us eating Bush beans be considered a terrorist activity?

23.  "I'm voting for John Kerry because I'm a Christian.
I know that my second cousin, George Bush, claims that he is the anointed leader of the American people and that God told him to run for office. I believe he may even believe that. I don't."

"My Christian faith leads me to a concern for the poor and the marginalized, yet Bush's actions in office have repeatedly cut funding for health care, aid to failing schools, jobs programs, after school programs, Head Start, and many more services that provide real help and hope to those living in poverty. Under the Bush administration, over a million additional people have dropped below the poverty line. 1.2 million more have gone into "deep poverty," which is one-half the $18,810 for a family of four that defines "poverty."

"My Christian faith leads me to a concern for the health and welfare of all of God's people, yet 45 million people in this country have no health insurance. The Bush administration, working hard to protect the interests of large, rich insurance companies, has done nothing to address the real health care crisis.

"My Christian faith tells me the peacemakers are the blessed ones, yet George Bush wants to resurrect the Crusades, one of the most shameful experiences in Christian history. I fail to understand how lying to the people of the United States about any of the many justifications they have used for going to war in Iraq can be considered in any way, shape, or form a remotely Christian activity. Yes, Jesus once said, "I come not to bring peace, but a sword." He was talking about liberating his OWN people from within, not invading an oil-rich country out of purely selfish motives, then claiming it was for the liberation of others. The only true liberation comes when the oppressed claim it for themselves. This is something George Bush and his Imperialist cabal will never understand.
.
.
.

"My Christian faith is not looking for a new Messiah named George Bush. I am, however, looking for a leader. I believe that leader's name is John Kerry."

-- Jeanny House (Wisconsin)
