Ding Dong Ashcroft's gone, the ding dong's gone!
Ashcroft resigned. Maybe Bush can find someone worse? Nahhhhh. Hopefully he'll end the war on porn as a trade off to reg'lar republicans.

Let the boobies soar, Like they've never soared before.
From rocky coast to golden shore, let the mighty boobies soar.
That just made me think of a great compromise. From now on monuments to the ten commandments can be placed at federal court houses, as long as they include huge naked women holding them, or fellating moses while he carries them.
If there is a question of propriety, the women can always be said to represent justice, which we can signify by making sure she is blindfolded.
Yes, I will agree to that.

ashcroft out, new asshat in...
Apparently Bush's top choice for the new Attorney General, Alberto Gonzalez, is more moderate than Ashcroft. He accepts abortion and affirmative action.
However he's been working as Bush's personal counsel for years and was involved not only with Enron, but as US counsel was the guy that called Geneva Conventions antiquated. Yes it was his memos which helped set the stages for Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib, by stating that if potential information is valuable enough legal rights (not to mention our humanity) should go by the way side.
Oh yeah and he also helped suppress the Cheney's energy task force documents.
Isn't their something drastically wrong with putting what is essentially one's personal defense attorney in charge of leading the prosecuting office of the Justice Department? Guess we won't ever have to worry about Cheney or Bush getting into any trouble.
Gotta make a note to myself to get buddybuddy with either Cheney or Bush asap.

Jerry Falwell annouced today the rebirth of the Moral Majority to specifically work towards a Fundamentalist President for 2008.
I'm not sure whether to worry that they might succeed, or that he doesn't consider Bush dogmatic enough to be a fundamentalist president right now.

Just remember pink, if it wasn't Clinton's fault (see how that debt increased right after Clinton left? It had to be Clinton's fault) it is now John Kerry's fault.
The emperor's clothes are just fine thank you.

"Gook" is a name for comi enemy soliders, and not for villigers who have no choice
From merriam-webster...
Main Entry: 1gook
Pronunciation: 'gk
Function: noun
Etymology: origin unknown
usually disparaging : a nonwhite or non-American person; specifically : ASIAN
Besides, if you really wanted to be accurate you probably should have called them chinks, then we'd be able to know you weren't talking about nips, slopes, or charley which are all different forms of gooks.
I mean that is if you really want to go with that "jesusfreak" persona you are currently developing.

Whoop, I edited mine a bit while you posted this.
I don't think he intended the term as disparaging
Actually I think he did. Gook is not used like aussie or scot... at least nowhere that I've been in the US.
I would refer to a Chinese Restaurant as a 'Chinkie'
Oh my, mention that to a waiter in Chicago and you might get cream of sum yung guy for free in your order.
I've met blacks who refer to themselves as 'niggers' and Jews you refer to themselves as 'yids'
This is true, but then for them it is self-referential and turning the term on its head. And there are whites that use it too, and don't get slammed, but then it is in how they use it... my nigger, versus hey nigger.
He was obviously trying to use a denigrating term for a bunch of people whose asses we were going to kick.
