CLEAR LIES: The Dirty, Deadly Truth about Bush's Assault on Planet Earth's Air

17-11-2003 22:59

While Bush is in UK schmoozing with the Queen (how could she do this to the British people - is she just as bad as Bush in her public indifference or what?), back home, his goons in Congress are taking advantage of the media distraction of the trip to try to ram through a catastrophic energy bill that will impact everyone, ultimately, on planet Earth.. His lies about Iraq are just the tip of his evil iceberg of lies.

TRASH OUR TOXIC TEXAN - By a Loyal American

17-11-2003 22:54

AS AN AMERICAN, I hope you "dis" our Toxic Texan, the fraudulent President George W. Bush. If you are a true friend of America, you will take your lead from the grandmother who scaled the fence at Buckingham Palace and the thousands who are marching for decency and against the Bush-Blair Axis of Evil. This is as important to Americans as it is to you. We are watching your nation and hope that you display your loyalty to us rather than to G.W. Bush.

GO GRANNY, GO GRANNY, GO GRANNY GO!

17-11-2003 22:52

The little old lady named Lindis Percy
(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
Has a pretty little flower bed of white gardenias
(Go, Granny, go, Granny, go Granny go)
But parked high up on a Buckingham gate
Is an upside down symbol against occupier hate

CHORUS:
And everybody's sayin' that there's nobody meaner
Than the little old lady named Lindis Percy
(She climbs real fast and she jumps real hard)
She's the terror of the Palace Guard

Is this in good taste? (Mc.Ranch comes to Palace...)

17-11-2003 22:48

oh no sorry, apparently according to Reuters it's a Jousting Tent! :-)
- a sort of "medieval marquee" that's been built to welcome Bush!

Reuters: "The two-domed tent, made of wood, poles and canvas, took three days to erect, said a policeman outside the palace.

"I wouldn't have it in my front room," said the policeman, understandably wishing to remain anonymous."

Letter from America - THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROTESTS!

17-11-2003 21:55

Seattle Police Attacking Americans at LEIU Protests, June 2, 2003
I am an American activist who is appalled by our President Bush, and am writing to support your Bush protests from America. I saw Bush on American TV last night. An announcer from the UK said he had never seen this much vehemence towards a U.S. president in the UK EVER. Bush's response was that he was HAPPY to go to a country where protest/free speech was openly embraced and allowed. The hypocrisy here is unbelievable.

For the life of Fatemeh

Fatemeh's cooking facilities
Fatemeh's misfortune was to be born in Khashem Zeneh in 1923 - a time when storm clouds were gathering beyond the horizon and Jewish immigration to Palestine was rising. Balfour had made his famous Declaration in 1917 and decisions were being taken in far away places
that would seal the fate of Bedouin tradition and culture in the Negev forever.
