How many members of the Republican Party does it take to change a light bulb?
Answer: TEN...
1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed,
2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb
needs to be changed,
3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb,
4. One to tell the nations of the world that they are either for
changing the light bulb or for eternal darkness,
5. One to give a billion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton for the
new light bulb,
6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing
on a step ladder under the banner "Bulb Accomplished" ,
7. One administration insider to resign and in detail reveal how Bush
was literally "in the dark" the whole time,
8. One to viciously smear #7,
9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how John McCain
has had a strong light bulb-changing policy all along,
10. And finally, one to confuse Americans about the difference between
screwing a light bulb and screwing the country.

This is too funny NOT to be posted Brasscheck TV
President Bush will seek to comfort victims of his presidency as they try to make sense of the destruction he has caused.
Was the Bush Administration a failure?
It was if you're an American citizen.On the other hand, if you're a member of the ever-burgeoning white collar criminal class, the Bush Administration ushered in a kind of new Golden Age.
Michael Parenti is barely able to scratch the surface as he lists the human vermin that triumphed on the Age of Bush, but he hit a lot of the highlights.
Was the administration a failure?
Not at all. It accomplished just about everything it set out to do.
Worst of all, or best of all depending on what side of the devastation you're on, there's no indication that anything substantial is going to change with the next president.

Light and wonderful reading
If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago you would have $49.00 left.
With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.
With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.
But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have $214.00 cash.
Where's the beer!!!
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.
It's called the 401-Keg
A recent study found the average American walks about 900 miles a year.
Another study found Americans drink, on the average, 22 gallons of=2 0 alcohol a year. That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

- Modern Civics -
It was the first day of a school in USA and a new Indian student named Chandrasekhar Subramanian entered the fourth grade.
The teacher said, 'Let's begin by reviewing some American History.
Who said 'Give me Liberty, or give me Death'?
She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Chandrasekhar, who had his hand up:
'Patrick Henry, 1775' he said.
'Very good!'
Who said 'Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth?'
Again, no response except from Chandrasekhar.
'Abraham Lincoln, 1863' said Chandrasekhar.
The teacher snapped at the class, 'Class, you should be ashamed.
Chandrasekhar, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do.'
She heard a loud whisper: 'F**k the Indians,'
'Who said that?' she demanded. Chandrasekhar put his hand up.
'General Custer, 1862.'
At that point, a student in the back said, 'I'm gonna puke.'
The teacher glares around and asks 'All right! Now, who said that?'
Again, Chandrasekhar says, 'George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister,1991.'
Now furious, another student yells, 'Oh yeah? Suck this!'
Chandrasekhar jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher, 'Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!'
Now with almost mob hysteria someone said 'You little shit. If you say anything else, I'll kill you.'
Chandrasekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, ' Michael Jackson to the child witnesses testifying against him - 2004.'
The teacher fainted. And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor,someone said, 'Oh sh*t, we're f**ked!'
And Chandrasekhar said quietly,
'I think it was George Bush, Iraq, 2007.'

Good article from Stealth Lesbian !! Hilarious !
Reality Shows We Would Most Like To See
How about Larry King having this interview...From the Christian "Democratic" party of Germany in 1938 to today, the Bush family are Christian fascists.
Directed by the Council for National Policy which is laced with right wing "Christian" fundamentalists and a Supreme Court of fundamentalist Opus Dei, the Bush administration is not a secular govt.
The Pope T-Shirts ...CNN's "In the Money" could have done a special on the money making projects around Pope Benedict's regular pre-election visit. How much money did they tally in Pope memorabilia. How did that compare to former Popes?
.
All the while we stumble along, no habeas corpus, a criminally complicit congress and news media, and in Canada government after government is given a free pass as they sell our country further down the drain to a global gulag of mulinationals, gradually enslaving the world. This is not free enterprise, it is a global gulag of prisons using the cheapest labor from the around the world and deliberately creating strife within local markets. We used to break up monopolies and
monster companies who used predatory action on the public.
It is time we took back Canada and the USA before we are numbers in a faceless, nameless gulag of self-appointed greedy bastards who call themselves "elite."
We can start by hosting some national polls seeing how many people want to nationalize oil?
How many want to nationalize banks?
When both of these markets have turned on their own countries and behaved like thugs and dead enders, they need to be regulated. Further these are national resources and should never have been privatized for the benefit of the few over the many.
If we are to be free we must live free, regulate business and keep large firms from becoming
these predatory, devoid of conscience entities. It would be something to have national media expose the criminals in the White House. Now, however there is U-Tube and national media can either keep up or get lost.
The media that has kept the promise that TV once offered and sadly never did deliver, is U-Tube, where the news is fresh, real and often accompanied by video or some well researched links, all more than what we get on any given day from the tired, treasonous distraction
American TV has become.

FREE! MUST HAVE ITEM!!
The Hillary Deathwatch WidgetEmbed Clinton's sinking ship on your blog, iGoogle, or Facebook page.
Posted Friday, April 4, 2008, at 5:42 PM ET
Whether or not she realizes it, Hillary Clinton is on a slow march to her political doom. She's behind in the popular vote and has fewer pledged delegates and primary victories than Obama; she's had only one superdelegate endorse her since March 4; and she's losing ground to Obama in Pennsylvania polls at an alarming rate.
Slate started a Hillary Deathwatch last week, and her chances of winning the nomination have already dropped by more than three points. Thanks to our staff of tech wizards, you can now take Hillary's sinking ship outside of the Slate bubble and spread it to the far corners of the Internet. Just click the "get & share" button on the widget below and select the type of site in which you want to embed the widget. (There's a shortcut for Facebook users here.)
We'll update the widget with new content and fresh odds of survival every day. Clicking on "Hillary Clinton Deathwatch" will take you to that day's article.

The war on Iraq is like ..
a group of strangers in a vehicle moving forward on the road of life
stop to reflect on where they might visit next and to refuel.
and then
one of the passengers fires on the one that was pumping
the gas,
because he wanted to be the one to pump the gas.

Repost: How markets really work
With things now SO apparent, I did feel that a repost of this video would be a great idea!!
Enjoy! [Don't go spitting your coffee all over your screen as you watch]
How the markets really work
The Brasscheck TV submitter says:
Another example of humor that is deadly accurate.
I worked on Wall Street for a few years, elbow to elbow with "top" investment bankers.
It was one big casino with the saps in pensions funds and savings and loans (and us) being used to finance the game and cover the losses.

Respect My Authoritah
The above "Obey Spray" illustration is one of a series of Madvertisements (also featuring products such as "Empowermints" and conditions such as "Excessive Patriotism Disorder") by media tigress Carly Stasko, originally published in the January/February 2002 issue of This Magazine. Look familiar? Says Stasko of the "Obay" campaign for Ontario colleges, they're "so similar that I'm wondering if we just had the same idea or if they have riffed off of my original." (We think it's probably the former, but it wouldn't at all surprise us if someone at Smith Roberts had a subscription to This and has been storing the Madvertisements in his or her unconscious for years.) The photo, by the way, is a young Dave Meslin.

Cable cut humour
What’s Cutting the Cables, Cont.
Posted by Ben Worthen
BizTech readers are really interested in global communications – or a good conspiracy theory.
As today’s Journal explains, under-sea fiber-optic cables are what makes globalization possible. Satellites, the only other option for passing data between continents, are much more expensive to operate and have less capacity than cables. The irony of undersea cable is that it doesn’t make money for the companies that operate it, Stephan Beckert, a research director at TeleGeography, a telecommunications-industry consulting firm, told us the other day. Yet, demand keeps rising, so companies keep laying more and more.
Several of these cables have been cut over the last week, disrupting Internet connectivity in some countries in the Middle East and Asia. And this has got the conspiracy theorists working overtime. There’s some disagreement over how many cables have been cut: Beckert says it’s three; most news reports put it at four or five; this guy says it’s at least nine (although he’s also written books about alien-inhabited undersea bases, which we suppose also explains how the cables are getting cut.)
The other day we wrote that the most likely explanation was an errant boat anchor. And, indeed, we’ve just received word that Flag Telecom, which operates the cable that was cut between Dubai and Oman, found an abandoned five-ton anchor at the scene. We did allow that there was a chance – albeit slight – that the cables were cut by sharks with laser beams on their heads. But by and large, our goal was to persuade people to take off the tinfoil.
That didn’t stop BizTech readers from contributing conspiracy theories of their own. There were some obvious ones – the CIA, Mossad, Islamic terrorists – and some that we hadn’t thought of — Godzilla, Gamera and the monster from Cloverfield. Our favorite theory: “The citizens of Atlantis are pissed off about pollution, overfishing, and destruction of undersea habitat, and they aren’t going to take it any more!”
Have a peek, if you've time on your hands, the comments are priceless

Best .. . ever ... blonde joke!!
Her boyfriend asks, 'What is it supposed to be when it's finished?'
The blonde says, 'According to the picture on the box, it's a rooster.'
Her boyfriend decides to go over and help with the puzzle.
She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table.
He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says, 'First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a rooster.'
He takes her hand and says, 'Second, I want you to relax. L et's have ave a nice cup of tea, and then ..' he said with a deep sigh, . .. . . . .. .
(scroll down)
'Let's put all the Corn Flakes back in the box.'
