Bush Turns to Politics as He Greets Top Fund Raisers at a Barbecue
http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGA6LP7Z5JD.html

CRAWFORD, Texas (AP) - President Bush invited top fund-raisers for a private barbecue down the road from his ranch Saturday as he turned his attention from rebuilding Iraq to re-election politics.


The Bush campaign was shuttling in about 350 people, each of whom had helped collect $50,000 by June 30 for his 2004 campaign. They were getting personal attention from Bush and Karl Rove, his top political adviser, at the nearby Hickey Broken Spoke Ranch.

The Bush supporters got a break from a string of 100-degree days when brisk winds blew an early afternoon rainstorm over Crawford.

Two groups that monitor fund-raising activities, Public Citizen and Texans for Justice, said the barbecue showed that campaign donors get the president's ear and favorable treatment from the Bush administration.

1. CNN - Bill Schneider bias reporting on Arnie and Bush
Edited on Sat Aug-09-03 05:57 PM by dArKeR
-------------------
To: CNN and Schneider

Schneider was on, Thurday?, talking about how Davis represented nothing but 'special interest', 'getting money from special interest'. You never see CNN have a guest on who speaks the truth about Bush. (Davis times a billion.) And Bush is doing it while our children are dying in a foreign country. Davis doesn't have that responsibility to protect our children's lives. Let's see a CNN guest talk about who's on vacation and collecting money from special interests while our children are being murdered in Iraq and Afghanistan.

CNN, you disgust me more than Bush and Schneider make me vommit.

3. Thanks for the email addys
I just happened to tune in to CNN long enough to hear one of their anchors say Bush would undoubtedly win CA in 2004, and that the Repukes, namely Ahnold, would win the governorship there-made me want to throw up. I went to the CNN website but couldn't find their email addys, and I WON'T watch it on the off chance they would give an email addy. I sent them a scathing email which they won't even read, but it made me feel better!

7. I have to restrain myself too! I'm pretty all the Whores have filters
that search the email content and automaticly delete emails with words that are they deem vulgar. It's best not to call them 'fucking whores'. Better to write 'phucking, fuckking, dirty piece of shhit' LOL. Really don't want to use those words at all. It's best to use civil langauge and then end it with, 'I do watch CNN because I have to keep and eye on you and make a list of your advertisers whom I specifically don't buy. I also send an email to these advertisers telling them that we have a internet boycott list of CNN/FOX advertisers.' Repukes don't understand morals they only understand money.

And who's making our Internet Repuke advertisers boycott list?

4. You know why he didn't have the BBQ at his place?
Because these top fundraising people would have seen that the Pigshit Ranch is nothing more than a stage prop. Not that it would awaken these rich idiots...they sold their souls to the corporate demon long ago.
