CBS/ABC News
We've made progress.....3000 soccer balls have been shipped to Iraq!

CBS interviewed a former Clitnon Staffer who said that the 9/11 / Bin LAdden connection was never there. He thinks that the war is/will backfire.

They also pointed out how Bush no longer mentions WMD's.


ABC: Despite what the WH says, the attacks are not in isolated areas and that there are at least 12 attacks a day.

Now claiming that they overestimated the Iraqi Army, but underestimated the post war resolve.

And now there's a bounty of $5,000 for every American soldier killed.


Now pointing out how Arnold is dodging questions and just giving PR speeches & catch phrases (showing clips from interviews)

1. I think that this calls for...
A DU Soccerball Cookbook, one that we can ship to the Iraqi people, since the food deliveries seem to falling a little short.

2. the bad news...cbs reported 56 American deaths since May 1...
did not even say in combat to qualify the number. At least on cnn's wolfie show He actually came out and said 126(?) deaths of Americans in Iraq since chipmy's aircarrier stunt.

3. I heard today that it's no longer about WMD's but
about Iraqi Freedom. It was on MSNBC this afternoon. From now on,
no administration members will talk about WMD's.

So they don't talk about it and it just goes away . . .poof!

4. CBS scam alert reported on a lady in Florida
that now has a garage full of fancy greeting cards and $25K on their credit cards.

They borrowed $25K on their credit cards to participate in a work at home scam. I can’t feel to sorry for anyone that would sign such a contract for that much money.


In December 99 I was stupid enough to entrust my 94 F150 to the local Ford dealership for a fuel pump replacement. The condition it was in when I picked it up could have only been caused by deliberate potentially murderous acts of sabotage. I found bolts loosen on both the oil and transmission pans, the motor oil was obvious doped, and the tail light fuse would blow whenever the lights were turned on. In the early 70s (When Firestone tires were mysteriously exploding on Fords) we called this “Ford’s Royal Rip”, or the “$4,000 oil change”. The Ford’s saboteur’s goal is to deceive and scam the victim into a lot of mechanical work. I wasn’t surprised when Firestone tires began exploding on Fords in the summer of 2000. No one in law enforcement has shown any interest into getting to bottom of Ford’s scams.
