Bush to hold Pittsburgh fund raiser Dec. 2
by Homeland Security Friday, Nov. 14, 2003 at 10:23 AM

Billionaire wartime-deserter, religious terrorist, wannabee cowboy from CT, is coming to Pittsburgh to panhandle.

Friday, November 14, 2003



WASHINGTON -- President Bush will bank on Keystone State support for his re-election at a Pittsburgh fund-raiser the first week of December, the White House announced today.

Bush's Pittsburgh appearance on Dec. 2. will mark his 23rd visit to Pennsylvania -- more than to any other state -- since taking office. With 21 electoral votes, Pennsylvania is tied with Illinois for the nation's fifth-largest political prize.

The Steel City lunch is one of five the president will headline between Dec. 1 and 11 for the Bush-Cheney '04 campaign. He is also raising campaign funs in Detroit, Newark, N.J., Baltimore and McLean, Va., a Washington suburb.

Opposition is all around
by <<<>>>> Monday, Nov. 17, 2003 at 5:10 AM

Given the fact this event has been announced far in advance there is the opportunity for great resistance.

Now is the time to create an affinity group - five to ten folks you know who are outraged about the current administration. Hopping mad enough to take to the streets in defiance of GWB.

Fear not - there will be a show of opposition but this week our hearts and thoughts will be with friends and comrades in Miami and Ft. Benning.

Bush says he wont be fazed
by by London protests Monday, Nov. 17, 2003 at 10:36 AM

Bush has said he will not be fazed by the protests. "I am so pleased to be going to a country which says that people are allowed to express their mind. That's fantastic. Freedom is a beautiful thing," he told the UK's Press Association last week

This quote is really funny "pleased to be going to a country which says that people are allowed to express their mind" - unlike the good ol' US of A.

Let's welcome him! London style.
by more Monday, Nov. 17, 2003 at 8:20 PM

Let's welcome him london style... No i don't mean we will get anywhere near the 60,000-100,000 people they are expecting but i do think that a large scale action could be planned in time for this if the TMC and others felt it was worth it (why shouldn't they?). this man is coming here to raise money for him and his war party in hopes Pittsburgh and PA in general will swing his way in the next election. the time to shame him is now.

you're kidding, right?

How can Collaborators and aiders and abettors of child torture/murder and the heinous treatment of women shame anyone? Like, should I feel awe and shame in the presence of a lice infested baby raper? That's how low you pieces of shit rate.

Why not chain yourself to a fence like that dipshit did? What fools the rest of us are for not leaving her exactly where she is!

London's calling
by * Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2003 at 4:06 AM

Due to the announcement in advance of Dubya's visit I would say his support is definately dropping. Now every person who attends the luncheon gets one free quart of Mobile oil. 10 Dubya 30

Of course the TMC is gonna represent. That probably goes without saying. But - every one of us is an organizer, so don't wait for a call to action to start talking to people and planning.

Less than half is a far cry from representing .00001% which is what the out of touch No Blood for Oil crowd does. You still whining about losing the 2000 election? It probably would have helped Gore to at least carry his own state. What's that tell you when the people most familiar with him reject him outright?

Irving - You continue to make a mockery of yourself.

"When you copy and paste your little hardy har har's, Little Precious, please check spelling. It's Mobil. Mobile is in Alabama."

-Hardy har har's? Uh, what, is it possesive or something? If not, what is the apostrophe for?

"The quality of Leftists is at all time lows...."

-But the quality of written language coming from the right is just impeccable.

For someone so concerned with insulting the spelling of those who you don't agree with, you sure do make a lot of errors. More so than the person you are criticizing. Go figure - one would never think that the right wing would see the splinter in another person's eye before noticing the log in their own.

And is the best you can do is pick out a couple of little spelling errors? But that's okay. I'd rather not be able to spell than be a piece of shit Collaborator, on par with baby rapers.

tactics
by USS Irving Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2003 at 5:13 AM

I just wanted to publicly state to all you baby raping Leftists out there that my best argument against your views is name calling and pointing out spelling errors in oil company names. But those tactics are off limits to you! You cannot use those same reasons to discredit me!

If any of you Leftists would like to have an actual debate on some issues thats too bad, 'cause unless I'm behind my computer where I can cyberslam I can't discuss much of anything. All you Leftists with college degrees and whatnot who would be more than happy to meet and debate can just go back to your terrorist loving realm because I won't discuss any real issues! So there.

Bush Coming to Pgh
by Alfredo Tuesday, Nov. 25, 2003 at 5:27 PM

Every day I thank God that George W. Bush is the president, and not that whining, girly-man Al Gore, who would have handed over the entire nation to Osama bin Laden by now. But hey, if you terrorist-supporting lunatic leftists want to protest, first thank the veterans who have won and preserved your First Amendment rights, and then scurry down to the Westin and wave your pathetic little signs.

And I'll tell you one thing - I don't care in the slightest bit about all those kids we killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. That's war. That's what war is all about. You lefties better start caring about America first. All these foreigners - yea wee need them... to work in our 7-11's

Freepers think for themselves, and all I have are slogans. you know, stuff like racist and homophobe and Kyoto and Department of Peace and blood libel and Arafat is the shining example of peace and joy in our time.

Hilarous.
by Colin Monday, Dec. 01, 2003 at 4:27 AM

Hilarious. Your world aggravation from living in a defunct society is aimed at a group of people you would label with broad terms. Call them Hippies, traitors, liberals, leftists, or any other brand you can spell up. Hive five your friend next to you for being so incredibly witty, drink a Brewskie, and pretend you're living the American dream.

You're living in a dream, all right. Your inability to process any sort of logical capacities upon the world is a sad state. Your mind, instead, is caught up in the routine habit of irrational thought processes. It must be all that Religion, and early age preprogramming to have emotional investment into imaginary fascist organizations that hold no good for you or this world.

Thanks for being another predictable blind-sided douchebag.

Go jerk off to some Ayn Rand Novels, dork.

I'm smart and you're not
by Colon Monday, Dec. 01, 2003 at 5:27 AM

I'm smart. I know it. I'll tell you why.

I'll attack people for living in a dream world, and attack society and call it defunct. It's because I'm knee buckling brilliant. I fully realize that after millions of years of evolution we should have had Utopia by now. I'm an adolescent asswipe, so self absorbed that I'm the first one in the history of mankind to just know beyond understanding that Peace Is Possible, and every other living thing is so stupid, likefer shure.

As long as our minds depend on ancient physical bodies which are hierarchal and territorial and hungry then Peace is the Big Lie. But since I'm in the 5th grade I'm too freaking stupid to realize that. I cannot handle life exactly how it is.

But I don't care. I know what's right, and everyone else is wrong. It's a good thing that genies aren't real, and that I don't rule the world, because I'd be one of the most dangerous creatures to humanity.

I'm a self absorbed bedwetter, and my name is Colon. Somebody please hear me. I'm a god, intellectual beyond comprehension.

HE was here, but where were the rest of you??
by Linc L. Boltin Tuesday, Dec. 02, 2003 at 9:32 AM

You wanted protesters, but where was everyone. The Bush is here but no one followed through. Last time I show up for any Indymedia useless protest. The organization here is terrible. I am with durutti, Sam and the others in saying that Indymedia has run its course. Time to surf elsewhere, I guess.
----------------------
Bush is my shepherd, I shall be in want.
He leadeth me beside the still factories,

He maketh me to lie down on park benches,
He restoreth my doubts about the Republican party,

He guideth me onto the paths of unemployment for the party's sake.

I do fear the evildoers, for thou talkst about them constantly.

Thy tax cuts for the rich and thy deficit spending

They do discomfort me.

Thou anointeth me with never-ending debt,

And my savings and assets shall soon be gone.

Surely poverty and hard living shall follow me,

And my jobless children shall dwell in my basement forever

I do fear the evildoers, but Kucinich appeases them.

His relentless taxation of already burdened working people will supplicate the freeloaders.

He will anointeth me with never-ending debt and taxation and misery.

And my savings and assets shall soon be gone.

Surely poverty and hard living and Political Correctness and Race Baiting and Thought Police and Socialism and Communism and Fascism and Heterophobia and attacks on Christianity shall follow me,
