1. Finally the truth. (Kinda)
I can't wait to be at the protests in London in two weeks. I've never protested anything, but Bush is not welcome in the UK and I'll be there with bells on.

Fuck you Bush, you're a class A wanker.

3. Go AHEAD, England
Show us again how it's PROPERLY done!! I can't WAIT to see how your tabloids are going to cover this uprising, and how Auntie Beeb will rub the American Media's brown noses in the Five Ws of Journalism--in a Fair and Balanced, way of course.

:evilgrin:

23. Yeah, he's a wanker. Is it true that when * appears in Parliament
that the labor party is going to literally turn their backs on him? I can't wait to see this one.

5. And the contents are good, too
including another article about BBV which asks why we don't make sure we have honest elections.

The truth is there for all Americans to see, if they will only open their eyes and demand that these crooks stop screwing this country.

7. excellent - finally the truth!
Now let's see this on the networks.

Maybe on CNN we can see some colorful banner graphics, like during "Operation Iraqi Freedom" which say something like "Bush: Failing Miserably."

And those banners are there permanently on the bottom of the screen, as they broadcast on anything having to do with Bush.

BTW, Will, I just bought your Iraqi book. Also heard you on Democracy Now a few weeks ago - I think you're great!

8. This will play well among military families
“If we don’t get Iraq right in time,” fretted one National Security Council official, “we could lose the election.”

Priorities, priorities.

18. With all Bush's experience with crime and extorsion, you probably
couldn't do it for one twentieth of the cost.

11. The photo is one of his
more simian moments, too. Are they getting around to telling the truth finally? I relish the idea.

13. The photo inside is priceless, too
Bush and Laura are inside an opulent Asian palace. Look at that photo -- it's quite a dramatic counterpoint to the human suffering and fiscal pain this administration has induced in its rush to war.

12. I bought Newsweek just for the cover!
but there's also an interesting article on pg 45 - A Matter of Loyalty - a 19-yr old boy used a fake green card to enlist in the army and has served in Iraq. His family illegally entered the US when he was four. The army found out about the fake green card and he's now sitting in a brigg. He and his entire family are now facing charges and deportation - disgusting!

17. Letters...they need letters!
They need stacks and stacks of letters.

GO TEAM!

Dear Reader:

Thank you for telling the truth about the waste of lives and moral authority, the chaos created by this administration in this country and across the planet, and the chronyism that robs the coffers of America's future while it fuels the Bush election campaign. If you keep printing the truth, America might just wake up.

20. They've been having some good covers lately
The majority of people just look at the covers in the check-out line and never pick up the magazine OR read it. THAT'S why it's so great that it's on the cover...

to summon up some small token amount of compassion or sympathy. But it isn't happening.

28. Excellent
Let the pile on begin. If we are lucky, there will be competition for who can get the biggest scoop on this mess.
