Scrapple face and a real editor

You have to read the whole schmeer
Dear Scott,

I hope the story you wrote, “One Year Later, Some Katrina Victims Still Slow to Respond“, is satire and is not based on comments actually made by Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. An excerpt from your story had been sent to me, and I forwarded it to this list, which is read by Katrina survivors and people who want to support them. I had thought the excerpt was authentic until just now, when I read the full story on your website and detected that the entire website is satire. I might not have been fooled (assuming the story IS satire) if I didn’t know Pelosi. But I do. I live in her district and know her as extremely cold and callous, often blaming the victim - just the way you portrayed her.

If your story is satire, please tell that to the people on this list. As you can see, your story has caused them immeasurable pain. [blah blah blah]

I saw her picture in the news today, "flexing her muscles" as she took the speaker's chair: http://images.washtimes.com/photos/full/20070104-093215-5351.jpg

My first thought was "There's the epitome of a 'Botox Smile'".

She and harry have already sent a letter to the commander and Chief and President of this country demanding that he not send any further troops to Iraq. They are detemined that the terrorist defeat us.

spilled the afternoon coffee...

such is the fun on C&S, but at least this time, it was not out the nose.

it is sad, isn't Jack...

but me thinks, this letter to the President, was merely last minute cover for the growing sense of the LIBERAL FOLLY who supports the 'Pelosi-Clinton-Kerry-Reid' fiasco, known as the Democrat Party.

the moonbats who push the Lamonts are a little confused now, as to why the vast majority of the Democrats in office are not pushing for the surrender of the USA in Iraq, especially in their 100 day image thing.

this letter is probably just a little sugar to keep the loons in line.

it would be no surprise, to think the Sheehan kooks foolishly believed the slander, undermining, sabotage, of the effort in Iraq, was something more than a desperate grasp for power.

hell, the vast majority of these dishonest Democrats voted for the mission in Iraq, and their lack of action to pull funding, suggests they either don't have the support in Congress to abandon Iraq, the mission is worthy for the USA & the future of the Free World after all, it is not as bad as they have made it out to be, or the vast majority of Americans aren't interested in 'running away'.

maybe a little of everything, including, Democrats in Office simply don't care.

Dang, I missed D'Cuntessa as I was completely reloading my computer and that kept me busy for two days...I sorta wanted to catch her act and watch her "bogart" the microphone.
