Christmas Greeting from Mike Huckabee

To my opponents, go kill yourselves.

With love, Bill.



These so-called Christians and their so-called brotherly love. They are killing the world, literally.

Oh, you might want to read the DIGG comments. :>)

Wrap up Chrismas Smartly


How sad Christmas, reduced to a yearly shopping spree in which we are expected to participate to support the sagging economy. Seems a lot of folks indulge in it with passion and fury. Good. Citibank needs the credit card interest you'll generate. They had to borrow a tidy sum from the Arab world lately at credit card rates. : >)

I think our consumption, however, is rather obscene. I'll spare you the rant. Instead, consider sending a can of worms. Not to your friends but to a farmer in one of 26 countries served by Oxfam America. You can also send a sheep, plant 50 trees, or plant a garden. Your friend gets a card telling of your deed, those in need get useful tools.

Take a look. All it takes is a few clicks to get all your shopping done.

Help a Veteran Call Home, 'W' Won't



It's really a sad state of affairs when the Bush administration won't even grant our nation's hospitalized veterans a few dollars in long-distance fees so they can call their loved ones back home over the holidays.
Go fight the good fight for God and Oil, but don't get injured 'cause we grant no favors. Apparently those mega billions in war appropriations didn't include free calls home from your hospital bed.

Why isn't Halliburton subject to the same level of bean counting? : >)

Salute Our Veterans; Help Them Call Home Over the Holidays

Write Karl Rove

I know the thought makes you sick, but hear me out. DCCC.org is reporting that Uncle Karl is trying to blame Congress for starting the disaster in Iraq. Yeah, that's hardly surprising. It's always someone else's fault - the typical MO of the Bush bunch.

Well, suck it up. DCCC made it very easy to write to Mr. Dirty Tricks himself. If I can do it, you certainly can.

Here's my opus:

Hi.

Lately I hear you are crediting Congress with starting the disastrous war in Iraq. Oh, you're blaming Congress? The war's a mistake?

It doesn't surprise me you and your eminently presumptuous crowd believe you don't make mistakes. I only hope you offer this as a defense in your war crimes trial, a time of judgement long overdue.

You'll thank us from jail.
Start now, write your own missive.

Here's the beef from DCCC.org:

We're compiling a holiday present for Rove to remember -- all your letters chock full of the truth. Help us hit Rove hard with a heavy dose of reality.

Karl Rove has been going around town, blaming Congress for starting the failed war in Iraq. That's right -- he is actually trying to make people forget that President Bush started this disastrous war in a ludicrous attempt to rewrite the history books. But this Sunday, Chairman Van Hollen will call him on it.

Help us set the record straight. Send a letter to Karl Rove himself.

While it's on your mind, write a letter to the editor.

When you're finished, post them to my comment section.

Thanks. :>)
