More on the factcheck.org/factcheck.com fiasco:
Even if voters do successfully find the Penn-based Website, factcheck.org, the vice president shouldn't be too thrilled. The site's headline right now is: "Cheney and Edwards Mangle Facts." From our reading, it looks Cheney mangled a few more than Edwards, and the most damning stuff concerns his tenure at Halliburton:
It notes that some of the bad stuff at Halliburton happened before Cheney arrived, and some fines related to actions there while Cheney was CEO weren't levied until after he left (a little hairsplitting, we thinks). But do you think Cheney wants undecided voters to read this?...
Iran: Indeed, Halliburton has said it does about $30 million to $40 million in oilfield service business in Iran annually through a subsidiary, Halliburton Products and Services Ltd. The company says that the subsidiary fully complies with US sanctions laws, but the matter currently is under investigation by a federal grand jury in Houston.
Bribery Investigation: U.S. and French authorities currently are investigating whether a joint venture whose partners included a Halliburton subsidiary paid bribes or kickbacks to win a $12 billion construction project in Nigeria.
I am a senior citizen. During the Clinton Administration I had an extremely good and well paying job. I took numerous vacations and had several vacation homes.
Since President Bush took office, I have watched my entire life change for the worse. I lost my job. I lost 2 sons in that terrible war. I lost my homes. I lost my health insurance. As a matter of fact, I lost virtually everything and became homeless. Adding insult to injury, when the authorities found me living like an animal-instead of helping me, they arrested me.
I will do anything that Senator Kerry wants-to insure that a Democrat is back in office in the White House come next year.
Bush has to go.
Sincerely,
Saddam Hussein
OK, Saddam, I know you're a senior citizen and all, but you're repeating yourself. One more time pasting the same "letter" into the comments box and you'll be kicked out of here - back to Iraq!
Posted by: admin at October 6, 2004 12:28 PMSaddam,
You say you had it better under the Clinton administration? So did the American people. Bush may have ruined your life, but he's destroyed American credibility around the world, alienated our allies, and united our enemies against us. At home, he's helping corporations rape our environment, is the first president since Hoover to loose jobs (nearly 1 million), and oversees the largest budget deficit in our history. Every decision that he has made benefits big business much more than the American people. Bush believes that what is good for big business is good for America ... and now America is paying the price of this faulty premise, and will have to for many years to come.
Actually, Mr. Cheney is still being misunderstood. He didn't say "Factcheck" but "Fatcheck," a site devoted to scurillous ways to make money--in his case, lots of money.
Posted by: pj at October 6, 2004 01:32 PMYeah, Saddam, no pasting multiple letters. The only people allowed to send form letters to various media outlets are DNC/union/moron.org lackeys (the ones that can write and work a computer, anyway).
Posted by: jeff at October 6, 2004 01:36 PMSadaam,
You also had it pretty good on Reagan's watch when Donny Rumsfeld personally delivered a huge stash of American-made weapons to help you beat down the Kurds.
Posted by: DTK at October 6, 2004 01:38 PMTell you what, jeff: As soon as you find me a single instance of a "DNC/union/moron.org lackey" pasting the exact same text into three different comment threads on this site, I will make the same ultimatum to that person. Sorry to take up everybody else's time with this, but since the e-mail address you provide is bogus it's the only way I could communicate it to you.
Posted by: admin at October 6, 2004 03:47 PMI didn't say this just this site. I said "various media outlets".
The DNC's own website begs people to do it and there have already been multiple examples of people sending the same letter. You link to Taranto, he provides them daily.
I understand that since you work for the Daily News you probably can't read that well, but there's a differnce between "various media outlets" and this website.
Posted by: jeff at October 6, 2004 04:19 PMjeff - please feel free to send me an e-mail if you wish to continue discussing our rules here -clearly the point of both of my posts as I do not moderate those "various media outlets." This thread is not, however, the forum for such a discussion.
Posted by: admin at October 6, 2004 04:50 PMHey admin, it was laughing@Senior that got to me to read further. Puh-leeze don't discourage the rightwingwacko's from being so obviously wrong, if done in a humorous way.
Paul must have got tired of key punching because he could have added that Bush could appoint 3 Supreme Court Justices and 1,000 or more Federal Justice's. Paul might have mentioned Halliburton is really small potatoes when $50.++ price per barrel of oil and $200b for Iraq is monetized into the economy at a time they're outsourcing health & financial record keeping and the Bush/Ashcroft one accomplishment is Howard Stern will be off the FCC dial in 2006 and that medicare premiums are up 17% describes the Bush economy wherein costs are rising faster than incomes and after all that Saddam Hussein is President-elect of Iraq with 42% of the vote! (emphasis added) Four more years of War & Recession Bush? No thanks.

Bush has daone a good job, some people just live in a box and cannot or do not want to see that. I am getting better tax breaks under W for being married and a mother. I also have the best job I have ever had in my life.
Also, does anyone forget that Kerry is rich too? This guy is for the "working class" and I don't think he has ever had a job. He also has a wife with a major "big business" and many of that company's interests are overseas. Can we expect him to have unbiased judgement when making decisions for America? NO!
Get over it, look outside the box, and realize that you will never see a "poor" president.

http://www.cbc.ca/fifth/dickcheney/index.html
Hey everybody. Stuff it! I just want you all to vote for me this year so I can raise your taxes. I can do this because, despite the fact that I own four houses (mansions), I still only pay $90,000 in taxes each year, compared to Bush's one house and $250,000 in taxes each year. Is it my fault that Bush hasn't wisened up like me and found a way to avoid taxes? And Darienne, you're right, I've never had a job; I prefer that all the lowly working class people do the work, so that filthy rich guys like myself can do nothing all day (besides the very rare occasion of me attending public hearings for the National Intelligence Committee), which brings me to my next point. I think that our intelligence agencies need reforming. I'm not sure how yet, but if you elect me, I might be able to figure it out before I'm out of office.
