GOP Confab
GOP leaders say the Republican National Convention will be highlighted each
night by elaborate musical numbers staged by each and every one of the artists
who support President Bush. But it's not clear if the Oak Ridge Boys are ready
to take on such a grueling schedule alone.
Powell No-Show
Colin Powell will not be attending the Republican National Convention later this
month in New York City. The decision is leaving most experts confused, since the
Secretary of State usually joins President Bush whenever he visits a foreign
country.
Stem Cell Attack
First Lady Laura Bush attacked people supporting more stem cell research,
accusing them of giving people false hope -- kind of like when her husband tells
everyone the economy is getting better.
Bush 9/11 Report
Critics say President Bush took too long to accept the recommendations of the
9/11 Commission's report. But experts say Bush is already doing something to
make America safer than anything suggested in that report; he's losing the
election.
Box Office Hits
President Bush is inadvertently the star of one of the top grossing movies in
the country now that "Fahrenheit 9/11" has made more than $100
million. Of course, he's still playing second-fiddle to his wife, who is the
subject of the even more popular "I Robot."
Top 5 Reasons President Bush Won't See
Fahrenheit 9/11
-He can't be expected to sit and pay
attention to anything for two whole hours
-Secret service won't let him near any place that sells pretzels
-He's having too much fun shooting out TV screens while watching the Democratic
campaign ads
-Can only see one film on this vacation... and it's going to be "Garfield
the Movie"
-He's waiting for the release of the even more controversial "director's
cut"
Manchurian Candidate
There are mixed reviews for the new version of "The Manchurian
Candidate," which tells the story of a corporation that brain washes and
controls the U.S. Vice President. Average movie fans say it's great,
critics say it's a little forced, and Halliburton execs say, "Hey! That's
our idea!"
Teresa Sounds Off
After she told a reporter to "shove it," Teresa Heinz Kerry is under
attack. Conservatives want her to apologize, liberals want her to calm
down, Dick Cheney thinks she should have told him to "f**k off."
Clinton's Message
In his speech last night, President Clinton insisted that "strength and
wisdom are not opposing values." But it's not clear if he meant that
as an attack on President Bush, or an endorsement for Governor Schwarzenegger.
Bush Falls
President Bush fell off his bicycle while exercising at his ranch in Texas
yesterday. Officials say no essential parts of his body were effected,
which means he must have hit his head.
GOP Chides Dems
Republicans say the Democratic Convention is nothing but an episode of
"extreme makeover." Democrats are responding by characterizing
President Bush's first four years in office as back-to-back episodes of
"Big Brother," and "Fear Factor."
First Lady's Schedule
First Lady Laura Bush will be busy this week distributing children's books and
campaigning for the Bush-Cheney ticket. Of course, Mrs. Bush could promote
literacy and help the campaign all at once if she just stayed home and taught
her husband to read.
Berger Documents
Former National Security Advisor Sandy Berger says he accidentally removed top
secret terrorism documents and inadvertently threw them away. The Bush
Administration now wants Berger to be prosecuted, fined, and put in charge of
all of the President's National Guard service records.
Support for Lay
News reports say the first President Bush is doing what he can to support
indicted ex-Enron CEO and founder Ken Lay. The two men have a lot in
common; both know what it's like to be the father of an economic disaster.
Cheney at the Yankee Game
Vice President Dick Cheney joined former Mayor Rudy Giuliani at last night's
game at Yankee Stadium. Cheney really blended in with the crowd; wearing a
Yankees cap, eating peanuts, and yelling at all the Red Sox to "F**k
off."
Top 5 Reasons Jenna and Barbara Bush are Now
on the Campaign Trail with Dad
- Campaign fundraisers usually have open bars
- Helps hide the fact even they can't get a
real job in this economy
- Can learn to make their own booze when
visiting all those Red States
- Traveling from state to state every day is
the only way to avoid all those annoying college mailings asking for alumni
donations
- As long as they're around, at least two
people on the campaign staff will be able to read
Cheney Sticking Around
Despite pressure to quit, Dick Cheney is insisting on remaining Vice President.
That's because without free government health care, even he couldn't afford all
his heart medications.
Whoopi Whupped
Slimfast has dropped Whoopi Goldberg as its spokesperson after she made several
obscene jokes about Republicans at a Kerry fundraiser. Of course, since
Slimfast is a product that promises big results without really working hard, the
company should have hired President Bush for that job in the first place.
Identity Theft Bill
President Bush will sign a bill banning identity theft later today. But
experts aren't sure how effective the new law will be considering it's being
backed by a man who's been impersonating a leader for the last 3 1/2 years.
Top Things Conservative Republicans are
Boycotting Besides Heinz Ketchup
- Keri skin lotion
- Left turn signals
- Head and Shoulders Shampoo (directions say
to use a 'liberal" amount)
- Bush and garden trimmers
- The Bill of Rights
Marines Redeployed
The 2,000 marines sent to Afghanistan to secure successful elections there are
now leaving that country. That's because the Bush Administration now needs
them to secure successful elections in Florida.
