So, what have I been up to lately? For one thing, I've been busy not
getting my tax return filed.
Oh -- you mean, what have I been doing on the anti-Bush front? Well, I
did write the education lies chapter of "Big Bush Lies." Edited by Jerry
"Politex" Barrett of BushWatch, it includes 20 essays about George W.
Bush written by academics, legal experts, financial leaders, activists,
and journalists. You can order it directly from the publisher @
http://www.riverwoodbooks.com/books/Big-Bush-Lies.html or from
Amazon.com @

End of commercial -- it's time for some humor. Here's my latest song
parody:
Fact-Free Bush
By Madeleine Begun Kane
http://www.madkane.com/fact_free_bush.html
(Sing it to "She'll Be Coming Round The Mountain")
When the facts get in the way you change the facts,
And when facts get in the way, give facts the ax.
When the facts get in the way,
When the facts get in the way,
When the facts get in the way you change the facts.
When Iraq is not as threat'ning as you claimed,
Say you never said it was, play language games.
When Iraq is not as threat'ning,
When Iraq is not as threat'ning,
When Iraq is not as threat'ning as you claimed.
When your job projection numbers are quite wrong,
Blithely claim you never bought them all along.
When your job projection numbers,
When your job projection numbers,
When your job projection numbers are quite wrong.
That was always my position, is your line.
Doesn't matter if you've really changed your mind.
That was always my position,
That was always my position,
That was always my position is your line.
Fifty states should get to do what they think's right.
So you say, while throwing round your weight and might.
Fifty states should get to do what,
Fifty states should get to do what,
Fifty states should get to do what they think's right.
You won't leave a single child behind you swear.
You didn't mention that you'd fund your bill with prayer.
You won't leave a single child,
You won't leave a single child,
You won't leave a single child behind you swear.
Good sound science is the key to what you do,
Just so long as sci'ntists follow all your cues.
Good sound science is the key to,
Good sound science is the key to,
Good sound science is the key to what you do.
It's your money, you should keep it, so you said.
You didn't tell us you just meant your wealthy friends.
It's your money, you should keep it,
It's your money, you should keep it,
It's your money, you should keep it, so you said.
When the experts say you're wrong shunt them aside.
You don't care if facts and policy collide.
When the experts say you're wrong,
When the experts say you're wrong,
When the experts say you're wrong shunt them aside.
When the facts get in the way you change the facts,
And when facts get in the way, give facts the ax.
When the facts get in the way,
When the facts get in the way,
When the facts get in the way you change the facts.

Alpha Politics
By Madeleine Begun Kane
http://www.madkane.com/alpha_politics.html
"A" is for John Ashcroft and the liberties he's mauled.
"B" is for Barb Bush and hub. Dub's birth is all their fault.
"C" is for Ms. Condi Rice, who speaks so many lies.
"D" is for the Dixie Chicks, who dare to Bush despise.
"E" is for our soon to be Ex-Prez George Dubya Bush.
"F" is for Al Franken, and his mean and funny Rush.
"G" is for Gen. Boykin, who believes Bush speaks with God.
"H" is for Ms. Karen Hughes, who's tall of tale and bod.
"I" is for the imbeciles who buy the pap Bush spews.
"J" is for John Kerry, who has paid his wartime dues.
"K" is for Ken "Enron" Lay, who's on Dub's ex-pal list.
"L" is for Trent Lott, who lost his job to William Frist.
"M" is for Mitch Daniels, who was never good with dough.
"N" is for Ralph Nader, a huge help to Bush and Rove.
"O" is for Ms. Oprah who can read, unlike our Prez.
"P" is for Dub's Pootie-Poot, who's soulful, Dubya says.
"Q" is for George Dubya quotes, which rarely make much sense.
"R's" for Richard Clarke, who finds Bush stubborn and quite dense.
"S" is for the 9 Supremes who ripped off Albert Gore.
"T" is for Brit Tony Blair, Bush poodle to the core.
"U" is for the USA, which needs a new regime.
"V" is for Veep Cheney, who's one-half a wicked team.
"W's" for Chris Whitman, who betrayed the EPA.
"X," "Y," "Z's" for nothing, but dump Dubya! Make my day!
