He said that while looking at Clinton. ;)
Please let me know if you want OFF or ON my cartoon PING List. Thanks! Linda
Democrats don't smile genuinely. Generally, Democrats don't smile unless it's at someone else's misfortune or they're running for office - and then you can tell it's not sincere. I don't know, maybe I need to eat.

Democrats Speak Out Against Tasteless Humor |

''Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be somewhere ... " George Bush, March 24, 2004 |
''This is a very serious issue,'' Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe said Friday on ''Good Morning America'' on ABC. ''We've lost hundreds of troops, as you know, over there. Let's not be laughing about not being able to find weapons of mass destruction.'' |
"...nope, no weapons over there ... maybe under here?'' |
''one of the most despicable acts of a sitting president'' ''Well, that's not a joke to us, Mr. Bush. Five hundred soldiers lost their lives, looking for weapons that weren't there. Billions of taxpayer dollars were spent looking for weapons that weren't there,'' |
"My plan was that, on the last day [of the protest] we would go into the [congressional] offices we would schedule the most hardcore hawks for last and we would shoot them all." Scott Camil, in a 1992 oral history of the anti-war movement still on file at the University of Florida |
Camil told the Sun that he plans to accept an offer by the Florida Kerry organization to become active in Kerry's presidential campaign. Campaign aides to Kerry invited Camil to a meeting for the senator in Orlando last week, but they did not meet directly. |
"I was serious," Camil insisted. Targets were to include senators John Stennis, Strom Thurmond and John Tower. |
In his book "Tour of Duty," Kerry biographer Douglas Brinkley reports that Kerry left the VVAW a few days before the assassination plot vote, submitting an official letter of resignation on Nov. 10, 1971. |
But according to FBI files obtained by CNSNews.com, Kerry was in attendance at the 1971 meeting that included talk of possibly assassinating U.S. senators. VVAW members discussed targeting then-Senators Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, John Tower of Texas and John Stennis of Mississippi because of their continuing support for the Vietnam war. |
Early last week, Kerry's presidential campaign spokesman David Wade told the New York Sun, "Kerry was not at the Kansas City meeting." Wade added that Kerry had resigned from the VVAW "sometime in the summer of 1971." |
Gerald Nicosia, author of the book Home to War: A History of the Vietnam Veterans' Movement and a Kerry supporter, told CNSNews.com last week that Kerry was being less than truthful about his anti-war activities. |
"If there are valid FBI surveillance reports from credible sources that place some of those disagreements in Kansas City, we accept that historical footnote in the account of his work to end the difficult and divisive war," Wade said in a statement late last week. |
In the top of the News, Senator John Stennis underwent a lengthy operation at Walter Reed Army Medical Center after he was shot during a hold up in front of his Washington home today.
The surgery was for the removal of two bullets, one from the Senators chest, and one from his left leg.
Stennis, who entered the Senate in 1947, is Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

"Somebody told me the other day that the Secret Service has orders that if George Bush is shot, they're to shoot Quayle. There isn't any press here, is there?" John Kerry, 1988 |
