Donald and Hillary go into a bakery, while on the campaign trail. As soon as they enter the bakery, Hillary steals three pastries and puts them in her pocket. She whispers to Donald, "See how clever I am?" The owner didn't see anything and I don't even need to lie." Then she says "I will definitely win the election." The Donald says to Hillary, "That's the typical dishonesty you have displayed throughout your entire life, theft, trickery and deceit. I am going to show you an honest way to get the same result." Donald goes to the owner of the...

"We can't fall into the trap that is set up by the gun lobby that says if you can't stop every shooting in every incident you should not try to stop any. We did have an assault weapons ban for ten years. I think it should be reinstated," she said. On the other hand, Trump said that if people in Pulse had been armed, the scope of the tragedy would have been lessened.

"It will be, 'Get your snout out of the trough just like everybody else.' If I am president, we will not have any more bailouts, carveouts, handouts or special deals. We will reduce the corporate tax rate from 35% to 15%. We will get rid of all the deductions, credits, or exemptions, and you will compete not based on your connections to a congressman, but connections whether you can convince consumers if you have a good product. If you cannot do that, you should not be in business. Do not look for government to bail you out. You either compete...

[snip] WASHINGTON, D.C. -- When Howard Dean opens his mouth, Democrats cringe -- and Republicans pounce. His depictions of Republicans as "pretty much a white, Christian party," with many who "never made an honest living," have prompted leading Democrats to beseech him to cool his rhetoric. They also have questioned how much more the party will take from its volatile chairman. Defenders dismiss it all as just Howard Dean being Howard Dean. After all, remember the Dean "scream" after the Iowa primary? His political courtship of "the guys with Confederate flags on their pickup trucks"? His recent suggestion that House...

"They are desperate. How else can I explain the fact that I am 54 years old and the military is trying to recruit me?" [snip] "If the justness of the cause -- democracy in Iraq -- doesn't inspire people to sign up, the military will recruit them from the ranks of the unemployed, hoping that with our slack economy, a résumé posted three years ago might lead them to a person still unemployed. Which makes me wonder, if the American people are truly supporting this war, why aren't more people signing up to fight it?"

----- Original Message ----- Subject: U. S. Marine The Euro-Train was quite crowded, so the U. S. Marine walked its entire length looking for a seat, only to find that the last seat left was taken by a well-dressed middle-aged French woman's poodle. The war-weary Marine asked, "Ma'am, may I have that seat?" The French woman just sniffed and said to no one in particular, "Americans are so rude. My little Fifi is using that seat." The Marine walked the entire train again, but the only seat left was under that dog. "Please, ma'am. May I sit down? I'm very...

A series of billboards around the Twin Cities that brazenly declare "DON'T VOTE" have angered civil rights activists. Fifteen of the billboards have sprung up in Minneapolis, St. Paul and its suburbs in the last few days. Several are in areas with large minority populations, including the Phillips neighborhood in Minneapolis, leading the NAACP and other groups to criticize even the suggestion that citizens shouldn't exercise the right to vote. "This is a highly sensitive election season, and to put it in areas like the Phillips neighborhood, that's a minority community that's been disenfranchised enough," Brett Buckner, NAACP branch president...

The state Republican Party has called on the Star Tribune to fire its longtime pollster, Rob Daves, saying that the paper has consistently underestimated Republican turnout since he was hired in 1987. State Party Chairman Ron Eibensteiner, at a news conference at party headquarters this morning, said that "the final poll results for Republican candidates have been, on average, 5.2 percent under the actual results of the election. "The inaccuracy of the Star Tribune's Minnesota Poll, he said, "is a direct result of their pollster's insistence upon underrepresenting Republican voters in his samples." more...

To the Editor: As I read and hear the reaction to the swift boat veterans’ attack against John Kerry, because of his work as a leader of the anti-war movement and accusing him of lying about his abbreviated tour in Vietnam, I’m struck by how non-veterans, journalists and ordinary citizens alike, seem shocked and confused about why this story has had such an effect. After $63 million in anti-Bush ads have been aired, many of which attacked his service in the Texas Air National Guard, yet with very little reaction in the polls, how could a little $200,000 ad by...

Liberal. Conservative. The terms are tossed about like grenades in the current war for the soul of American politics. We in the newspaper business — particularly those of us who speak as the institutional voices of our newspapers on the editorial pages — are often labeled with these words by our readers. Some on the right call us liberals. Their neighbors on the left believe us to be conservative. But what do these terms really mean? Is Republican California gubernatorial candidate Arnold Schwarzenegger a conservative? He supports a woman's right to choose whether or not to have an abortion. Isn't...

Antiwar Effort Emphasizes Civility Over Confrontation March 29, 2003 NY Times By KATE ZERNIKE and DEAN E. MURPHY With the war against Iraq in its second week, the most influential antiwar coalitions have shifted away from large-scale disruptive tactics and stepped up efforts to appeal to mainstream Americans. One of the largest groups, Win Without War, is encouraging the two million people on its e-mail list to send supportive letters to soldiers. Other groups have redoubled their fund-raising for billboards that declare "Peace is Patriotic" and include the giant image of an unfurling American flag. The changed tone comes after...
