For those who wished it so; sorry, boys. Your celebrations, like your
ejaculations, are premature.
For those of good will: the best to you.
Oh, and a special note for whoever it really is who posts and poses
here
as "Howard MacMurray," and posted this little gem:
"I reported him for copyright violation. No death, no nothing. His
Internet access was pulled and he is now facing a lawsuit. I reported
him to DMCA abuse at comcast and the newspaper that posted the

He got the ****ing trouble he asked for."
Enjoy this very interesting and informative bit that appeared in the
news this morning, an incisive piece on a movement that sadly will go

Launch drive to impeach Bush, activists urge
By PAUL KORING

WASHINGTON -- The emotive and charged word "impeachment" was voiced
yesterday on Capitol Hill as a clutch of Democratic congressmen, backed
by distraught mothers of soldiers slain in Iraq, put together a piece
of
theatre that could become the summer's political drama.
John Bonifaz, a self-styled constitutional lawyer and anti-war
activist,
suggested there are sufficient grounds to launch an inquiry into
whether
the President should be impeached for lying to Congress about the
justification for the war.
"The United States House of Representatives has a constitutional duty
to
investigate fully and comprehensively the evidence revealed by the
Downing Street minutes and other related evidence, and to determine
whether there are sufficient grounds to impeach George W. Bush, the
President of the United States," Mr. Bonifaz said."
But Harry, how could this be? Howard McMurray said that he had you
wouldn't be here because your "internet access was pulled" Hehe!!!!!
How's the lawsuit he initiated? Been subpeonaed yet?!!!!! Hope you had
a good time!
I had a wonderful time with some old friends from college. In 1965,
about 20 of us headed down to Louisiana and Mississippi from Kansas to
help rebuild a burnt-out black church. I had a little grant back then
from a magazine to write an article about it. Well, 16 of the original
group made it to the reunion, and we all stayed with many of the same
black families that put us up previously. The church we helped rebuild
is still standing, and in nice shape, and aside from eating too much,
and singing too much, and crying over those no longer here, we enjoyed a
couple of days of working on some housing for poor folks.
Good for you! I'm sure the pig pilers here will come up with all sorts
of reasons why charity and thoughtfulness are bad, but that's the way
things are. My outlet is Habitat for Humanity, and once in awhile I
volunteer with a "soup kitchen" downtown. Real eye opener.
Pig pilers! Whan an appropriate descriptor!
Habitat for Humanity is a wonderful organization, wherever it is.

Full Disclosure
South Florida Sun-Sentinel Editorial Board
Posted June 8 2005
ISSUE: A local Habitat for Humanity chapter may keep from the public results
of probes into serious conflict-of-interest questions.
The Jupiter-based low-income home-building charity is kidding itself if it
believes it can overcome this controversy without full and public
disclosure.
So far, Lighthouse Habitat for Humanity officials have responded
appropriately to questions swirling around the huge profits several
homeowners made on the sale of houses they got at cut-rate prices and with
donated time and materials.
After a South Florida Sun-Sentinel reporter told the charity about the
questionable sales, and about the curious connection between a past Habitat
president and a real estate agent who made thousands on some of the homes,
it tightened conflict disclosure policies and launched two separate
investigations.
