ASSOCIATED PRESS GOES OVER THE LINE ON TONY SNOW
In perhaps another example of how ugly the real face of the leftist media is in the US, Douglass K. Daniel wrote one of the most demeaning and insulting obituary ever written on someone in public service the day after they died! Daniel wrote the obit on Tim Russert which was a moving tribute to the man, he then turns around and insults Snow's family and his memory.
Here is what Bill O'Reilly had to say:
The Associated Press wire service's obituary on Tony Snow was little more than a platform to insult the former Fox News anchor and ex-presidential press secretary. Read the AP story yourself and then let its boss know how you feel.

NEWSPAPER BLOODBATH BEGINS AS THE AXE FALLS IN LA!
The Los Angeles Times says publisher David Hiller has resigned after 21 months at the helm of Tribune Co.'s largest paper. Insiders say it was involuntary and that he was asked to leave following a lack luster performance at the helm of one of the nation's worst newspapers!
The news comes the same day Chicago Tribune editor Ann Marie Lipinski was forced out at the Tribune's flagship paper, continuing a string of executive firings amid a broad cost-cutting effort at the company's papers nationwide.
Hiller was the third publisher to lead the Times since Tribune Co. bought the paper in 2000. Predecessor Jeffrey Johnson was ousted in late 2006 when he balked at trimming newsroom staff to cut costs.
The Times said two weeks ago it will cut 250 positions, including 150 in the newsroom. The paper did not immediately name a successor and word is that they can't find a qualified candidate who wants the job!

NEW YORKER MAGAZINE DECIDES TO P*** EVERYONE OFF!
In probably one of the dumbest moves in its history (It had to come up with a duzzy to beat some of its past guffaws!) New York's publication for the local leftwing crazies: New Yorker mag put up a cover picturing Obama as a terrorist and his wife as a gun toting Black Panther. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25673296/?GT1=43001
Move on dot org was so angry it has its robot following trying to bring down the mags website.
Even that moron Huffington had to weigh in:
The Huffington Post, a left-leaning blog, said: "Anyone who's tried to paint Obama as a Muslim, anyone who's tried to portray Michelle as angry or a secret revolutionary out to get Whitey, anyone who has questioned their patriotism -- well, here's your image."
Hey you just have to love these brain dead socialists and their magazines!
RASMUSSEN REPORTS SHOW GARGOYLE LOSING SUPPORT!
The latest poll results for July show a continued decline for Gregoire in her race with Rossi. Her point lead has gone from 11 points to 6 in less than 90 days! She has only one place to go from here: DOWN!

MAJOR SCANDAL AT SOUND TRANSIT, FUTUREWISE IS INVOLVED!
Sound Transit, the inventor of the 'rails to nowhere fraud', now is showing just how much respect it has for taxpayer GASOLINE TAX dollars: THEY ARE HANDING IT OVER TO ENVIRONMENTAL CRACKPOT BOSS BRAINERD AND HIS ENVIRON-NAZI'S AT FUTUREWISE!
Here is first word on an investigation into this MAJOR SCANDAL:
http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/transportation/370050_soundtransit09.html
http://www.kirotv.com/investigations/16811658/detail.html#
What makes matters worse here folks is Sound Transit's utter disregard for the law in this state. They know perfectly well that this giving of money to these environmental whackos is illegal under the Washington State Constitution.
The average Joe is having to drive to work in some of the worst traffic congestion in the United States, people having to put up with bus systems that don't take people where they need to go to go to work, and literally BILLIONS being spent as presents to the usual suspects.
Year after year they pour money in the coffers of shyster trial lawyers and corrupt engineering construction companies doing endless consulting AND NOTHING EVER GETS DONE!
Would you trust this agency ever again? As one local politician reacted after hearing of this, "We are killing people every year on Highway 2 in Snohomish County and look at where Sound Transit is giving away tax payer money. I think the whole lot of them should be thrown in jail!"
IDIOT FEDERAL BUREAUCRATIC IDEA OF THE WEEK AWARD?
Officials at the Department of Homeland Security watching too many old Sci-Fi Movies?
In the 1964 movie "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058530/
Aliens bring in slaves to mine the Red Planet and control them with tracking and shocking bracelets. Well, this is 2008 and the DHS wants to do the same thing WITH AIR TRAVELERS (IE: YOU!)
http://www.washingtontimes.com/weblogs/aviation-security/2008/Jul/01/want-some-torture-with-your-peanuts/
Just think, a passenger starts to act up and all the stewardess has to do is to press a button and give the jerk a big debilitating shock! That also applies to someone who strays into a security area in an airport or for interrogating passengers about their "terrorist" connections (wrong answer, great big shock). They want all AIR TRAVELERS TO WEAR THE THINGS.
Actually your blogger really prefers the idea of 'exploding collars' that were used in the old 1987 Sci-Fi movie "The Running Man" starring now California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. That way officials can just press a button and blow off the head of anyone who acts up in an airport or on an airplane. Hey, sort of an administrative decision regarding the death penalty that the Supreme Court can't rule on!
I can just hear the ACLU going off on this one!
GARGOYLE CAMPAIGN CAN'T GET IT STRAIGHT?
In a new radio ad Gargoyle says that Dino voted against traffic projects and more roads and then says "think about that while you stew in traffic!".
Now the blog post says, "Republican Dino Rossi would reverse our progress in fighting climate change. His grand idea to cut greenhouse gas emissions? Build more roads. That's right. According to Republican Dino Rossi, more roads and more cars equal less greenhouse gas emissions."
What's wrong with this picture? IF Gargoyle can't get her attack ads right, how can she run the state for another term? Very sad state of affairs for Washington residents.

DINO RESPONDS TO GARGOYLE ATTACKS
Friends -
I'm sure by now you have all heard the radio and TV ads by the incumbent governor and her allies attacking my record. They must be pretty desperate to already be up on the air making charges against me that just are not true.
It's sad that an incumbent governor starts her campaign, not by talking about her own accomplishments while in office, but by attacking me. And when all else fails, she resorts to the same tired old Democratic strategy to link everyone in my party to the President.
You deserve better than these untruthful ads.
The truth is:
I voted in favor of a Patient Bill of Rights.
I voted to lower prescription drug costs.
Thousands more children received health care under my budget.
I worked with Republican and Democratic legislators to make it harder for violent felons to be released from jail.
And I opposed putting sex offender housing next to a camp for children.
Thanks for your continued support,
Dino

OBAMA/CLINTON BATTLES STILL UNDERWAY?
A prominent donor to Senator Barack Obama recently sent an e-mail plea to other supporters, asking them -- for the sake of Democratic unity -- to write checks to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton to help retire her $23 million in campaign debt.
Some of the replies are unprintable, given the coarse language, the donor said. A sampling of others included:
"Why would I help pay off debts that Hillary amassed simply to keep damaging Senator Obama?"
"Gas prices are up, the markets are in turmoil, my kid's fall tuition bill is coming soon. Writing checks to politicians I don't like is not at the top of my list."
"Not a penny for that woman. Or her husband. Or -- god forbid -- Mark Penn," a reference to Hillary Clinton's former senior strategist, whose firm is still owed several million dollars for work that included aggressive attacks on Obama. Copyright the NY Times

Oh, Gee Oh Golly, and Gee Whiz, hmmmm?
WEA TEACHER'S UNION SPREADING FALSE HOPES AND LIES?
Your kids, grandkids can now send and receive every kind of message--texts, IMs (instant messages), e-mails, and Facebook posts--with most new mobile phones. The young new generation is using these technologies and as far as THEY are concerned e-mail is obsolete, period.
So what? Well, the National Educational Association (the teachers union) has begun a shadow, underground political campaign putting out the false information that if OBAMA IS ELECTED, unlimited free texting will be available to all the kids in schools across the county. This phony buzz story has been firmly planted in the minds of our youth by these lying teachers.
Now you ask, why would they want to do that? As one Republican McCain staffer explained it to me.
"If you take 4 million underage kids, most have credit cards, and have them send $10 each (on average) to Moveon dot org or directly to the Obama campaign you can 'sand blast' a quick $40 million into your campaign coffers in a hurry. In fact that is exactly what their long term strategy is for this summer's campaign! We are also hearing that this rumor has spread into the college ranks and another false hope is being circulated there that Obama will forgive ALL STUDENT LOANS if he is elected. I knew the folks running Barack's campaign were sleaze bags but this really takes the cake. Word has it that this idea was hatched up by Howard Dean the magic, money making wizard at the DNC! God help us if Obama is elected President!"
GET OUT THE OIL RIGS AND START DRILLING!
An unscientific poll conducted in King, Snohomish and Kitsap Counties on the 5th of July yielded bad news for Greenocrats and Environ-nazi's:
52% of Puget Sound voters favor drilling in Puget Sound, ANWAR, and off the Coast of California to obtain oil for gasoline to drive their cars and trucks. 32% were opposed and 16% were undecided.
The spot poll conducted by a group of high level environmental decision makers from 3 local environmental groups came as such a shock they tried to hide the results.
One of LeCerveau's spies got wind of the poll and secretly e-mailed it to your blogger. Rumor has it that the Futurewise folks were so upset with the poll results that some staffers threatened to quit the organization if the poll were leaked. WELL, GO AHEAD AND QUIT because I just leaked it.
Maybe Futurewise will contribute to the Puget Sound Oil Drilling effort by donating some of that Brainerd cash? HA!
(Note: have some good, juicy stuff? Send it to: JackLecerveau@yahoo.com and do it now!)
BOB BOLARJACK LOSES IT ON EVERETT HERALD EDITORIAL PAGE?
In a rambling, disjointed and totally irrelevant editorial, the Everett Herald once again demonstrates that it is totally out of touch with the people of Snohomish County. While people struggle in traffic because the Chair of the Washington State Senate Transportation Committee, the moron Senator Mary Margaret Haugen continues to stick it to Snohomish County, while corrupt Sno County Government squanders millions of property tax dollars as thousands are on the verge of losing their homes trying to pay those taxes, while people struggle with high record construction unemployment because of extremist land use actions by county Government, off the wall high costs of housing and other major issues that never get published in the Herald...BLOLARJACK goes bonkers over:
DONALD TRUMP'S GOLF COURSE IN SCOTLAND!
Reading this is to understand how far the Herald has fallen into the land of brain dead socialism: http://heraldnet.com/article/20080707/OPINION01/144634033#Trump.tightens.up.his.grip.on.arrogance
Is it really necessary to explain to the Herald editors why they ARE LOSING READERSHIP? Please stop trying to insult our intelligence.
WORST POLL RESULTS FOR CONGRESS IN HISTORY?
The percentage of voters who give Congress good or excellent ratings has fallen to single digits for the first time in Rasmussen Reports tracking history. This month, just 9% say Congress is doing a good or excellent job. Most voters (52%) say Congress is doing a poor job, which ties the record high in that dubious category.
Last month, 11% of voters gave the legislature good or excellent ratings. Congress has not received higher than a 15% approval rating since the beginning of 2008.
The percentage of Democrats who give Congress positive ratings fell from 17% last month to 13% this month. The number of Democrats who give Congress a poor rating remained unchanged. Among Republicans, 8% give Congress good or excellent ratings, up just a point from last month. Sixty-five percent (65%) of GOP voters say Congress is doing a poor job, down a single point from last month.
Voters not affiliated with either party are the most critical of Congressional performance. Just 3% of those voters give Congress positive ratings, down from 6% last month. Sixty-three percent (63%) believe Congress is doing a poor job, up from 57% last month.
Just 12% of voters think Congress has passed any legislation to improve life in this country over the past six months. That number has ranged from 11% to 13% throughout 2008. The majority of voters (62%) say Congress has not passed any legislation to improve life in America.
Voters hold little positive sentiment about the future. Just 41% find it at least somewhat likely that Congress will address important problems facing our nation in the near future, while 55% find this unlikely.

ATTACK ON LAURA BUSH IS OBSCENE!
In an effort to prove just how stupid she is, Curtis Sittenfeld is out with her "American Wife" which is nothing but a fictional account of a First Lady who is a maladjusted, sexually immature and brain dead woman! It is an insult on Laura Bush and is another example of what friends of socialist Barack Obama will do to get this moron elected. Sittenfeld is closely involved with George Saros and a major supporter of Obama.
As one critic said, "It's a cheap hatchet job on the Bush family in an attempt to sell trash books just before the election. Curtis Sittenfeld is a cheap trash writer whose talent could only be described as 'completely lacking'. I was particularly interested in how Curtis was able to write about this character in such detail. Perhaps she is really writing about herself with a story filled with abortions, lesbians, back room sex, lies and a husband who is mentally impaired. I thought the story more closely fit Hillary Clinton!"
RE-NAME BRIGHTWATER SEWAGE PLANT FOR GREGOIRE?
After a California group submitted a proposal Monday to rename a San Francisco sewage treatment plant after President Bush, calling the initiative a fitting tribute to the outgoing chief executive and the "mess" he'll leave behind; local Snohomish County residents near the new Brightwater treatment plant want to name it after Christine Gregoire in honor of the odor expected to cause bad nights for down wind residents: "We have to deal with King County all the time, now we have all their excrement coming into our county as well and the Governor is responsible!" Brightwater is located conveniently on the Snohomish side of highway 522 but most of the 'you know what' will be coming from King County. Hey, let's face it; there is a lot of that smelly stuff over in King County, most of it in Ron Sims' office.
ANY SOUND TRANSIT TAX IS DEAD ON ARRIVAL
That was the word coming down this week from Democratic and Republican Politicians who had a chance to review the latest "RAILS TO NOWHERE" proposal by Sound Transit in another questionable ballot measure to present to voters this fall. Two options are under consideration to fleece voters in Snohomish, King and Pierce counties.
One absurd plan calls for $10.4 billion with inflation to tackle bus, train and light rail projects over the next 12 years. That plan aims to bring light rail to Northgate in King County. If the attorneys and consultants are able to spend money fast enough not one inch of track will be laid and all that money will make those shyster attorneys even richer.
The other bogus plan costs $14.7 billion with inflation that would complete transit projects over 15 years. Its pipe dream would push light rail farther north to Lynnwood by 2023. It was put together as a major gift to the engineering and construction consulting firms who are breaking their necks to give money to the Gargoyle campaign.
Said one LeCerveau Spy: "Voters are already dealing with high gas prices, raising the gas taxes is a joke and most folks already understand what Dino Rossi has been saying about that! This entire exercise is a VERY BAD IDEA!"
ANGRY BOSS SIMS TREATENS PROPERTY OWNERS AND
ENVIRON-NAZI CRACKPOT BRAINERD ALMOST HAS A COW?
After hearing that a three judge state appeals court has overturned King County's entire Critical Areas Ordinance, Boss Sims went on a rampage this week yelling at staffers and generally shouting on the telephone. Why? His brain dead attempt to take over property from property owners in rural King County is now dead!
First words out of Sims' big mouth: "We will pass even more restrictive ordinances to replace the ones overturned." He also warned property owners not to do anything by saying that the ordinance is "still in effect."
That comment and others this week from an upset and disturbed Boss Sims got a howl of laughter from Steve Hammond, former King County Councilman and now head of The Citizens' Alliance for Property Rights (CAPR). "The property owner won today and big government lost!"
Most land use attorneys say that with the ruling property owners can immediately get out their bulldozers and clear the land they own without even bothering to get a permit. "The County would be wise to step down here before there is any real trouble out in the rural areas!" replied one attorney. "We don't need anymore confrontations!"
And what are the real ramifications of this decision: IT OVERTURNS ALL RESTRICTIVE LAND USE ORDINANCES IN THE STATE COUNTY BY COUNTY where the law had no due process!
Word came from Seattle greenie crackpot zillionaire Paul Brainerd's office that he is calling a conference of his expensive trial lawyers. Futurewise and Brainerd's other paid for radical environmental robot organizations will work together to appeal this decision, reported one inside spy for LeCerveau:
"Brainerd is clearly very upset that all the millions of dollars he has spent on politicians like Ron Sims and Christine Gregoire have failed him and his Green Cause. Paul had hoped to eventually take away all property rights from property owners in Snohomish and King County."
On the other side word leaked out today that developers have scheduled a meeting in Everett sometime next week to discuss a major lawsuit against Snohomish County's power crazed bureaucrats who are also pulling a lot of illegal stuff on property owners.
WOW! Don't you just love a good fight! I love to see the green crackpots get kicked in the ass!
Maybe the big CO2 caused global warming con will be next to bite the dust and Al Gore will lose his $800 Million CO2 cap and trade fraud fund.
IS IDAHO MEDIA CONFERENCE REALLY A WAKE?
Media, Internet moguls meet at Idaho luxury retreat, most seeking more online revenue. This is the Allen and Company investment firm's annual retreat at Sun Valley and IT'S UNDERWAY! The big topic of discussion for the likes of Washington Post Company head Donald Graham, E.W. Scripps Co. CEO Kenneth Lowe and Thomson Reuters CEO Thomas Glocer and a score of others including representatives of Murdock of Fox who just bought the Wall Street Journal: "How are we going to make enough money to STAY AFLOAT?"
On-line revenue has come in at a FRACTION of what was expected for ALL of the newspapers and now despondent publishers are having to face the fact the most traditional newspaper advertising in used cars, help wanted, real estate amongst other industry sectors is DEAD and will never come back as a newspaper revenue source!
And what about the secret meetings that will take place? They are even being kept secret as to where they will be and when, so no NEWS will leak out about companies discussing MAJOR LAYOFFS AND CUTBACKS.
Advice from LeCerveau if you are employed by a newspaper: UPDATE YOUR RESUME AND START LOOKING FOR A JOB, YOU MIGHT GET THE AXE TOMORROW MORNING!
EVERETT HERALD IN LIMBO?
The Washington Post has named Marcus W. Brauchli, a former top editor of The Wall Street Journal, as its executive editor. The appointment comes as a new publisher, Katharine Weymouth, starts making changes to try and make the organization profitable. Brauchli became the managing editor of The Journal in May 2007. It was taken over in December by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, and Brauchli resigned under pressure in April. Marcus had been unemployed for two months!
Brauchli will take over a newspaper that has been hit hard by falling ad revenue and circulation. More than 100 newsroom employees recently accepted a buyout at The Post, whose news staff has declined from more than 900 early in this decade to about 700, and several Post executives say they expect the newsroom to shrink further in the next few years.
One major question that Brauchli will have to address is the focus of the Post. He has been charged to make the merger between on line and the published sides of the paper complete, ASAP, according to insiders. Then the question of trimming costs puts the Everett Herald in a delicate position. Industry insiders are speculating as to whether the post will sell the Everett operations to allow them to focus on the real revenue generating side of the business: THE WASHINGTON POST!
CRACKPOT OF THE WEEK FEATURE!
Partly due to suggestions from my e-mail JackLecerveau@yahoo.com, and mainly because I like the idea a whole bunch, Weekly Political News Magazine is coming out with a new feature: THE CRACKPOT OF THE WEEK AWARD which will include a bio, the latest the brain-dead moron has said or done, and all the dirty Lenin I can come up with! Look, send me socialists, commies, crazy Democrats, green whackos, ecology clowns, nuts for animal rights, and anyone else clearly either smoking loco weed, mentally impaired or just completely gone in the head anarchists; we can slam every week. They deserve it, so let's let them know just how much we really care about them. By the way, I will look at suggestions for candidates from the big 4 leftwing obsolete broadcasting consortium (4,5,7, and 13), newspaper jerk editors, and anyone in the far left media. So be creative and send them to me: JackLecerveau@yahoo.com.
