While it's fair to say the announcement from
Winfield proclaiming his candidacy is welcome,
we have to wonder what exactly he stands for?
In his opening address
we see him proclaiming if you've got problems,
he'll address them
but he never explains how he'll fix them
and by doing so how it
will affect our budget.
Which would make me assume he may
be lying to us to further out cause, so residents of Atlasia all I
can say is that before casting your ballot, make sure who you
know who you really are voting for.

Thank you for your extremely biased and completely misleading anti Winfield campaign ad.

As a newspaperman, you of all people should know that campaigns release details of their platforms in stages, not in one all encompassing monologue.

7/1/2003

Is electing Winfield a threat to out national stability?

Just who is Winfield and why does he want to be president? And if we elect him, what will stop his crazy ways?

If his recent respond to the Weekly News is any indication, one may assume Winfield has gone crazy. His un-provoked attack on our paper for outing his flawed campaign has clearly shown he cannot take criticism, and when as an elected official you're a criticized from all angles one must wonder is he really fit to lead us?

And one must wonder if taking such an aggressive approach what must his foreign policy be like!? But who would know, it's not like he's prepared to tell us.

more to come later.

Is Kim Kardashian a potential presidential candidate?

Kim Kardashian the millionaire influential business women with millions of Twitter followers and Facebook fans could be our next president. Source close to the celebrity have been making noises that she may run believing she will best lead the nation through it's economic troubles, and when considering she's been so successful in her business ventures I'd almost suggest she may be just what the doctor ordered.

However such a campaign would obviously be extremely scandalous, from her infamous sextape which is now regarded as one of the most watched internet videos to her disaster 72 day marriage to Kris Humpheries we must wonder what a Kardashian presidency would look like.

And then we must consider what would she run on, is she a conservative, a liberal, a libertarian or just a plain centrist. One things for sure is that if we've learnt anything from her show is that she supports gay rights and likes to wear furs. None the less, it'd make for a interesting campaign.

So now the senators want to eat my dogs?



The new Freedom to Eat Act will be a disaster for all dog owners as it provides no assurances those that eat neighbors pets will be charged. The act is a repeal of laws that protect dogs from being eaten, while we should be able to eat dogs just like we eat cows and sheep this bill fails in protecting my pet dog and makes no not of differentiating between a pet and between livestock. So it has me wondering, if the senate can't protect my pet what can they do?

I believe your pet would be your property, and thus your crazy neighbors would at least be thieves for doing so.

Cattle rustling is a capital offense and frequently resulted in lynching in much of the West; I believe it's still on the books in the state of Texas. Hell, we once fought a war cause of cattle rustling.

Don't worry, Winfield is getting nowhere near winning. John would never want this and we all know victory of Engleism is historical inevitability.

We will just laugh at this pompous little paranoid jerk wannabe journalist as he spews his obvious intolerance and hatred for democracy, while at the same time he demonstrates his clear ignorance and stupidity.

He's like a pesky little fly really, or maybe more like a disgusting cockroach living in dark, dank corners, in filthy, dilapidated buildings, which would explain his psychotic behavior.

This doesn't hold a candle to Our paper. We really need to publish a new issue pronto. The paper wars with JBrase didn't last very long.

You weren't around for the Rag. That was Atlasia's best paper.

AIDS LEADS ALL IN SOUTH CAROLINA


(C) Associated Press


(Charleston, S.C.) New compilation of Gallup and Rasmussen polls shows AIDS leading fellow presidential candidates by a double digit margin.

He is just a preferable alternative to them all, Bill Martin, Charleston resident, told our correspondent.

I don't trust any politician, AIDS or not, Betty Wilson, Greenville housewife, commented. But I'd rather get along with AIDS than with the others.

Richard James, a software executive from Florence, admits he's for AIDS only because his preferred candidate declined to run.

I really wish I could choose Arsenic Poison instead, he complained.

Election News
CATHCON WINS ZOGBY POLL


(C) IBOPE Zogby International


Cathcon wins Zogby poll, gathering 70% of the vote to his nearest competitor, Lizard People.

We couldn't reach Mr. Cathcon for comment of this final blow to his credibility. Shortly after results were published, he stopped answering his phone and apparently deleted his Facebook profile.

According to commentators, Zogby poll may also help Marokai Blue establish a momentum, after he captured total of 0 votes, which was already hailed as a major moral victory.

The eagerness of see some people to see dogs eaten is morally unsettling.
