Memory Lane:"Hillary Clinton Refuses to Meet With Gold Star Mothers"
Remember back in 2001 when News Max ran the (since discredited) article that Hillary Clinton had "snubbed" the Gold Star Mothers during their visit to Capital Hill:

http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/blgoldstar.htm

Boy...did the Freepers get their shorts in a knot over that one...and that was FAKE.

Fast forward to 2005 and Bush is refusing FOR REAL to meet with a Gold Star Mother (or soon to be MANY Gold Star Mothers) who is camped out two miles from his Investment Real Estate in Crawford (Sorry...No Cattle, No Ranch); and the Freeper response: Attack the Gold Star Mother.

Sometimes the hypocrisy of the Right Wing is just... Breathtaking!

3. Good point--I'd forgotten about this one.
I too stand in awe of the righties' hypocrisy not to mention their idiocy. Breathtaking and mind-blowing. What fools those mortals be!

4. I would bet there are some cattle
There is a sizable exemption here in Texas if you have a "herd". I know that under the law a "herd" could be as few as two animals. I can't imagine an individual like * missing out on that one.

Perhaps we might find out if he claimed that exemption and see if he is actually entitled to it.

5. Isn't it a pig farm/ranch?
Appropriate, I believe.
