McCain/Palin Campaigning In Ohio

John McCain and Sarah Palin campaigned in Lebanon, Ohio Tuesday and wowed the crowd reported to be more than 5,000. I estimated the crowd much larger. Inside security the downtown street was jam packed and there were thousands more outside security listening from afar.

The crowd was diverse with some that were obviously not what would normally be considered Republicans, a large number of veterans proudly wearing hats, jackets, etc identifying themselves as veterans and a ton of women chanting, "Sa-Rah."

Anthony Munoz warmed up the crowd as well as Rob Portman, Mike Dewine and others. In spite of heavy rains leading up to the event the crowd was pumped and very enthusiastic. Munoz, a USC graduate took some ribbing over the upcoming OSU/USC football game and gave up when the band started playing 'Hang On Sloopy'. The entire crowd cheered and sang along. (My son would have mesmerized those surrounding us with his B-52 voice, but he was working in Columbus and studying towards his second degree at OSU.)

A rumble went through the crowd as the people in windows and on the balcony spied McCain and Palin entering the area and broke into cheers of 'Sa-Rah', John Mc-Cain' and 'USA'. It literally sent chills to see and hear people as they strained to catch a glimpse of the nominees while cheering wildly. Rumors of Ohio turning purple or blue seemed far-fetched.

Palin spoke first, commenting that 12 Presidents, numerous Senators, House members, Supreme Court members and foreign dignitaries had all walked through the doors of the 200 year old Golden Lamb Hotel asking the crowd to make John McCain the 13th President to do so. As she spoke, constantly interrupted with cheers and chants, I watched in awe as the crowd focused intently to hear and understand her words. A campaigner's dream not often realized.

As Palin finished and McCain started to speak, the crowd began chanting "John Mc-Cain" over and over. As he made each point, the crowd inched closer applauding and cheering and chanting "zero" each time Biden or Obama were mentioned. McCain brought his A game to this event and the crowd loved it.

The day was far from over as I and the people I drove down went to local events to organize grass root efforts far different from the astro-turfing efforts of the Obama team. At these events it was ironic to hear for the first time of Obama's lipstick slap down comment against Palin so soon after seeing so many signs at the rally for 'Lipstick Moms', 'Lipstick Ladies', etc. That is what happens when you have an ex-professor in charge of a national campaign. Axlerod's ivory tower mendacity is beginning to really hurt Obama.

At each event I had the pleasure of meeting past and future campaign compatriots that are doers, not just talkers. In short order networks were setup to stretch across the state to counter the union/special interest groups bringing in paid out-of-staters to undermine the electoral process in Ohio in an effort to ensure an Obama victory.

Oh, there was a person who tried to disrupt the McCain/Palin rally, but instead of people getting mad, they laughed at the poor guy who slinked away embarrassed. Kinda wraps up the two campaigns right now.

UPDATE: Gateway Pundit has the story on the pitiful rally Obama had in Ohio near the McCain Palin rally.

Words Of Racism About Obama

'Community Organizer' Just One More Way To Say Black
"I think the Republican Party is too smart to call Barack Obama 'black' in a sense that it would be a negative. But you can take something about his life, which I noticed they did at the Republican Convention – a 'community organizer.' They kept saying it, they kept laughing," he said.

If community organizer is racist, how about other words?

Criminal - racist
Welfare - racist
Poor - racist
Equality - racist
Diversity - racist
Others?

Uh-oh, I'm seeing a pattern here where words that describe a problem can't be used because somebody somewhere is going to yell 'racist'.

Biden's Cut & Run History Killed Millions

From the WSJ via Daled Amos

Jabbering Joe isn't just the 3rd most liberal Senator, his liberal voting has cost millions of people, like you and me and our children, their lives.

Biden Was Wrong On the Cold War
In fact, decade after decade and on important issue after important issue, Mr. Biden's judgment has been deeply flawed.

In the 1970s, Mr. Biden opposed giving aid to the South Vietnamese government in its war against the North. Congress's cut-off of funds contributed to the fall of an American ally, helped communism advance, and led to mass death throughout the region. Mr. Biden also advocated defense cuts so massive that both Edmund Muskie and Walter Mondale, both leading liberal Democrats at the time, opposed them.

In the early 1980s, the U.S. was engaged in a debate over funding the Contras, a group of Nicaraguan freedom fighters attempting to overthrow the Communist regime of Daniel Ortega. Mr. Biden was a leading opponent of President Ronald Reagan's efforts to fund the Contras. He also opposed Reagan's efforts to send military assistance to the pro-American government in El Salvador, which at the time was battling the FMLN, a Soviet-supported Marxist group.

Throughout his career, Mr. Biden has consistently opposed modernization of our strategic nuclear forces. He was a fierce opponent of Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative. Mr. Biden voted against funding SDI, saying, "The president's continued adherence to [SDI] constitutes one of the most reckless and irresponsible acts in the history of modern statecraft." Mr. Biden has remained a consistent critic of missile defense and even opposed the U.S. dropping out of the Antiballistic Missile Treaty after the collapse of the Soviet Union (which was the co-signatory to the ABM Treaty) and the end of the Cold War.

In 1990, Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait and, we later learned, was much closer to attaining a nuclear weapon than we had believed. President George H.W. Bush sought war authorization from Congress. Mr. Biden voted against the first Gulf War, asking: "What vital interests of the United States justify sending Americans to their deaths in the sands of Saudi Arabia?"

In 2006, after having voted three years earlier to authorize President George W. Bush's war to liberate Iraq, Mr. Biden argued for the partition of Iraq, which would have led to its crack-up. Then in 2007, Mr. Biden opposed President Bush's troop surge in Iraq, calling it a "tragic mistake." It turned out to be quite the opposite. Without the surge, the Iraq war would have been lost, giving jihadists their most important victory ever.

On many of the most important and controversial issues of the last four decades, Mr. Biden has built a record based on bad assumptions, misguided analyses and flawed judgments. If he had his way, America would be significantly weaker, allies under siege would routinely be cut loose, and the enemies of the U.S. would be stronger.

There are few members of Congress whose record on national security matters can be judged, with the benefit of hindsight, to be as consistently bad as Joseph Biden's. It's true that Sarah Palin has precious little experience in national security affairs. But in this instance, no record beats a manifestly bad one.

People all over the world would be terrified if a man like Biden were to be elected to the second highest office in America.

Media Really PO'd That 'The One' Is Two

The New York Times reporting on September 5, 2008 by Michael A, Cohen, expert on political campaigns and political speeches.

McCain Missed the Mark
There is still much to happen between now and Election Day. One can likely expect to see Mr. McCain receive a convention bounce over the next few days. In fact, it would hardly be surprising for public opinion surveys to show a neck-and-neck race. But, this temporary jump in the polls for Mr. McCain may be ephemeral. Having been given the opportunity to offer a rousing vision for his candidacy, Mr. McCain’s speech last night was a missed opportunity to reframe the 2008 campaign on his own terms.

A recap of September 8, 2008 campaign news.

Climate Change: Meat & Animal Poofs As Saviors

Methane. Gassy gold. Flatulence may be what keeps us warm in the coming Ice Age. Wait, I'm confused. Are we getting too hot, too cold or porridge-pot just right? I don't know and I am pretty sure the groups espousing one way or another don't know either, but somebody is gonna make money either which way it goes. Gore, for all his flatulence, has never to my knowledge belched that we have to stop eating meat one day a week. Talk about bad timing, what with a Moose killer on the ticket as a VP.

The UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation has estimated that meat production accounts for nearly a fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions. These are generated during the production of animal feeds, for example, while ruminants, particularly cows, emit methane, which is 23 times more effective as a global warming agent than carbon dioxide. The agency has also warned that meat consumption is set to double by the middle of the century.

'In terms of immediacy of action and the feasibility of bringing about reductions in a short period of time, it clearly is the most attractive opportunity,' said Pachauri. 'Give up meat for one day [a week] initially, and decrease it from there,' said the Indian economist, who is a vegetarian.

Okay, a vegetarian from a country that worships beef wants us to have a meatless day, kinda like those loony Catholics with their fishy Friday. Do fish poof?

Does this mean that Dr Rajendra Pachauri is going to start cold-turkey one day a week with out beans?

Flags Found In Trash Called Political Stunt By Obama Campaign

Just like unborn babies, Democrats throw flags in the trash.

McCain Camp ‘Rescues’ Flags From Obama Rally
McCain supporters said the flags were discovered by a vendor at Denver’s Invesco Field after the conclusion of the Democratic National Convention. The vendor supposedly found trash bags full of flags in and near garbage bins, and turned them over to the McCain campaign.

Boy Scouts were sorting through 84 bags of flags in Colorado on Saturday, before a McCain supporter had veterans distribute them to the audience.
...

Damon Jones, spokesman for the Democratic National Convention Committee, released a statement saying McCain should applaud the fact that thousands of American flags were “proudly waved” at their convention.

“But instead his supporters wrongfully took leftover bundles of our flags from the stadium to play out a cheap political stunt calling into question our patriotism,” he said.

Yes, we all should applaud the fact that Obama supporters attempted to show patriotism. That is a start. A poor one, but a start, none the less. And mean old McCain people just had to bring up the flag/trash thing. Some of those mean old people brought up the law, ethics and patriotism in an apparent attempt to show that Democrats displayed none of them.

Flags in the trash. Used once. For a couple of seconds. For TV. And then, with out honor, dumped in and near the trash. And Republicans had the bad taste to point this out. Too soon.

Talk about spoiling a special moment. At least it wasn't another abortion.

Oprah Is Playing The Women Of America For Fools

A lot of people have talked about Oprah refusing to have Gov. Sarah Palin on her show. (From The Drudge Report) Now Oprah has released a state of explanation:

"The item in today's Drudge Report is categorically untrue. There has been absolutely no discussion about having Sarah Palin on my show. At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over."

How unfortunate that Oprah thinks her audience stupid. I do not watch the show, but I have heard good things about it from women with whom I am friends. These friends smirk when told about Oprahs point of view and rightfully so because Oprah is now part of the media, is black like Obama and is playing her audience like fools circling her Maypole.

Palin appearing would make her part of the campaign? Yeah, like she isn't in Obama's campaign up to her armpits. Obama's appearance was a campaign appearance. Oprah's endorsement of Obama is just as much campaigning for him as that appearance and the appearance Oprah made on his behalf.

Oprah is too smart by half on this one which is surprising for a person that has appeared so savvy. Maybe she now has so much money she she feels she can roll the dice for the whole thing on behalf of Obama or maybe she doesn't care. Whichever.

Making your audience appear foolish is a dumb idea, especially doing so by connivance and two faced bald lying.

Obama Still Against Surge That Worked, Can't Anticipate Thinking...Differently

Obama, in an anticipated moment he could envision in front of the camera, might have written these words just for Bill and the interview.

Anticipation:
And I tell you how easy it feels to be with you
And how right your arms feel around me
But I, I rehearsed those lines just late last night
When I was thinkin' about how right tonight might be

On FOX
I think that the surge has succeeded in ways that nobody anticipated,” Obama said while refusing to retract his initial opposition to the surge. “I’ve already said it’s succeeded beyond our wildest dreams.”

"Nobody anticipated"? Once again Obama shows his ignorance of governance and military planning which is a key part of the job he wants.

Liberals raked Petraeus and Bush over the coals precisely because they did anticipate the outcome and success of the surge. "General Betyrayus" and "McBusHitler" were terms the leftists bandied about then, but they seem ignorant of the possibilities of Obama being "Iraq Barack" and just too McStupid to be president.

Obama Is A Day Late & A Dollar Short

At least he finally said it even if he really doesn't believe it.

Obama: Surge Succeeded Beyond 'Wildest Dreams'...

and it succeeded in spite of Obama and his ilk.

Obama Needs A Surge For Chicago!

I doubt the "O" will condone a surge because he still believes them to fail.

Bloody Summer In City: 125 Dead In Chicago, Double Number Killed In Iraq...

Chicago, the new Anbar province, but with violence, appears to be in a civil war and Obama needs to meet with the different factions with no pre-conditions. Maybe Chicago and Illinois need new leadership and to be split up into three states so as to decentralize the violence into different areas. You know, just to protect citizens unable to govern and protect themselves from themselves and each other. It's out of control and probably lost. Forever.

Liberal Media's Goose Gander Problem

From Victor David Hanson

Two nations….
The Geraldine Ferraro Democratic Vice Presidential nominee appointment was an inspired stroke of genius that advanced the cause of feminism; Palin’s was tawdry tokenism.

Edwards was a social reformer brought down by the tabloids; Palin’s 17-year-old daughter is white trash and fair game.

Insulting “small town mayors” and “good looking” women is funny; suggesting that “community organizing” is often a farce is a felony.

Obama’s violation of drug laws with a “little blow” was youthful exuberance; Palin’s husband’s DUI was more proof of a working-class messy family.

Joe Biden bravely continued as Senator after the tragic death of his wife and daughter left his injured young sons with a single parent; Sarah Palin selfishly shorted her children by running for VP and endangered her infants by flying while pregnant.

Criticizing Clinton’s engaging in sex in the oval office and lying about it to the American people were once “the politics of personal destruction”; lying that Sarah Palin might not have been the mother of her 5th child is the mere overreach of the blogs caused by the improper vetting of the McCain campaign.

This all reminds me of the 2000 campaign when the media beat the dead-horse of Bush (Yale BA, Harvard MBA) as the lousy, lazy C-student, when, in fact, Al Gore’s undergraduate record at Harvard was full of C’s, F’s at Vanderbilt Divinity School (dropped out), and C’s at Vanderbilt Law School (dropped out). The point is not that quitting professional schools is necessarily a sign of anything, but rather once again that the media is shown to be bending and inventing facts for their higher purposes of liberal utopianism— a continuation of some half a century when we remember the “dumb” Ike floundering before the “brilliant” and “witty” Adlai Stevenson (who flunked out of Harvard Law School, a fact hidden from the public for decades.)

In a nutshell example, any Republican woman must have slept with the boss to get a promotion, but Sally Quinn actually got her's by sheer brilliance and fortitude.

The War That Obama Liberals Totally Missed

General Betrayus, the surge will be, is and was a total failure, divide the little brown people's country into 3 parts to save them from themselves, RETREAT, RETREAT, RETREAT with honor.

Legislating failure is a messy business when there are those who can see clearly and are dogging cowardly lies as they slither through the halls of Congress and the campaigns of fools.

50 million people are now free. 50 million human beings were under the murderous thumb of dictatorships. What we have done in Iraq and Afghanistan would be comparable to freeing the 48,766,935 people of northeastern United States:

CT
DE
ME
MD
MA
NH
NJ
NY
RI
VT

The media, liberals (same thing) and the Democratic leadership in Congress have lied to the citizens of the U.S. throughout the entire effort.

Below is a letter from Major Thomas Sadiq, via Miserable Doughnuts, which speaks to the truth about what is happening in Iraq:

Hello,

I am about to leave MNSTC-I. I have worked closely with you during our time together as we helped the Nation of Iraq develop. I thank you all for the time and effort you expended on my behalf.

I volunteered for the deployment, and it’s been a long road. Let me tell you what has changed since I arrived. I’ve been through the days when we were told we had lost. The Senate voted on a resolution to divide Iraq into three parts. Foreign Affairs ran an article asking not if Iraq had been lost, but attempting to place blame on who lost it. General Petraeus was belittled in the press and in the halls of Congress, and the surge was deemed destined to fail by many. We’ve been though the days when steel rained from the sky, when some said that the best option was to plaster bomb Sadr city and slaughter all those inside. But we didn’t, and have emerged from that trial bloodied but stronger, and with our integrity intact.

We were told that Muslims in general and Iraqis in particular lacked the genetic makeup for democracy, that such an egalitarian form of government was be reserved for those born in the western hemisphere. Yet, in the end, the abiding wisdom of our Founding Fathers rang out: For there are still those among us who committed to the idea that certain truths are self-evident, that all men are created equal, that theyare endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among theseare Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Welcome to the new Republic of Iraq.

I cannot predict what will happen in the next year, but I am sure that your efforts will continue the progress that has been made. Nation building is not easy, nor for the faint of heart.

There will be a brief good-bye ceremony at the MNSTC-I flag pole at 1500 today. If you cannot make it, I wish you health and safety as you complete your tour and travel home.

Goodbye,
Maj Thomas Sadiq

To liberals the above is a lie. To them Sadiq's words cannot be true because they don't fit into their reality based world. The reality is that liberals have totally missed this war of liberation from Islamofascists and Sodamned Insane. To liberals, I suppose an enslaved New England wouldn't be worth fighting for.

How sad for all freedom loving people.

Steinem: Hoary Woman, Hoary Message

Palin: wrong woman, wrong message
Sarah Palin shares nothing but a chromosome with Hillary Clinton. She is Phyllis Schlafly, only younger.
By Gloria Steinem

Palin must be a nightmare to a Steinem because Palin actually accomplishes things. Moving beyond invective must scare the hell out of them.

Biden: Obama May Make Criminal Charges Against Bush

Credit card Biden may pursue criminal charges against President Bush in an attempt to harness the violent protesters at the Republican convention to the Obama campaign for president. Nothing warms the heart of a bomb thrower like the image of George Bush in handcuffs being duck walked to a police van.

Democratic vice-presidential nominee Joe Biden said yesterday that he and running mate Barack Obama could pursue criminal charges against the Bush administration if they are elected in November.

Biden's comments, first reported by ABC news, attracted little notice on a day dominated by the drama surrounding his Republican counterpart, Alaska governor Sarah Palin.

But his statements represent the Democrats' strongest vow so far this year to investigate alleged misdeeds committed during the Bush years.

"If there has been a basis upon which you can pursue someone for a criminal violation, they will be pursued," Biden said during a campaign event in Deerfield Beach, Florida, according to ABC.
"[N]ot out of vengeance, not out of retribution," he added, "out of the need to preserve the notion that no one, no attorney general, no president -- no one is above the law."

Maybe Jabbering Joe's son can lobby for indictment support in congress.

Laughable Media II

CNN is running a 'people on the street' schtick asking who is Sarah Palin.

Program scheduling can come back and bite one in the butt. Of course on the spot production might show some intelligence, but that may not occur to CNN.

Lipstick

Palin off script: Difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick.

Wonderful.

Palin, OUTSTANDING!!! HOME RUN!!!

Watch out Jabbering Joe. Better duck Barack Hamas Obama.

Palin is IN town.

Ballpark. Wall. Gone. Home Run.

Giuliani: Obama Just Present

130 times Obama couldn't make up his mind. 130 times he cast no vote, just a "present."

What if during the Cuban Missile Crisis Kennedy, instead of making decisions, stated he was "present"?

What if Reagan stood in front of the Brandenburg Gate and the communist wall dividing Berlin and, instead saying "tear down this wall", just said "present"?

Hey, Barack baby, can we talk? Showing up for work is just the first step. You gotta make some decisions, not just organize the pencils and paper clips. You have to, you know, make a decision.

UPDATE: Biden better get that VP thing in writing from flip-flopping Obama.

The Freak Show Known As Media Is A laughing Stock

via This Ain't Hell

The Wall Street Journal has a story up about the media's tradition of steamrolling candidates, such as Sarah Palin, that they don't like through ridicule, falsehoods, malicious innuendo and lies. This is the media that smirks about its power in the salons of urban oases amidst the crumbling jungle they helped create. Well, the power they hold so dearly is crumbling and as tin he last days of the Roamn Empire, we witness delusionary flights of power and self importance. Really, Sally "Bradley Bunch" Quinn and Elanor Smelanor Clift? How sad.

Here is a sampler of media comment on Governor Palin this week:
- Eleanor Clift, the McLaughlin Group: "If the media reaction is anything, it's been literally laughter in many places across newsrooms."

- Sally Quinn, Newsweek: "It is a political gimmick . . . I find it insulting to women, to the Republican party, and to the country."

- E.J. Dionne, Washington Post: "Palin is, if anything, less qualified for the vice presidency (and the presidency) than [Harriet] Miers was for the court. But there is one big difference: Palin passes all the right-wing litmus tests."

- Maureen Dowd, New York Times: "They have a tradition of nominating fun, bantamweight cheerleaders from the West."

- Ruth Marcus, Washington Post: "But as a parent in the media, I also know that the Palins assumed this risk. Anyone who watched coverage of the Bush twins' barroom exploits knew that the avert-your-eyes stance toward candidates' children has its limits."

- Charlie Cook, Beltway pundit, on PBS's "Charlie Rose": "I had a friend that had a young person tell them that they had three interviews to get a job as a server at Ruby Tuesday! So this is like putting a whole -- for someone that hasn't played on a national -- Geraldine Ferraro had more -- Dan Quayle had undergone more scrutiny, had played on a bigger stage than this. This is putting an enormous risk on someone he didn't know. And he has to just pray that it works!"

Our media has become a laughing stock. In a world of constant checks and balances done in giga bytes these losers are still bragging about buying ink by the barrel. What a waste of ink. What a waste of barrels.

Media Should Be Ridiculed For Blatant Obama Campaigning

For liberals, conservatives can't ever be black enough, female enough or caring enough, so why should they expect to have positive stories in the media. Only liberals can be black enough, even if they're white, female enough, even if they're a pale male or caring enough as they pontificate from their limos or ivory towers. Actually, I think only liberals are chic enough.

Webutante nails it.

Disgraceful, Cannibal Journalism
THE AUDACITY OF THE DOUBLE STANDARDThe utter despicable double standard and hypocrisy with which the pro-feminist MSM is approaching John McCain's VP pick Sarah Palin is making a shocking new low in American journalism even at a time of perpetual lows.

CNN's PMSing cannibal journalist Campbell Brown, who has a one-year-old baby at home, dripping with jealousy and invective, having a tirade on CNN is the first case in point. Former homewrecker (who couldn't write yet made her way to the top by 'dating' Ben Bradley) Sally Quinn writing her new holier-than-thou religion column for the WAPO is another. Both are shrews and divas who cannot stand, cannot stand, the thought of a non-elitist woman being elected VP. These cannibal journalists whole heartedly support an empty suit with little experience like community organizer Obama. Maybe it's a father fixation.Yet a woman with experience as a wife, mother, mayor, an executive, a governor simply doesn't count. If it's not the lowest point in American journalism, I don't know what can bottom it.

READ the rest.

The Collapse of the F**ktarded Party
Warren Stupidity (1000+ posts)
On the anniversary of Katrina, Gustav, the storm that wasn't, failed to flood New Orleans while concurrently a shitstorm of revelations about the dysfunctional redneck fundamentalist frontier hockey super mom Palin, everywoman if you shoot your own breakfast and believe in keeping your teenage daughter ignorant of the basics of birth control and free enough to discover the consequences of that ignorance all on her own, has flooded the GOP's presidential convention with so much embarrassingly bad news that they have become a global joke.

And that was just day one of their convention. I am glued to my computer eagerly awaiting day two of the Washington Hillbillies meet Darth Vader. The F**ktarded Party has become a Reality Show Super Spectacular!

I'm not really sure how such a superior person can deign to live amongst such lesser people. It must be trying for him, but he has 1,000+ posts to assuage his rage. He'll always have that.

As the reduced Republican Convention gets under way and Republican delegates, officials and leaders help those affected by the hurricanes in the gulf and the south, Democrats, leftists and progressives protesters in Minnealpolis try to make their pathetic points that Republicans are heartless.

Obama has an anvil around his neck and that anvil has a name, Democrats.

Protesters smashed windows, punctured car tires and threw bottles Monday during an anti-war march to the site of the Republican National Convention.

The left has arrived at a point where even the blind can see that they are unworthy to be listened to for any reason.

This is your party Obama. These are your supporters.

How low will they go? As low as they feel necessary to win, because they must win at al costs.

Obama Hates All Success But His

He did it his way, using other's money and guilt to become a millionaire in a millionaire's house bought with other people's money. Harsh? Not really, not when he questions his opponent and the money his opponent's wife has. Her money. Cindy's money. Money her parents worked hard to leave her. It's people like Cindy McCain that Obama thinks should fund people like him to get wealthy. Typical Liberal/Progressive, aka Socialist.

It's also sexist when Obama attacks McCain implying McCain should know his wife's business. It's also sexist of Obama to imply that he would know what investments his wife has. As if it's not just his right, but his duty to know. Typical again.

Cindy McCain fired back and, typically, liberals will offer up crap like they're offended by her wealth or some self righteous variation, but it comes down to hate. Hate that she has it and they don't.

Cindy McCain tells Stephanopoulos that Obama Offended Her

Maybe later Cindy will address some of the his "Os" lies about McCain and his stances and go after Obama's false numbers and lies about Republicans and America in general. I think that's called a campaign. Especially since the media is refreshing their lipstick for another day of kissing butt to lie about Obama and attacking all success, but their own. Just like Obama.

Stephanopoulos wears Ruby Red.

Fox news is reporting that Gov. Sarah Palin, R-AK is McCain's VP pick upstaging Obama, hurting his chances with women voters and once again making Democrats a day late and a dollar short in terms of significant advances for women in politics.

Luce-Booth
Chase-Smith
Novello
O'Conner
Rice
Hutchinson
Dole
Kirkpatrick
Chase

Just to start.

UPDATE: On a related note, Johnny Edwards has upped his speaking fees to $65K per speech since his love child.

UPDATE II: I'm laughing my tail off listening to Democrats trashing Palin as not up to the challenge, not enough experience, a ploy, etc. Hurts when you've been one upped, eh? Just like Democrats gave only lip service to equality for blacks, they have done so with women as well. Walk the walk boys, don't just talk.

UPDATE III: CNN & MSNBC along with the "O" people are pounding on the 'God forbid, but what if McCain dies from one of his many, many health problems???' Of course, God forbid, if something happens to Obama, pork is locked in as the permanent currency of a Biden White House. Think $3 trillion to Delaware for infrastructure. Another $10 trillion for rainy days.

OOPS! ABC was reporting:
ABC News' Kate McCarthy Reports: As vice presidential speculation swirls, Gov. Sarah Palin is watching the fireworks from her home in Wasilla, Alaska. Some reporter will be covering corn festival for a while.

UPDATE III: Did you know (X's 100) that John McCain is 72 today and that woman will be just a heart beat away from the presidency????????

Jimmy Carter Still The Worst President

Actually, Carter is a bad person and dumb enough to keep that way.

Carter: McCain 'milking' POW time...

Carter: Bill Clinton 'hurt his wife's candidacy'...

Carter; Poster boy for the Peter Principle.

McCain's VP

Romney - out
Pawlenty - out

Palin - ?

Obama's Differences With McCain, DNC Speech

Listening closely one could cull the differences between McCain and Obam as described by Obama

McCain - Duty, service and sacrifice.

Obama - privilege, gratification and entitlement

DNC Palooza Greek Night - TOGA!

Michael McDonald, aka Ray the Mimic Charles, III, is opening tonight's political drama with patriotic music dedicating America the Beautiful to all those in hopes of getting their country back. Patriotic, that's a change, right? How special.

Cut to a capitalist series of ads.

UPDATE: Jabbering Joe just came out and gave his Wednesday night Bingo speech that he usually gives at a union hall somewhere on the Jersey shore just across the Delaware state line. Can't look too far for votes. Joe don't need no stinkin' borders, but the seven hour old crowd needed some entertainment. After Joe's lies last night Bozo made himself scarce.

Dennis the Menace is on FOX scaring children and the logical. His jeans look nice.

Despite Denny's sense of Liberte', more ads.

[ABC, NBC, CBS are showing football. Typical]

They're saying that it took people 3 - 4 hours to get in and get a seat, kinda like Democrat health care.

Little Dick Durbin is warming up the crowd.

The video is beginning, the dry ice is ready, It's SHOWTIME!!

VIDEO: A masterful mix of Ken Burns-lite like fact and fiction pumping the Obama into a giant. Big on how great momma and her family was and America is (when Michelle ain't around to be unproud).

The messiah has entered.

Phew! He accepted the nomination.

Now he's thanking the drunk, Mr. Spunck and the punk for their talks at the DNC.

[chant] It's Bush's fault. All of it.

America sucks, veterans sleeping on the streets, etc. ENOUGH!

Obama: Bush/Cheney are asking for another term, but he never liked Eight is Enough.

INSERT: Kind words about McCain, but make as many cheap shots and lies about McCain as possible.

Obama is warming up now, really turning on the preacher patios using bogus financial and economic figures. (lies, damned lies and statistics)

Whew, The Audacity of Hope, Cliff Notes edition.

Look out, we got change ahead.

No lobbyists
No tax breaks except for union companies
Cut taxes for 95% of America
No dependence on oil in 10 years
Will end our addiction to oil
Natural gas, clean coal and nuclear power
New fuels, new cars
A new world class education for all (just like his and Michelle's)
A new army of teachers with higher pay
Public service corp or military gets you education foe every single American
Give Congress' health care benefits to all
Make insurance companies pay
Paid days off for everything
Equal pay for all

Gee, this is going to cost what? Obama has a plan to make corps pay and cut waste in govt as he goes line-by-line through the federal budget (by himself)

Moral independence, more insulation, more ladders, more responsibility for parents to do homework.

OBAMA: I'll be a better commander in chief. I really wanted to go after those pecky terrorists while McCain is a wuss who won't even follow bin Laden to his cave. RETREAT! RETREAT! Iraq has the bucks and McCain wants to keep spending money.

Obama knows how to deter and defeat all the bad guys in the world. McCain doesn't. republicans have squandered thelegacy that the Democrats so tiressly built. Obama understands troops and their needs better. RETREAT! RETREAT! Sit down and talk with dictators and talk Iran out of getting the nuclear weapons they already have. He is the messiah after all.

Now the Obama is gettin hot Democrats are just as patriotic as Repubs, so he has news for you John McCain,.....WE ALL PUT OUR COUNTRY FIRST!!!!!!!!!!

AK47's are not part of the first amendment. We disagree about abortion, but we all want less pregnancy. Gays same rights.

Republicans are scaring people, are full of stale ideals and no vision, but even though I'm inexperienced, have a funny name and am (hush BLACK), I am the best nominee because of you and the politics of the past. If it's worked for 200 years, fuggeddaboutit. CHANGE! CHANGE!

He's back on his myths about his work in Ill.

Now he's plagerizing Ronald Reagan and MLK to do his spirit schtick heading to the finish!!!!!!

Obama is moving into his MLK voice building to the BIG finish (bring in God, America, soldiers, spirit) and gear up the Brooks & Dunn.

There should be firworks.

OMG! Here comes the fireworks!! and Jabbering Joe for group hugs on stage for the AP & the NYTs so somebody will look tomorrow.

Movie trailer music (Remember the Titans), confetti and flags everywhere. I must surely have the vapors.

The crowd is mesmerized. Little baracks coming in nine months.

Albrecht Speers would have been proud this very night. What a production!

Now it's time to add up the tab regardless of whether any of this is possible. Lucy got some splainin to do on her shoppin. Gon be spensive.

Cue up "Born in the USA" (Good Lord I have grown so tired of that song).

Wrap up; The same old tired Democrat/Liberal speech, but done very well. Very well indeed, but pudding without substance done very well is still just pudding without substance done very well.

Obama's Terrorist Past Comes Back To Haunt His Critics

Barack Obama, who touts his 'change', is nothing but a minor bully in a large playground of people unafraid of him or the thugs with which he has surrounded himself. He has no change. Everything in his playbook is old hat except he is a tad better at demagoguery than most. Oh, his disdain for the First Amendment is more open than most. That's change, I guess.

Obama campaign confronts WGN radio
On Wednesday evening, Obama's campaign urged supporters to call the radio station to complain.

"Tell WGN that by providing Kurtz with airtime, they are legitimizing baseless attacks from a smear-merchant and lowering the standards of political discourse," the note said.

"It is absolutely unacceptable that WGN would give a slimy character assassin like Kurtz time for his divisive, destructive ranting on our public airwaves," the note continued. "At the very least, they should offer sane, honest rebuttal to every one of Kurtz's lies."

Zack Christenson, executive producer of "Extension 720 with Milt Rosenburg," said the response was strong.

"I would say this is the biggest response we've ever got from a campaign or a candidate," he said.

"This is really unprecedented with the show, the way that people are flooding the calls and our email boxes."

Christenson said the Obama campaign was asked to have someone appear on the show and declined the request. (emp. mine)

I say that Obama is still plotting and planning with his old terrorist friend, Bill Ayers. The only question for me is how many more Ayers are there inside the campaign and hiding in the shadows.

Cast For Obama's Greek Traedy At Invesco Theater

As nations, dictators, Islamfascists, unions and the Democrat Party anxiously wait for the opening curtain, the Obama campaign's presumed cast for this evening's performance has been anonymously released.

Luminaries from around the globe have poured into Denver in hopes of a role or, at the least, to be seen in the glow of the coronation. Caligula was overheard, "Let them drink Pepsi!"

Though not seen, Middle Eastern and European hopefuls, frantically worked behind the scene to make their presence known and their influence felt as their followers danced in the streets in advance of the hoped for cut and run in Iraq.

Street clowns and anarchists gleefully worked late into the night entertaining revelers hoisting golden calves chanting, "Change, change change."

THE CAST:

Soros is the highest ranking and most powerful god, the ruler of Mount Olympus, god of the sky.
alGore, together with Hades is one of the two next most senior gods, god of the sea, rivers and springs, floods and earthquakes.
Pelosi is the secret wife of Soros, the goddess Queen of the heavens and stars, of marriage and fidelity.
Michelle is the goddess of the fertile earth and agriculture. Her bounty sustains mankind.
Bill is the goddess of the hunt, animals, wilderness and the protector of young girls.
Biden is the god of prophesy, light, music, healing, disease and medicine and archery.
Hillary is the goddess of wisdom, the crafts (especially weaving, pottery and carpentry), inner beauty, education and defensive war.
Axelrod is the god of fire, workmanship, artisans and weaponry and the craftsman of the gods.
Hoyer is the god of offensive war and slaughter.
Spitzer is the goddess of love, sexuality, outer beauty and attraction.
Wright is the god of guidance, travelers, commerce, inventions, oratory, shepherds, consolation and reunions, athletics, patron of thieves, and messenger of the Gods.
Medea is the goddess of the home, family and the hearth.
Obama is the youngest of the Olympians, and the god of wine, vegetation, fertility and the theater. He alternates with Hestia in ancient lists of the twelve Olympians. Some scholars do not count Dionysus among the Olympian gods because though he is the son of Zeus, his mother was a mortal.

One unidentified man stood high above the crowd wildly fiddling and screaming, "Washington is burning."

Biden: Obama Has Cured Everything God Couldn't

And he has done it in just a few years which is a testament to Obama's power and intellect. Obama saved veterans, cured welfare and homelessness, why hell, you name it, Obama got it done. Ain't one sick person left in America. And the cured are now rich! And smart enough to vote for Obama!

Now Biden is doing the rhyming sing along schtick, leading the crowd as he trashes he "good friend" John McCain, saying America needs a wise leader not a good soldier. Back stabbing little creep. Typical.

Jabbering Joe is now saying he's heading to Georgia to rebuild what Russia destroyed while pointing out that Obama has always been right about Afghanistan and Iraq while his "good friend", John McCain, has always been wrong.

More about his "good friend", John McCain, "McCain was wrong; Obama was right." Biden must think he's doing a stem-winder in an empty union hall full of ghosts.

The entire speech was a traitorous spectacle of back stabbing a "good friend" with lies, half truths and political bullshit.

Biden is a low life. Lower than I thought.

Give praise!!!! The messiah just came out grab the spotlight. What a relief. I thought we might actually have to spend one more day without his magnificence.

Biden & Obama deserve each other. I do pray that we don't deserve them.

Bill Clinton Does As Expected

He lies.

The first black president did as expected as he spoke his first paragraphs at the DNC tonight by stabbing our current president, freedom and our country in the back by undermining all of our foreign and domestic policy which our enemies will highlight tonight, tomorrow and beyond.

After Hillary's speech last night and Bubba's speech tonight kissing Obama's butt and lying through their teeth about Barack, I think the only question is how much did it cost Obama. How much will it cost us?

Did you expect anything else from a Clinton?

UPDATE: Bubba just took credit for prosperity and peace for America citing that Republicans said he was too young and too inexperienced to be commander in chief as they are saying of Obama now saying what a great job the Clinton led party did and what a great job Obama will do. What a crock of crap. Clinton(s) damn near destroyed us and took credit for Republican efforts as his own. What do you expect from a Clinton?

UPDATE II: It is obvious that Hillary brought proof of a peace deal in the negotiations with Obama's people in her speech last night, tonight Bill publicly kissed Obama's butt and sealed the deal for whatever the Clinton's want. Yes, one would expect that of a Clinton. Wouldn't you?

Democrat Lie Machine Still Intact

I stole this complete from Tony the P, a good reporter and a good conservative. It might shock some to find that the "O" and clan aren't exactly speaking truth to power, but more lies to ambition. Hardly new to them.

FactCheck: Dems distort McCain record
If you've tuned in to the Democratic National Convention this week, you probably heard these lines:

* John McCain voted 90 percent with George Bush

* John McCain gets millions from oil companies

* John McCain is promising tax breaks for Big Oil

Sounds like you shouldn't vote for this guy, right? One slight problem. The Democrats are lying about McCain's record.

How far are the Democrats willing to stretch the truth? Barack Obama has received more contributions from the oil companies and their employees than John McCain has.

The Associated Press did one of its occasional FactCheck stories on the Democratic Party claims and found the party stretching the truth.

What Might Obama's White House Look Like?

Beats his brother's house.

Biblical Scholar Pelosi Blows It Again

Lost in the celebrity noise of the debacle in Denver is news of Institute of Notre Dame high school graduate, Nana Pelosi, once again stepping up to the plate to divulge her truth about religious matters.

First, Nana brought us that old Sunday School favorite:

“The Bible tells us in the Old Testament, 'To minister to the needs of God's creation is an act of worship. To ignore those needs is to dishonor the God who made us.' "

No word in which Sunday School she got it.

Now Nana is teaching the Church the errors of its teaching:

When Democrats decided they wouldn't let the GOP be "God's Only Party," they weren't kidding. Thanks to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, none other than St. Augustine has been summoned to Denver.

He was resurrected as Pelosi was trying to respond to the question that refuses to die: When does human life begin? This time, it was Tom Brokaw asking on Sunday's "Meet the Press." Citing Barack Obama's recent pass on a similar question—"At what point does a baby get human rights?"—Brokaw asked Pelosi what she would say to Obama were he to ask her advice.

Pelosi didn't finesse her answer, as Obama did when he said the question was above his pay grade, but she may wish she had.

"I would say that as an ardent, practicing Catholic, this is an issue that I have studied for a long time," Pelosi began. "And what I know is, over the centuries, the doctrines of the church have not been able to make that definition. . . . St. Augustine said at three months. We don't know. The point is, is that it shouldn't have an impact on a woman's right to choose. . . . I don't think anybody can tell you when life begins, human life begins."

I'm thinking there are going to be some people that will disagree. Like a Cardinal Egan:

STATEMENT OF HIS EMINENCE, EDWARD CARDINAL EGAN

CONCERNING REMARKS MADE BY THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Like many other citizens of this nation, I was shocked to learn that the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States of America would make the kind of statements that were made to Mr. Tom Brokaw of NBC-TV on Sunday, August 24, 2008. What the Speaker had to say about theologians and their positions regarding abortion was not only misinformed; it was also, and especially, utterly incredible in this day and age.

Go read the rest of Cardinal Egan's response at Thespis Journal.

Obama's Going Greek At Invesco Field

How tragic. Clinton's Lago to Obama's Othello?

We need a chorus, a trojan horse and a villan. No, Bill won't be there.

DNC's Second Ladies Happy Hour

It was part deux for the ladies at the DNC. Rolling out the happy crowd may not have won anybody over as they tended to shriek to be heard leading up to the real nominee, Hillary.

The Chippendales sent a Virginia sub to entertain the ladies in perennial Virginia candidate Mark Warner as he did a grotesque Kennedy-lite rendition of "how I saved the free world without lifting a finger, from Virginia". He never got around to that whole support thing for the messiah, as he focused on what he did as governor of Virginia. Did I mention that he is the former governor of Virginia. He also has bold teeth.

Oh, and Hillary did speak. About a stump or something.

The Crying Game

First the Hillary had her go. YouTube - Hillary Clinton Crying

Now Jabbering Joe is trying it for size. VIDEO: BIDEN CRIES...





Next up Michelle and Obama? Weeping hopelessly for [enter special interest group] as they all hold hands and gasp out a couple of verses of Kumbaya.

Nana Pelosi Out Of Her League & Desperate

Pelosi to protesters: "Can we drill your brains?"
House Democratic leaders and protesters waving McCain signs had a war of words Tuesday at a press event outside an old train station. The demonstrators interrupted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with chants of “Drill here! Drill now!”

Pelosi paused and asked the group, “Right here?”

Seeming to enjoy the back and forth, she followed with another question: “Can we drill your brains?”

She went on to refer to the protestors, who continued to chant sporadically, as “handmaidens of Big Oil.” Arguing that increased offshore drilling would only reduce gas prices two cents in 10 years, she referred to the demonstrators as the “two-cents-in-ten-years-crowd.”

Pelosi, speaking as if to children, hasn't a clue of what Americans want, only her agenda is important. I can hear her spouting, "If he jumped off a cliff, would you?", finishing with bogus "facts" about what would happen in her desperation to force her point.

Pelosi really is unfit to be Speaker.

AP's war in 4 words: Russia is always right

The Truth About Russia in Georgia

Michael J. Totten is writing what the AP and other likewise media outlets won't, the truth. The new Soviet Union must weaken those countries on its periphery if they cannot make them part of the new Soviet. Freedom is a pesky thing when people taste it, they like it and tend to not want to give it up.

The new Soviet Union doesn't like that and, it seems, neither does the mainstream media. It might just prove President George W. Bush and the United States right. That scares the hell out of them.

Read the rest of Totten's story for the truth and hit his pay jar, he is quickly becoming a national treasure.

The DNC Has Begun

This about sums things up.

Sabato Bumps VP Bump

Larry Sabato states that choosing a VP doesn't give a presidential candidate a bump in the polls, but history shows different.

VP choices yield favorable bump data say

Sabato does have a political agenda and with the choice of Jabbering Joe the message that must go out is that it is all about Obama and VPs don't really matter. Well, in Biden's case the VP slot does matter. BO's hope was an inroad to the Joe six pack vote, catholics and middle of the road Dems. I'm thinking 3 out 3 ain't bad except these are strikes. Swish, swish, swish.

The mouth that bored is a choice I can't figure out. I think Obama has nothing, but this is beyond a rookie mistake. Biden is a mistake of gigantic proportions. Biden's personal story is a wonderful story of family winning over tragedy and politics. Biden appears to have single handedly saved AMTRAK as he befriended conductors year after year, but is that a story that rings true with the voters when they're standing at the gas pump, in the grocery store, hugging their soldier goodbye or when they're filling out their tax forms?

Sabato is wrong here. Biden brings to the ticket about as much as salt to a wound. It may hurt good, but it doesn't make the patient happy or healed.

Drinking In America

I'll catch it for this.

MADD is mad. Over the edge, irrational and goal driven just as the hatchet swingers were last century as they chopped up bars. Mad, as in wacko. They have had the opposite effect of their desires as underage drinking is driven into the shadows and automobile backseats nationwide fueled by cheap booze illegally purchased and consumed. I'm with DAMM, Drunks Against Mad Mothers, since MADD has become not only anti-alcohol, but slave to federal enforcement of what should be a state issue, actually, should be a parental issue..

To me it is simple, if you are old enough to die for your country, you are old enough to drink an Old Fashion.

Racism Beats Obama & Other Liberal Crocks Of Crap

Racism is the only reason McCain might beat him.
What with the Bush legacy of reckless war and economic mismanagement, 2008 is a year that favors the generic Democratic candidate over the generic Republican one. Yet Barack Obama, with every natural and structural advantage in the presidential race, is running only neck-and-neck against John McCain, a sub-par Republican nominee with a list of liabilities longer than a Joe Biden monologue. Obama has built a crack political operation, raised record sums, and inspired millions with his eloquence and vision. McCain has struggled with a fractious campaign team, lacks clarity and discipline, and remains a stranger to charisma. Yet at the moment, the two of them appear to be tied. What gives?

If it makes you feel better, you can rationalize Obama's missing 10-point lead on the basis of Clintonite sulkiness, his slowness in responding to attacks, or the concern that Obama may be too handsome, brilliant, and cool to be elected. But let's be honest: If you break the numbers down, the reason Obama isn't ahead right now is that he trails badly among one group, older white voters. He does so for a simple reason: the color of his skin.

Here are some real simple reasons:
America doesn't trust him
America is seeing him as an empty suit
America doesn't like what they hear
America thinks his choice of friends, advisors & mentors is risky
America is a positive nation while liberalism is a negative force
America understands that he and his supporters aren't telling the truth

Some simple truths about this article:
Bush is not reckless about Iraq, he has been right
Bush has not mismanaged the economy, Congress has
Obama does not have every natural and structural advantage, just a thin veneer of charisma
McCain is not a sub par nominee with a "list of liabilities longer than a Joe Biden monologue"
McCain does not lack clarity & discipline, Obama does
Weisberg is a moron for saying Obama "may be too handsome, brilliant, and cool to be elected"

Obama may lose because of older white voters, but the only reason he is the nominee is because of black voters and liberal guilt-ridden voters.

I am sick of race in this election because I hear about it every day from Obama, blacks and liberals bringing up Obama's skin color because they are terrified that Obama may lose. He will and with their help.

Obama Wins Delaware

and gets years and years of the foreign policy expertise of Neil Kinnock who didn't think Margaret Thatcher won the Falklands War in the proper manner! In the hope for change category, Biden brings 35 years of get-along politics in a pork laden sty of corruption and back slapping.

Biden also brings a style of stem-winding stump speeches that absolutely wow listeners into a complacent stupor of magnificent support.

Now, onto the other 56 states.

UPDATE: Even though they didn't get the e-mail announcing the second annointment, kos and kids think:

This has been the best veep rollout EVER.

Obama's finest operation yet!!! Gush, gush, GUSH!

Dipping Into The Stink

I've enjoyed reading Progress Ohio. I haven't agreed with it, but it is usually interesting. Therefore it is sad to see that the minute Obama is being unmasked that PO has to get right down in the stink.

On the Blog Net Ohio roll PO has numerous stories about McCain's breakup with his first wife and marriage to Cindy highlighting it as an affair. He's probably never hear that Christians aren't sin free, just forgiven. Next he moves on to McCain's housing as that is the de jour liberal bitch, even Google earthing his properties.

Maybe PO might help us and Google earth BO's properties including the sweetheart patch in back for Michelle's veggie garden. While at it maybe he can mark on the map Ayer's bomb making facility, Farrakhan's secret armory (complete with steel bowties) and "Rev." Wright's AmeriKKKa. That about do it.

Woman Tells Russian General To Stuff It

A real woman, not some paper tiger spewing crap from their ivory tower, so let the left go nuts about how President Bush is saber rattling. He's not rattling sabers, Condi Rice is knocking heads.

"When you threaten Poland, you perhaps forget that it is not 1988," Rice said, according to The Associated Press. "It's 2008 and the United States has a ... firm treaty guarantee to defend Poland's territory as if it was the territory of the United States. So it's probably not wise to throw these threats around."

When and if Obama has something worth while to utter it is sure to be written by someone else. Maybe Chairman Short, aka Putin.
