Sen. John McCain, in his post-victory debut before the conservative movement's top donors and leaders, will address the Council for National Policy's annual winter meeting here today.

His remarks at the event, which has always been closed to the public and will have only a partial accommodation of the press this year for the first time, could turn out to be his make-or-break pitch for support from some of the right's most influential critics of his past positions and policies.

"This is the most distinguished collection of conservative leaders and donors, and he was anxious to appear as part of his ongoing effort to consolidate support for his candidacy within the conservative movement," said Charlie Black, Mr. McCain's campaign adviser.

Are there christian Vampires??? Jesus said " I am the way the truth and the LIGHT" WHY ARE RELIGIOUS PEOPLE AFRAID OF THE LIGHT IS IT BECAUSE THEY WANT TO SUCK THE LIFES BLOOD OUT OF THIS NATION (yelling because having a John the Baptist moment). Secret Societys need sunshine laws especially ones that influence policy and the whole nation. Again I ask ...ARE THERE christian VAMPIRES???

"This is the most distinguished collection of conservative leaders and donors....."

in other words the losers who attacked the wrong country with an insufficient army, made torture as American as apple pie and who have tanked the economy

Wow- I'd hate to see the regulars!

Highlights of McBush's speech:

My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, My Friends, we will stay in Iraq for another 100 years and we will Bomb every country in ME!

It worked for Bush!

And he didn't even have Hillary Clinton out campaigning for him! Can you imagine that?

He'll also likely be pandering to other secretive conservative societies, like the KKK and NAMBLA.

This is not lying, this is pure senility.


SNOW: Well, you"re absolutely right though, it"s going to be fun to see. Now John Kerry, is it true that John Kerry asked you to be his vice president?

McCAIN: Uh, no. No, it was never offered.

SNOW: It was never offered. So, it may have been discussed elliptically, but never flat out request.

McCAIN: Never was an offer, no.

They have to be secretive to prevent the peasants from discovering their plan to screw their workers, customers, creditors and stockholders

Sharper Image goes chapter 11

FISA ALERT! New cause for optimism???

The House has delayed voting on FISA until next week. There is an argument that this is a good sign. Please read:

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/3/6/122326/0124/368/470497

And take action come Monday.

Especially call Blue Dogs, many of whom are agitating for Telecom immunity.

And a report on Nancy Pelosi thinking like an idiot. Of all the parts of the Senate bill, there is only one part that is irreversible once passed, and that is retroactive immunity. Many other elements of the Senate bill are odious, but all could be reversed, especially assuming substantial gains for the Dems in Congress and a Dem president.

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/3/6/16164/73515/183/470690

Please place several calls on Monday. At minimum to: Pelosi, Hoyer, Conyers, and your congressman.

if they're so damned distinguished, how come they have to meet in private?

REALLY good point. Distinguished folks NEVER meet in private. Thanks for helping us all think though this one.

from bob dylan:

We live in a political world,
Love don't have any place.
We're living in times where men commit crimes
And crime don't have a face

We live in a political world,
Icicles hanging down,
Wedding bells ring and angels sing,
clouds cover up the ground.

We live in a political world,
Wisdom is thrown into jail,
It rots in a cell, is misguided as hell
Leaving no one to pick up a trail.

We live in a political world
Where mercy walks the plank,
Life is in mirrors, death disappears
Up the steps into the nearest bank.

We live in a political world
Where courage is a thing of the past
Houses are haunted, children are unwanted
The next day could be your last.

We live in a political world.
The one we can see and can feel
But there's no one to check, it's all a stacked deck,
We all know for sure that it's real.

We live in a political world
In the cities of lonesome fear,
Little by little you turn in the middle
But you're never why you're here.

We live in a political world
Under the microscope,
You can travel anywhere and hang yourself there
You always got more than enough rope.

We live in a political world
Turning and a'thrashing about,
As soon as you're awake, you're trained to take
What looks like the easy way out.

We live in a political world
Where peace is not welcome at all,
It's turned away from the door to wander some more
Or put up against the wall.

We live in apolitical world
Everything is hers or his,
Climb into the frame and shout God's name
But you're never sure what it is.
