McCain Has Zero Plan to Get Us Out of Mess President Bush Has Created

The war BUSH created? My good man, you aided and abetted the effort when you voted to give the village idiot war powers. Were it not for that, you would be my first choice for VP on the Obama ticket. What was wrong with all of you dems the day you voted for war with Iraq anyway?? I knew Bush was full of shit and I live way out here in the rural hinterlands. First order of business for empires is to settle up with old enemies...didn't the dems think for a second that Saddam Hussein was a little too convenient target? Some of us who had no inside knowledge saw through BushCo's story. I expected better from you. posted 05/16/2008 at 01:39:09

Obama Campaign Launches "Vote For Change" Voter Registration Drive

That's the argument Hillary will make at the DNC. I can hear it now: if Cletus and Clem don't get their preferred candidate, they'll vote for McCain. But don't be too sure. I know a lot of non-college graduates and they all hate Hillary. Trouble is, they feel the same about Obama. They are republicans. posted 05/10/2008 at 17:25:40

Lear on the Heath

I saw Obama's unfortunate tendency to apologize instead of standing up for himself when his closet smoking came out. He could have saved himself by saying: "Yes, I smoke. Smoking is LEGAL if you're over 21, in case you don't know. And, by the way, tobacco brings much needed revenue to places like NC , VA, and WV where the soil is too rocky and bare of nutrients to grow anything else."

That approach was honest and would have won him votes from the same rural whites who are attacking him now.

If when the sermons were first thrust out into the media, if Obama had simply stuck up for Reverend Wright's God-Given American Right to speak his mind, he would not be in this position now. Obviously, his pastor feels slighted by Obama's earlier distancing effort, and so he is lashing out at an old friend who he thought would defend him more.

What is really despicable is knowing that someone from Hillary's staff sat at the computer for HOURS at the church's website clicking and searching for something the Reverend said that could be used to smear Obama. Now, that is a disgusting pastime. Someone whose job it is to look for shit to smear. posted 04/29/2008 at 18:19:59

Why Jeremiah Wright Is Willing To Destroy Barack Obama; This Campaign Really Is Generational

The filthy rich have messed up this country for generations to come. I feel sorry for any candidate, republican or democrat, who takes the reins now. Whoever is elected will get the blame for the fallout from Bush policies, and don't you believe for one minute that things have gotten as bad as they will get. Obama would be better off martyredas the black guy whose niomination was stolen by Hillary than to gain the white house and be spun out as the source of all things bad. Even if he wins, he will lose.

I'm voting for Obama anyway, but I see how badly the deck is stacked against him. posted 04/29/2008 at 14:05:58

What you say about cell phones is true and completely fixable. A few weeks ago, a parent of a 13 yo girl told me he was sick of his kid handing him $400. cell phone bills. I told him about the Tracfone- it's a pay as you go phone where you pay in advance for the minutes your kid needs. When the minutes are used up, the phone is dead until you buy more. My 13 yo gets $20. worth of minutes every three months and she does not waste them on text messages or calls to AI. posted 04/25/2008 at 00:02:22

Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Howard Dean May Intervene In Dem Primary

If this is true, then why did Rush Limbaugh urge his fans to switch affiliations and vote for HILLARY? I don't put it past the republicans to monkey with the democratic process, but this account has it backwards. Unless you doubt that that Rove and Limbaugh would conspire to cheat the rest of us of a fair election. Those fatboys have each other on speed dial and you know it. posted 04/24/2008 at 17:45:07
The rephrasing lost the word NOT. It took me aback as well. It should read: "(Pelosi) has repeatedly suggested that superdelegates should NOT overturn the will of primary voters, a position that sits well with the Obama camp."

The inaccurate paraphrase should sit well with the Hillary camp. They are the ones who are aching to overturn the will of the voters, and if they have to hobble Obama in the process, so be it. If they smear him enough, McCain will get a free pass to victory and Hillary will be shameless enough to claim it proves she was the most electable against McCain all along! I will vote on every other office and abstain on the presidential vote if she steals it. This country has reaped enough bad karma from stolen elections, thank you. posted 04/24/2008 at 17:30:41

ABC Debate: High Ratings, Critics Give Broadcast Poor Reviews

I missed the debate but my sis called me at 10pm and she was FURIOUS about the debate. She was-- past tense-- a Clinton supporter but after seeing George Stephanopolous, of all people, moderating it and she says the camera kept cutting to Chelsea in a fricking spotlight while Obama's family was shown in the shadows convinced her the whole thing was rigged for Hillary. Thanks to George S, she probably had the questions in advance, too. Hillary lost at least one vote last night and I'm sure she lost many more than that. posted 04/17/2008 at 19:56:34

Obama Bin Laden?

I was in high school during the Watergate trials. I really didn't understand the scandal, but I knew those guys were unrepentant liars with their "I can't recall" evasions on the stand and I felt outrage that they would flaunt the oath to tell the truth with such disdain while the whole country watched.

A scandal over a burglary ending with a presidential resignation and a pardon shamelessly executed by the handpicked successor. It was insulting, but it was at least satisfying to see Nixon explain his reasons for leaving office to the citizens. But, oh how the times have changed. If Nixon had known what they could get away with today! posted 04/16/2008 at 10:08:48

I keep waiting for that message to be sent but I gave up in 2004, when Bush went right back into the White House. I will vote for Obama, in part because I cannot stand the other two contenders. But I won't hold my breath waiting for tangible action against Bushco. That said, I think if charges are brought, it will HAVE to be after the new pres takes office. Everyone knows Bush will just pardon anyone they manage to convict. And he'll pull a Nixon if his lawyers advise him to do so.

Wonder who he'd appoint to the presidency to do the job of pardoning him? posted 04/15/2008 at 16:43:56

Food Costs Rising Fastest in 17 Years

The Japanese save far more than Americans do, too. Currently, we are in the negative numbers. I've long said that we need an economic event along the lines of the Great Depression to get our financial houses in order, so the tight conditions many are facing now will not be an altogether bad thing. Artificially increasing one's standard of living by living on credit is a dangerous habit which we are only now waking up to realize. Unfortunately, our government has yet to see the light on creating sound fiscal policy. They're still talking the talk, though. posted 04/15/2008 at 22:36:27

Remember when Diddy Booosh had a photo op at a grocery store and went all aghast when he saw the checkout barcode reader? He kept pushing cans of beans across it going "beep, beep, beep...damn this is cool. How long have they been doing it this way?" (Answer: About 10 years)
