Is Bush sabotaging McCain?
It’s starting to look that way. McCain’s “strength” is supposedly Foreign Policy. It’s all he has. So why is Bush undermining the Republican nominee’s platform? McCain says no timeline. Bush says “Time Horizon”. McCain calls Obama an appeaser. Bush begins talks with Iran. And just for fun, since McCain is trying to woo Hillary voters… […]
How did we get here…
And where are we heading? Americans live shorter lives than citizens of almost every other developed nation, according to a report from several US charities. The report found that the US ranked 42nd in the world for life expectancy despite spending more on health care per person than any other country More US babies die […]
Estate Tax is to Death Tax as…
Contractor is to Mercenary. Guess Mercenary/Soldier of Fortune doesn’t sound patriotic enough anymore. Maybe Republicans should try their favorite “change the name” trick with John McCain. Maybe they could start calling him… Ronald Reagan.
McCain Attended Zero Afghanistan Hearings
Zero? How embarrassing. It turns out that presumptive Republican nominee Sen. John McCain, has attended even fewer Afghanistan-related Senate hearings over the past two years than Obama’s one. Which is a nice way of saying, McCain, R-Ariz., the top Republican on the Senate Armed Service Committee, has attended zero of his committee’s six hearings on […]
Delaware’s Hottest Blogger – Boxers, Briefs or G-Strings
Now that I have your undivided attention… For the last few months I have sat on the sidelines watching this fight play out, but now that there’s money on the table it’s time to add the feminine mystique into the mix. Having met the three main contenders I feel comfortable, and not the least bit […]
Stop your Whining! It’s all in your head!
Think McCain and crew feel your pain? In an interview with the Washington Times, McCain’s top economic adviser Phil Gramm tells America to suck it up and stop complaining about the economy: “You’ve heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession,” he said, noting that growth has held up at about 1 percent despite […]
Iran Test-Fires Missiles
A few weeks ago I wrote about a knot tightening in my stomach. Well, its now moved into my throat. TEHRAN, Iran — Iran test-fired nine long- and medium-range missiles Wednesday during war games that officials said aimed to show the country can retaliate against any U.S. and Israeli attack, state television reported. Gen. Hossein […]
Guns at Airports and Disney?
Is the NRA for real? Are airports and Disney World really the best places to wage their 2nd Amendment rights battle? Personally, as an advocate for gun control, I couldn’t have picked better locations. I’m a thinkin’ this tack is gonna backfire on the NRA big time.
A Blast from the Past
For the last few months I’ve been experiencing a strong sense of déjà vu; a feeling that we’ve been here, done that. The curious thing about this sensation is that it’s not limited to one party or one candidate. Now the obvious example is John McCain and his – and everyone who dares utter his […]
I’m getting a bad feeling
For the last few months a knot has been tightening in my stomach. The idea that Bush/Cheney will leave the White House quietly is well… absurd. I am fully expecting them to go out with a bang. How big of a bang is anyone’s guess… One big enough to tie the next President’s hands while […]
Lieberman’s just desserts
It’s about time. Lieberman is nothing more than a sour grapes traitor. (Too strong?) Words cannot express how much I dislike this guy. So if you’re looking for something to do… this petition is worth your time. Will Lieberman’s love affair with McCain lead to his own demise? (God, I hope so!)
